    @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.

    @studiozaum @Steam Any idea if this will address some of the other sound/voiceover issues? I’ve encountered issues with both the guy at the top of the pylon and the music seller guy in the bazaar, halfway through a conversation the dialogue voice over will just stop playing.

    @obakepam @Steam Dare one wonder why the quality of a finished game suddenly becomes irrelevant the moment one learns a tool was used? If the only difference between enjoyment and disdain is knowledge of AI involvement, the issue was never the game.

    I was trying to release the update now and this has happened! Basically, had an issue where my phone broke, have a temporary one for now. Now @Steam have apparently blocked me from releasing it for 72 hours due to the new phone! 😭 I have sent a message, hopefully we can get this resolved! #IndieDev #GameDev

    @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.

    @xritsken @NakiVT @Steam It's a big part of the gameplay and you can do way more then just whip people to get them to work. Other examples is Palworld where pals are treated as slaves and can be butchered. It's ridiculous to say the whipping that is the only problem. Remove the whipping and it's fine?

    @Retro__Machine @videogamedeals @Steam If Sony can’t be trusted with digital games your “physical” ones have little value. Your game shelf is a mix of broken day 1 releases, installers, and completely empty discs with download keys on them.

  • AUTTENBURGH
    ライアン ☄︎ (@AUTTENBURGH) reported

    He said he would trade me the difference, but before he could return home to do it, the owner of the trading bot account said his trading bot was suspended instantly, like there is no logic in this and the system is broken, i even told @Steam to look at my trade history as proof.

    @AndoCal78 @CrimsonDesert_ There are a few reports about the crash in the @Steam discussion board for the game so it isn't an isolated problem and is likely related to the last update. Over 200 hours of playtime this without incident before this.

    @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.

    @ToanChan_ @Steam ah ages verify issues just like in canada... i am afraid credit card is only option, here they just put in ban social media under 16 of age but really for older over need send id government card (mainly only id) or credit card if no way

  • deepvesperplus
    Vesper+ Expansion🎈 (@deepvesperplus) reported

    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.

    @LPNintendoITA @Pirat_Nation @Steam They did for their Launcher. Problem is the game uses a third party launcher and Account so Ea Can do it.

    @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.

    @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 I just went to the weapons control panel on a builder ship and the game ******* crashed. The worst part I deleted one of my save games and still there are errors.

  • blademanunitpi

    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?

  • King18Anime

    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

    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.
