@Steam Do this Valve run your Steam Deck with and without the patch on my youtube channel guide in windows, or program a fix in SteamOS. Or you could just not care, thats cool too.

@Steam @Steam_Support You HAVE to fix the interface to allow zoom. At this point, I physically cannot see most words to read without being a foot or less from the screen. Do something for your visually impaired users!

@screenrant Good luck with this. I have submitted 4 requests for a refund. Two from today and get the same automated message from @Steam saying I played over 2 hours. They should issue a statement and a universal refund to those who want it.

@steam why can't I download Inscryption anymore? I purchased it. I played it yesterday. But today when I try to start it, I just get an error saying the executable it missing. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I tried clearing download cache. I tried changing region.

@Steam I bought two identical steam cards as Christmas gifts from Walmart in December. Gave them to one person. One card worked, the other card didn’t. Walmart said it’s not their problem and I should contact you, but I can’t because I don’t have an account.

@SlippyPerigee @EVGA_JacobF Glad to hear some can play. I have a i7-7700 and a RTC 3080, a very capable machine, and if I get 40fps I am lucky. This is on mostly medium settings as well. I am not the only one that has this issue and @Steam refuses to refund money for an unplayable game.

@beenu212 @Steam Hey Suha This sounds like it is your card issued by your bank, or your paypal, whichever you used. Steam issues the refunds right away and it's usually up to whoever is processing your payments to put it back in your account.

@DrizzintahL @Steam Friend of mine way back got hit with the "steam update" deleting their games bug. Got sorted, but the steam update game deletion bug did become an early meme back then. My issue, sometimes Steam won't let you move a game from one drive to another and gives no indication why.
