熨斗蘭(のしらん) (@Noshiran_game) reported@Steam_Support @Steam fix plz
-
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.
-
Cørey (@coreyVMG) reportedFix your **** @Steam
-
Slave to the Caffeine (@SlavetotheCaff1) reported@Dragovich_u @Zoroarts @Steam just make it longer than two hours, problem solved
-
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.
-
Jyn (@Mr_Clutchweg) reported@Cloy006 @Zoroarts @Steam "Only people that found it to easy refunded it". Screenshot shows "GREAT GAME" and refunded. The problem is that people are getting pushed to try refunds like these because of some speedrunners beating difficult games in under 2 hours and refunding them. That works with big
-
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.
-
**** Tuglick⛧ (@MuffTuglick) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Easy fix, Make a game with at minimum 5+ hours of gameplay. Make the game have replay value.
-
HowlingHenry (@HowlingFord) reported@gaersstapa @Zoroarts @Steam He can complain about the system being unfair for short games (it is) but the system is inherently better regardless due to the fact that anyone with tech problems or other limitations can always get their money back after buying a game on steam
-
cracinlac (@burnme121107) reported@Chriss_m @Zoroarts @Steam do you watch a movie and then demand your money back because it was only an hour and a half long? and clearly the quality of the game isnt a problem because people are literally saying they enjoyed it but still refunding it. its bad for the developer who is a person with needs
-
CynoSideUp 🍳 (@LiquidEffer) reported@L9FRIENDLYSTYLE @Zoroarts @Steam > Two completely unrelated issues
-
MultiEnding Heroes OUT NOW! 🇦🇷 (@NicoDiti) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Add a 3 hours ending cutscene like Kojima and no more problems.
-
Useless (@mustafa27007713) reported@Zoroarts @Steam i dont see this as steam fault,2 hours is such a good time window to experience a game especially if its a big pvp paid game (see marathon). now its for sure annoying for people to refund you even tho they loved your game but thats more of people issue then steam issue.
-
Slave to the Caffeine (@SlavetotheCaff1) reported@SmashUltimateB1 @Zoroarts @Steam It's the easiest way to address the problem. I didn't and wouldn't do it but steam isn't going to budge
-
Paco Ace (@DamJPaco) reported@Steam Hi, I need help to modify my email address. Former email address is unavailable but I get a "error 2" everytime I put the code I received to change my email... Please help !
-
Turbopumpkin (@Turbopumpkin1) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Good games don't have this issue
-
TheSoloWolf (@TheSoloWolf7) reported@Zoroarts @Steam I don’t think they should fix the refund policy I think a way to combat This is make your game longer make your game worth keeping with updates I do agree this is a **** thing to do but steam has a really good refund policy that helps the customer over the company, which is good
-
🔞AeyerLock🔞 (Commission Open) 1/3 (@Aeyerlock) reported@_Lukaerd @Zoroarts @Steam i saw that as a problem but there would need to be an appeal process to prove that the developer implemented a scam. That or perhaps developers need to provide proof when and how the achievemnent is aquired and needs to be tested where it functions normally.
-
MetriusMD (@MetriusMD) reportedI never really had a problem with buying key codes on @KinguinNet until I ran into Pressure by @Chasing_Carrots developer is very bad on discord you can dm anyone it says to email them but the dev will not reply to any emails can't even leave a bad review #baddeveloper @Steam
-
Maxie 🎮 Bloodstained CotM | Visions of Mana (@maxieaftermdnyt) reported@PlayStation If I wanna play co-op games, I’d rather play on @Steam No need to pay for multiplayer for online co-op. And they have good customer service when it comes to digital purchases, which you DON’T Ya sure can REALLY afford to go discless? #NoDiscNoBuy
-
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.
-
Azrhenia (@Azrhenia) reportedHey @Steam Will you delete my account if I'm not login for 10 years?
-
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).
-
AureusCrush (@AureusCrush) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Idk man feels like you could just idk, make a slightly longer/more challenging game and your issue would be resolved.
-
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
-
Gaurav Kakaria (@kakaria) reportedI am not able to sign in to my steam account even after changing my password 3 times successfully. And there is no option to reach out to steam for issue on the website. It only leads to same landing page for changing the password. @Steam @Steam_Support
-
Xoey (@Xoey80239413) reported@Zoroarts @Steam The problem is there are a million reasons to refund plenty of games hours and hours into playing them, and two hours is the lowest they can make it practically. Honestly I think it should be 10-20 hours, and isn't because people could do that with Call of Duty.
-
ARKS Angel (@arks_angel) reported@Steam is everything okay? First I was having issues downloading from the Chicago CDN, and now getting a bad gateway error when viewing my wishlist?
-
Daz🤘 (@Metal_Dazzaw) reported@2K @mafiagame Fix input glyph being blank on steam deck and steam machine? For this and mafia 1 definitive, please? @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.
