    @TimSweeneyEpic @EpicGames @Steam Yes, we can buy games on Steam using Visa and Mastercard. Also, providers like nsave now fully support Syria. But on Epic, we can't even claim free games. we can browse the store fine, but the actual checkout/claim process just errors out every time.

  • King18Anime

    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

    @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.

  • RenkiFloof
    Renki, The floof that stare at your paws. (@RenkiFloof) reported

    Hey @Steam , Could you please fix your ****? I"m tired to have friend trying/wanting to gift a game, but due to region, or them being overseas, they just can't freaking do it. YET.. I CAN do and send gift to them, make it make a dang sense. Literally can't get games from friends.

    @EGOSOFT @Steam @GOGcom And all that is lost builds, progression, etc. Thanks a lot. I wish you fix this by leaving the older version behind so we can play. Also, I wish you had expanded the save files to unlimited!!! Also, I wish you guys would break up the mods into their individual saves.

  • AUTTENBURGH
    ライアン ☄︎ (@AUTTENBURGH) reported

    He said he would trade me the difference, but before he could return home to do it, the owner of the trading bot account said his trading bot was suspended instantly, like there is no logic in this and the system is broken, i even told @Steam to look at my trade history as proof.

  • se7hix
    Sethix (@se7hix) reported

    So, additional work ahead of @Steam and @Steam_Support ahead regarding all software in their store, because if they are providing malware they will have serious trouble, this has happened before and if it continues happening valve is showing that's a platform no longer safe.

    @PedroAntunes999 @Steam @Steam_Support Sorry to hear you're having trouble accessing your account. Do you still have access to the original email address associated with the account?

    @rvmpvq3 @CantAiim @Steam the problem is, you shouldn't NEED to use these workarounds considering that the games are still 20 dollars on sale

    I’ve struggle bussed with all kinds of support from companies in this last year. Incompetent support, slow support, non-existent support… Had an issue with my Steam Deck and @Steam solved it in about two hours. If the world gotta get run by big corps, I’d choose Steam.

    Patrick (@Judokast) reported

    @Smthingedgy I've never once had a problem with @Steam . From refunds to technical problems whatever and do you know what other company I can say that about these days? NONE, the ******* answer is NONE! Gabe fulfilled the social contract. He gave us what we need and want, he gets a yacht.

    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 Gaben is the best and we love Steam but it'd be VERY unfortunate for this to be a problem when I've spent well over a thousand dollars on Steam over the past 15 years.
