Valve is not working on a new console but a 'wearable PC'.
Fan projects Team Fortress: Source 2 and Portal 64 have shut down after Valve intervened in their development.
First they open Steam up to more AI, now they are shutting down fan projects when at one time they used to support or even give the fans jobs.
Wonder what's going on with Valve at the minute.
There's potential that Valve had already planned to bring Source 2 to TF2 officially after Counter Strike 2. It's been getting some renewed attention lately.
You got Nintendo to thank for Portal64 being taken down. As for TF2, most likely it's due to the probability of Valve working on a source 2 port themselves. It's sucks but Nintendo are the biggest pricks in the business and not letting this drag out into a huge court drama is the best decision.
Valve has updated its stance on AI games on the Steam storefront, allowing creators to publish AI-created games.
Hell no. I want games that have been made by creative minds who have a passion for their craft, not a bot with a penchant for plagiarism.
So instead of paying for an engine and assets to create a game they are paying for an engine and assets to create a game.
Valve has officially warned against inhaling the Steam Deck vent fumes in an official response due to potential health hazards.
Wow people will huff anything nowadays some people just have way too much time on their hands.
Another reason to love the PlayStation Portal, no chance of breathing in noxious vapors.
Get a Steam Deck they said, to which I reply, what are you high?
obviously
I think after all the articles, everyone figured this by now.
Valve ARE making games, but it's not Half Life 3.
So instead of a console platform or PC box. We are getting a new gaming platform more mobile than cell phones... Not a bad idea, but certainly one I wasn't expecting.
Conceptually its a dream come true, but it sounds more like one of those things ahead of its time. Like the electric car, or um those other things that are come up with released and fail, but decade or two later are revamped in a new way and approved by everyone.
I might pre order on steam.
I hope it works with half life 3. Maybe hl3 is in the future?
