Valve Just Put Game Publishers On Notice...

[Bandy]

Valve is tired of publishers not taking their obligations seriously.

STALKER mentioned around 7 min mark. Whole vid worth a look tho...

Great channel BTW, just the news and reviews no 'posing'; and no, am not part of their studio.

Valve watched this Behaviour long enough and benefited from it. I believe it when realy something will be changed.

Something like A-life 2.0 obligations, for example?

What are you even talking about? There is nothing more wrong with this game then any other brand new game has day one. I would stop trolling as there are 0 refunds coming out because a few kids cry. Did you forget how even No Man Sky did not refund anyone and that was truely criminal.

Reported for trolling, hope this clear this thread out of here.

First off, no need to quote an OP, you just look like a forum noob.

Second, WTF are you on about? Knee-jerk reacting and reporting trolls around every corner? Maybe, just maybe look at my post history in this forum and see I am not trolling.

I would really like to say all sorts of negative things right now, but I have restraint and am not toxic like some we all now know.

Darmspoeling... is dat net zo ranzig als dat het klinkt 😆?

Zullen we het een keertje samen proberen?

That is nonsense.

Valve refunded me after 7.8 hours of "playtime".
I claimed misleading (alife 2.0 removed from Steam store and not in the game) and game breaking bugs, even in the prologue.
I proved this to Valve with screenshots and a website link.

My OP and the video is not specific to STALKER, at all, so stop the knee-jerk reaction and just listen to the news because it means something, hopefully, for all players.

My god, you can't all be that blind and smooth brained are you?

I saw that video yesterday.
This as a very very good development for consumers/gamers.
Thanks for posting this here.
This is also much better for Valve.

So GSC: i guess you'd better get your DLC promises together.
Perhaps it is wise to do so before you fix your broken beta test.
Valve already has to do damage control for you because they are refunding people.

Way to miss the point completely and going into full fanboy defense mode.
OP did not even say anything about Stalker 2, other than it being mentioned in the video, which is apparently already enough for you to go full ballistic, hilarious.

Did you even watch the video and listened to what is being said?
Probably not.
It is very good news for consumers btw, you should really give it a watch if you calmed down a bit ;)

Thank you for those who viewed and posted, not just knee-jerk reacted as white knights. You know who you are.

Though yes, in the current state of release and uncertainty, posting the video on STALKER 2 forum certainly can be misunderstood, but you need to watch the video to get the whole context.

It is about predatory marketing, feeding off players FOMO and need for hype, all things STALKER 2 marketing did. I am a long term fan of STALKER and indie games, I WILL buy the game eventually, but not at this time because it only reinforces bad publisher behaviour.

I am running out of balance for giving awards.
