    @Zoroarts @Steam You made a 4 dollar rage bait game about paddling with your friend you can beat under 2 hours without even trying to. Of course people are gonna refund it, you're not gonna keep an empty burger wrap after eating the bruger. Problem is with the game, not the system.

    Hello @Steam, I bought Sunset Overdrive and Undertale today, but an error occured through my purchase when I bought it. The money was deducted from my card but the Steam app said that the purchase failed due to an incorrect address. I had to redo my purchase for it to work.

    @Zoroarts @Steam Skill issue. Your game is the equivalent of a fat chick that puts out on the first date and is a lousy lay on top of that. If people aren't coming back for seconds, that's on you.

    @Zoroarts @Steam I don’t think they should fix the refund policy I think a way to combat This is make your game longer make your game worth keeping with updates I do agree this is a **** thing to do but steam has a really good refund policy that helps the customer over the company, which is good

    🫵😡 @grok @Steam @Steam_Support I made an account on EA App and another on Steam — everything went super smooth and easy. But on Steam I’ve got a problem: it won’t let me log into my account, saying I need to close my mom’s session, even though hers is already closed. I’m not sure if the issue is because I’m using my mom’s PC. When I try to log in on Steam from my phone, it says the password is invalid 😩🔒. I’ve already changed it three times through Steam Help Center and still nothing.

    @Zoroarts @Steam I think the fix to this is to not make a game that is under 2 hours long. Steam shouldn’t change the 2 hour limit for refunds, I personally think it should be 3 hours.

  • VirilethDerg
    Virileth (@VirilethDerg) reported

    @Ain_Macdougal @Zoroarts @Steam You just can't have a refund policy unless it's broken, defective, or not as advertised. Sure people will ***** about no refunds, but that's only because they want to steal. We don't have the kind of high trust society needed to allow for refunds.

    Useless (@mustafa27007713) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam i dont see this as steam fault,2 hours is such a good time window to experience a game especially if its a big pvp paid game (see marathon). now its for sure annoying for people to refund you even tho they loved your game but thats more of people issue then steam issue.

    @Zoroarts @Steam Good games don't have this issue

    @Zoroarts @Steam The problem isn't Steams refund policy.

  • TheUPSboy
    Mikey B (@TheUPSboy) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam Sounds like a you problem

  • Indieanos
    Indieanos Gaming (@Indieanos) reported

    A serious issue especially for indie developers that @Steam needs to take seriously into consideration. If the player finishes the game, should he have the right to refund it? On the other hand, if this change is made and the game is short on purpose, the player is not protected.

  • Berneirffxiv
    Bernier. ARCHIVE (@Berneirffxiv) reported

    @Steam_Support you really are the GOAT. @Steam usally pulls though. so many years and any problem they do their best. Even if it did not work out they go above and beyond .

  • galaxygash
    Apex Autist (@galaxygash) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam absolutely no problem. I'm sorry if that caused/causes you any issues, if anyone cites it or makes the claim, tag me and ill clarify I was mistaken and why.

  • Shedewff1

    @Zoroarts @Steam make a game worth keeping after people finish it idk this is NOT a common problem

  • TheCassiniGames

    @Steam Fix your servers bro 😭

  • ProgramRodead
    Rodead (@ProgramRodead) reported

    @Pirat_Nation good for them, still not removing it from my ignore list. which admittedly still doesn't mean much as @Steam's store page is still broken. fix your store damn it! @Steam_Support

    @L9FRIENDLYSTYLE @Zoroarts @Steam > Two completely unrelated issues

    @LiquidEffer @Zoroarts @Steam He has the solution at his fingertips yet you and others are here encouraging him to sit on his *** and do nothing about it and wait for the force he has no control over to fix his problem

  • ArtbyYutami
    ✨Yutami✨ - Comms Open! (@ArtbyYutami) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam I am so sorry this happened and Im glad that person commented as a way for you to see your game isnt the issue, even if they are part of the problem. I hope they change this for smaller games.

  • YawenCh69
    Yawen (@YawenCh69) reported

    @Vetrix22 @Zoroarts @Steam $1 for an hour of fun? Yeah- that’s a good deal. No one said games like that are at risk here. I haven’t done that to an indie developer- that’s cruel. Games like MiSide are fun. Worth the money. Not gonna refund. (Although it was beaten in like an hour) Games that charge AAA title prices that end in under an hour or two is unacceptable- I will refund. I’ve done it before and I’ll do it again with a cute smile. Money isn’t the problem- the principal of the situation is.

    @Steam you want to spam in the background, but when I go to log in to my account you have been spoofin, now we have a password issues? you pukes!

    @Steam is everything okay? First I was having issues downloading from the Chicago CDN, and now getting a bad gateway error when viewing my wishlist?

  • willemt1981
    Willem (@willemt1981) reported

    @GamingCentral26 The subscription isn't the issue. It's ownership and recovery. Digital libraries only work if verified owners can regain access after a compromise. @Steam has shown this is possible for years.

  • Odenwoodnlaser
    Bob Cross (@Odenwoodnlaser) reported

    @Steam why is your site infected with a phiishing file? Why is your login system and support system not working? Why has this been going on for over a week.

  • nogal909
    Kamina (@nogal909) reported

    @TheWarTank_YT @Zoroarts @Steam Yeah, if they feel what they paid was too much and they're in time for a refund I'd have 0 problems, since I respect my consumers (I'm a dev btw and 0 problems with this).

  • ShadowC5
    Shadow C | 🍔Arbiter🍕 🌭of🥪 🌮Sandwiches🌯 (@ShadowC5) reported

    @WastingSanity @Zoroarts @Steam But that would be a problem for certain genre of games, no? For example, certain puzzle genres are fundamentally not replayable, especially if the idea/solution to the puzzle requires planning and thought - and not merely some random generation.

    @lemorion1224 when you gonna fix lobbys? i cant play with my @Steam friends

  • Kellanisvcool

    @Zoroarts @Steam lol make a game longer than 2 hours dumbass. I can't believe that's an actual issue you're having.

  • zynnachin
    Zynner (@zynnachin) reported

    @Shinogi_Trench @BasedBickle @Steam Wow, the game has some glaring issues that it takes playtime to figure out? Because they didn’t adequately playtest it? And I don’t get to speak about it? You are a spiritual slave
