-
🚫👁️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
-
OrwellWasAnOptimist (@moltensnow) reported@Zoroarts @Steam >Makes a very short game with apparently 0 replayabilty. >People refund (their right) >Despite refunding (their right), they recommend & help the game >"StEaM pLeAsE sToP tHeM!1!!" You are the problem, bud.
-
Ryan Watson (@RyanPHPDev) reported@Randomuser22147 @Zoroarts @Steam Agreed. If we have to choose between a 2 hours no question money back on games vs you making a more comprehensive game that people are willing to want keep or play for more than 2 hours, I would say that you are the problem.
-
Bickle bork (@BickleKun) reported@Zoroarts @Steam fun fact if you were playing on Xbox, they don't charge you until 10 days before release Because you see when you do those refunds it cost you money. if only all you people were on XBOX so many of your problems wouldn't exist How about that
-
MR.SOLACE (@oopsallsolace) reported@Zoroarts @Steam There's a community behind this, where people challenge themselves to beat a game under the refund time. Make your game longer and this will not be an issue.
-
StockStackr (@VeganCatBounce) reportedThe actual problem is I got a new phone # and steam will not let me log in with a password, an email, they are forcing me to give that phone # I can not play war of rights because I refuse to let steam farm me. **** off @Steam
-
Drew Peacock (@En_Senada69) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Add 20 more minutes of content. Problem solved.
-
gfodor.id (@gfodor) reported@OlexGameDev @Zoroarts @Steam It’s a problem that people can use their system to play paid games to the end for free. It’s almost certainly a solvable problem, you’re just concluding that because you can’t think of a way to solve it without damaging the current environment that no solution is possible.
-
Aaron Li (@polymorpher) reported@Steam Minor issue: audio is choppy with Studio Display via HDMI - USB-C cable, hopefully it will be fixed with software updates / DP cable
-
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.
-
Toe (@xQtiee) reported@Zoroarts @Steam if your game is only worth 1 hour of playtime it deserves to get refunded. Make your game better so people want to invest more time and your problem goes away automatically.
-
VALIS Gaming (@SweeterPeter72) reported@Zoroarts @Steam So many problems on the Steam store could be solved by more human involvement, but this one doesn't even need it: Serial returners (5 a month?) get put on a warning. If they continue the excessive returns, they simply can't anymore.
-
CynoSideUp 🍳 (@LiquidEffer) reported@L9FRIENDLYSTYLE @Zoroarts @Steam > Two completely unrelated 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...
