    @Howard_Lovy cc @pensandpoison might want to pick up on this. Remember how you stated literature was entirely taken over by the libs? Yeahhhh, this is another huge symptom of that. How is there not a @Steam - like service for creative works, such as literature, webcomics, etc.?

    @adredev @Steam i'm not sure if i get your problem but for me it was basically entering a new paymentmethod that's located in the target region to change the region of my account. didn't that work for you?

    @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?

    My @UpholdInc card seems to not be working at more and more places since it's been renewed. Didn't work at @Steam and now not working with @DisneyPlus despite putting all the new details in. 🙄

    Hello @valvesoftware @Steam got an error with firefox ESR version when trying too look at a game review: Error Reference: Store_10901820_325a607b0ded8bd2 URL.parse is not a function Is it possible to check? Thanks have a nice day.

  • mrdenn1s0
    Dennis (@mrdenn1s0) reported

    @xeokeri @Steam Well the error says otherwise. Person A is on Computer A, trying to open a game on Account X. Person B is on Computer B, already playing a game on Account X. Steam doesn't allow multiple persons playing different games on Account X on different devices at the same time.

    @ItzPuddleJumper @Steam Steam deck uses steam os which uses arch Linux as a base,Arch is a cutting edge rolling operating system so updates can break it usually they put the fix for it on archs website.

    @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

    @CombateMonero @Steam And yeah, judging by the fact that I received a template response, @Steam_Support has started using bots and AI to reply to developers... I got the same template rejection that barely answers my questions or relates to my problem.

    We’re in trouble. @Steam hasn’t reviewed our build for 14 days now. This is an emergency! I’m getting really nervous.😰😰😰😰 #indiedev

    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.

    Sony 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

    @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.

  • WrenchOfChaos
    Xenos (Ambassador Of Indie Games) (@WrenchOfChaos) reported

    @PotatoCrispDip @Steam But Steam is the biggest by far so you're losing an insane amount of money & exposure by not having your game on Steam, and there's no reason to keep the store hostile to short games when there's a simple fix. I don't understand defending keeping it that way.

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

    I have gone many years (more than 3yrs) not going on my @Steam account and you know what? I never lost any game or service that I had paid for. They are still there! Eat that @Sony @PlayStation

    @Steam Im more of a fan of being allowed to login to the account I own with my games without being dicked around, too bad steam can't do that it seems

    @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.
