People talk a lot of shit about Valve without having a clue, a consequence of their secrecy and their position as a premier game developer. I wouldn't trust anything that is said about Valve that didn't come from someone who has worked there.

Tyler McVicker/Valve "News" Network is a major component of this. His interviews with Valve are great. His speculation is trash.

a lot of these comments about valve stem from the somewhat infamous tweets of a former valve dev, though

Yea but thats still ONE guy who might be bitter for one reason or another. It's hard to get an objective look at Valve like this.

What we get is utterly filtered.

Wasn’t his Alyx speculation on point?

To be fair every broken clock will be right twice a day. He throws out a lot of stuff, so of course some will be right sometimes.

He has been getting better recently. But he absolutely still needs to realize how much weight his words have.
