Manthos Lappas | ASTHENIA-GAMESCOM (@ManthosLappas) reported@notskillo @stan_banatan @Steam Honestly, I don't have anything against such reviews, which I do get and always try to fix technical issues to the best of my understanding and abilities. I fully welcome those. Its the other kind of reviews I gotta realize that are part of the "game" and not worry much about.

John (@TheCassiniGames) reported@Steam Fix your servers bro 😭
-
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.

Has/Been ਸਿੰਘ (@sashnextdoor) reported@Steam @Steam_Support I was trynna use faceit and was logged outta my account but I still had my credentials and it wasn't compromised. This has happened before and I vowed to never use their service again but when I logged into the steam the UI forced me to submit a stolen account HT-F7KX-36KU-68A8

Joseph (@Josephshandle) reported@Steam I was needing assistance with my steam deck, unsure how to fix an issue I am having with it.
-
ᵔᴗᵔ (@zanyx) reportedI thought it was just me. Keep getting spam email of someone trying to login into my steam account. Kinda annoying tho cause I do got the 2FA turned on. @Steam do something dud
-
BYYONI (@BYYONI1) reported@CombateMonero @Steam Actually, this isn't the first time they've let me down. I remember during one of the Next Fests, my game only appeared on the page 3 days after the festival started, because there was some kind of error in the system and the game was invisible to everyone.
-
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
-
Aniah Mathias (@aniah_mathias3) reported@Steam #@steam I’m new from Nigeria. I’ve been trying to sign up since today and it’s not working the page doesn’t even load it keeps telling me to disconnect from VPN when I’m not even connected and there’s no public link or email to lay a complaint please fix it
-
Mücadele'ye devam (@yigido50sekiz) reported@Steam I can't connect to the voice room; nothing about your system is stable. Whenever there's an update, a host of problems follows—when will a solution be found for this?
-
Gaurav Kakaria (@kakaria) reportedI am not able to sign in to my steam account even after changing my password 3 times successfully. And there is no option to reach out to steam for issue on the website. It only leads to same landing page for changing the password. @Steam @Steam_Support
-
Elijah (@iitzDoom) reported@stan_banatan @ManthosLappas @Steam You don't need to play a game for 40hr to be able to tell that it isn't good, clown. That's to say nothing of leaving reviews due to technical issues.
-
maestrolee (@maestrolee_kr) reported@ColorTheBooks @Steam I heard that Valve has already been on vacation, so if that’s still affecting the review process, we’re really in trouble. Please...
-
Abandoned Account 🏴 🇬🇧 (@Abandac123) reported@Dexerto While @Steam's refunding system is the gold standard for consumers, it's not without its issues. There should be additional rules on the length of gameplay. Like, if u reach 1/4 of the game or the 2 hour window. That's fair. @Steam_Support
-
Michael Eskenasy (@ItsChefreyOS) reportedHey @Steam people…I’ve been saying this for weeks, your coordination is broken…
-
Kortrah (@kortrah) reported@Steam_Support @Steam No Man's Sky is listed in the promo video of the PVE Survival Crafting Fest but is not discounted. Is this in error or intended? #nomanssky
-
Animegal (@Animegirl259) reported@Steam fix the friends thing it says blocked for some reason
-
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?
-
Whozae ✨️ (@whozae) reported@EA @Steam Like yeah makes sense to Ban the customer when THERE IS NO POSSIBLE WAY TO REACH A ******* HUMAN BEING NOR SUBMIT A FORM FOR AN ISSUE THATS "Invalid license. We're sorry, an error has occurred." DAWG! THIS ISSUE HASNT BEEN FIXED FOR SO MANY YEARS! @FTC need to start fine-ing you *******
-
Sunkanmi Fafowora (@the_jonin_) reportedThat'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.
-
Azzys Design Works (@AzzyDesignWorks) reported@ntbrown01 @Steam I have a 2nd gen MS Surface that I want to turn into a portable steam machine. Problem is going to be cracking it open to replace the battery.
-
Bob The Builder (@BobTheBuilderjs) reported@IntCyberDigest Cyberleek shot dead by steam support as rockstar support is dogshit Thank you for your service once again @Steam
-
Felidae Machina (@Felidae_Machina) reported@Steam Yeah I can’t search, can’t add a game to cart and can’t login online.
-
Formal Gangster (@FormalgangsterK) reported@PlayApex I can’t buy apex coins for some reason. Steam won’t authorize. You might see if there’s a fix you guys could make with @Steam @Steam_Support I just want to support a game and a couple of companies I love 🫶🏻💙

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
