Actual insider here: Steam is now going to allow you to sell your games

Caveat is that:

1. You have to wait a year after purchase in order to sell it

2. 50% of the sale goes to Steam

3. You can only sell 1 game at a time

4. You can only sell once a week

5. You can't price it more than what you paid it for

6. You can't sell it less than half what the current retail price is



Merry Christmas, anons

He's a legit old-oldfag who's involved with a lot of shit like /v/ the Musical and the /v/gas. He used to run a gaming news website with two other guys, so he has a lot of connections.

He was also on Legends of the Hidden Temple as one of the Blue Barracudas like 30 years ago. My jealousy forces me to trust him.

Valve screwed over the Artifact fanbase by cancelling the Artifact 2.0 beta without even allowing users to invite friends like they said they would in January 2021 and does not deserve your financial support for these gross consumer-unfriendly practices.

any updates on the rumor that Steam Frame can combine compute with Deck/PC for better performance aside from simple PC streaming? i think it was in the patents filed last year

>>725624989
Does that mean I will finally be able to short all those obvious future flops like Concord and Avowed to achieve generational wealth through derived financial instruments with high leverage ? Please reply.

Do /v/iggers really still cope post about HL3? Does Gayben need to scream on stage "I won't release HL3 fuck you niggers" to convince someone? Even then some sub 80iq brown retards will still say it's worked on...

>>725624526
do you not remember what Valve did to the Artifact fanbase anon
Realize they fucked up hard and mercy killed it? Yeah.

deadlock will longer be invite only
wow

The reason Half Life 3 and the Steam Frame will be announced together is that they expect you to play this game in a virtual theatre with 3D effects and stuff, so it can be played on a traditional mouse and keyboard, but it's best played in semi VR with finger tracking on the controllers like Half Life Alyx
>>725626057
Why don't you pull up his latest comments on it? From the HL2 doc. Or do you pretend it doesn't exist and just parrot fake news from 10 years ago

>>725624452
Man those were the days

>>725624989
>publishers actually agreeing to that
lmfao

that's the "big news"

>>725626057
hope is the last thing that dies

>>725624354
It would be funny that we get HL3 before GTA6

I don't think HL3 will be announced today. If anything, the leakers I trust are pointing today to be a hardware announcement, like the new VR headset they've got out.
It's something like $1200, so I'm never going to buy it anyway.
Everyone else is saying that it's very unlikely that Valve will announce HLX during a Steam Sale or something. And Tyler was almost angry in a stream yesterday at people saying it was happening at the Game Awards. I don't think these leakers know anything concrete to be honest.

They've been working on HL3 for years. It's been datamined multiple times. It's definitely coming soon

orange box 2 for the price of a single game
can you imagine the seethe from the AAA industry

>>725624989
Why would I want to buy used steam games?

>>725626289
no "leaker" ever knows anything until it's drip fed to them by their corporate masters

>>725626368
...Yes that's how leaking works.

You know what, fuck it. I have hope.
Let's try and be chill and pretend it's real.

>>725624309 (OP)
Introducing !!!
STEAM 2

>>725624989
Literally impossible.
I know for sure the developer of Factorio would never agree to have his retard game sold for anything else but the full price.

>>725626368
any time something is leaked and no one is sued over it then you know it was just a marketing tactic

you know what else is leaking

>>725626469

I'm not expecting anything but if they really do just drop something for it I'll shit bricks

tell me... bro
who is the G-Man?

>>725626289
You don't realize how much the Frame and Half Life 3 are related though, even though it's not a full VR game

>announcing a VR headset AND Hl3 at the same time
This is hard to believe because HLX is not going to be a VR game. People are already dooming that HLX is not going to be HL3 after all because of these conflicting leaker promises.

>>725626563
i dunno
I DUNNO

>>725626289
It would be funny if they showed HLX footage as part of the games played in the Steam Frame trailer announcement and Valve didn't bother explaining it.

>>725626343
Orange Box of what? I doubt Valve even remembers the Orange Box, it was a console thing and they don't do ports anymore.

>>725624354
and what makes this one different compared to the other dozen or so solar flares that ended up being a nothing burger

>>725626584
See
>>725626196

its almost been 20 years since episode 2 and i still fall for this shit every time

>>725626568
But like this >>725626584 says. Wouldn't people be confused if HL3 and a new VR headset was announced? People would think it was a VR game.
Unless HLX can be played on PC and VR, which would be interesting I suppose. You can't invest shit tons in VR without something to play if with that's good.

>HL3 is made by white boomers
>GTA 6 is made by pajeets
I know which side I'm choosing

>>725626053
You'd still need someone to buy them.

>>725626657
I think they are gonna put a lot of emphasis on the virtual theatre side of things

>>725626650
I think it'll be the opposite. It think it will be best played on standard PC but it will have integrated VR support.
At least that's what I would do. Making HL3 "best in VR" would not be received well by fans. I liked Alyx but for me that wasn't a good Half Life game it was a good VR game set in Half Life.

>>725626469
my itty bitty pretty little clitty

>>725624989
anons laugh but looking at paid modding numbers (valve took 70% from modders) this seems very appropriate for jewish valve

I hate waiting for something that might not be real, guys.

>>725626747
Yeah, announcing the game alongside new VR hardware would also make people think it's one of those VR-exclusive games. The perception issue could sabotage the game's first impression on people.

