    @valvesoftware @Steam just a friendly tip for my favourite company of all time, due to the controller issue recently, limit the steam frame and machine 1 per household, and a similar process to the new controller protocol you just announced. To stop trolls. So we don’t miss out.

    @ChibiReviews People should be losing their **** over the fact that payment processors wouldn't dare touch a game this big that will drag their asses to court if they tried to deny service. Wish @Steam would step up for the games on it's platform too.

    @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

    All the piracy issue could've been solved if only you publish games on the @Steam platform. It's really not that hard, you'll gain a lot of loyal supporters if you switch to publishing more games on Steam. @valvesoftware solved this piracy issue before when no corporation did it.

    When are you planning to address the cheating issue in this game? We come in hoping for some peace and enjoyment, but we end up leaving with red marks of frustration. Please review the account I've submitted a ticket for! @Steam @Steam_Support @CounterStrike

    @valvesoftware @Steam I'm glad to hear you guys put some restrictions on the reservation. i hope the steam frame and machine have the same. to be clear i did get a controller during that first round, i could have used 2 but out of fairness i only ordered 1 to let others have a chance. while i literally waited "a min" before trying again i looked at X and saw everyone was having a problem and that spamming worked. i mean it wasn't just like clicking when the button reappeared, i spammed the hell outta that screen for like 10 min.

    @Pirat_Nation I love the @Steam support team. Out of all of them Steam support was always there to help and always found a solution to a problem no matter if it's hardware or software. The last time I had to contact Steam support was with a out of warranty Index Controller. They were out of stock at the time and I wanted to see how much they would charge to fix it. After some troubleshooting steps they offered to replace the controller for free (and this was around 2 to 3 months out of warranty). For me I'll buy from Valve before I buy from anyone else, I'm looking forward to the Steam Controller and Steam Frame. @valvesoftware

    @Steam I hope they're is someone who can help. I have used the password change method on the website, but when I go to login it still gives me a "wrong password" message. And also states that I have the steam authenticator app attached and I do not, at least I think I do not.

    @BeatSaber Worst case scenario: @Steam , @Steam_Support if whoever made Beat Saber have broken their game so it's unplayable on older hardware, how do I refund the gifter of the game?

    @Judokast @Smthingedgy @Steam There's problems with Steam. The review filter is a big one for me. They applied an off topic review bomb filter to a game that rightfully deserved it for censorship.

    Can someone please tell me how to deal with a @Steam update glitch? I've been stuck with one for @TheSims 4 for a while (probably on and off for most of the time since I last played in April 2023), so your help would be appreciated 🎮
