  @__Amber_Lynn_ @ToanChan_ @Steam it’s uk law, sites with adult content require age verification. there’s been pushback about facial scans and id scans so some some sites have opted for credit cards. problem is credit isn’t as popular over here, i don’t have one either, means ur locked out of 18+ games

  Lets be real here @valvesoftware has no ***** in this @Steam should be treating the Steam Deck as a loss leader. You're not beholden to investors every quarter. You can afford to eat some margin and make hardware that actually moves the market. Where's the $299 Steam Deck? Where's the $499 Steam Machine? You really think people wouldn't jump on that in a heartbeat? Gaming hardware prices are so messed up right now that Valve could practically own the budget market if it had the nerve to try. @valvesoftware fix it.

  EA games are just so bad! The jankie game save setup between @EA and @Steam means your only ever one game crash away from a wiped save file and start over. 🤦 Been racing my son on NFS Heat. Was just leveling up to his level now back to level 1. Ruuuuuuubish!

  @Steam still waiting for a response from your actual human customer service agents. I requested a refund for a game with 0hr played that's outside the 2-week window because of my hospitlization following cancer treatment and sepsis. You've automatically rejected it twice.

  @Steam, why does this error occur? Error There was a problem trying to follow this Steam Curator. Possible reasons: You cannot follow a curator that you are already ignoring. You can only follow up to 100 curators at the same time. Limited accounts cannot follow a curator. OK

  @EA @Steam probably should have extended refund period if this is a known issue.

  @2_left_thumbs @JohnTit11284680 @Steam i ran into problem of some games not running well because they turned out to be made on unreal engine or unity. i dont have issues with 2D unity games, but a lot of 3D ones run very poorly. i think most other people dislike certain for proper reasons too.

  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.

  hey @valvesoftware @Steam plz fix that new workshop UI none like (440 comments atm on the page announcing it, 4/5 of them want the old ui back or an option for it), as it doesn't work of some older version of firefox, while beta did. I can't access to workshop anymore by web. TY

  @PlayGameGen @Steam @DevGAMM At this point i feel like we are definitely leaning towards the first one. It's very easy to do a wrong move at a wrong time, but the player still has options to get out of trouble.

  @DDoubleLumbar @MoistCr1TiKaL @Steam That’s a huge red flag. Forcing browser links without consent? That's crossing a line. It’s not just annoying—it’s a trust issue. Developers need to prioritize user privacy or risk losing players. Who thought this was a good idea?

  @TopMdw @Steam Hi Kevin, your game is awesome! D you have a working link to the Contraption Maker Discord server by chance? The one I tried on the Steam page is not working... :(

  @Steam TBH: Task Bar Hero distributes unfair bans due to poor cloud implementation without proper explanation, obviously people are unhappy having 0 day(s) since last ban. Please force game developers to solve this issue. If they doubt their vibecoded detection code, unban *all*

  Turned on #XboxMode on my original ROG ALLY (@ASUS_ROG) — docked with no eGPU — and it completely fixed the disconnection issues I was having with #MarvelRivals and @Steam remote play. Setup: ROG ALLY docked → streaming via Steam Remote Play from my Mac Mini M2 to play on the big screen, using an Xbox controller. Before Xbox Mode it was pretty iffy with random disconnects. After simply rebooting into Xbox Mode, everything ran way smoother and more stable. Honestly the best I’ve ever gotten it to perform. @LinusTech video didn’t really touch on edge cases like this, but just enabling Xbox Mode turned my experience from frustrating to really solid. Anyone else using weird setups with their Ally?

  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

  And just to take the piss, I had Invisible War as I bought the two together but that game just crashes on start, which turns out is a well known bug without a fix. So again @Steam cheating me out of a purchase. If they don't refund it I'm not buying from Steam any more. **** 'em.

  @Steam What are you doing??? You allow soo many early access that many games become just scams! What is with this release a game and fix it later, the game industry is a disgrace!

  plutogam3r (@beestinging7) reported 45 minutes ago

  @DigitalActOfGod @Moonie__OS @Steam Steam does allow these. Also I need to say people publish all sorts of games every single day, I bet it is hard to keep up with how much gets published on the platform. Bringing up any issues with a game is one step in the right direction though before automatically thinking

  @Steam bethesda broke our fallout 4 mods. again. is there any way to tell steam to not update a game ever until i say so and still be able to launch it? please? @bethesda if you are not going to fix bugs in the actual game, stop ******* with the game.

  @ToanChan_ @Steam @ToanChan_ I have the exact same problem...I raised a ticket with steam, and they said they would make a note of my feedback, which essentially goes nowhere

  @Blaziken1500 @Steam This has only happened to a small amount of controllers as they said, i can't tell how many controllers are affected by this, but as to what i looks like(for me) its a issue from GLS and not even Steam. My Steam Deck Oled had arrived in 3-4 days back when it released.

  Sometimes I just want to gift my friends a game on steam, but somehow I can't because of my region. Heck, I'm down to pay whatever it is in their region, just give me an option to! @Steam fix pls I'm begging you
