    @Lenovo if you don't hurry on the patch for your bios update, 100% of @Steam user can take you to small claims court if they allow data tracking for their Lenovo legion go's. And I never agreed to your terms of service on steam OS 3.8(non existent) That's $2230CAD MSRP... Idiots

    @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.

    @ItzPuddleJumper @Steam Steam deck uses steam os which uses arch Linux as a base,Arch is a cutting edge rolling operating system so updates can break it usually they put the fix for it on archs website.

    @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.

    Loving my new Steam Controller, to be honest. A wireless controller that doesn't have lag on my computer is amazing. Maybe I just got bad ones before now? What were your wireless device headaches? @Steam #steamcontroller

    @Steam I understand security but I will not digit code press your captchas. I guess I can't play War of Rights cause you are more intersted in farming my data than providing me a service?

    @UbisoftSupport @Steam I’ve purchased quite a few games through Steam and have supported many Ubisoft titles over the years. Gaming is something I rarely get time for, and I usually only play when I have a longer period to properly relax. That’s why this situation has been particularly overwhelming and disappointing. I currently can’t access games I’ve paid for, and it has also made me hesitant to purchase any more Ubisoft titles until this issue is resolved. I genuinely hope someone can help me get this sorted.

    🫵😡 @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.

    @Tardgrde @ImCadeYT @Steam Be careful buddy. Seriously. I noticed with the controllers my reservation was due November 26' So guess what? I've already got it in my hands, a week ago i checked the controller page again to see if my reservation was still active and it literally told me i had 2 days left to buy the thing or i'll lose my (Nov 26') reservation. You'd think, They'd email people who got pushed ahead yeah? No..Not one pop up, not one email telling me the controller was available for purchase. If it wasn't for me wanting to check my status on the controllers store page i'd have lost my reservation and been screwed into 2027. I'm absolutely positive this is happening with the hardware too. I put in a purchase request the same day they announced the steam controllers on the store page (and influencers already had reviews up day 1) So, Not only did i have to spend money prior to when i wanted to? I'm sure there are people who live paycheque to paycheque that can't just spend $100 on a whim. They didn't even notify me with an email or in-steam UI pop ups which they should do for things like this. I really advise everyone checks their hardware orders daily on steam or at least emails about reservations, it's the only way to prevent reservations slipping through our hands because we take a break or are too busy IRL. I've been with valve since 2007 and even bought the V1 controller & Steam Link back in 2015. The quality of service has severely been hampered by Valve selling these things on their own storefront which didn't give me a heads up at all. Be careful!!!!

    @Zoroarts @Steam adding more content to the game so people would not refund it after playing this once. This is entirely on you, but i would't be surprised if you are an industrial plant just to attack Steam over thing that isn't broken. Learn some accountability for your bad actions, don't

  • Indieanos
    Indieanos Gaming (@Indieanos) reported

    A serious issue especially for indie developers that @Steam needs to take seriously into consideration. If the player finishes the game, should he have the right to refund it? On the other hand, if this change is made and the game is short on purpose, the player is not protected.

  • WrenchOfChaos
    Xenos (Ambassador Of Indie Games) (@WrenchOfChaos) reported

    @PotatoCrispDip @Steam The problem is that you can return any game through steam within 2 weeks and played under 2 hours, and many devs who have made critically acclaimed but very short games have made this same complaint about people beating & returning the game. It's a a problem steam needs to fix

    @Zoroarts @Steam I am so sorry this happened and Im glad that person commented as a way for you to see your game isnt the issue, even if they are part of the problem. I hope they change this for smaller games.
