Steam Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Ricky (@ricanteja) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Easy fix for this is to add trophies to track progression. If a user has unlocked almost all achievements in almost two hours, you can’t get a refund. Of course trophies placement in game has to be balanced, maybe some should be a little out of the way to get.
-
Samson (@MrWho26) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Can't say I agree with you there...dispite the guy being able to complete your game in under 2h it should b absolutely possible for him to refund at that time. The amount of trash/meme games on steam is a big issue still and your simple solution won't work in such complex case
-
drakkillen (@drakkillen) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Whats the issue? Its working just as it should
-
Todd (Fox) (@Fox_Todd0370) reported@Scorcagon @Zoroarts @Steam No, it called a skill issue, making a game doesn't entitle you to people money because they tried it, if the makers had confidence in this game they would had released a demo. People can determine what they value their time and money, it's not up to the developers.
-
Rasen (@RasenTsuSenpai) reported@Zoroarts @Steam I get that it's frustrating but saying "waaaah steam fix the best refund policy in gaming please, people are mean" is not the take you think it is.
-
Ryan Watson (@RyanPHPDev) reported@Randomuser22147 @Zoroarts @Steam Agreed. If we have to choose between a 2 hours no question money back on games vs you making a more comprehensive game that people are willing to want keep or play for more than 2 hours, I would say that you are the problem.
-
StockStackr (@VeganCatBounce) reported@Steam you want to spam in the background, but when I go to log in to my account you have been spoofin, now we have a password issues? you pukes!
-
KasherAkasha (@AkebiAkira) reported@Indulgence82 @Zoroarts @Steam “Skill issue” Lowkey I think you should kill yourself
-
Mike. No, the other one. (@WeezSays) reportedAbsolute Trash behavior. A Completely unacceptable Gamer trend. Unfortunately, this is never going to stop. It isn't worth it to publish a sub 2 hour game on @Steam until they fix this loophole.
-
Dingo Love Simulator (@dingoman5001) reported@Zoroarts @Steam I'm sorry but that is your problem for making a game with barely a triple-digit minute runtime
-
bluglothree (@bluglothree) reported@Zoroarts @Steam This is an issue with the PC playerbase being entitled and cheap, which is why we can’t have nice things.
-
L9FRIENDLYSTYLE (@L9FRIENDLYSTYLE) reported@LiquidEffer @Zoroarts @Steam He has the solution at his fingertips yet you and others are here encouraging him to sit on his *** and do nothing about it and wait for the force he has no control over to fix his problem
-
Allan Smithee (@SmitheeAll88909) reported@Zoroarts @Steam Honestly such an edge case Steam has no incentive to do anything about it. I agree those who do this are scummy, but the only realistic fix is making your game longer.
-
Ebin Memes22 (@EbinMemes22) reported@Zoroarts @Steam if your game can be finished that quickly then skill issue tbh
-
Vi ***** ☽⛩☾ (@xVi_Vixenx) reported@Zoroarts @Steam A $5 game you can beat in almost an hour and a half...I don't think the issue is the refund policy in this case.
