Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Psykatomique productions (@Psykatomique) reported@Zoroarts @Steam At this point, if you sell a game that is less than 2 hour... the gamer is not the problem here... We have more and more games on steam, i would rather have half and more consistent.
-
Joseph (@Josephshandle) reported@Steam I was needing assistance with my steam deck, unsure how to fix an issue I am having with it.
-
Kellanisverycool (@Kellanisvcool) reported@Zoroarts @Steam lol make a game longer than 2 hours dumbass. I can't believe that's an actual issue you're having.
-
Caribouwu (@karibuwu) reported@Kijara42 @Zoroarts @Steam We aren't talking about valid returns here though. We're talking about people abusing the return system to get the game for free like the case in the screenshot. If this were a legitimate pricing problem, then reviews would reflect that and call it out as a bad value. (1/2)

Aaron Li (@polymorpher) reported@Steam Minor issue: audio is choppy with Studio Display via HDMI - USB-C cable, hopefully it will be fixed with software updates / DP cable
-
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.

Cørey (@coreyVMG) reportedFix your **** @Steam
-
JuiceHaunter (@JuiceHaunter) reported@Zoroarts @Steam This is a dev problem. Not a steam problem. You could argue maybe $1 - $2 games can't be refunded... But if you actually developed a game that can be fully completed on 2hrs or less than what you have is a demo and you forgot the develop the full game.
-
Nekked Molerat (@nekkedmolerat) reported@Zoroarts @Steam The problem isn't Steams refund policy.
-
kate! ΘΔ (@SeedVEVO) reportedthis is still broken, @valvesoftware @steam please fix <3
-
Pankaj Indoria (@PankajIndoria1) reported@SteamSupport I'm unable to sign in to my Steam acc. After trying several times, I now receive an "Exceeded" error and can't access my account in the Steam client or browser.This issue is affecting my work. Please look into this as soon as possible. #Steam #SteamSupport @Steam
-
Xoey (@Xoey80239413) reported@Zoroarts @Steam The problem is there are a million reasons to refund plenty of games hours and hours into playing them, and two hours is the lowest they can make it practically. Honestly I think it should be 10-20 hours, and isn't because people could do that with Call of Duty.
-
Isaac Clarke (@IsaacClarkeFNaF) reported@Zoroarts @Steam For short games, it should me made that the 70 or 80 or 90% "achievement" milestone makes the game unrefundable "because of the 2 hours limit". It should be refundable only if broken or if it's a scam.
-
drakkillen (@drakkillen) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Whats the issue? Its working just as it should
-
pikachufrankie (@pikachufrankie) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Portal 1 is roughly a little over an hour long, yet has never had this issue. Limbo is only a few hours long, and also never had this issue. You can make short games that people won’t want to refund. If people are mass refunding your game, it’s because it isn’t worth the price.
-
L9FRIENDLYSTYLE (@L9FRIENDLYSTYLE) reported@LiquidEffer @Zoroarts @Steam He has the solution at his fingertips yet you and others are here encouraging him to sit on his *** and do nothing about it and wait for the force he has no control over to fix his problem
-
Jyn (@Mr_Clutchweg) reported@Cloy006 @Zoroarts @Steam "Only people that found it to easy refunded it". Screenshot shows "GREAT GAME" and refunded. The problem is that people are getting pushed to try refunds like these because of some speedrunners beating difficult games in under 2 hours and refunding them. That works with big
-
✨Yutami✨ - Comms Open! (@ArtbyYutami) reported@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.
-
Yawen (@YawenCh69) reported@Jess_TheVampire @Zoroarts @Steam 604,775 a year. Money isn’t a problem. Can you guys not make up any other argument? You guys are genuinely coping
-
Mikey B (@TheUPSboy) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Sounds like a you problem
-
tramstalker (@tramstalker) reported@SlavetotheCaff1 @Zoroarts @Steam brain issue - not every game is 20 hours (neither should be), steam should change it's refund policy for shorter games
-
M.Safwan (@MSafwan14479038) reported@Steam_Support I have lost my login ID. The @Steam ID is not connected to anyone, i.e. my phone. I remember my gmail but I still can't access the software. I can't play games. Please help me @Steam_Support
-
Mona Roy (@Mona__Roy) reported@monteslu @Steam_Support @Steam that error sucks
-
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
-
John (@TheCassiniGames) reported@Steam Fix your servers bro 😭
-
Marokano (@Marokano8888) reported@Zoroarts @Steam That's not a Steam issue, people are just pieces of ****, also you could make game a little longer.
-
Marc (@marcs125) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Sorry, but respectfully you are the problem. You knew the policy Steam had and released a low value product (low playtime/cost) so you should have expected this. The platform shouldn't cater to you when you create the situation. Make a better product or just accept it.
-
Girl GPT (@NyaGPT) reported@Steam @Steamworks @STRATO_hilft please unblock our game's server we have this outage cause you guys failed to check reported content I will send a link to the entire site part of the hosting for the rest it was nothing but a game server and a steam game server of a MMORPG
-
no one (@dimipossum) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Dont make games under 2 hours, if you cant its not my Problem. I refund
-
Cezary Kruszewski (@CezaryKruszews1) reported@KagutsuchiHeika @Pirat_Nation Actually issue is with @Steam as it was clearly stated by them that accounts cannot be passed on.
