    Had the @NintendoAmerica #switch, @Steam and @CDPROJEKTRED #witcher cross save been fixed? I keep getting a steam login error, even though I’ve never logged into Steam.

  • hipsterp0tamus Tim Hoffman (@hipsterp0tamus) reported

    @EpicGames is there any way to transfer the games I bought on your platform over to my @Steam account? I mean my Epic account login is connected to my Steam account, and it seems like all your exclusives just get released on Steam anyway…

    @tomfortyeight @WarhorseStudios @Steam So yeah, this is some you problem. No one cares and cries out loud for them to take time and logical thinking just answers your questions. They dont need to show anything, and wont because its not ready. You clearly dont work in this industry at all because this is normal

  • LyssOrThat ✨Lyss✨ (@LyssOrThat) reported

    Hey @Steam I never got to view my 2022 replay before the new year and now when I try to it just says "sorry this account does not have any playtime this year." So since it's no longer 2022 I can't see it? Any fix for this?

  • MegRocks811 Meg ThongGurgles (@MegRocks811) reported

    @Steam I need to contact support but there is no email and the support page doesn't help my problem

  • ShayQ__ Shay🍀 (@ShayQ__) reported

    @ItsTikityBoo @Steam Aye bro if you just fix it it should work

  • GoblinCastle Lord Bailey (@GoblinCastle) reported

    @Steam #Steam Steamworks is so difficult to use that people have to turn to 3rd party resources. @valvesoftware you take a %30 cut so why make it even more difficult for me to use your service? Rebuild Steamworks to be Dev Friendly! [Upload Game] button, why not?

  • tvtvtv75002 Jeaninetv (@tvtvtv75002) reported

    @Steam Can you help me with a password issue, I've changed it a few times now but its always still wrong and I'm just going round in circles at this point, there's no contact us options, can anyone help?

  • SlasherOfGods Slasher0fGods (@SlasherOfGods) reported

    @Fleshly_Delight @Steam I am okay with the sandbox elements. It is actually what I like about the second game. In a zombie world and you decide your own story. The problem is that there is no content in terms of choices and activities that you can take. All the need to do is build up on the second game

    @Steam Oooh. This would be so cool to play on my Samsung tv on steam stream. Wait!... you didn't fix the app for a month. Low

  • Byron1c Troy Growden (@Byron1c) reported

    @Steam Steam Replay 2022 - What a joke - it doesn't even work... pointless. I just get an error "Sorry, this account does not have any playtime this year." I have over 216 hours just in the last month. All settings default/public. WTF?

    @Steam pls fix gg ez

  • MPGTBL ItsmeGibbsy (@MPGTBL) reported

    Had an issue after downloading a game with @Steam but was handled very well, refunded within the hour! Makes a nice change to have a hassle free resolution to an issue! 👌🏽

  • kanashiatisuto Kanashi Atisuto 🌱💕 (@kanashiatisuto) reported

    @CyberKevin_FR @GTsvetkovski @Steam ...which released on Steam in that year- games they got access to through Steam because they are Steam Users. So what you pointed out isn't a problem- you just have a different goal in mind. There is no point in asking people about games they probably don't have access to.

  • lREAPINGl Reaping (@lREAPINGl) reported

    @MeanieGuts @Steam Mines not working either

  • kanashiatisuto Kanashi Atisuto 🌱💕 (@kanashiatisuto) reported

    @CyberKevin_FR @GTsvetkovski @Steam ...Steam users about gamess they might not have access to so I don't see your problem with this. It's not Steam's goal or responsibility ro ask about all games. They don't want to determine what's the current best of the best put their but what players think about the games...

  • Keatrith Keatrith (@Keatrith) reported

    @SteamStatus @Steam Still can't login, I reset my password and it still says incorrect password and cannot log in on any computer.
