-
how to talk to your dog about doomscrolling (@theangrylisas) reported@GabeNewell @valvesoftware @Steam DoD:S was probably my favorite game ever. The leaked source has a bug in it. The overhead achievement loop breaks on the first unlocked badge, meaning anyone who gets them all is locked to the rifleman badge. Give me repo access and I’ll fix it.

cracinlac (@burnme121107) reported@Chriss_m @Zoroarts @Steam do you watch a movie and then demand your money back because it was only an hour and a half long? and clearly the quality of the game isnt a problem because people are literally saying they enjoyed it but still refunding it. its bad for the developer who is a person with needs
-
Foot Lettuce (@FootLettusplay) reported@Steam put a disc drive in the next steam machine??? I guarantee the games that make the money would have no issues releasing physical.
-
JustAGamer (@JustAGamer929) reported@Steam you need to figure out your download speed throttling. I have fiber and just cannot use it for your games. Battlenet doesn’t have this issue. The same 38 gig update there finished in 12 minutes. Yours took an hour. Unacceptable
-
Xenos (Ambassador Of Indie Games) (@WrenchOfChaos) reported@PotatoCrispDip @Steam I agree that's on them for submitting a short game and acting surprised when they happened, you really just shouldn't submit a short game to Steam in it's current state if you don't want returns, but that doesn't mean it's still a problem that Steam should (and can) fix.

Gordon G. Hicks Jr. 🔞 (@Gordon_GHIII) reported@Steam if my vanish worked both the Dragon Ball Z fighter games would be the best with a few issues in the 2D where it becomes like an FTK fighter. they blame me for their mechanics.
-
Sam Pritchard (@sdp2012uk) reportedHey @WARDOGS I have been given the test play version on @Steam but once it’s installed I’ve tried to launch the game and it shows a login error saying I’m not authorised to use it, how can I fix this please? #Help

Ḛ̴͓̹̫͈̤͈̿́͝ļ̶̖͋͒̉͂̽̃́̈́̽͛l̸͓̬̦̫̩̄͛̾̈́́͑̉͒̈̈́̐͘͝a̵̍ (@m_Crom_m) reported@prestonjbyrne my twitter 12 (2014) creating an account at 6 makes me 18? my google account is older I watched a minecraft video and it said "hold up a minute!! were not sure how old you are" like **** you don't know @Google b!tches. 22 years @Steam long service badge and they want my id too

Cogglesz (@ColinEspMusic) reported@Tardgrde @ImCadeYT @Steam Be careful buddy. Seriously. I noticed with the controllers my reservation was due November 26' So guess what? I've already got it in my hands, a week ago i checked the controller page again to see if my reservation was still active and it literally told me i had 2 days left to buy the thing or i'll lose my (Nov 26') reservation. You'd think, They'd email people who got pushed ahead yeah? No..Not one pop up, not one email telling me the controller was available for purchase. If it wasn't for me wanting to check my status on the controllers store page i'd have lost my reservation and been screwed into 2027. I'm absolutely positive this is happening with the hardware too. I put in a purchase request the same day they announced the steam controllers on the store page (and influencers already had reviews up day 1) So, Not only did i have to spend money prior to when i wanted to? I'm sure there are people who live paycheque to paycheque that can't just spend $100 on a whim. They didn't even notify me with an email or in-steam UI pop ups which they should do for things like this. I really advise everyone checks their hardware orders daily on steam or at least emails about reservations, it's the only way to prevent reservations slipping through our hands because we take a break or are too busy IRL. I've been with valve since 2007 and even bought the V1 controller & Steam Link back in 2015. The quality of service has severely been hampered by Valve selling these things on their own storefront which didn't give me a heads up at all. Be careful!!!!

