    @ChibiReviews People should be losing their **** over the fact that payment processors wouldn't dare touch a game this big that will drag their asses to court if they tried to deny service. Wish @Steam would step up for the games on it's platform too.

    @Steam I changed the password for the 3rd time but it's still not working.

    @Steam please help, this is terrible. Your login recovery is trash, I'm locked out for very stupid reasons. Then I started a new account to work around, and I was immediately locked out on the new account.

    @Moonie__OS @Steam You have a problem with this but not Furry Hitler 1 & 2?

    @Judokast @Smthingedgy @Steam There's problems with Steam. The review filter is a big one for me. They applied an off topic review bomb filter to a game that rightfully deserved it for censorship.

    @Moonie__OS @Steam Hey @Steam fix this ****. Now.

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck Lmao.. It had that error due to server overload.. FROM DEMAND.. You should've clicked more bud.

    @Moonie__OS @Steam this looks like a fun game what’s the problem?

  • wolfybbad
    Steward (@wolfybbad) reported

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck You just had to keep clicking continue. There was a bajillion users all trying to buy at the same time, no system can handle that its basically a DDoS attack lol.

  • MikeTriceratops
    Michael (@MikeTriceratops) reported

    @smith_rust @valvesoftware @Steam Anybody that actually pays them those prices and rewards them for their scummy selfish behavior is only perpetuating the issue and encouraging them to continue scalping. Out of principle, I will wait however long I need to in order to purchase directly from Valve.

  • NicromeRetra
    Nicrome Retra (@NicromeRetra) reported

    @xritsken @NakiVT @Steam It's a big part of the gameplay and you can do way more then just whip people to get them to work. Other examples is Palworld where pals are treated as slaves and can be butchered. It's ridiculous to say the whipping that is the only problem. Remove the whipping and it's fine?

    @ThisOldGuy3 @Steam @grok I've never played. Is it good? I need a good game to fix my brain.

    @luvk8e @Moonie__OS @Steam The only reason you would have a problem with it is if you’re a traitor.

    @Steam @discord @Windows The CLOSEST thing I got to it working the way I want, is by launching steam or discord via powershell. Which half works (does for Discord). But I launch steam by right-clicking on the icon and selecting 'Friends' so the friends list appears. Which the powershell thing doesnt fix.

    @valvesoftware @Steam Unable to buy due to errors for 20+ minutes, then it sold out. Crazy.

    @Blaziken1500 @Steam This has only happened to a small amount of controllers as they said, i can't tell how many controllers are affected by this, but as to what i looks like(for me) its a issue from GLS and not even Steam. My Steam Deck Oled had arrived in 3-4 days back when it released.

  • Injuryyuy
    Hellothere (@Injuryyuy) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Yeah I'm not happy with Valve right now. I was there right on time. Every time I tried to push payment through the page gave a weird error. Next thing you know I check and it's sold out. They need to figure some sort of system out to fight off the bots to make it more fair.

  • Sapien_Voice

    @Steam So fed up, having to log into those UNNECESSARY gaming-platforms (even f offliners)! Let's look at the consumer-perspective: you are forced into being monitored and exploited! I remember much better user-service as long as developer/publishers managed servicing all by themselves.

    @WeArePlayground go **** yourselfs useless ***** @Steam **** ***** aswell had major problems trying get on fh6 now fixed it all and new problem stuck loading then error message tryed everything **** you I want a refund now !!

  • KlassischeMann
    Klassischer Mann (@KlassischeMann) reported

    @MatthewJPipoly @valvesoftware @Steam It wasn't sold out with that error. The servers were slammed. If you were smart, you would have kept hitting refresh until you got in.

  • MildMillenialUS
    MildMillenial (@MildMillenialUS) reported

    @painmute @Moonie__OS @Steam There is the problem.

  • excitedpixels
    Jeremy Wood (@excitedpixels) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support do you have a random shipment generator for orders as it seems you are shipping the steam controllers randomly. I ordered at 57 just before, and my wife's at 18 past because you were broken for her. It's Def not in any kind of order which seems unfair. :(

  • olafkswg
    olafkswg - Buying Skins 95% (@olafkswg) reported

    Is this a planned change with no announcement or a bug? Broken trade history suggests the other, @Steam support can't answer this question.
