    Hey @steam it'd be cool if your platform stopped yelling at me to re-up my login because I'm logged in two places when one of those is the steam deck I bought directly from you

  • wrightrandy247 Randy (@wrightrandy247) reported

    @Steam why won’t you issue a credit for a game that went on sale less than 48 hours after I bought it? You said I played 2 hrs and would credit the difference. Plus removed my comment on Reddit.

  • IronMan198XAD AJ Jones (@IronMan198XAD) reported

    @Steam #1 problem I have, PC steam app looses contact with installed game and NO WAY to show the app that it's still installed. Happened numerous times now requiring me to delete 75+Gb and re-download the game.

  • JooshW Josh⚡ (@JooshW) reported

    @Steam me and my friends are having problems buying a game on sale. We are from Argerina, what's happening? Is it just us or a country problem?

    @Steam It’s broken with kbm .. a joke of a game

  • outcoldman Denis Gladkikh (@outcoldman) reported

    I honestly would assume that @Steam devs know how to sync files for saved games. But seems like even they have issues with that.

  • JordanHardwic10 Doflamingo king of Dressrosa (@JordanHardwic10) reported

    Love spending 30 bucks for a game to have it crash at the same spot and apprently everyone is having this trouble @Steam

  • DaveFox51952346 Dave Fox (@DaveFox51952346) reported

    Hey @Steam, your system is refusing to let me log into my account. The Captcha continues to say I've failed despite selecting the right boxes. And there is literally no alternative to recover my account. Fix yourselves.

  • wRTm8eNqrM5uoyu 陳十一(非政府號) (@wRTm8eNqrM5uoyu) reported

    @Steam The mainland service of the steam platform is simply a garbage platform. Not only does it not have good games, but it also forces us to ask for the privacy information of our users😡😠

  • jeremymoorenc Jeremy Moore (@jeremymoorenc) reported

    Anyone else ever had an issue with @Steam being shady and saying your credit card purchase of a game failed when it very clearly didn't fail and is seen in your credit card transations?

  • Saarphire Saarphire (@Saarphire) reported

    Hey @Steam any known issues with PayPal and "YGO Master Duel"? Maybe only in Germany? After logging in with my PayPal account, it keeps loading forever and does not complete the transaction. Also going to the FAQ section didn't help, there is no information on this topic.

  • Wyum yy! (@Wyum) reported

    @CODLeague @Steam fix drops

  • NumickRider Numick (@NumickRider) reported

    @Steam why is your messaging system not working? Messaging chats have been dissapearing and I can't contact friends.
