What is this man up to now? Why haven't we heard from him for so long?
>>343522031
they're constructing his exosuit so he can walk again and ascend the golden throne.
He's diligently running the biggest gaming company in the world
he's not todd howard who makes talk show appearance every time he releases new DLC
Vive, ASSFAGGOT 2, and some other shit that they won't talk about publicly. There are rumors that left4dead 3 is coming.
I guess they're working on the next half life but I've given up on that stupid shit.
>>343522031
He's still reading emails, he did promise to read every single one of them.
Are you implicating an implication that he lied about it?
he likes to count his own money
>>343522528
>I guess they're working on the next half life
>>343522031
Why don't you email him and find out?

>>343522528
>I guess they're working on the next half life
This decays my electrons
>>343522532
Multiple people use his email, which means there is a big chance they all do get read, just not by Gabe.
We will never have a new singleplayer valve game ever again
>>343522031
Because he is dying.
>>343522031
He is too busy developing vr headsets, steam machines and other useless shit.
>>343522832
DEAR
Remember when he called that guy an ass? That was weird.
>>343523471
Remember when someone sent him a death threat? That was weird.Not really.It was kind of funny.

GAY BEN
>>343522031
Ate himself.
How are Valve going to celebrate their 20th anniversary?
>>343523471
I imagine you have to fuck some serious shit up to be called out by gayben
>>343522528
There's no way they'd release Left 4 Dead 3 before Half-Life 3. Can you even imagine the shitstorm if they released a game with a "3" in it that wasn't Half-Life?
>>343523630
When is that?
>>343523471
Remember when he tried (and failed) to convince Reddit that paid mods are good and not complete cancer?
>>343523749
DOTA 3

good. That shit was never good
>>343524276
Between that fiasco and Valve being a company that profiteers on gambling, I sort of lost all respect for that company. It's amazing how they burned it all away.
Though I suppose that just brings up the moral question at large. If you can take advantage of people, should you? Someone's always going to take the money of idiots, but should you stoop that low first?

Making video games

Looks like a fat john lennon

Anon it's time to let go.
It's been too long. And even if it were released people have been anticipating it for so long it could only be a disappointment at this point.
>>343522031
he's been valiantly protecting the VR industry by fighting zuckfuck and the oculus machine
What part of the development process of games does Gabe actually do?
I thought at this point his job was more related to the actual business side of Valve.
>>343526446
Why did you ever respect Valve? They made one good game, Half Life 2. Steam is an all right platform but it has it's problems and nowadays they only make mindless zombie shooters or pinch pennies out of players with mobas and shit like that. I mean when was the last time they even made a game?
I don't know why Valve has such a rabid fanbase. They literally do nothing but nickel and dime the consumer and you all ate it up until they got public with it.
>>343527419
You don't consider them in any way responsible for the explosion in popularity of PC gaming in the past 10/15 years?
>>343527520
Well of course, Steam really helped with that and I gotta give credit where credit is due. But look at the modern state of PC gaming. I'm not even meming here. Modern PC gaming is awful.
He's currently soaking in his hot tub in a swimming pool on a yacht in a bigger swimming pool in a lake on a private island of microtransaction and Steam money.
>>343527520
What explosion? People have always played PC games. Now and back then. Steam hasn't done shit but become the best shop around. Hell, early Steam was fucking garbage, barely worked and people only used it because it was fucking mandatory just to play our favourite mods.
>>343522385
>the biggest gaming company
>what is EA
>what is tencent
>>343527697
You're telling me the amount of people playing PC games hasn't increased massively in the time I mentioned?
>>343527785
League of Legends sure is big on steam, isn't it.
Do we have to thank Riot too for PC gaming popularity now?
>>343522031
Last time we saw the gibbering goblin creature he waddled out to defend paid mods
>>343527697
>Steam hasn't done shit but become the best shop around.
so you're admitting valve is the best...and asking everyone why people respect valve....hmmm
>>343522031
>What is this man up to now?
Lunch.
>>343527826
Are you going to address any of the things I'm saying in my posts
>>343522362
>>343527651
its not just the PC though. Consoles suffer greatly too. Entire industry has cancer
>>343528165
Oh yeah, undoubtedly. I didn't meant to imply consoles were better, we were just specifically discussing PC gaming.
>>343528020
Well, it's only been one question and it'd be what I'm replying to so yes. People growing up in an era of technology and therefore having more PC's than in 2000 has nothing to do with Valve. They're about as responsible for PC gaming popularity as Blizzard are. They're no great saviour.
>>343522031
He probably realised he should lay low for a while after the paid mod fiasco
>>343528267
>They're about as responsible for PC gaming popularity as Blizzard are. They're no great saviour.
At no point did I say they were solely responsible for it though. But to claim the convenience and utility of Steam has in no way contributed to the rise in popularity of PC gaming is silly.
>>343522385
Valve is a fucking retailer. They don't create content anymore, just sell it.
he is busy getting rich with your money
>>343527756
Valve is bigger. Gaben alone, is worth more then EA
>>343528232
GIVE ME HL3
>>343527419
>HL2
>good
welcome, another underage !
he's stuck in traffic
>>343522031
He tried pander to consolefags but didn't do well, now consoles are trying to pander to PCfags.
IDK what he will do aside from VR, he looks like he wants to do good to PC gaming but isn't acting much lately.
>>343530053
Also, he probably foresaw that console companies would try to compete to PC in some way, and did this steambox shit to see if it would work.
Not to mention that he wanted to shutdown greenlight system but it's still there.
seems like that they aren't making many decisions and the decisions they make aren't doing much.