John (@TheCassiniGames) reported@Steam Fix your servers bro 😭

Humberto Camarillo (@humbertoc_13) reported@gameunlocked26 I can't not even open the game at all on my PC, @Steam please fix the issue
-
johnny utah (@vinnychase1764) reported@Steam your support sucks. You won’t refund a game that has under 4 hours of play time. You see all the reviews. It’s broken.
-
Xenos (Ambassador Of Indie Games) (@WrenchOfChaos) reported@PotatoCrispDip @Steam The problem is that you can return any game through steam within 2 weeks and played under 2 hours, and many devs who have made critically acclaimed but very short games have made this same complaint about people beating & returning the game. It's a a problem steam needs to fix
-
RedBeardedJoe (@RedBeardedJoe) reported@Mikeparkerz @Zoroarts @Steam The issue is thought if you drag it out for too long and people notice no thought into it or its the same as before people go im done anyways you didnt add anything of Value to it too extend it so we should have a Smallish game Refund system and the 2 hour limit one
-
Yuushia (@vongacayan) reported@Steam STOP BEING *** AND LET ME LOGIN TO MY ACCOUNT WITH THE PC I'VE BEEN USING FOR A YEAR NOW THIS STEAM GUARD THING IS MORE LIKE A STEAM JAIL
-
Utkarsh Sai Sidhardh K (@Utkarsh_sai_K) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam I’ve purchased quite a few games through Steam and have supported many Ubisoft titles over the years. Gaming is something I rarely get time for, and I usually only play when I have a longer period to properly relax. That’s why this situation has been particularly overwhelming and disappointing. I currently can’t access games I’ve paid for, and it has also made me hesitant to purchase any more Ubisoft titles until this issue is resolved. I genuinely hope someone can help me get this sorted.
-
AJ 🐦 aka SuperSaiyan4 (@OmegaSaiyanX) reportedI have gone many years (more than 3yrs) not going on my @Steam account and you know what? I never lost any game or service that I had paid for. They are still there! Eat that @Sony @PlayStation
-
Slave to the Caffeine (@SlavetotheCaff1) reported@SmashUltimateB1 @Zoroarts @Steam It's the easiest way to address the problem. I didn't and wouldn't do it but steam isn't going to budge
-
Dilshad Subramanian (@imdilshad03) reported@Steam my steam ID had suddenly lost all my friends list. It shows 0. Is there any way to fix it ? ID: dilshad003
-
Gaurav Kakaria (@kakaria) reportedI am not able to sign in to my steam account even after changing my password 3 times successfully. And there is no option to reach out to steam for issue on the website. It only leads to same landing page for changing the password. @Steam @Steam_Support

♡🇳🇴🐞🛠️Toy🪀♡|She♀️|🌸🏳️⚧️|rants bout etc~| (@AshleyToy_Real) reportedNeed to do smt @RockstarGames have issue with L.A Noir en on @Steam
-
Dani (@sqronce) reported@Zoroarts @nieyter19 @Steam Some would believe evidence, and some wouldn’t. Receipts help with claims. While you’re trying to prove claims, I’m still waiting on evidence of all the reviews boasting of refunding after completing in under 2 hours, showing that this form of refund was a wide spread issue.
-
JohnnyHelldiver (@hiles_johnathan) reportedOi @Steam can’t login or view friends list or games list on the app or the desktop app
-
TheSoloWolf (@TheSoloWolf7) reported@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

ARKS Angel (@arks_angel) reported@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?
-
⚜️Braithwate⚜️ (@Braithwate_PSG) reported@Steam Plz fix this **** fast
-
RickTrajan (@RickTrajan) reported@gaersstapa @Zoroarts @Steam The problem with this mindset is it encourages prolonging a game rather than doing what it's meant to do (telling a story, good multiplayer setup, or whatever a game you want it to be). It's like word count on essays, vehicles being predominantly suvs and trucks in US, etc.

Barry ******* Berkman (@tylenoldoe) reported@Steam resolved my issue in like 3 hours on a Sunday I love you
-
silver Black (@SILVERDEIMONSBL) reported@Steam I have a question: when are you going to launch your own cloud gaming service? I would really love to be able to play the games I buy on my mobile phone, since I don't have a computer. I really miss having a cloud gaming option that lets me play on my phone without needing a PC.
-
Sunkanmi Fafowora (@the_jonin_) reportedThat's why @Steam still remains the best company out there, and it's not even close. Their customer service is literally unbeatable at this point. Still saw the recent news of the refund based on the fact that the gamer was cheated in a way after many hours of playthrough.
