    @2_left_thumbs @JohnTit11284680 @Steam i ran into problem of some games not running well because they turned out to be made on unreal engine or unity. i dont have issues with 2D unity games, but a lot of 3D ones run very poorly. i think most other people dislike certain for proper reasons too.

    Hey @Steam any chance of talking to someone? Your website is a bit **** when trying to navigate and resolve an issue, so I need a real person.

  • LowlMusic

    @NakiVT @Steam i dont see the problem.

    Ness_and_Sonic (@Ness_and_Sonic) reported

    @Judokast @Smthingedgy @Steam There's problems with Steam. The review filter is a big one for me. They applied an off topic review bomb filter to a game that rightfully deserved it for censorship.

  • yukariss_da

    @Steam I try to login to my account but i cant. I dont know why When i try to send code to my email, i received nothing. Just ferivy button...i dont understand because its a loop hole  I never add steam guard. But you ask for it. Im confuse. I dont know how to recover this.

    @HyperLovingBun @valvesoftware @Steam The controller isn't effected by RAM price increases, so that shouldn't be an issue...

  • AzureCrux
    AzureCrux (@AzureCrux) reported

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck Payment processors have rate limits, chief. Too many people wanted controllers at once. Every platform exclusive has this problem, it's frustrating as heck.

  • longshotmagoo
    Stephen McHugh (@longshotmagoo) reported

    @IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck I knew the controller would sell out fairly quick like but 30 mins is insane haha. Valves biggest problem is filling demand, that's a great problem lol

  • greg_opera
    Gregory Opera (@greg_opera) reported

    @minkrov @Anaya_sharma876 @Steam The games themselves aren't the problem - most anticheat systems actually support Linux *natively* these days... The problem is that the developers behind many multiplayer games *choose* to blacklist Linux because they're anti-Linux. Also, they're a small part of the industry.

    Massive props to @Steam . Courier dropped my Steam Controller 4 hours from my address (same one my Steam Deck reached just fine), couldn't be rerouted — so they sent a replacement AND gifted me Forza Horizon 6 to make up for it. Downloading now. This is how customer service should work 🎮 @ForzaHorizon

  • RetroG96187

    @litteralyme0 @Steam support is excellent. I had a problem once and they went above and beyond to fix it for me. Legends.

    @valvesoftware @Steam Added to cart at launch, but then nothing but error messages until a minute after launch when it showed out of stock. But at least the scalpers were able to get them. They are gong for $300 on eBay. Can’t say I’m surprised, just disappointed.

  • hide_X666
    J. Ilmari (@hide_X666) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Would've been nice if your servers would've let me purchase it. Got errors 30 mins straight and then it was sold out

    @valvesoftware @Steam When will it be back in stock I tried like 20 times to purchase it and I kept getting an error. 😭

    Can someone please tell me how to deal with a @Steam update glitch? I've been stuck with one for @TheSims 4 for a while (probably on and off for most of the time since I last played in April 2023), so your help would be appreciated 🎮

    @Steam Can you explain to me why you ******* change my ps4 controller to xbox buttons? I'm frustrated a lot with this **** I hate xbox, I ain't learning the buttons from the start fix that ****

  • IvanIronfist
    Ivan Ironfist (@IvanIronfist) reported

    @Moonie__OS @Steam - Big hit reg issue causing you to hit slaves by accident - Lots of micro at the start - No mechanics explanation but not too hard to figure out - Needs more lore and house staff - Needs slaves of different races with different buffs - Cost $1 which is not bad but lacks content

    @Moonie__OS @Steam What's the problem? That's generally how it works
