I do just wish Valve was doing SOMETHING. Like, even if they just occasially improved the Steam Client. But it basically got one reskin in 14 years.

I'll believe that when I see it. Half-Life 2: Episode 3 was also in the works.

Are you able to add any further info to this? I assume you know about this courtesy of your position in the developer community, but do you know what's being upgraded, when it's expected to hit, or can you point us at a press release / etc?

It was leaked: https://www.pcgamesn.com/steam-universal-new-client-leak

IIRC, they were asked about it in this interview and confirmed it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atwE-K8y-ws

Might not be that exact video but I recall it being in one of the ones VNN did.

Not sure what the parent is referring to, but Steam Direct [1] is the most recent change to the Store. Before that there was the Discovery Update [2] released at the end of last year.
