Days ago i read a post about wanting Vavle to sell dota to other companies like Activision. Activision is currently developing call of duty, iam big call of duty fan and my god, Activision ruins the whole franchise, from gameplay to campaign,the meta is literally unbearable , shotgun has been dominating the meta for a year and for some reason they fail to nerf it multiple times and even gave it cool skin. For someone that dont play Cod, imagine Sb being super meta for a whole year, instead of nerfing it they give it more speed and an arcana So yeah iam grateful that Vavle is our devs
Valve is one of the most trust worthy developers; they are 10x better than nonsense like blizzard, yet they are frustrating in other ways. It always feels like they are solid at making and maintaining great games, while also feeling like they just don’t want to put in the effort to do more. Seeing DPC dwindle and with how they have treated the game in the last couple years feels like there is a bit of a disconnect. Maybe ice frog really is gone. The cancellation of TI, mixed with the last minute cancel of the winter major show we’re just ridiculous. It’s like they are SO good and I’m so glad they stick with dota, yet they just completely faulter in other ways. Part of me thinks it’s just the fact that they don’t even have to do any of this with steam sales. Valve could pack up and exit the gaming industry anytime they wanted and just use steam but they are still developing their franchises and just leaving them out to die at the same time. They are such a catch 22. But cannot hate them. We are blessed to have valve in the current gaming industry. BLESSED I tell you. But damn does it still hurt.
