@Steam "It looks like you've been attempting a lot of purchases in the last few hours. Please wait a while before trying again." Reset user accounts - I can't purchase because your system crashes and then blames me for the issue :-)

Tried to reserve a Steam Deck at 10am on the dot. kept getting errors when trying to purchase. And now it just says I've been attempting a lot of purchases and need to wait... @Steam I understand the servers are overloaded. But its pretty frustrating after waiting all morning 🤨

@Jijarugen @Steam It has nothing to do with "preparing servers" there literally is no server that exists that would not break with this model. The problem is the model of "everyone just click buy at X time" as a release strategy for anything desirable.

@Steam so your store breaks during checkout saying Error Initializing, then it says 'looks like you've made a lot of purchases wait a few hours'. Get your **** together.

@Steam and @Steam_Support there's no point in letting people reserve off your website if the servers are going to crash the second they're open #problems #SteamDeck
