Steam Support is gigachad.
Steam Support is pretty awesome and I have nothing but love for them as well...
Steam support is the GOAT. They help with product quality, help you get some missing items back,lock down your account after a getting hacked,
Seems like if a request is within reason and you’re respectable in the ticket there’s nothing Steam support won’t do, truly king shit
But Valve is an entire team of people, and Steam Support is some of the best support I've gotten from a corporation.
Xbox Game Pass

AI summary — not a quote
Xbox Game Pass receives mixed reviews from users who are increasingly torn between its high-value library and rising subscription costs. While it remains a popular way to sample expensive titles at a low entry price, many users express concern that the service makes games feel 'disposable' and discourages long-term investment in individual titles. There is also significant discussion regarding the service's impact on the broader gaming industry, with some viewing it as a 'financial black hole' for developers despite its convenience for players.
Pros
- Low-risk way to try $70 titles without a full purchase
- Frequent addition of high-quality and day-one releases
- Often bundled as a free trial with new hardware purchases
- Excellent for sampling games to decide on a future purchase
Cons
- Recent and significant price increases have soured sentiment
- Lack of native support for Steam Deck (requires workarounds)
- Subscription model can make games feel 'disposable,' leading to lower completion rates
- Users do not build a permanent library or 'invested' collection

If GamePass was reworked to work natively on SteamDeck, I would subscribe to it immediately.
I have Game Pass and I didn't even try it lol.
I actually have game pass. Free with my legion go I bought.
Between game pass price increases and console increases.
It’s a perfect example of how GamePass is a financial black hole.
