    @Steam, why does this error occur? Error There was a problem trying to follow this Steam Curator. Possible reasons: You cannot follow a curator that you are already ignoring. You can only follow up to 100 curators at the same time. Limited accounts cannot follow a curator. OK

    Hey @Steam , Could you please fix your ****? I"m tired to have friend trying/wanting to gift a game, but due to region, or them being overseas, they just can't freaking do it. YET.. I CAN do and send gift to them, make it make a dang sense. Literally can't get games from friends.

    @Steam Can't sign in, changed password again, can't sign in, changed password again. Don't recognize my email address that you've had for years, missing download for Rome Total War, Steam support is ****, Steam website is ****. Don't respond to requests for support. Steam is ****

    RememberToHope (@RememberToHope) reported

    Will the MORONS at @Steam fix Dead Island 2? It's missing the "anti easy cheat" install files after the update, so it can't launch anymore if people uninstall then reinstall it. Your staff are abolute derps. This has been a persisting issue for months (since the last update).

    @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.

    @herogamer0108 @Steam Transaction error when I try to buy a game as a gift using my Steam wallet.

    Sometimes I just want to gift my friends a game on steam, but somehow I can't because of my region. Heck, I'm down to pay whatever it is in their region, just give me an option to! @Steam fix pls I'm begging you

    @Steam this better not go through, this is literally the only way i can buy games on steam. terrible move. scammers aren't the problem, the idiots buying from them are since they lack a frontal lobe.

    @Steam He other issue is it's not VAC secure for MP either with proton GE...sticking with experimental....

    FastPuppy (@fastpuppy) reported

    @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.

    @Steam @Steam_Support if you guys could fix your store, that would be great

    @LundukeJournal @Steam wayland is broken trashware. Nobody wants broken trashware. X11 or ****.

    @CounterStrike gonna have to explain to me why I'm banned for 24 hours because my power surged and couldn't connect back in time.. @Steam and your dumbass suggestion saying troubleshoots problems before playing is retarded..

    @Steam @Steam_Support I need help, I can't sign into steam support to enter a ticket because I'm encountering a log in error. I attempted to change my password but have no gone over the attempts. Every PW change kicked me out to an error. Can't find any other way to contact

    @ServiusTheBear @Steam ... that wasn't my point at all. I think it's hilarious and have 0 issues with it. There's absolutely no reason to remove such a silly nothing.

  • juliemine_rus
    JuLieMine (@juliemine_rus) reported

    @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.

  • 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.

    @obakepam @Steam AI stream lines a lot of the work flow in game development and removes all the annoying **** developers had to deal with back in the day. Developers still have to go in manually build systems, add the art to the UI, fix bugs in the code etc..

  • infirms_re
    inf (@infirms_re) reported

    @Steam TBH: Task Bar Hero distributes unfair bans due to poor cloud implementation without proper explanation, obviously people are unhappy having 0 day(s) since last ban. Please force game developers to solve this issue. If they doubt their vibecoded detection code, unban *all*

  • SirSlender
    SirSlender🎩🧐 (@SirSlender) reported

    @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.

    @Moonie__OS @Steam Just consider it a historical game. Problem solved.

    The Looter 👉 Wishlist on Steam! (@TacticalDogs) reported

    @PlayGameGen @Steam @DevGAMM At this point i feel like we are definitely leaning towards the first one. It's very easy to do a wrong move at a wrong time, but the player still has options to get out of trouble.

  • CHRISDBRAND
    CHRISTOPHER D. BRAND (AUTHOR) (@CHRISDBRAND) reported

    And just to take the piss, I had Invisible War as I bought the two together but that game just crashes on start, which turns out is a well known bug without a fix. So again @Steam cheating me out of a purchase. If they don't refund it I'm not buying from Steam any more. **** 'em.

    @Moonie__OS @Steam it teaches you empathy for black people so thay you do not whip them too much. what is the problem with this?

  • myXCuriosity
    myXCuriosity (@myXCuriosity) reported

    @Pirat_Nation piracy IS proof that demand exists and that the product or service isn't being sold or priced in a way that the customer thinks is worth the effort to pay. piracy is a service issue. a distribution issue. a sales issue. go ask Gabe at @Steam . he's the expert on this.

    I had my account hacked by some random guy on steam a while back around 2024, Well i contacted steam and they got me my account back within a day but also gave me a free 100 dollars for the trouble I just wanted to make this post because steam is awesome @Steam yall are goats!

    @TimSweeneyEpic @EpicGames @Steam Yes, we can buy games on Steam using Visa and Mastercard. Also, providers like nsave now fully support Syria. But on Epic, we can't even claim free games. we can browse the store fine, but the actual checkout/claim process just errors out every time.
