Just wait a year, if valve doesnt deliver by then (shitty mod like games dont count), it will be an even heavier argument that valve is done for and I am pretty sure that valve wont do anything major within a year.

It will be like EA or activision.

To some of us who who went through other particular possibilities, we are already at that stage. Though we are a minority probably. The majority is that of non ancient fans who got burned. (newfags to gaming)

They're avoiding controversy, you fucking retards. You think they care if a bunch of limpdick sociopaths don't get to play their murder simulator on Steam? They've accepted games like that before because SJWs didn't give a shit back then. Now they do, and the amount of money they'll receive from putting the game on Steam pales in comparison to the amount of negative press they'll get if they put it on.

Try playing Smash T.V, faggots, a WAY more satisfying twin stick shooter than your edgy garbage will EVER be.

some bullshit technicality like the reddit "algorithm" removing certain subreddits that werent liked at the peak of gg.

"nono, you see we are the good guys, we did it for technical reason #3455"

No, it makes YOU retards mad. You are the ONLY PEOPLE who care about this shitty fucking game. What information has been posted about the game besides the initial trailer?

>>275910362
well these companies who censor stuff because they have the banhammer are basically like this.

They wont discuss the actual reasoning, the only tool that they use is violence (in this case violence on freedom of speech). I have seen too many in places of authority who do this and valve is not exempt from this, at the very least I managed to bail on them before they could do it to me or my expectations so that its no longer a surprise.

They dominate the market by a fucking country mile, you can say Valve has monopoly. And if a game from a small studios doesn't get released on Steam it may as well be considered as a commercial failure. Seems awfully like censorship to me.

This is just the first step of the downfall of Steam. First they ban hardcore edgy games, then mildly hardcore games.This will continue until they have lost all sense of direction and leadership. After that nobody will believe in the long lost integrity of valve. They will try to rescue the ship but all they can do is abandon it.Gaben dies.. And all because they made a stand on a socially unacceptable game. Now they will be pressured into "You banned hatred. Why don't you ban GTA?" They are probably already infiltrated by SJW that spout their nonsensical morale issues everywhere guilting our based distributors.

If Air Control is anything to go by, the broken product has to become a viral hit causing thousands of emails to flood their inboxes before they do anything. Even that might not be enough tho. Throw in a lawsuit from 3 different people & I guess they'll take it down in half a year.

Then it dissipated and was forgotten about entirely save for the occasional "What was his name again?" funposting.
Now its back again, and it'll be forgotten about in a week tops.

Gabe was born in a capitalist society and he is just doing what he can.
He made it possible for me to play counter strike for no cost to me for a long long time so I don't mind throwing him some cash now and then, he gives you so many chances to make it back too. I made 20 dollars in gaben sheckels yeasterday and bought my GF's kid a game on his wishlist. when you get older and have produced things you learn to see the value in what other people have built and appreciate them for it.

Its not the game itself we're mad about. Hatred looked like a mediocre game at best. The point is: Videogames have mostly been an unrestricted and boundry pushing platform, with the growing popularity of vidya however we get all kinds of "politically correct" games with a deep plot and moral. Thats well and good, the problem is people (especially the media and govt) constantly try to censor and control this lawless industry (the internet is similar) because unlike the news or public broadcasting they have some control over what is "ok to say" and what isnt. Most devs have forgotten that most games originated as surface level entertainment thats easy to distinguish from real life. Due to vidya's popularity, so many people from all walks of life can play, and small minorities keep calling for the rest of the industry to bend over backwards to satisfy them, which is only made worse when progressive news outlets blow up the cause and make it worse than it is. It should be an industry where people should be able to make and publish whatever they want, no matter how deep or surface level, boring or good, racist or progressive. Thats what it should be about, not about forcing an industry to bend over backwards for them. They should go into the industry and play ball against other devs and make games they feel are right. Not point the finger and have things removed because it hurts their feelings. The game industry has always had a rebellious nature but at this rate we're going towards the way of a public broadcasting network. Boring, shallow, too scared to take risks and step on toes.

Valve owns most the the video game market, they should therefore work like s public library and have the widest selection of videogames for EVERYONE. When you walk into a library to find a book on history, do you get mad that theres a book written by Hitler in the same library? No, because someone out there could read it. It doesent matter if it offends you, the resource deserves to be out there for anyone that wants to use it.

What it boils down to is Valve and Steam is in the position Diamond Comics Distributors were in with the Comics Code. Did the code technically make it illegal to print violent, drug, zombie content? No. You could still make magazines or run without the stamp. But if you did, Diamond wouldn't carry you. And if Diamond didn't carry you, you weren't going to reach the market. And if you couldn't reach the market, you couldn't sell.

People don't understand that censorship can take many forms, be it government mandated, or using social media to discredit individuals making challenging content so they'll never get work again.
>>
What happened here:

Polish devs, whatever their name is, marketed their game aggressively, playing on controversy.

Media took the bait and shilled against them. Valve decided that in light of potential bad press coverage, a controversial, but small indie game isn't worth risking bad press that could damage their brand. Since their job is to make money, for which they need a clear brand, that's a sensible move. A damaged brand costs in the long run far more than the sales of one small title would bring in.

Hence, they pulled the game soon after it was submitted. Now people seem to be under the impression that Valve ever had anything but making money in mind, and call censorship, instead of complaining about those that caused it in the first press (the media, using their publishing power) or organizing a counter campaign (to negate the power of the media, put them in their place and signal Valve that their userbase is more dangerous to their brand and income than the media).

In short,
>WAAAAHHHHH Valve wants to make money instead of cater to us let's blame them for being a corporation
>>
Valve is fucked.

There are no more good mods for them to buy up and rape with DLC.

All the good mods have already been bought by Valve or already made their own spinoff or attempts at it.
