Gabe Newell AMA tomorrow

Make refunds part of the review stats.
I'm not talking about subjectively bad games, i'm talking about buggy and broken messes that are put on the store by crooked devs to cash in. They have absolutely no business being on the steam store.
how is that any different from the situation we're currently in though? It just means people will keep asking them "comfortable talking about it yet?!"

Why is your client bloated with pointless features.
Why is your store full of crap.
Why is your store so expensive.
Why is your a customer service still beyond bad even after all the years of complaints.
Why do you find all the above acceptable.
How have you managed to get so many fan boys to have the attitude that steam is the almighty and they won't buy games if they aren't on there.

You know considering the companies ethos, if most people simply didn't want to do customer service, then it doesn't get done nearly as well is it should and the hiring practice into that company are very niche.
So i think the answer to all the bad things about the consumer end of Steam are because they run themselves like a playground with nary a care, because there's plenty of cash coming in.

honestly i wish they would just outsource it. It's not like there isn't a huge number of companies that would love to take over the customer service side. It wouldn't even cost them that much. Then they get to keep their company ethos and also serve customers better.

Is this happening at 11am our time?
I don't think that would be a problem if they actually wanted to make HL3. They already confirmed that HL and Portal are in the same universe, so if they give us a HL game where you can have both the portal gun and mavity gun that would be enough innovation for me.
HL2 and its episodes still have better physics and facial animation than most games released today, so imagine what they could do in HL3 (simultaneous motion capture on both face and body for all characters - has that been done in a game yet?). Also if HL3 was announced as a VR game that would be all the incentive I need to invest in VR gear.
I think if they get to 10 years since EP2 and still have no plans to develop the series further, they should sell the intellectual property and let another developer give the fans what they want, although I could see that going horribly wrong if it's given to the wrong developer.
11PM
Don't forget all the hentai games that I can't seem to filter out of my recommendations despite adding their tags to my "less of this ****" list. I don't want to do weird sex games with cartoon criminal girls who definitely look under age.
Nobody wants innovative, you can get that anywhere. We just want to finish the story.
i'd rather they tell the story outside of a game. As you say, the game is unlikely to live up to the hype. Just release it as a novel/graphic novel/movie.
