You either die a hero, or live long enough to become the villain.
>>739884294Literally never was.Villains are always good at snaketongueing and mass mind control.
Reminder that /v/ is a Tim Sweeney board now

Steam has been around for decades now and its still a good serviceGabe is a fat lazy fuck that doesn't make games anymore but he doesn't seem like an assholeTimmy is a faggot doe
>>739884401/v/ worships Gabe, which funnily enough is what reddit does as well.
>>739884394He universally became liked among pc gamers, became successful by focusing on customer serviceall the "hate" against him is astroturfed, and the "gambling" is no different than pokemon cards
In 6 months time a $789 steam deck will seem like a bargain.
we trusted you gabe... and you stabbed us in the fucking face
>>739884394This, op is trying his best to snaketongue
>>739884294give me the rundown of them?
you don't actually have to buy steam hardware to play steam games :-)fundamentally steam hardware is just for hype and as a proof of concept, valve welcome third party hardware manufacturers who actually specialize in mass production to make their own versions cheaper and better. you can buy lenovo decks that run SteamOS.
>haha deck flop>deck flop>hahaha>WHAT THE FUCK DECK PRICES>YOU HAVE TO BUY IT HE FUCKED YOUWhat?
Bleszinski is the actual example
>adjust price of four-year old product that's already reached complete market saturation to break-even levels>somehow this makes you a villaintranny, are you okay?
>>739884294Or you can be Gabe.
>>739884813if you think about it the deck has been one of Valve's biggest successes, before the deck there was just slow chinky UMPCs mostly used by cyberpunk larpers, now handheld pc gaming is so mainstream that MSI, Asus, Acer, Lenovo are all making multiple models of them.Now that the platform has taken off they don't really need to worry much about their own hardware anymore.
>>739884294>criticize Steam, Valve, or GabenTIMMYSWEENEYTENDIESNOY
>>739884813>separating simplified and traditional chinese with the proper flagsholy based
Gabe Newell is a scammer and belongs in federal prison for fraud.Valve screwed over the Artifact fanbase by cancelling the Artifact 2.0 beta without even allowing users to invite friends like they said they would in January 2021 and does not deserve your financial support for these gross consumer-unfriendly practices.
>>739885627No one cares about Artifact, I hate Valve because HL3
>>739884595>focusing on customer serviceMost of it was forced by the eu
>>739884595>all the "hate" against him is astroturfed, and the "gambling" is no different than pokemon cardsthe loot box/case box thing could be argued since it's generally a blight on video games and fucking cancer but it really is strange how you can pin point a specific moment where Valve has suddenly started being strategically targeted with these accusations all at once by many seemingly unrelated actors
>>739884294Gabe is a rare example of a true Aryan soul which is why all of these hate campaigns against him never work. Everyone who plays PC games has personally benefitted from the purity of his Aryan soul, and our experience can't be gaslit away by brown shills. We know who he is and we know who you are.
Guess now that pc gaming is dying the mask is finally off
>>739884294
>>739884508>good serviceOnly if you are blind.
>>739884294Why is he a villain though>inb4 increasing hardware costsYeah no shit because component prices have gone up.
>>739888089Lets see. Cloud saves, hosted screen shots, forums, reviews, community hubs, chat, voice chat, remote play, steam link, steam input.... You'd struggle to even find a ton of individual programs to replace all these.. much less another client that gets even close.
>>739888187Yes he just hasn't made enough money off of grooming children into becoming gambling addicts and ripping off riot and blizzard lootbox slop. The manufacturing cost + tip has to be passed on to you, sorry!
fat fuck should have been castrated right around the time they released l4d2 so soon after 1 instead of just making it an updatejew rat
>>739888448I've never bought a lootbox from any company in my life, don't care.
