    Sony should refund people that they take media away from, OR let them ultimately ∞ be able to access it like they paid for, when they bought it in the first place. Look at @Steam for good models of digital ownership. When a game leaves the store, it's no longer purchasable for new players. BUT< anyone that previously purchased that, can play it till they're sick of it. Blackouts will starve gamers, maybe even help them quit gaming... I doubt Sony is going to change their minds... but they can at least give 2TB/4TB nvme's for the prices they're going to expect in the future, and thanks to the size of games down the line too... There's too many sides to this to really bive one definitive solution or answer... but it should start with good online digital store etiquette to help counter the problem they're creating. Monopolies all suck. I hate publisher prices for my region on Steam, but Steam still lets me activate games that I get keys for outside of Steam. The grey market is my second home and steam is the platform to collect the achievements, the cards, the badges, etc. Thanks for that Gabe Newell

    @Steam #@steam I’m new from Nigeria. I’ve been trying to sign up since today and it’s not working the page doesn’t even load it keeps telling me to disconnect from VPN when I’m not even connected and there’s no public link or email to lay a complaint please fix it

  • 1mantisphoenix
    X|1MantisPhoenix (@1mantisphoenix) reported

    @Masterchiefin21 the problem is that @Steam allows publishers to treat gamers based on where they are from, whereas they should PROMOTE treating ALL GAMERS equally on the steam platform. The very same game above is 1/2 the price because someone lives in China VS South Africa. WTF is the reason for needing more from us Africans?!

    Shrimp (@ShrimpInd) reported

    Roll The Bones launch update: we have to delay the launch due to an unresolved issue on @Steam and the fact that @Steam_Support hasn't responded to us for 10 days. Not sure about the delay, I hope it's just an hour or two, but unfortunately @valvesoftware is unresponsive.

    TFW I was trying to buy the Kingdom Hearts bundle on STEAM. It gave me an error that my address is wrong but it still charged me. Now I'm out $30 and no games... @Steam @Steam_Support help pleaseeeee

  • Witchmaster
    Witchmaster (@Witchmaster) reported

    @SurvivalGN @ConanExiles For me, the move to UE5 sounded like a bad move. While I do use @Steam to play this, I'm also on Linux which has had a history of issues running Unreal 5 content. I decided to try it out and it just would not run. I restored to the UE4 version frustrated.

    @Steam Hey mu account has been stolen whole I was at work. They changed the username and the password,and email. I have all the emails and notifications steam has ever sent me. The automatic service keeps giving me the run around. Is there a better way to get in touch please?

    @KagutsuchiHeika @Pirat_Nation Actually issue is with @Steam as it was clearly stated by them that accounts cannot be passed on.

    @Zoroarts @Steam Who gives a ****? Take your bullshit and get out of here steam has the best refund policy and the best customer service of all gaming and you want to ruin it because people do a any% speed run of a indie game? Get tf out of here with that

    @PlayApex I can’t buy apex coins for some reason. Steam won’t authorize. You might see if there’s a fix you guys could make with @Steam @Steam_Support I just want to support a game and a couple of companies I love 🫶🏻💙

    @Howard_Lovy cc @pensandpoison might want to pick up on this. Remember how you stated literature was entirely taken over by the libs? Yeahhhh, this is another huge symptom of that. How is there not a @Steam - like service for creative works, such as literature, webcomics, etc.?

    @Steam I understand security but I will not digit code press your captchas. I guess I can't play War of Rights cause you are more intersted in farming my data than providing me a service?

    He is the most evil of evil and the most overpowered annoying dumb and stank character ever. #victorisoverparty because there’s no reason for him to exsist the way he does in this damn game. Because WHY does he have stank aura!! @valvesoftware @Steam @IntelDeadlock FIX THIS

    @CombateMonero @Steam Actually, this isn't the first time they've let me down. I remember during one of the Next Fests, my game only appeared on the page 3 days after the festival started, because there was some kind of error in the system and the game was invisible to everyone.

  • marcs125
    Marc (@marcs125) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam Sorry, but respectfully you are the problem. You knew the policy Steam had and released a low value product (low playtime/cost) so you should have expected this. The platform shouldn't cater to you when you create the situation. Make a better product or just accept it.

  • Xao_lanVT

    @ImCadeYT @Steam You got a better deal because the Steam Machine isn’t reliable and has a lot of problems. The Deck, on the other hand, is reliable and portable to boot.

    @Steam Oh, oh, help me @Steam, help me! I woke up today to face the harsh reality that Chrome decided to delete all my browser's saved passwords and login info! And you know what's even better?! I recovered everything, except for my Steam password !!

    I installed it on a different phone, a spamsung with the latest android instead of the LG, and was able to log in using that and my email. Then fix it. Think that thru. App-based 2FA is worse than nothing. @steam

  • palmaierc
    PaLM AI - $PALM (@palmaierc) reported

    Major Announcement - Fall 2026 This fall, our local AI harness that rivals everything else currently on the market, root, is going to be shipped as a software product over to @Steam. 1) Publishing the application on Steam will remove the need for a separate signature on the executable. 2) Steam has become the go-to for gaming & creativity related software tools, which goes hand-in-hand with root. 3) Wide accessibility. You acquire it once, and it is yours forever. The Steam Version will not support any cryptocurrency features and all sales revenue will be registered to the Web2 side of our business. It will also be restricted and controlled according to the Terms of Service of Steam and other agreements that the company may become liable to, including a refund policy. We will keep the community updated on the status of the publication. Expect it to happen within a few months. Thank you for your support.
