    @FlawgamingHQ Bleh.. Too little too late. Wake me up when I can send my @EpicGames to my @Steam ****. Broken. The 5 people that play may like it.

    @Pirat_Nation @Steam @valvesoftware In an ideal world yes, but it's more to the effect of a grandfathered in aspect. Roughly 75% of everyone is there, other options are almost moot, as a cult following talks about convenance, and then complains about every aspects it creates. If one want's to be able to refund any game, expect that game to be 100 dollars, especially when purchasing it from a 3rd party store front. Don't mistake the issue. This is not a "Steam" issue, it's an informed consumer issue. So what Gabe Newell says is technically true, but the users are on auto pilot to the next fad, not proper investment. It is the consumer that makes Steam a "monopoly", not Steam/Valve itself. #StopKillingGames #DirectSupport #FundAllocation

    @DragonSnow4 @obakepam @Steam As for government's punishment, failure to disclose AI use should result in the permanent destruction of all their copyright with the inability to file new copyrights until they fix it. Anything created during the time of their lie should be free from copyright too.

    @1981Graf @NakiVT @Steam For promoting and glamorizing slavery and human abuse. If that's not obvious from a quick glance, that's your problem not mine.

    @EGOSOFT @Steam @GOGcom Another problem is that one bad mod for a old ship scadia just crashes the game. This is so annoying!!! I love that ship.

    @NoMansSky Got some good issues going on with MP with this update Sean if even @PlayStation is talking days longer than normal to accept this patch. Can’t even play with my friends who are on @Steam. When will you guys learn to fix your game fully. MP issues and problems for yrs upon yrs

    @EGOSOFT @Steam @GOGcom One more thing, I wish you guys add in the extension mod where you check the mods and siee if the mods work before your game crash.

    @Steam @Steam_Support I need help, I can't sign into steam support to enter a ticket because I'm encountering a log in error. I attempted to change my password but have no gone over the attempts. Every PW change kicked me out to an error. Can't find any other way to contact

    @UmbrellaFight I'd say Steam's only real issue is discovery, but this is a problem on every platform (and not just for games). I want to see new games, but it's kinda hard to find them. Imagine if @Steam and @X accounts could be linked so Twitter could show games similar to those I like.

    @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?

    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.

    Keiji D Ezio (@EzioKeiji) reported

    @obakepam @Steam Indie devs can't afford to hire hundreds of people in multiple studios around the world like UbiSlop or CrapCom. Who cares if the background bushes and trees in a game are AI generated. Truly 1st world problems.

  • Unsacredx77
    Unsacred (@Unsacredx77) reported

    @CrimsonDesert_ @Steam So I'm not sure but maybe the developers can look into what's causing the issue with the lighting and scaling. 5070 RTX 32 GB of RAM and still having issues with running the game in DLSS on quality and DLAA on Max settings above cinematic if possible. The lighting and scaling look blotchy and pixelated but this is something that didn't happen when the game had come out. The only way that I can get the game to look good is to disable all upscaling which includes the two that I've mentioned above.

    @Steam Can't sign in, changed password again, can't sign in, changed password again. Don't recognize my email address that you've had for years, missing download for Rome Total War, Steam support is ****, Steam website is ****. Don't respond to requests for support. Steam is ****

    @ToanChan_ @Steam I use a debit card and I don't have this issue at all. I'm able to see any game on the market. Something is weird.

    @ethangach Remember this very well, and then they decided to join Xbox in terms of creating a ghost service for people to pay to play online. If digital is indeed the way, then I shall have the files for myself, God save @gogcom and @Steam

    @PlayStation I reject the all digital future pushed by the WEF. If that future comes into fruition, the future of gaming should belong to @Steam. I simply don't trust Playstation thanks to previous censorship, woke tendency in the company, dynamic pricing, bad customer service, etc. #FSONY!

  • TheOldrGamerGuy
    The Older Gamer Guy (@TheOldrGamerGuy) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support This issue was resolved after we connected to a stable internet connection. Only then did our decks open as normal. Did they have to download something extra? Times differed.

    @IntroSpecktive My assumption is by then they will have broken @Steam by then and it’ll all come crashing down

    @HayyanCodes @EpicGames @Steam Can you make purchases in Syria on Steam? Are any international digital stores in Syria restored? We have unblocked access since the sanctions were lifted, but haven’t found a payment service provider that offers service directly for Syria.
