    This is genuinely the most frustrating installation process in my entire life. My computer legit can’t even ******* function. @Steam fix your **** client jfc.

    @HogwartsLegacy why are you not fixing the PC version? Everyone on @Steam is having launch crash issues and you are ignoring us. How are we giving 72 hours early access when no one can play?! So many have already requested refunds. We want answers!

    @HogwartsLegacy @Steam Having issues with downloading and installing. I predownloaded but the game was stuck on 100% for an hour when early access came out. Tried some solutions like uninstall and reinstall and others but same issue occurs where it stops at 64 #HogwartsLegacy

    I mean how hard is it for @HogwartsLegacy, @wbgames or even @Steam to put out a tweet or message saying they know their is currently an issue with Hogwarts legacy retail copy’s but we’re working on a fix

    @Steam is there a way to put in a general support/"issue not listed" ticket? None of the options on the support page relate to the issue I'm having.

    @Steam @valvesoftware Got a cool idea to make everyone a little extra money. Set up a used games section on steam, make it where users can submit their games to that ecosystem. Then get it setup as a subscription service where people can sub and do a 3 way split...

    @wbgamesfr @HogwartsLegacy @Steam My game crashed yesterday and since I can't launch it anymore, the green play button appears again and again but nothing is happening. I did uninstall the game, files verification but still not able to play, I got a " Phoenix" error. Help

    @hogwartslegacy @steam Can you communicate with us? I have 80 minutes of game time on steam all from being frozen on the ToS agreement page! Are you working on a patch or not acknowledging the issue many PC players are having?

    Eric “GaNchoO” Urnauer (@GanchoOtv) reported

    Hello @Steam ! Are we going to solve the @HogwartsLegacy problem? Or will you have to refund me the amount of early access that I am not able to access?

    Steam support is ******* dumb. Why do I need to talk to 8 different people just to be sent a link to an announcement that wasn't targeted at the games related to my issue @Steam

    @davidscottjaffe @Steam “I don’t care, as long as their not breaking the law who gives a ****, I can’t tell people what to do”. This is peoples problems right now. The trans community are TELLING us not to play Hogwarts, And I personally feel they they have made a bigger issue out of this than needed.

    @SteamStatus @Steam Seems it's slow and messages aren't loading. Also hogwarts was slow to load last night and unpack today along with game having issues as well but in contrast I think the broswer isn't running at optimal speed none the less.

  • navybratz96
    Ashlynn (@navybratz96) reported

    @Steam Can you guys actually fix the Hogwarts legacy game now please? Those of us who purchased the deluxe version have not been able to play. This is becoming a case of false advertising and I’m tired of getting the run around from your support team. The game is crashing!

  • SeveredLegs
    Severed Legs (@SeveredLegs) reported

    @Steam whatever the most recent UI change to the system using steam link, it's really been a huge pain in the ***. My controller randomly stops working and I have to keep disconnecting and reconnecting. This is really bad and I don't have some weird setup. Is there a fix coming?

  • charliebelle88
    Charlie_Liddle (@charliebelle88) reported

    @stuartddurham86 @HogwartsLegacy @Steam I’m having the same trouble. It’s greyed out and says I can’t play til the 10th 🥲

    @Steam I can't login to submit a support ticket, can you please help? I sent an email but it bounced. It says no account exists with my email address, but when I click on the email to verify it says its already verified.

    @NightdiveStudio @Steam Is there any plans to fix the zombie and melee behaviours? It looks so clunky. Apart from that it looks hot.
