Only a tiny fraction of users face issues starting games on Steam.

I’d still be willing to purchase it, yes. I’ve experienced titles that didn’t work before. It often took weeks for support to arrive, but in the end, the delay didn’t matter much. lol (RPG Maker VX Ace, for instance, or Morrowind + Skyrim Legendary Edition.) Regarding the OP...I think he’s asking if you’d still buy Steam games despite the possibility they might not work for you?
I missed playing Dirt Showdown for a month and haven't touched SPAZ in the past two months. The issues seem to appear randomly—sometimes it works, sometimes not. Today SPAZ is back online. This feels like a complete system failure. The launch message didn’t show up anywhere. It’s not just a beginner who manages to run the game after six hours; the game cache is corrupted in various ways.
That's correct. It's been a whole year now. I initially thought it was just a minor glitch until I realized it was actually present in a very small percentage of cases—like 0.1% or 1 in 1000, or even 10,000. Such poor handling, steam. Acknowledges the issue and asks what else they're doing about it. At least let me know why it's not launching!
This is the stupidest thing that I have ever seen. I'm pretty much always able to launch my games, unless there's an actual problem with the game, Steam itself (happened once, .dll got corrupted and wouldn't let Steam launch games), or if my hardware isn't beefy enough.
Steam assistance is nearly completely ineffective. I rarely visit them unless I can't locate a solution online. The only time I've used it effectively was to recover my account after losing all the information.
