Steam Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
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.
-
Thiz (17-3 2x SUPERBOWL CHAMPS) (@Thizlam87) reported@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.
-
Cloy (@Cloy006) reported@Mr_Clutchweg @Zoroarts @Steam "The problem is that people are getting pushed to try refunds like these because of some speedrunners beating difficult games in under 2 hours and refunding them." People like this wouldntve even tried the game if they didnt see speedrunners play it, there was no will to keep it
-
MultiEnding Heroes OUT NOW! 🇦🇷 (@NicoDiti) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Add a 3 hours ending cutscene like Kojima and no more problems.
-
Karunas👑 (@karunasexe) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Sounds like a you problem
-
𝐁𝐒𝐏𝟑 (@RealBSP3) reported@Zoroarts @Steam They might be falling under some play requirement limit. Maybe that limit is two hours. I've returned two games. I played both for half an hour, and realized one was broken, and the other departed too far from a franchise I loved to keep playing.
-
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
-
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...
-
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
-
Girl GPT (@NyaGPT) reported@Steam @Steamworks @STRATO_hilft please unblock our game's server we have this outage cause you guys failed to check reported content I will send a link to the entire site part of the hosting for the rest it was nothing but a game server and a steam game server of a MMORPG
-
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.
-
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.
-
DarkDesertFox (@DarkDesertFox) reported@Zoroarts @Steam People are completely missing the point of your post. The problem with a good system is people will always abuse it and ruin it for others. The fact that they are refunding your game which is only a few dollars shows how much they take advantage of it. We can't have short games?
-
Jarad The Sovereign (@bestabyssdad) reported@Zoroarts @Steam cry about it honestly, your niche issue is not going to get in the way of a very good refund policy. make a better game.
-
🚫👁️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
