    Thanks @Steam for letting companies like @VRChat just take $100 out of people's accounts to renew a service they no longer use.

  • SteveWatkiss Steve Watkiss 🐺🐺🐺 (@SteveWatkiss) reported

    Forgot my @Steam account login, can’t reset with email/phone number. The messages from support keep asking for PayPal transactions that I don’t have access to anymore as I hadn’t purchased a game for nearly 8 years now. Confirmed all details already & still no further along 🙄

  • RealSourc3 TheRealSourc3 (@RealSourc3) reported

    @4Thund3r @VOIDInteractive @Steam I can probably manage to make a mod that binds the inputs to a controller to relay into the game. It might be an easy fix if u wanna use a controller, but it will still be on PC

  • Scharpiee Scharpie (@Scharpiee) reported

    @Steam They need to fix it so that you can resume your mid flight and have your tool bar actuslly work in game after doing so. I love this game but refuse to buy it since this glitch ruins long flights.
