Chronostitch (@TheGigerist) reportedSo guys i was asked to vote on steam and normally do not I got banned until 2038 never had one issue until them @Steam
-
Rodead (@ProgramRodead) reported@Pirat_Nation good for them, still not removing it from my ignore list. which admittedly still doesn't mean much as @Steam's store page is still broken. fix your store damn it! @Steam_Support
-
Abandoned Account ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ ๐ฌ๐ง (@Abandac123) reported@Dexerto While @Steam's refunding system is the gold standard for consumers, it's not without its issues. There should be additional rules on the length of gameplay. Like, if u reach 1/4 of the game or the 2 hour window. That's fair. @Steam_Support
-
Benni (@ghostedstudio) reported@adredev @Steam "don't trust this man with an self service upload page.... please"
-
johnny utah (@vinnychase1764) reported@Steam your support sucks. You wonโt refund a game that has under 4 hours of play time. You see all the reviews. Itโs broken.
-
Young Thot Thot (@ShilohFlacko) reported@Studioaip @Steam Having the same issue
-
KalicoShade (@MidKnightKurama) reported@jx @ImCadeYT @Steam Take 5 seconds to go to the article, โCEVA received specific delivery-related information from Steam to be able to ship physical hardware to customers in Europe, and told us these are the details the attacker likely took.โ So yes it COULD lead to order issues.
-
ZeeLee3D (@zeelee3D) reported@ManthosLappas This is why @valvesoftware and @Steam desperately need to revamp the review system. It's so broken, and the binary up or down leaves no room for truth. This reviewer is also weak, just don't leave a review if it's not your kind of game. "I hate seafood, and I really didn't like the lobster dish that I chose to order" is absolutely worthless to everyone. We need a neutral button for reviewers who think they're helping the devs with feedback (you should join their discord instead), and people like this that just want to hear themselves talk.

Xenos (Ambassador Of Indie Games) (@WrenchOfChaos) reported@plzbnicetome @Steam Yeah I did that for a long time with Nintendo and it sucked, I ended up with lots of games I ended up not liking, lots of wasted money, and steam actually let's you return games you don't like. Very weird how you want service to be WORSE. I don't EXPECT them to, they LET ME.
-
BYYONI (@BYYONI1) reported@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.
-
Bob Cross (@Odenwoodnlaser) reported@Steam why is your site infected with a phiishing file? Why is your login system and support system not working? Why has this been going on for over a week.
-
SwimmingLink (@SwimmingLink) reported@Steam The Steam Mobile App crashes upon pulling up the 2FA prompt making it impossible to log in. Please fix.
-
Charlesthegamer (@CharlieBut66730) reported@Steam Please Handle this Issue

Ojeyi victory (@vtory042) reportedGood evening.i have been trying to create an account with steam but it's not working. @Steam

Bernier. ARCHIVE (@Berneirffxiv) reported@Steam_Support you really are the GOAT. @Steam usally pulls though. so many years and any problem they do their best. Even if it did not work out they go above and beyond .
-
Spider (@Not_Spiderr) reported@kunii_tv @Steam say you were doing hours of troubleshotting and waiting for a patch to fix pc performance and it still runs bad
-
Cezary Kruszewski (@CezaryKruszews1) reported@KagutsuchiHeika @Pirat_Nation Actually issue is with @Steam as it was clearly stated by them that accounts cannot be passed on.
-
๐ฎ๐๐๐๐๐ (@crismu17) reported@ArmaPlatform @Steam Game still broken on Xbox ๐ญ
-
NADIM_GS (@NADIM___GS) reported@ArmaPlatform @Steam when will the problems with Arma Reforger that occurred after update 1.7 be fixed? We can no longer play on mod servers. You've ruined the game! The servers are crashing and giving us a ping of 999, and then the internet connection drops completely. What happened to the game?
-
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?
-
Ets (@ets_vn) reported@Steam please how do I get in touch with your support. I cannot login into my account as it has been stolen and I cannot reset my password. I have tried everything on the support websites but no success please help.
-
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.
-
PaLM AI - $PALM (@palmaierc) reportedMajor 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.
-
Indieanos Gaming (@Indieanos) reportedA serious issue especially for indie developers that @Steam needs to take seriously into consideration. If the player finishes the game, should he have the right to refund it? On the other hand, if this change is made and the game is short on purpose, the player is not protected.
-
Big Bro Studios (@bigbrostudiosAI) reportedI've had some rotten experiences with companies that have no humans in customer support! This is why I'd like to thank @Steam for their awesome customer support service, very helpful and kind!
-
PokeNeru (@PokeNeru_) reportedTFW 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
-
Arcamean (@Arcamean) reportedHey @Steam_Support @Steam Any chance of getting an option to IGNORE ALL UPDATES for select games? It's REALLY irritating when your favorite mods are broken because the game updated... (thanks Bethesda really wanted that :p)
-
Lord Tech (@mts_22natoo) reported@TheDailyGamer86 @PlayStation @Steam Hi there ๐๐พ What's seems to be the problem with your PlayStation account?
