🏴Obscure outpost podcast🐦 (@Obscure_Outpost) reported@ItzPuddleJumper @Steam Worth a try if can use it there might might be recovery menu or something, I don't own a steamdeck but I'm good at trouble shooting things.
-
AJ 🐦 aka SuperSaiyan4 (@OmegaSaiyanX) reportedI have gone many years (more than 3yrs) not going on my @Steam account and you know what? I never lost any game or service that I had paid for. They are still there! Eat that @Sony @PlayStation
-
Mike Steel 💵🥩🥃 (@mike_steel_) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Skill issue. Make your game last 3 hours.
-
Ets (@ets_vn) reported@Steam please how do I get in touch with your support. I cannot login into my account as it has been stolen and I cannot reset my password. I have tried everything on the support websites but no success please help.
-
cracinlac (@burnme121107) reported@Chriss_m @Zoroarts @Steam do you watch a movie and then demand your money back because it was only an hour and a half long? and clearly the quality of the game isnt a problem because people are literally saying they enjoyed it but still refunding it. its bad for the developer who is a person with needs
-
Dani boy (@Daniboy07dani) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Who gives a ****? Take your bullshit and get out of here steam has the best refund policy and the best customer service of all gaming and you want to ruin it because people do a any% speed run of a indie game? Get tf out of here with that
-
Mike. No, the other one. (@WeezSays) reportedAbsolute Trash behavior. A Completely unacceptable Gamer trend. Unfortunately, this is never going to stop. It isn't worth it to publish a sub 2 hour game on @Steam until they fix this loophole.
-
Artofmusic (@ArttomusicYay) reported@Zoroarts @Steam You have 1 level what do you expect.... make a longer game can't expect everyone to play for an hour and keep it. Come on its not steams issue.. I have been making games for over 26 years alone. Can't complain if someone beats it in the 2 hours. Thats on you not @Steam
-
AllahingMutant (@AllahingMutant) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Skill issue. Your game is the equivalent of a fat chick that puts out on the first date and is a lousy lay on top of that. If people aren't coming back for seconds, that's on you.

♡🇳🇴🐞🛠️Toy🪀♡|She♀️|🌸🏳️⚧️|rants bout etc~| (@AshleyToy_Real) reportedNeed to do smt @RockstarGames have issue with L.A Noir en on @Steam
-
Flirtypurplederg (@DatpurpledergAD) reportedHello @valvesoftware @Steam got an error with firefox ESR version when trying too look at a game review: Error Reference: Store_10901820_325a607b0ded8bd2 URL.parse is not a function Is it possible to check? Thanks have a nice day.
-
Rodead (@ProgramRodead) reported@Pirat_Nation good for them, still not removing it from my ignore list. which admittedly still doesn't mean much as @Steam's store page is still broken. fix your store damn it! @Steam_Support
-
𝕮𝖗𝖎𝖘𝖒𝖚 (@crismu17) reported@ArmaPlatform @Steam Game still broken on Xbox 😭
-
Zehlia (@ZehliaGaming) reported@Maxim_Drw @Zoroarts @Steam "Its a ****** game, but fun" if you had fun, its not a ****** game. And if the game is ****, you cant have fun By that first sentence alone, you cant be taken serious and are part of the problem
-
Xenos (Ambassador Of Indie Games) (@WrenchOfChaos) reported@PotatoCrispDip @Steam I agree that's on them for submitting a short game and acting surprised when they happened, you really just shouldn't submit a short game to Steam in it's current state if you don't want returns, but that doesn't mean it's still a problem that Steam should (and can) fix.
-
meow 🪓 (@kitcatexe) reported@WhiteHouse @Steam @Steam_Support just so you guys know sometimes the lag is worse trust and pls help i need to feed my slimes
-
Sammy Snivels (@john_baker7) reported@flatspritehits @QNDZYcom @Steam Thats because steam doesnt own the game either, once a game is unavailable or shut down steam can only issue you a refund out of their pocket, they cant charge the developer. The main reason is not because they want to keep you money, but because bots buy shut down games to scam
-
Yuushia (@vongacayan) reported@Steam STOP BEING *** AND LET ME LOGIN TO MY ACCOUNT WITH THE PC I'VE BEEN USING FOR A YEAR NOW THIS STEAM GUARD THING IS MORE LIKE A STEAM JAIL
-
Ḛ̴͓̹̫͈̤͈̿́͝ļ̶̖͋͒̉͂̽̃́̈́̽͛l̸͓̬̦̫̩̄͛̾̈́́͑̉͒̈̈́̐͘͝a̵̍ (@m_Crom_m) reported@prestonjbyrne my twitter 12 (2014) creating an account at 6 makes me 18? my google account is older I watched a minecraft video and it said "hold up a minute!! were not sure how old you are" like **** you don't know @Google b!tches. 22 years @Steam long service badge and they want my id too
-
Bob Cross (@Odenwoodnlaser) reported@Steam why is your site infected with a phiishing file? Why is your login system and support system not working? Why has this been going on for over a week.
-
Whiteshadow (@whiteshadow_001) reported@ArtemR @Steam People have stated issues with the overall thermals being very poor
-
TheUKDude (@PaulKirby36) reported@Steam Whats up with your platform? Its down for us all and the issue is not due to update Tuesdays. So any update when it will be back up?
-
N'Tsuki Tia (@NTsuki_Tia) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Look, I undertand how it's a problem for you, and a seriously one, but, don't be that person, is not a nice posture to take. Steam refunds used to allow a longer time, them were reduced to 4 hours, and now 2, it sucks people still being able to abuse that, but many games (1/2)
-
NightBlueLion 🦅🦁🌻 (@NightBlueLion) reported@Howard_Lovy cc @pensandpoison might want to pick up on this. Remember how you stated literature was entirely taken over by the libs? Yeahhhh, this is another huge symptom of that. How is there not a @Steam - like service for creative works, such as literature, webcomics, etc.?
-
Sunkanmi Fafowora (@the_jonin_) reportedThat's why @Steam still remains the best company out there, and it's not even close. Their customer service is literally unbeatable at this point. Still saw the recent news of the refund based on the fact that the gamer was cheated in a way after many hours of playthrough.
-
Macanthony Okhidievbie-Alfred (@Macanthony13764) reported@Steam Steam has gotten it back for me very goated Customer service
-
Turbopumpkin (@Turbopumpkin1) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Good games don't have this issue
-
👾アイリーン👾 (@Ladybug_bu) reported🫵😡 @grok @Steam @Steam_Support I made an account on EA App and another on Steam — everything went super smooth and easy. But on Steam I’ve got a problem: it won’t let me log into my account, saying I need to close my mom’s session, even though hers is already closed. I’m not sure if the issue is because I’m using my mom’s PC. When I try to log in on Steam from my phone, it says the password is invalid 😩🔒. I’ve already changed it three times through Steam Help Center and still nothing.
-
Xenos (Ambassador Of Indie Games) (@WrenchOfChaos) reported@plzbnicetome @Steam Yeah I did that for a long time with Nintendo and it sucked, I ended up with lots of games I ended up not liking, lots of wasted money, and steam actually let's you return games you don't like. Very weird how you want service to be WORSE. I don't EXPECT them to, they LET ME.
-
Levi Benoit (@lildeviousdude) reported@Steam @Steam_Support Steam is inaccessible in the profile selection screen without a mouse. Can you guys fix this? I can use spacebar AND enter to select the options bar and even remove the account, but I can’t sign in. Actual L right here
