    @Sheltyb803 @PlayStation @Steam You don't own any game bought digitally in Sony or Steam. You only own the license to play it thrugh Sony/Steam. They can close the service when they want. It is all in the TOS.

    @lotfgame @Steam Still waiting for you guys to fix the bugs that make this game unplayable, missing boss remembrances, uncompletable quests, missing segments of the map dont appreciate you working on a second game really and you deserve the hate your getting.

    Yep, after owning all Playstations since PSOne, and being a PS+ subscriber since the service started, I feel it is time for me to abandon console gaming moving to @Steam definitely.

    @0bscuratea @valvesoftware @Steam The problem is that for import purposes, this means a higher price than the DualSense, and it's not that competitive, even though it's pretty cool.

    @valvesoftware @Steam This controller is great for what it is, but the biggest problem it'll have is when the Steam Machine comes out & have to plug in a mic directly into the Steam Machine to talk since there's no headset jack. I might be dumb but this might make couch play harder for casual players.

    @valvesoftware @Steam Brazilian players want to buy Valve hardware officially, at a fair price, with proper support. We are not asking for magic. Just a legitimate way to buy the product without gambling with bureaucracy and warranty issues.

    @ukraine_world In @Steam , although Lvivska oblast is written correctly, but the city Lvov instead of Lviv. And when they comment, they are silent, but other users say that steam simply connected some international bases and they have a problem, because it is wrong there. @Steam_Support

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam It's your game, not their, and it's your launcher causing the problem. Nobody likes you and the reason is this kind of bullshit on top of your dogshit code

    @valvesoftware @Steam @valvesoftware you guys do grateful work but the scalpers have made the lanch of the steam controller impossible to buy. I hope there is solution/fix for the controller and for whenever you release the steam machine and the steam frame

  • 97skynet
    97skynet (@97skynet) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Added to cart at launch, but then nothing but error messages until a minute after launch when it showed out of stock. But at least the scalpers were able to get them. They are gong for $300 on eBay. Can’t say I’m surprised, just disappointed.

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam This is a problem Ubisoft created. Not Steams fault.

    @MatthewJPipoly @valvesoftware @Steam It wasn't sold out with that error. The servers were slammed. If you were smart, you would have kept hitting refresh until you got in.

    @Steam Hello Steam, I'm having a very annoying problem after updating my BIOS. This problem has become like a constant companion, never leaving me. I think it started after I formatted my computer and deleted the OneDrive files. I don't know what the solution is. Please help me because it's extremely bad. @Steam @Steam_Support

    @valvesoftware @Steam When will it be back in stock I tried like 20 times to purchase it and I kept getting an error. 😭

    @benheck @Steam You're not wrong. Yes, I'm fully aware of why Linux hasn't taken over. A major "problem" is bombarding potential users with too many choices (distro, partition scheme, filesystem, etc., etc., etc.) before they even get a login prompt.

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck I knew the controller would sell out fairly quick like but 30 mins is insane haha. Valves biggest problem is filling demand, that's a great problem lol

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck That is a broken system. Valve knows the base, how you not ganna make enough.... Wut.

    Torelethain (@torelethain) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Seriously guys, why did you not roll this out like the Deck to prevent scalpers? You already had this problem solved. Big disappointment, guess I'll have to wait now.

    @lndexium I launch through steam and my hours are wildly off. Steam constantly lowers my hours on games. I crossed 400 hours on KSP at least 30 times over the course of a month. In reality I should have well over 500 if not 600 or more by now. @Steam playtime is absolutely broken. I have this issue with every game on steam
