You owe them games. Now you have to make games for steam.

Half Life 3, confirmed!

[-] MeatPilot@lemmy.world 100 points 11 months ago

They are going to send the dude with the valve on the back of his head to collect.

[-] xeekei@lemm.ee 8 points 11 months ago

did the guy with the valve in his eye quit?

[-] cley_faye@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

Rumor as it he never even worked there.

My guess is a card charge-back?

[-] Venat0r@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Or maybe the payment initially went through to pending status but then another purchase went through first and put them over thier credit limit or debit card balance.

I would've expected the steam transaction to be reversed and the game removed from your library rather than showing a negative balance though, but maybe it was for a microtransaction or something.

They’re going to start removing quality items from your cloud save games!

Too late, you'll log in tomorrow and see GabeN's little sprite hauling them down to Joja

[-] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 42 points 11 months ago

GabeN comes to your house and threatens to break your legs if you don't pay.

"This is my knife collection. This one is my favorite."

[-] bruhduh@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

You forgot about crowbar

[-] Poayjay@lemmy.world 29 points 11 months ago

Start getting your games repo’d

[-] Toes@ani.social 19 points 11 months ago

You're gonna get deported to city 17

[-] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

Oddly they are that amount short for half life 3.

[-] Witchfire@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

They'll sell your TF2/CS backpack and keep the profits. Goodbye unusuals

[-] Speculater@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Getting real IOI (Innovative Online Industries) vibes out of this one.

[-] jballs@sh.itjust.works 5 points 11 months ago

Time to become a Sixer

[-] stom@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

This seems like the cost of a game that they are unable to charge op for. Do you feel like they are not entitled to the money owed?

They could have just removed the game from the account, at least this way op is alerted of the issue and given a chance to correct it without an interruption to his entertainment.

[-] Clbull@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

You can get into a negative Steam Wallet balance?

[-] jtk@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 11 months ago

You're only allowed to play the game "Debtors' Prison" until it's paid off. You get $0.18/hour of play but 20% interest is compounded daily on the remaining balance.
