Shitposting aside. I've been to Valve HQ. Nice ass building. They actually have a massage parlor in their offices.
>>337698871
Of course they have, selling hats to retards while you spend $0 on the community brings good profits.
>>337698967
They told me a story once where a guy wanted to buy, not joking, $5000 worth of hats. They called the guy and were like:
>"Hey, are you making this purchase?"
>"Yeah."
>"You are aware you are spending well over a thousand dollars, correct?."
>"Yup."
>"All right then, just checking."
It blew their minds that someone would spend that much on virtual hats. They were a little worried, honestly.
>>337699452
I doubt anyone at valve could have possibly predicted that hats would have gone down this route, but now they've basically been sucked into the profit stream and there's no point trying to paddle against the current.

No, i dislike the kikes in valve but your history is retarded, if that happened they called to check if it wasn't a mistake not because "lol i can't believe how retarded you are".

The hats aren't the problem, Valve ignoring every other aspect of the game for 6 years is.
Dota 2 in 3 years has a competitive scene promoted by Valve were the prizes are millions of dollars.
TF2 has an active community for almost 10 years now and people have been calling for competitive play and no one has ever listened, now suddenly Overwatch is announced and they start getting rid of hackers and beta testing ranked play, this is fucking bullshit.
>>337699452
Why are they worried? Focusing on whales like that is what they should be doing considering what they did to TF2.
>>337699897
There are heroes in Dota 2 who's models haven't been changed since the alpha. It's bullshit.
>>337700063
And thats a problem? you are a fucking retard.
>>337700158
Considering Slardar looks like trash, yes. Considering the money this game has raked in, it should be polished to a fucking shine by now.
It's Minecraft all over again. "Good enough" really is the standard now.
>>337700336
>HURRR DURRRR MUHH AESTHETHICSSSS RUINING THE GAMEE HURRRRR
Fuck off retard.
>>337700158
>the game being unfinished isn't a problem
videogames are fucking trash now
>>337700580
>unfinished
Is it missing textures?
>>337700638
It's a placeholder model, just like with viper and the former zeus.
They also still haven't fucking released Abyssal Underlord
>>337700476
Cool enabling attitude.
>>337700063
ZEUS

>Old valve: Here's some things I found on the internet to prove my point. I actually found some pics that kill my point, but fuck me I don't care.
>New valve: I just searched up some shit and plastered it everywhere because I have no idea what I'm doing.
>>337700901
Enabling what you mongoloid?
>>337700875
>comparing a old model in a shitty moba to a whole mode in tf2 that has been missing for 6 years
How dense of a cunt are you daily?
>>337701129
Oops, I also forgot:
>Oh wait, there's some stuff that means jack shit on Old valve. Let's just put the Valve logo here. Why? Fuck you, I have no reason for anything.
>>337701129
>>337701173
Can you drone any harder?
>>337701273
Nice argument.
>>337701273
I'm not droning, hell there are some things that are wrong with Valve today, I'm just calling you out for making an awful picture with no sense of direction. Try cleaning it up and taking out pictures that don't mean anything.
>>337700901
>Prospero will never happen
fuck you for reminding me
>>337701273
that was a good day for BTFOing
>>337701173
>valve being lazy for tf2 is worse than valve being lazy for dota
>>337701273
>Actually money is how the community steers work
>someone points out that people have been doing it without money for years and years
>people throw money at him
>not even at him, at reddit in his name
>>337701273
Reddit did something right for once. Fuck his mentality.
>>337701641
It's equally bad, It's the same thing on two different occasions, and even though Dota has the competitive league, TF2 is still wildly popular with many people. It's equally bad on both fronts.
>>337701641
>valve not updating a polygon is worse than valve completely forgetting that a community exists
Wew lad, do you practice in being this retarded?
>>337702405
The point's just that valve's a bunch of lazy greedy cunts
>>337702615
No, the point is that you are a retard comparing a fucking model to a whole community.
>>337700901
Why the Brazilian flag?
>>337703328
Because why not? He just put a bunch of shit in that pic without any reasoning.
>>337703328
>>337703718
Haha yeah, can't imagine why the Brazilian flag would be associated with a cheap/f2p pick up and play game dev.
>>337701912
>reddit did
Valve are a greedy company
>>337700901
Art existed before art stores. Giving a platform for modders to be able to sell their works is not bad.
>>337700901
>Old Valve: Makes two games and buys out mods of those two games to sell them back to the community as different games.
>New Valves: Does the same shit but this time with games AND hats
Valve has always been about the money.
>>337699642
You just said the same thing in a different way you idiot.
>>337699452
I bet this was back then when hats were a new thing. I'm pretty sure people spend more than that right now.
>>337704586
Nope, you worded it like they were in the office laughing at an idiot.
