    @KazuoSergal @Zoroarts @Steam retard. this isnt a fix. imagine a cashier hands you a cookie and its delicious and you go "im not paying because it was too small'

  • ArtbyYutami
    ✨Yutami✨ - Comms Open! (@ArtbyYutami) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam I am so sorry this happened and Im glad that person commented as a way for you to see your game isnt the issue, even if they are part of the problem. I hope they change this for smaller games.

    @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

  • HowlingFord

    @gaersstapa @Zoroarts @Steam He can complain about the system being unfair for short games (it is) but the system is inherently better regardless due to the fact that anyone with tech problems or other limitations can always get their money back after buying a game on steam

    @Zoroarts @Steam This seems like a you problem

    Dani (@sqronce) reported

    @Zoroarts @nieyter19 @Steam Some would believe evidence, and some wouldn’t. Receipts help with claims. While you’re trying to prove claims, I’m still waiting on evidence of all the reviews boasting of refunding after completing in under 2 hours, showing that this form of refund was a wide spread issue.

    @ArtemR @Steam People have stated issues with the overall thermals being very poor

  • MaximusChadikus
    MaximusChaddikus (@MaximusChadikus) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam I have a question Steams refund policy has been around how long? And you put this game on steam knowing this why? Sounds like a you problem.

  • MakoMakmao
    Makmao😭💢 (@MakoMakmao) reported

    @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

  • BickleKun
    Bickle bork (@BickleKun) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam fun fact if you were playing on Xbox, they don't charge you until 10 days before release Because you see when you do those refunds it cost you money. if only all you people were on XBOX so many of your problems wouldn't exist How about that

  • SpaceGirlYeeHaw
    SpaceYeeHaw (@SpaceGirlYeeHaw) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam I hope steam does nothing, you should have made a game that takes longer then the refund time and provide enough content to go past the refund time, if you can't do that then thats your problem.

    @prestonjbyrne my twitter 12 (2014) creating an account at 6 makes me 18? my google account is older I watched a minecraft video and it said "hold up a minute!! were not sure how old you are" like **** you don't know @Google b!tches. 22 years @Steam long service badge and they want my id too

    @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.

  • GnomeKr
    GnomeK (@GnomeKr) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam You made a 4 dollar rage bait game about paddling with your friend you can beat under 2 hours without even trying to. Of course people are gonna refund it, you're not gonna keep an empty burger wrap after eating the bruger. Problem is with the game, not the system.

  • 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.

  • EveilCharm
    EVEILCHARM (@EveilCharm) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam I agree it sucks but it's consumer protection against scam games and even one of them hit the news about a month or two ago so it's still a problem even now with the refund.

  • Epik_S07
    CatMan (@Epik_S07) reported

    @Steam on browser its work fine problem in client

  • PoshIndie
    Posh Indie (@PoshIndie) reported

    @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.

    @Zoroarts @Krazerack @Steam I hate people do that.. unless got issues game really bad i understand....or unplayable.. well some people abuse it ... this gonna be problem later

  • cytlan
    Cytlan (@cytlan) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam Sounds like you need to make longer games my dude. My suggestion, that's appropriate for your level of creativity: Have 4 arbitrary pauses in the game that each requires at least 30 minutes to pass. Problem solved.

  • Psykatomique
    Psykatomique productions (@Psykatomique) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam At this point, if you sell a game that is less than 2 hour... the gamer is not the problem here... We have more and more games on steam, i would rather have half and more consistent.

  • Bitbybrix
    Atomic Brick Studio (@Bitbybrix) reported

    Hello @Steam, I bought Sunset Overdrive and Undertale today, but an error occured through my purchase when I bought it. The money was deducted from my card but the Steam app said that the purchase failed due to an incorrect address. I had to redo my purchase for it to work.

  • gfodor
    gfodor.id (@gfodor) reported

    @OlexGameDev @Zoroarts @Steam It’s a problem that people can use their system to play paid games to the end for free. It’s almost certainly a solvable problem, you’re just concluding that because you can’t think of a way to solve it without damaging the current environment that no solution is possible.

  • RickTrajan
    RickTrajan (@RickTrajan) reported

    @gaersstapa @Zoroarts @Steam The problem with this mindset is it encourages prolonging a game rather than doing what it's meant to do (telling a story, good multiplayer setup, or whatever a game you want it to be). It's like word count on essays, vehicles being predominantly suvs and trucks in US, etc.

    @LiquidEffer @Zoroarts @Steam He has the solution at his fingertips yet you and others are here encouraging him to sit on his *** and do nothing about it and wait for the force he has no control over to fix his problem

    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

  • dingoman5001
    Dingo Love Simulator (@dingoman5001) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam I'm sorry but that is your problem for making a game with barely a triple-digit minute runtime

  • Cloy006
    Cloy (@Cloy006) reported

    @Mr_Clutchweg @Zoroarts @Steam "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." People like this wouldntve even tried the game if they didnt see speedrunners play it, there was no will to keep it
