    It looks like @Steam has some kind of glitch in the #Steam client for Windows today. Half my wishlist just shows up as "uninitialized" until you click on details, and it loops asking for approval to use cookies again and again despite me just accepting all

  • Rocketnaut Rocketnaut (@Rocketnaut) reported

    @HempGoD3 @Steam can you reform a reply that is actually coherent? all youve done so far is show an issue with a game which is the responsibility of the developer. its not steam's responsibility just because they sell it dumbass. go ahead and blame apple because an app on the app store is broken.

  • LemonyNebula LemonyNebula (@LemonyNebula) reported

    @whitefoxiv @Steam @valvesoftware Basically, not being verified does not mean it will not work. Most games should. Only unsupported games will have problems as they could be due to the OS or something like VR. Even then, windows is usable on the system for the OS conflicts.

    @Steam You really should fix the issues with your launcher. Downloading is sometimes near impossible! Have gigabit fiber and yet an 800mb update was going to take nearly 5 DAYS! Switched servers then had to re-login to my account to not get a verification code for 15mins!!!!
