    @ProphetZi @Steam @OnDeck I haven’t tried any of those games yet and I’m particularly saddened I haven’t tried Shadow of Mordor/War yet! I will tonight. Bethesda games work on Steam Deck so far. Haven’t had any issues! Running other launchers is relatively easy, some have native alternatives.

  • SolaceCrafting Solace Crafting (@SolaceCrafting) reported

    Tried to release out of Early Access after six years of development and weeks of preparation, only to have Steamworks error and set the game as unplayable for all owners. Waiting for a @Steam or @Steamworks support staff to reply. Sorry for all my players affected by this.

    @Steam I don't know what's going with your servers but this entire weekend save for a few hours yesterday, I have not been able to enjoy MSFS 2020. My friends who purchased theirs from the Microsoft store have had zero issues this entire weekend. Get your servers in order.
