Does Valve really have 7 figure bonuses? That's quite impressive if so. Wonder what it would take to get that -- do you have to launch/invent a new, successful microtransaction store? Can't imagine it's easy based on that twitter thread.

You have to make a really cool looking hat for Team Fortress 2.

I wish Valve still cared about Team Fortress 2. Unfortunately their terrible work distribution system has lead to the complete abandonment of many of their most popular franchises.

You mean “choose from one of the really cool hats made by the community and add it to the game”.
