Loathinq | ♡ M ♡ (@ImLoathinq) reportedIs anyone having issues loading into Apex on Steam? I can't get passed the initializing stage. @PlayApex @Steam
-
Dennis (@mrdenn1s0) reported@xeokeri @Steam Well the error says otherwise. Person A is on Computer A, trying to open a game on Account X. Person B is on Computer B, already playing a game on Account X. Steam doesn't allow multiple persons playing different games on Account X on different devices at the same time.

johnny utah (@vinnychase1764) reported@Steam your support sucks. You won’t refund a game that has under 4 hours of play time. You see all the reviews. It’s broken.
-
Nyxbelle (@bb_minte) reported@Steam Fix your servers :((
-
Tappin (@t4ppin) reportedFix your game please add elo rollback for cheater games. The amount of cheaters is disgusting and your killing your game by allowing this to happen. Just played against two blatant hackers and lost -450 cause of it. @valvesoftware @Steam @CounterStrike

Mikodaud (@Mikodaud) reported@JagerBomba890 @ChibiReviews @Steam We migrate to the platforms that dont have this problem,you can stay and get goyslopped freely,i dont care.

الباز (@ALBAZ64) reported@Steam I can't create a Ubisoft Connect account — every attempt fails with "An error occurred while trying to send your request" — so I can't play the Ubisoft games I bought on Steam. Ubisoft has ignored my DM and public post since July 11. Am I eligible for refunds?
-
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (@StoicStoic13) reported@Steam I haven’t been able to sign in to steam and it’s pretty ridiculous there’s no way to talk to support
-
Michael Eskenasy (@ItsChefreyOS) reportedHey @Steam people…I’ve been saying this for weeks, your coordination is broken…
-
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.
-
BYYONI (@BYYONI1) reported@CombateMonero @Steam And yeah, judging by the fact that I received a template response, @Steam_Support has started using bots and AI to reply to developers... I got the same template rejection that barely answers my questions or relates to my problem.

Mona Roy (@Mona__Roy) reported@monteslu @Steam_Support @Steam that error sucks
-
Whiteevo6 (@White_Evo6) reported@PlayStation Change the laws so we own digital games, movies and music we purchase If you want a digital future then we own what we buy and can trade it just like a disc and you’re forced to provide this service otherwise you, @XBOX and @Steam can all go to hell
-
𝕮𝖗𝖎𝖘𝖒𝖚 (@crismu17) reported@ArmaPlatform @Steam Game still broken on Xbox 😭
-
❕ (@howlverine) reportedthanks @Steam for sending me the same paraphrased copy & paste that completely ignores my explanation AND questions for the 2nd time. i thought i would have a good experience with your support service cause of how people glaze it all the time but oh well

X|1MantisPhoenix (@1mantisphoenix) reportedSony should refund people that they take media away from, OR let them ultimately ∞ be able to access it like they paid for, when they bought it in the first place. Look at @Steam for good models of digital ownership. When a game leaves the store, it's no longer purchasable for new players. BUT< anyone that previously purchased that, can play it till they're sick of it. Blackouts will starve gamers, maybe even help them quit gaming... I doubt Sony is going to change their minds... but they can at least give 2TB/4TB nvme's for the prices they're going to expect in the future, and thanks to the size of games down the line too... There's too many sides to this to really bive one definitive solution or answer... but it should start with good online digital store etiquette to help counter the problem they're creating. Monopolies all suck. I hate publisher prices for my region on Steam, but Steam still lets me activate games that I get keys for outside of Steam. The grey market is my second home and steam is the platform to collect the achievements, the cards, the badges, etc. Thanks for that Gabe Newell

Chris (@no1089) reported@Steam and @FrameworkPuter 's 3rd parties being hacked days apart - exposing all my personal details is just great. Thank you both for your concern regarding the incident. I feel really valued as a customer. /s "Expect fake messages - email, SMS or phone - that mention your hardware order and appear to come from Steam, Valve or a delivery company. They may quote your address back to you to prove they're genuine. They may ask you to confirm a delivery, pay a small customs or redelivery fee, or sign in somewhere to “verify” your order. Treat all of them as fake."

Rogue Wolf (@Spi3000) reported@ImCadeYT @Steam Despite positivities from Steam Customer Service, Valve (from my experience) takes time for E-Mail or Support Ticket claims, usually a day's time. If you sent the E-Mail today, give it time. Until then grab every document you can, especially purchase information.

Vernon Black (@veerrn) reported@Steam any idea when going to address 🤔 this outage you have with customers

PaLM AI - $PALM (@palmaierc) reportedMajor Announcement - Fall 2026 This fall, our local AI harness that rivals everything else currently on the market, root, is going to be shipped as a software product over to @Steam. 1) Publishing the application on Steam will remove the need for a separate signature on the executable. 2) Steam has become the go-to for gaming & creativity related software tools, which goes hand-in-hand with root. 3) Wide accessibility. You acquire it once, and it is yours forever. The Steam Version will not support any cryptocurrency features and all sales revenue will be registered to the Web2 side of our business. It will also be restricted and controlled according to the Terms of Service of Steam and other agreements that the company may become liable to, including a refund policy. We will keep the community updated on the status of the publication. Expect it to happen within a few months. Thank you for your support.

BYYONI (@BYYONI1) reported@CombateMonero I Support already refused, giving a generic corporate response with information that doesn't relate to the problem. Now I've written to the support that handles festivals directly and I'm waiting for a response. Unfortunately, @Steam rarely cares about developers' problems.
-
NADIM_GS (@NADIM___GS) reported@ArmaPlatform @Steam when will the problems with Arma Reforger that occurred after update 1.7 be fixed? We can no longer play on mod servers. You've ruined the game! The servers are crashing and giving us a ping of 999, and then the internet connection drops completely. What happened to the game?
-

Manthos Lappas | ASTHENIA-GAMESCOM (@ManthosLappas) reported@Kakourakakou @stan_banatan @Steam I totally am fine with such negative reviews, so everyone knows. And we always look into such issues if they occur. And I find those logical, justified reviews that do help us.
