Zehlia (@ZehliaGaming) reported@Maxim_Drw @Zoroarts @Steam "Its a ****** game, but fun" if you had fun, its not a ****** game. And if the game is ****, you cant have fun By that first sentence alone, you cant be taken serious and are part of the problem
-
InquisitorIrene (@OperaOfTheLC) reported@Zoroarts @Steam That’s such a trashy move, why is 2 hours the standard still? There needs to be better ways to issue refunds rather than just a standard 2 hours.
-
StockStackr (@VeganCatBounce) reported@Steam you want to spam in the background, but when I go to log in to my account you have been spoofin, now we have a password issues? you pukes!
-
DougieDispenser@aspirin.jp (@Shinogi_Trench) reported@zynnachin @BasedBickle @Steam “glaring issues that it takes playtime to figure out” speak for yourself. Who ******** is “they” lmao. You don’t get to speak about it because your opinion is worthless. You also type like a retarded fat chick. Three questions in your reply because you’re unsure about everything
-
Makmao😭💢 (@MakoMakmao) reported@Zoroarts @Steam adding more content to the game so people would not refund it after playing this once. This is entirely on you, but i would't be surprised if you are an industrial plant just to attack Steam over thing that isn't broken. Learn some accountability for your bad actions, don't
-
Xenos (Ambassador Of Indie Games) (@WrenchOfChaos) reported@PotatoCrispDip @Steam The problem is that you can return any game through steam within 2 weeks and played under 2 hours, and many devs who have made critically acclaimed but very short games have made this same complaint about people beating & returning the game. It's a a problem steam needs to fix
-
Apex Autist (@galaxygash) reported@Zoroarts @Steam absolutely no problem. I'm sorry if that caused/causes you any issues, if anyone cites it or makes the claim, tag me and ill clarify I was mistaken and why.
-
Ets (@ets_vn) reported@Steam please how do I get in touch with your support. I cannot login into my account as it has been stolen and I cannot reset my password. I have tried everything on the support websites but no success please help.
-
Foresight20/20 (@Foresight20_20) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Lack of replay ability is the problem here, if your game is good people will keep it to replay it. Or make it longer, you will always find people that abuse the system but doesn't mean we should ruin it for everyone else.
-
Marc (@marcs125) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Sorry, but respectfully you are the problem. You knew the policy Steam had and released a low value product (low playtime/cost) so you should have expected this. The platform shouldn't cater to you when you create the situation. Make a better product or just accept it.
-
Vernon Black (@veerrn) reported@Steam any idea when going to address 🤔 this outage you have with customers
-
Kamina (@nogal909) reported@TheWarTank_YT @Zoroarts @Steam Yeah, if they feel what they paid was too much and they're in time for a refund I'd have 0 problems, since I respect my consumers (I'm a dev btw and 0 problems with this).
-
M.Safwan (@MSafwan14479038) reported@Steam_Support I have lost my login ID. The @Steam ID is not connected to anyone, i.e. my phone. I remember my gmail but I still can't access the software. I can't play games. Please help me @Steam_Support
-
johnny utah (@vinnychase1764) reported@Steam your support sucks. You won’t refund a game that has under 4 hours of play time. You see all the reviews. It’s broken.
-
Aniah Mathias (@aniah_mathias3) reported@Steam #@steam I’m new from Nigeria. I’ve been trying to sign up since today and it’s not working the page doesn’t even load it keeps telling me to disconnect from VPN when I’m not even connected and there’s no public link or email to lay a complaint please fix it
-
Cezary Kruszewski (@CezaryKruszews1) reported@KagutsuchiHeika @Pirat_Nation Actually issue is with @Steam as it was clearly stated by them that accounts cannot be passed on.
-
Rodead (@ProgramRodead) reported@Pirat_Nation good for them, still not removing it from my ignore list. which admittedly still doesn't mean much as @Steam's store page is still broken. fix your store damn it! @Steam_Support
-
Allan Smithee (@SmitheeAll88909) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Honestly such an edge case Steam has no incentive to do anything about it. I agree those who do this are scummy, but the only realistic fix is making your game longer.
-
Raimyah (@Raimyah) reportedHey @Steam, I'm having trouble reporting a developer who slipped DLC for their pixelated game behind a $31/month pay wall on Patreon behind your back. Your help site is a little outdated and I've wanted a ticket on this topic for months.
-
Samson (@MrWho26) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Can't say I agree with you there...dispite the guy being able to complete your game in under 2h it should b absolutely possible for him to refund at that time. The amount of trash/meme games on steam is a big issue still and your simple solution won't work in such complex case
-
Matt☆Kenzaro (@Kenzaro_) reported@Zoroarts @Steam If your game can be finished in less than 2 hours for someone that never played it previously, that's on you. Refunds are made to be able to return the product if there's an issue or if not following expectation. 2 hours of gameplay is too short for some people
-
StockStackr (@VeganCatBounce) reported@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?
-
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.
-
Bernier. ARCHIVE (@Berneirffxiv) reported@Steam_Support you really are the GOAT. @Steam usally pulls though. so many years and any problem they do their best. Even if it did not work out they go above and beyond .
-
Jim Crain (@jcrain1991) reported@Britdissonance @Zoroarts @Steam Thanks for answering that yes you are a simpleton. The average person doesn't beat it in 2 hours. Thats what "average time to beat is 3-4 hours" means. If its a refund for not liking it. Fine. That's perfectly acceptable. Problem is...HE SAID THE GAME WAS GREAT IN THE REVIEW!
-
熨斗蘭(のしらん) (@Noshiran_game) reported@Steam_Support @Steam fix plz
-
Mikey B (@TheUPSboy) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Sounds like a you problem
-
Formal Gangster (@FormalgangsterK) reported@PlayApex I can’t buy apex coins for some reason. Steam won’t authorize. You might see if there’s a fix you guys could make with @Steam @Steam_Support I just want to support a game and a couple of companies I love 🫶🏻💙

DracaBro ✝️☦️ (@DracaBro) reported@Zoroarts @nieyter19 @Steam Dude, they don't like when someone is greedy. Some of these folks were going to give your game a try and give an honest review, these are folks doing the only thing they can do, to make sure others realize you messed up and didn't make a good game, you made a meh game not a good game. NOW there is still a chance for the game to become GOOD, but after hearing about the $5 DLCs, I doubt that is possible. Now if you change the price of the DLCs possibly maybe people will change their minds. Anyways I'm done dealing with this terrible hot take you decided was a great idea, and has now brought down your dev carrier. When you get a good review, just be happy to have it; don't complain about it. "don't look a gift horse in the mouth" as they say. That review is now a negative review just so yea know, because you took this path. So, you now have to make up for what you've done, that means making the games better; I suggest taking pointers from other games similar to it. Anyways, I wasted too much time with this stupidity, I have a server to set up, and events to prepare for. Hopefully you fix this situation and accept that Steam has abuse policies in place, and if you want those policies to work in your favor, make better games.

Slave to the Caffeine (@SlavetotheCaff1) reported@Dragovich_u @Zoroarts @Steam just make it longer than two hours, problem solved
