@Steam Now it’s not even letting me try anymore because I’ve been “attempting too many purchases in the last few hours”. Fix your damn system.

@Steam "There seems to have been an error initializing your transaction. Please wait a minute and try again or contact support for assistance." It's in my cart. Been trying to throw my wallet at my monitor, but doesn't seem to want it.

@Steam feels completely unprepared this morning. Added my deck to my cart then had 9 errors before moving to card purchase stage. Now system says error initializing or updating transaction. They seem overwhelmed by the traffic and for a streaming company that’s unacceptable
