    @KlassischeMann @valvesoftware @Steam you need to check, before making outrageous comments. the issue in hand is scalpers buying them. So, if users are getting upset mentioning about scalpers, then the "morons" remarks is baseless.

    @Steam @Steam_Support @OnDeck hey valve, I was wondering if someone can help me with an issue I have with my Steam Deck? My deck won’t go into sleep mode if I press the power button and I have to do it through the steam button which is a bit tedious. Would appreciate any help :)

    @HyperLovingBun @valvesoftware @Steam The controller isn't effected by RAM price increases, so that shouldn't be an issue...

    @RealMarcFoxx Okay👍 But I have to criticize @Steam @Steam_Support I have to perform a login to play offline. That's just wrong and have to change.

    @valvesoftware @Steam Fix the trackpads to function like the gyro system of the joysticks and you can remove the joysticks all together. Also needs more buttons to properly adapt to pc games. Might be neat if you also had a mini keyboard attachment like the old Xbox 360 controllers.

    @pcgamer Ppl say he's nitpicking but I can't wear clothes if the tag touches me. I think companies will release mods to fix issues & ppl will buy it @Steam is my favorite company but... I do worry about those details. The Elite Series 2 is almost ideal

  • DevanaUkraine
    Devana 🇺🇦 (@DevanaUkraine) reported

    @ukraine_world In @Steam , although Lvivska oblast is written correctly, but the city Lvov instead of Lviv. And when they comment, they are silent, but other users say that steam simply connected some international bases and they have a problem, because it is wrong there. @Steam_Support

    Adam Orand (@King_INF3RN0) reported

    @valvesoftware @Steam Only took 50 minutes of spamming the continue button. Maybe some launch-day payment processing server allocation? Monday at noon pacific is a low time for gaming, might as well, right? Gonna need to fix this for the Machine and Frame...

    Sydney Louw Butler (@GendoWasRight) reported

    @TankeryChan @valvesoftware @Steam Just FYI, Amazon pulled out of SA temporarily because of how much theft there was in the postal service. It came back after establishing a private shipping network, and clearly is happy with the risk level because Amazon is building a local warehouse here now.

    @SleepingFumo @Steam Glad someone understands the pain. It's gotten way worse lately too; always had issues but would maybe get 2x the actual playtime logged, annoying, but not the end of the world, but now I'm two hours into Higurashi and somehow already have over 200 hours logged!!!

  • olafkswg
    olafkswg - Buying Skins 95% (@olafkswg) reported

    Is this a planned change with no announcement or a bug? Broken trade history suggests the other, @Steam support can't answer this question.
