    This is a request/suggestion to @Steam @googledevs Please ask for your developer fees only after you have verified all the necessary documents. While steam us still alot better, google has a long running issue of verifying addresses essential eating your money for no reason.

    @Steam TBH: Task Bar Hero distributes unfair bans due to poor cloud implementation without proper explanation, obviously people are unhappy having 0 day(s) since last ban. Please force game developers to solve this issue. If they doubt their vibecoded detection code, unban *all*

    Found an issues with Steam VR when ether trying to load Steam VR or trying to load a VR Game. @Steam and/or @SteamVR would crash. I thougt it was my dying Hard Drive (because sometimes it causes issues) but no, the solution was to unplug my PS5 controller. IDK if its a issue in Steam or Steam VR given I haven't left my PS5 controller plugged in in a while. Also I'm using Linux (CachyOS) and the headset I'm using is the Quest 3 (sadly) @valvesoftware #Linux #VR #Gaming

    @Pirat_Nation @Steam @valvesoftware In an ideal world yes, but it's more to the effect of a grandfathered in aspect. Roughly 75% of everyone is there, other options are almost moot, as a cult following talks about convenance, and then complains about every aspects it creates. If one want's to be able to refund any game, expect that game to be 100 dollars, especially when purchasing it from a 3rd party store front. Don't mistake the issue. This is not a "Steam" issue, it's an informed consumer issue. So what Gabe Newell says is technically true, but the users are on auto pilot to the next fad, not proper investment. It is the consumer that makes Steam a "monopoly", not Steam/Valve itself. #StopKillingGames #DirectSupport #FundAllocation

    @ARCRaidersGame #ARCHEATRS Dear @Steam and @Xbox, why is ARC Raiders being sold for $40 when the cheating problem is ruining the experience for legitimate players? Consumers deserve better. Where is the accountability?

    @Steam @Steam_Support I need help, I can't sign into steam support to enter a ticket because I'm encountering a log in error. I attempted to change my password but have no gone over the attempts. Every PW change kicked me out to an error. Can't find any other way to contact

    @ToanChan_ @Steam yeah ive had this problem for awhile now, and they literally dont give a damn when you ask them why, just spout the usual nonsense about always looking for new ways to make things easier to do then not actually using any of the better methods to age verify...like you account age.

    @Steam @Steam_Support My computer was hacked because of the Wallpaper Engine app; they tried to steal my emails and there were suspicious login attempts. My Riot account was also stolen, and I am currently a victim of this situation. I need your help to resolve it.

    @UmbrellaFight I'd say Steam's only real issue is discovery, but this is a problem on every platform (and not just for games). I want to see new games, but it's kinda hard to find them. Imagine if @Steam and @X accounts could be linked so Twitter could show games similar to those I like.

    The Looter 👉 Wishlist on Steam! (@TacticalDogs) reported

    @PlayGameGen @Steam @DevGAMM At this point i feel like we are definitely leaning towards the first one. It's very easy to do a wrong move at a wrong time, but the player still has options to get out of trouble.

    @Steam What are you doing??? You allow soo many early access that many games become just scams! What is with this release a game and fix it later, the game industry is a disgrace!

    @ToanChan_ @Steam Debit card worked for me, It's highly possible that it only accepts credit cards in your region due to country laws and such. i'm in Canada and it accepted my debit card no problem.

    Went to @Steam to purchase @ParalivesGame which I’ve literally been so excited about but there’s an error when purchasing so Steam took my money, I still dont have the game & I have to wait 72 hours for the refund what the actual fck I’m so mad 😡

    @Retro__Machine @videogamedeals @Steam If Sony can’t be trusted with digital games your “physical” ones have little value. Your game shelf is a mix of broken day 1 releases, installers, and completely empty discs with download keys on them.

    @ToanChan_ @Steam Hear me out maybe don’t blame stream but blame your gov forcing steam to have to do this? I know a lot of people who use a debit card but clearly uk wont let steam use that to verify,they had face recognition and it was abused with ai n fake pics sooooo 🙃 blame the real issue

    @FortniteLinux All my support to @valvesoftware and @Steam, they aren't a monopoly, they just offer a better service that people prefer. All of these lawsuits are promoted by stupid competitors that are too lazy to make something better or at least good enough, they just want to ruin gaming.
