    @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

    @ImCadeYT @Steam You got a better deal because the Steam Machine isn’t reliable and has a lot of problems. The Deck, on the other hand, is reliable and portable to boot.

  • ShrimpInd

    Roll The Bones launch update: we have to delay the launch due to an unresolved issue on @Steam and the fact that @Steam_Support hasn't responded to us for 10 days. Not sure about the delay, I hope it's just an hour or two, but unfortunately @valvesoftware is unresponsive.

  • PoshIndie

    @Zoroarts @Steam The problem here is "Your expected playtime" is not "Their expected playtime", and dishonest developers will pad those numbers just to erase the possibility of refunds on short games. The best solution is to just make the game longer, unfortunately. Everything else is abusable.

    @flatspritehits @QNDZYcom @Steam Thats because steam doesnt own the game either, once a game is unavailable or shut down steam can only issue you a refund out of their pocket, they cant charge the developer. The main reason is not because they want to keep you money, but because bots buy shut down games to scam

    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

    @Steam I was needing assistance with my steam deck, unsure how to fix an issue I am having with it.

  • the_jonin_
    Sunkanmi Fafowora (@the_jonin_) reported

    That's why @Steam still remains the best company out there, and it's not even close. Their customer service is literally unbeatable at this point. Still saw the recent news of the refund based on the fact that the gamer was cheated in a way after many hours of playthrough.

    @Zoroarts @Steam if your game can be finished in 2h its not a game you should add more content then you dont have this problem

  • SILVERDEIMONSBL
    silver Black (@SILVERDEIMONSBL) reported

    @Steam I have a question: when are you going to launch your own cloud gaming service? I would really love to be able to play the games I buy on my mobile phone, since I don't have a computer. I really miss having a cloud gaming option that lets me play on my phone without needing a PC.

    @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?

  • Gim_John_Un
    steviegnote (@Gim_John_Un) reported

    @Zoroarts @Krazerack @Steam I would brag too if I finished the game in less than 2 hours for free. Maybe that’s a developer and publisher issue, but also why I stay away from steam.

    @ZirraTGK That’s me in a nutshell. If not physically, I’ll be getting those games on @Steam. At least Steam has good customer service even though they also sell digital licenses (@GOGcom doesn’t really sell their games in my country sadly)

  • Machete_Paul_
    Machete Paul (@Machete_Paul_) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam I've put 5 hours into A Webbing Journey and most of that was before they added real stuff to do. Just ******* with the physics was entertaining enough to earn 3 hours from me. Sounds like a skill issue homie.

  • xQtiee
    Toe (@xQtiee) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam if your game is only worth 1 hour of playtime it deserves to get refunded. Make your game better so people want to invest more time and your problem goes away automatically.

  • 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

    @Steam One of the biggest online markets with millions of users needs a phone service. It’s ******* ridiculous I have to wait hours or days for a reply on a hacked account….. Especially accounts worth thousands.

    hey @valvesoftware @Steam don't tell me to reset my password just for you to deny my login. fix this **** QUICKLY (e84/87)

    @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

  • Aeyerlock
    🔞AeyerLock🔞 (Commission Open) 1/3 (@Aeyerlock) reported

    @_Lukaerd @Zoroarts @Steam i saw that as a problem but there would need to be an appeal process to prove that the developer implemented a scam. That or perhaps developers need to provide proof when and how the achievemnent is aquired and needs to be tested where it functions normally.

    @Maxim_Drw @Zoroarts @Steam "Its a ****** game, but fun" if you had fun, its not a ****** game. And if the game is ****, you cant have fun By that first sentence alone, you cant be taken serious and are part of the problem

  • willemt1981
    Willem (@willemt1981) reported

    @GamingCentral26 The subscription isn't the issue. It's ownership and recovery. Digital libraries only work if verified owners can regain access after a compromise. @Steam has shown this is possible for years.

  • pikachufrankie
    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.

  • gozfrt
    goz (@gozfrt) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam Anticonsumer ****** *** dev who lies about the numbers. Steams refund policy is the best and your slop of a game wont "fix" something that isnt broken. Next time make a effort to make the game longer than 1h 30mins
