-
drakkillen (@drakkillen) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Whats the issue? Its working just as it should
-
Danny Silvers (@shadesofsilver) reported@SandorHQ @Zoroarts @Steam Not to say that the price isn't right here. It absolutely is. What we really have is a cultural problem, and that's not something Steam can fix. Steam can't force its audience to grow up.
-
CamManx (@Uka_Manx) reported@Zoroarts @Steam I checked your steam page and of the English reviews 5 were calling your game bad and only two did this. Your dozens claim is dubious. Among reviews being too short was a very common criticism. You seam to be ignoring the very real problems with your game to scapegoat customers
-
Yuushia (@vongacayan) reported@Steam STOP BEING *** AND LET ME LOGIN TO MY ACCOUNT WITH THE PC I'VE BEEN USING FOR A YEAR NOW THIS STEAM GUARD THING IS MORE LIKE A STEAM JAIL
-
Ahoj Nazdar (@AhjNzdr) reported@Zoroarts @Steam You KNOW Steam allows refunds under 2 hours. If your game is THAT short it can be finished under 2 hours that's YOUR problem.
-
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
-
General K (@GKTABM) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Make your game longer than 2 hours worth of content, that is the industry standard. Add more levels. Add more modes. Add more replay-ability. Add more fun modifiers. This is literally a your game is lacking problem.
-
Artofmusic (@ArttomusicYay) reported@Zoroarts @Steam You have 1 level what do you expect.... make a longer game can't expect everyone to play for an hour and keep it. Come on its not steams issue.. I have been making games for over 26 years alone. Can't complain if someone beats it in the 2 hours. Thats on you not @Steam
-
Mr. Patchy (@Mister_Patchy) reported@dillzilla11 @LinuxMostly @Steam My dad didn't play on his account for literally years, then gave it to his stepson so he could play his games, literally no problems.
-
Aria Amaryllis (@AriaALake) reported@YawenCh69 @Zoroarts @Steam Name literally any other product or service that you can buy and use to its fullest extent and still get a refund for it without extenuating circumstances.
-
Gonza (@Pekzer_) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Probably the mayority of that 21% were people who dont like the game or have problems with it and thats why they refund.
-
✨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.
-
Toe (@xQtiee) reported@Zoroarts @Steam if your game is only worth 1 hour of playtime it deserves to get refunded. Make your game better so people want to invest more time and your problem goes away automatically.
-
Caribouwu (@karibuwu) reported@Kijara42 @Zoroarts @Steam We aren't talking about valid returns here though. We're talking about people abusing the return system to get the game for free like the case in the screenshot. If this were a legitimate pricing problem, then reviews would reflect that and call it out as a bad value. (1/2)
-
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.
-
Nameless chicken (@Namelesschicke2) reported@MythThrazz @Zoroarts @Steam The problem is what if I spend say 40-1 hour trying to get a game to work and fail? Why would I not get my money back for that?
-
Darrell williams (@2000_pip) reported@Zoroarts @Steam policy don't know if that was a auto or user error lol would have noticed till I got the like so ty lol
-
Tuna (@Tiny_Tuna) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Doesn't seem like it would be very hard for them to fix. If you get a game completion achievement, then no refund. Ezpz.
-
Sheldon, the Dentally Challenged (@sheldonlv30) reported@Zoroarts @Steam there's no way of doing that without developers exploiting it to make their games un-refundable. its just one of those things that can negatively effect either party, and its better to risk issues to developers than consumers
-
Slave to the Caffeine (@SlavetotheCaff1) reported@Dragovich_u @Zoroarts @Steam just make it longer than two hours, problem solved
-
Tom (@tommyownzall) reported@Zoroarts @Steam I found the problem. Make your game have some content so people play it for more than 2 hours.
-
TradeMate (@urf10) reported@Zoroarts @Steam if your game can be finished in 2h its not a game you should add more content then you dont have this problem
-
L9FRIENDLYSTYLE (@L9FRIENDLYSTYLE) reported@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
-
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.
-
L9FRIENDLYSTYLE (@L9FRIENDLYSTYLE) reported@LiquidEffer @Zoroarts @Steam Do you typically spend your energy on the problems you have the power to solve or do you complain about issues out of your control publicly This guys spam refreshing his sea of thumbs up reviews and he saw a singular red one and posted this while ignoring ones with real issues
-
CrowFly (@CrowFly69) reported@Zoroarts @Steam This is a you problem. Maybe fit more than an hour and a half of gameplay.
-
Chud McCloud ✝️🇺🇲 (@MaroonKennedy) reported@eramaster12 @Steam @PlayStation Playstation says they want to double down on live service games even after the failures of Concord and Marathon
-
Marokano (@Marokano8888) reported@Zoroarts @Steam That's not a Steam issue, people are just pieces of ****, also you could make game a little longer.
-
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.
-
Demielle Tournes 🧩📷 VT (Otokonoko👗) (@DemieTournes) reported@TheRealJTV4K60 @Steam And what ******** this has to do with Sony's anti consumer practices? 99% the issue here is about Sony having ****** practices by revoking licenses and closing their older stores without having proper backwards compatibility. And for what do you want those PS5 pro specs? to run badly optimized ****** bloated PS5 exclusives? Also PC is an open ended platform with multiple storefronts and ways to own your games. Seriouysly, you low IQ neanderthals can barely breath with how deep sony's **** is inside your throats.
