Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
TradeMate (@urf10) reported@Zoroarts @Steam if your game can be finished in 2h its not a game you should add more content then you dont have this problem
-
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.
-
JuiceHaunter (@JuiceHaunter) reported@Zoroarts @Steam This is a dev problem. Not a steam problem. You could argue maybe $1 - $2 games can't be refunded... But if you actually developed a game that can be fully completed on 2hrs or less than what you have is a demo and you forgot the develop the full game.
-
Foresight20/20 (@Foresight20_20) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Lack of replay ability is the problem here, if your game is good people will keep it to replay it. Or make it longer, you will always find people that abuse the system but doesn't mean we should ruin it for everyone else.
-
Azrhenia (@Azrhenia) reportedHey @Steam Will you delete my account if I'm not login for 10 years?
-
Pryn Nea (@prynneahroth) reported@KazuoSergal @Zoroarts @Steam retard. this isnt a fix. imagine a cashier hands you a cookie and its delicious and you go "im not paying because it was too small'
-
わためろん (@watamelon23) reported@Maxim_Drw @Zoroarts @Steam The problem is that a lot of the time the ways devs add extra playtime to get over 2 hours is just by adding pointless padding. I'd rather just have the great 60 or 90 minute game instead of one that is made worse by padding. Thank you friend.
-
🚫👁️Reckless-Unicorn | Demitrieus Kahn (@RecklesUnicorn) reported@Zoroarts @Steam maybe the problem isnt STEAM MAYBE the problem is the amount of content in your game.... MAYBE if it had more gameplay people wouldnt be able to FINISH IT under refund time.... did you think about THAT
-
Caribouwu (@karibuwu) reported@Kijara42 @Zoroarts @Steam We aren't talking about valid returns here though. We're talking about people abusing the return system to get the game for free like the case in the screenshot. If this were a legitimate pricing problem, then reviews would reflect that and call it out as a bad value. (1/2)
-
🔞AeyerLock🔞 (Commission Open) 1/3 (@Aeyerlock) reported@_Lukaerd @Zoroarts @Steam i saw that as a problem but there would need to be an appeal process to prove that the developer implemented a scam. That or perhaps developers need to provide proof when and how the achievemnent is aquired and needs to be tested where it functions normally.
-
Shenkay (@shenkay) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Introduce more content extend the gameplay time, problem solved.
-
L9FRIENDLYSTYLE (@L9FRIENDLYSTYLE) reported@LiquidEffer @Zoroarts @Steam Do you typically spend your energy on the problems you have the power to solve or do you complain about issues out of your control publicly This guys spam refreshing his sea of thumbs up reviews and he saw a singular red one and posted this while ignoring ones with real issues
-
Vernon Black (@veerrn) reported@Steam any idea when going to address 🤔 this outage you have with customers
-
Jim Crain (@jcrain1991) reported@Britdissonance @Zoroarts @Steam Thanks for answering that yes you are a simpleton. The average person doesn't beat it in 2 hours. Thats what "average time to beat is 3-4 hours" means. If its a refund for not liking it. Fine. That's perfectly acceptable. Problem is...HE SAID THE GAME WAS GREAT IN THE REVIEW!
-
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.
-
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.
-
MetriusMD (@MetriusMD) reportedI never really had a problem with buying key codes on @KinguinNet until I ran into Pressure by @Chasing_Carrots developer is very bad on discord you can dm anyone it says to email them but the dev will not reply to any emails can't even leave a bad review #baddeveloper @Steam
-
Average Mortis Enjoyer (@MortisEnjoyer) reported@Daewolf @Zoroarts @Steam It is kinda scummy to refund a 5$ game if you enjoyed it, but still, that issue could have been completely avoided if the DLCs were part of the base game (which is lacking in content). A lot of people don't think 5$ is worth it for an hour long game
-
KasherAkasha (@AkebiAkira) reported@Indulgence82 @Zoroarts @Steam “Skill issue” Lowkey I think you should kill yourself
-
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?
-
**** Tuglick⛧ (@MuffTuglick) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Easy fix, Make a game with at minimum 5+ hours of gameplay. Make the game have replay value.
-
熨斗蘭(のしらん) (@Noshiran_game) reported@Steam_Support @Steam fix plz
-
Mona Roy (@Mona__Roy) reported@monteslu @Steam_Support @Steam that error sucks
-
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
-
illyasviel Von Einzbern (@Illyasviel404) reported@Zoroarts @Krazerack @Steam I hate people do that.. unless got issues game really bad i understand....or unplayable.. well some people abuse it ... this gonna be problem later
-
Witchmaster (@Witchmaster) reported@SurvivalGN @ConanExiles For me, the move to UE5 sounded like a bad move. While I do use @Steam to play this, I'm also on Linux which has had a history of issues running Unreal 5 content. I decided to try it out and it just would not run. I restored to the UE4 version frustrated.
-
Odoq (@TAW_Odoq) reported@Zoroarts @Steam seems like a sinple fix... have a steam achievement when you beat the game. If you get the achievement you can't refund the game...
-
steviegnote (@Gim_John_Un) reported@Zoroarts @Krazerack @Steam I would brag too if I finished the game in less than 2 hours for free. Maybe that’s a developer and publisher issue, but also why I stay away from steam.
-
Kiika (@IIKiikaII) reported@Steam FIX YOUR SERVERS PLEASE I CANT DOWNLOAD ANYTHING. CANT PLAY ANYTHING ONLINE. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT TO DO OR FIX THE SERVERS
-
CynoSideUp 🍳 (@LiquidEffer) reported@L9FRIENDLYSTYLE @Zoroarts @Steam > Two completely unrelated issues
