    @EGOSOFT @Steam @GOGcom I just went to the weapons control panel on a builder ship and the game ******* crashed. The worst part I deleted one of my save games and still there are errors.

    @Moonie__OS @Steam - Big hit reg issue causing you to hit slaves by accident - Lots of micro at the start - No mechanics explanation but not too hard to figure out - Needs more lore and house staff - Needs slaves of different races with different buffs - Cost $1 which is not bad but lacks content

    @Smthingedgy I've never once had a problem with @Steam . From refunds to technical problems whatever and do you know what other company I can say that about these days? NONE, the ******* answer is NONE! Gabe fulfilled the social contract. He gave us what we need and want, he gets a yacht.

    @EA @Steam probably should have extended refund period if this is a known issue.

    My night is going so well tonight… @Steam : “You need to change your password because it’s the one we set for you.” Me: resets password Steam: “that’s not the right password” Me: *goes through the “forgotten password” dialogue* Steam: “Too many login attempts. Try again later”🙃

    @Steam @Steam_Support Message from Javokhir's agent and manager : Javokhir didn't get banned, he's not cheating nor anything, He just has a problem with his inventory, and we know steam support could be slow, so he wanted to use his X account as he knows some cs2 people follow him

    @foxgirlfrot @squishygaypaws @Steam Send steam support that screenshot its probably just a glitch.

    @EGOSOFT @Steam @GOGcom I picked untested explorer. I travel to my first star gate. no mods Get halfway to the gate and crash!!! I am flying it manually!!! Yep and it ******* happens again!!!

    @UmbrellaFight I'd say Steam's only real issue is discovery, but this is a problem on every platform (and not just for games). I want to see new games, but it's kinda hard to find them. Imagine if @Steam and @X accounts could be linked so Twitter could show games similar to those I like.

    @HayyanCodes @EpicGames @Steam Can you make purchases in Syria on Steam? Are any international digital stores in Syria restored? We have unblocked access since the sanctions were lifted, but haven’t found a payment service provider that offers service directly for Syria.

    @Steam @CounterStrike bruh i sold a skin for 0.34 cents to buy some stickers and it's on hold for 2 days? fix your system.

  • wengo314
    yoshi314 (@wengo314) reported

    @obakepam @Steam i have a problem with this. you can have a game that was prototyped with ai or ai was used for some minute details. and you can have lazily made game that's really lazy ai slop. and both would fall under this umbrella.

    Hi @Steam @valvesoftware I have this problem on steam chat through webbrowser with Firefox ESR if I click an emoji, could be some javascript problem: Error Reference: undefined_undefined_07dd045a704c2fa6 D.showPopover is not a function idk if you can fix. Thanks.

    The Looter 👉 Wishlist on Steam! (@TacticalDogs) reported

    @PlayGameGen @Steam @DevGAMM At this point i feel like we are definitely leaning towards the first one. It's very easy to do a wrong move at a wrong time, but the player still has options to get out of trouble.

    @NoMansSky Got some good issues going on with MP with this update Sean if even @PlayStation is talking days longer than normal to accept this patch. Can’t even play with my friends who are on @Steam. When will you guys learn to fix your game fully. MP issues and problems for yrs upon yrs

    Can someone please tell me how to deal with a @Steam update glitch? I've been stuck with one for @TheSims 4 for a while (probably on and off for most of the time since I last played in April 2023), so your help would be appreciated 🎮

    @LPNintendoITA @Pirat_Nation @Steam They did for their Launcher. Problem is the game uses a third party launcher and Account so Ea Can do it.

    @DDoubleLumbar @MoistCr1TiKaL @Steam That’s a huge red flag. Forcing browser links without consent? That's crossing a line. It’s not just annoying—it’s a trust issue. Developers need to prioritize user privacy or risk losing players. Who thought this was a good idea?

  • SirSlender
    SirSlender🎩🧐 (@SirSlender) reported

    @obakepam @Steam Dare one wonder why the quality of a finished game suddenly becomes irrelevant the moment one learns a tool was used? If the only difference between enjoyment and disdain is knowledge of AI involvement, the issue was never the game.

    @2_left_thumbs @JohnTit11284680 @Steam i ran into problem of some games not running well because they turned out to be made on unreal engine or unity. i dont have issues with 2D unity games, but a lot of 3D ones run very poorly. i think most other people dislike certain for proper reasons too.

    @valvesoftware @Steam This is a ****** service! I reserved one minute past 10 pacific and I’ve been waiting 15 days for a chance to buy it! I could understand if I took my time reserving! Valve you need to do better!

    @CounterStrike gonna have to explain to me why I'm banned for 24 hours because my power surged and couldn't connect back in time.. @Steam and your dumbass suggestion saying troubleshoots problems before playing is retarded..

    I was trying to release the update now and this has happened! Basically, had an issue where my phone broke, have a temporary one for now. Now @Steam have apparently blocked me from releasing it for 72 hours due to the new phone! 😭 I have sent a message, hopefully we can get this resolved! #IndieDev #GameDev
