    @Steam Can't sign in, changed password again, can't sign in, changed password again. Don't recognize my email address that you've had for years, missing download for Rome Total War, Steam support is ****, Steam website is ****. Don't respond to requests for support. Steam is ****

    a rising tide lifts all boats . . shouldn't @Sony offer service to relicense old Playstations so gamers can format hardware as @Steam box or otherwise run utility software like DVR, SDR tuner, or "Digital DM" LLM nodes for role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons? @Wizards_DnD

    @obakepam @Steam AI is not a problem. Shovelware predates AI by years.

  • HHG4Life
    HandheldGaming4Life (@HHG4Life) reported

    EA games are just so bad! The jankie game save setup between @EA and @Steam means your only ever one game crash away from a wiped save file and start over. 🤦 Been racing my son on NFS Heat. Was just leveling up to his level now back to level 1. Ruuuuuuubish!

    @Pirat_Nation @Steam @valvesoftware In an ideal world yes, but it's more to the effect of a grandfathered in aspect. Roughly 75% of everyone is there, other options are almost moot, as a cult following talks about convenance, and then complains about every aspects it creates. If one want's to be able to refund any game, expect that game to be 100 dollars, especially when purchasing it from a 3rd party store front. Don't mistake the issue. This is not a "Steam" issue, it's an informed consumer issue. So what Gabe Newell says is technically true, but the users are on auto pilot to the next fad, not proper investment. It is the consumer that makes Steam a "monopoly", not Steam/Valve itself. #StopKillingGames #DirectSupport #FundAllocation

    @heynavtoor why not talk to gaben and valve about making this part of the steam service? i think valve might like this idea. @Steam

    Went to @Steam to purchase @ParalivesGame which I’ve literally been so excited about but there’s an error when purchasing so Steam took my money, I still dont have the game & I have to wait 72 hours for the refund what the actual fck I’m so mad 😡

  • CHRISDBRAND
    CHRISTOPHER D. BRAND (AUTHOR) (@CHRISDBRAND) reported

    And just to take the piss, I had Invisible War as I bought the two together but that game just crashes on start, which turns out is a well known bug without a fix. So again @Steam cheating me out of a purchase. If they don't refund it I'm not buying from Steam any more. **** 'em.

  • Skippytmg
    Warren Harris (@Skippytmg) reported

    Does everyone forget on steam you can backup your game and then burn those files to a disc ? I get its not a perfect solution but I can still make physical backups to my games. @Steam should offer a new service that allows you to pay 5-10$ for games that participate to order a physical copy.

    Dear @SquareEnix can you please fix the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Pc Port on @Steam Its too janky, too many bugs and makes it impossible to play and enjoy. #Finalfantasyviirebirth

    @obakepam @Steam AI stream lines a lot of the work flow in game development and removes all the annoying **** developers had to deal with back in the day. Developers still have to go in manually build systems, add the art to the UI, fix bugs in the code etc..

    @itsmja00 @Steam I put in a refund request and they gave me an error lol I’m not even really expecting anything I just don’t morally agree with how they’ve conducted themselves. If the game was still running and being updated I wouldn’t request a refund, and I haven’t opened it in years

    @IntroSpecktive My assumption is by then they will have broken @Steam by then and it’ll all come crashing down

    I like Linux, and am moving to it slowly but @Steam and @Blackmagic_News needs to fix their Linux versions to run seamlessly and add the Code needed to fully use their software.

    Retro_Macchina (@Retro__Machine) reported

    @boobzwithaz @videogamedeals @Steam My problem is with trusting Sony to sell me a game on PS5, PS6 not having compatibility, and then Sony shutting servers down. PC through Steam does not have that issue - Have had my account since 2007 and every game I have purchased is still there.

    @4KTSlimeOwner @Steam Customer service is non-existence here they just lie so you can come here to complain and get no response, their support team is completely BS. Lay your complaint to OLHASLEUTH1 here on X for quick resolve

    @Parafolkmore @Steam @ParalivesGame Oh hm, if the cpu temp is higher than recommended then yeah that is an issue. But if the temp is fine I don't think you need to worry about it too much & I find that the "huge" mods get a bit heavy on my pc, but "small mods" such as for costume or optimization aren't as demanding

  • Brenten007

    @EGOSOFT @Steam @GOGcom One more thing, I wish you guys add in the extension mod where you check the mods and siee if the mods work before your game crash.

    @Steam still waiting for a response from your actual human customer service agents. I requested a refund for a game with 0hr played that's outside the 2-week window because of my hospitlization following cancer treatment and sepsis. You've automatically rejected it twice.
