My question is when is it time to declare Valve one of "Those"
companies? With Marc leaving after all this time it basically says
they Half Life is either written or just never going to progress
anymore. Valve doesn't have the drive or energy to make games anymore,
they only profit from the few they've made and spend the rest of their
time making business decisions.
I mean, there is the upcoming Vive of course but will that really be
anything redeeming? How have those Steam machines and Steam OS been doing?

Looks like nobody may be working on HL franchise any more (with
Marc Laidlaw leaving). Just hope the multiplayer stuff stays
working for a few more years.

Still, it would have been nice to get a nice little message
telling everyone, they'll tell us that the hats have stopped
dropping eventually, right?

Thanks man, that makes sense, i have seen they removed it
from the store too. Communication with the customers
leaves a lot to be desired by Valve though.
I wanted to surprise my staff of my community with items
(worth ~2 keys each) last year, special name/description
tagged and in the end gift wrapped. I pushed it from
christmas to new year (for other reasons though) and now
i'm still having them in my inventory, in hopes this would
be fixed soon. Well I guess once this works again, I'll go
with "Hey guys, random surprise for no reason other than
you are awesome!" :)