>>725626747
Yeah I'm not sure, maybe it's a thing where most play it on a monitor with mkb but the 3d depth effects and finger tracking is for vr
They had to figure out a way to both after Alyx and also make a full game with vehicles and not have people puking, so the VR theater solves that but still retains some VR features

>>725624354
Solar flate destroyed all copies of hl3.

hl3 is pretty much guaranteed to come out some day. there's too much money on the table. some day valve will lose its soul and someone very greed and powerful at the company will shit it out the door at light speed.

What if Gabe retires

But we do know. We've known now for 5 years. Valve isn't even trying to hide the gameplay concepts of it anymore. There's even a "TF" project in the works, but that's probably something to do with VR - not an actual Team Fortress 3.

Every single update for most source 2 games and even regular source games have HLX elements tucked in their code. Dota 2s recent update had some HLX stuff in it.

do you think they will release hl2 collection on source 2 first?

>>725627397
After the fucking fiasco that was Half Life: Source? I think Valve knows some talented group will just Black Mesa 2.0 but for Half Life 2.

>>725627240
he's pretty reliably leaked hardware details in the past so he can be considered a reliable source as much as anyone on shitter can be.
still take it with a grain of salt you can't trust anything until it's actually announced. I'm fairly comfortable with expecting a hardware announcement with a flagship game to be forthcoming though

Everyones saying that. I just want an announcement. Proof Valve is actually doing it. That's all I need. It could be 5 seconds long I wouldn't care.

It’s literally just a new VR headset. If it’s HL3 I’ll make a video apologizing to him for calling him a fat retard for all of these years. I will post it on /v/.

My guess is it can be for fanfare, big statement stuff showing people that 'Valve is back' or something to that effect.

So what do (you) actually want to happen in HL3?

Since I transitioned, the one thing keeping me alive was HL3 release.

I can't take much more of this!

Given moore's law is dead is a hardware leaker it is likely either a new steamdeck or steam machines round 2.

>>725629735
the persistent rumor is steam frame being announced today and half life X/3 in the coming weeks

>>725629663
no. you can only buy them through the terminal in game for hundreds of real dollars so gaben can buy another yacht.

It's the steam frame. Has to be. The VR leaks are by reputable industry insiders and the HL3 announcement "leaks" are by literal whos.

My uncle actually works in Valve's top R&D team, working on cutting edge physics software that is implemented in upcoming products. He told me to keep quite about this, but he said it's ok to tell you guys - so I can confirm it's HL3.

>>725630480
I already played and beat it, on my SteamDesktop (also future commercial product). It's pretty good.

>>725630480
based uncle

Everyone who has worked on this new Half Life project find it incredibly hard to keep quiet about it. I forget which forum but some Valve employee tried to calm people down on a forum about HL3 speculation this year or last year and he spilled the beans a little bit too much.

>>725630571
Yeah he's cool. And I get much classified info on future projects from him. You think HL3 is gonna be big? You ain't seen nothing yet, I'll tell you that much.

>People unironically think Half Life 3 is coming out
has to be larping zoomers who heard second hand about Half Life 3 confirmed memes, lemme guess it started trending on tiktok?

>>725630760
my friends grandpa told us about half life frfr cap

>>725630760
My uncle actually works in Valve's top R&D team. So I have classified info from him that says HL3 will be shown - today. Make of this what you will.

>>725630760
Zoomers have been aware of Half Life since they were like 10. Do you not know what Gmod is?

>>725627864
That was before they made Portal 2. There's a reason they had to patch in a new ending for 1 the week before 2 was announced.

If they make Hal Life 3 VR literally no one will get to play it.

>>725632102
It's no longer a gimmick, it's just not affordable in exchange for what you get.

It's the steam chip
A brain inplant that takes you inside the games. Smell, feeling and taste are all simulated.

>>725632102
>>725632138
It's not a gimmick, it's a great leap forward for flight simulators... and that's about it.

Team Fortress 3 for PlayStation 5 Entertainment System

>>725632025
how is it better than their old headset? wouldn't a standalone be worse than something that uses your pc?

>>725632408
No. Deadlock isn't finished yet. They haven't even added the casual mode they said was in the works.

>>725632493
Not him but theyre like one map revision (and a decent amount of character visual updates) from the game being in a releaseable state, the secondary balatro/survivors style random item mode isnt a core requirement for 1.0

>>725632408

It'll be a deadlock public beta release date.

>>725632714

do they need to? 100,000+ people including me got invited to it they already have massive feedback

So their asian distributor partner just rebranded

Are they going to announce more than just the vr headset?

>>725633393
about two weeks

>>725633416
probably not

>>725633416
Depends on what Valve wants to do and how lightweight it is, like if its lighter than an apple vision pro you could watch movies and shit on it

>>725632367
In fairness, Apple released the most overspecced piece of “this is for everyone” hardware I’ve ever seen, for three thousand five hundred dollars, and it wasn’t compatible with anything. No killer apps at all, if you will.
I got to try one and it was the coolest VR ever. I WANTED to buy it, but could I play GT? No. Flight sim? No. SteamVR? No. Oculus shit? No.
All you can do is FaceTime with uncanny valley “people” in the room and do work just like you could on a desktop but you feel like Iron Man.
The thing is just so awesome and it’s going to be in the trash bin for all time because of how stubborn Apple is and how every VR dev needs their own incompatible spec with a walled garden.

>>725632992
god I wish

Anything Valve announces sucks man had to wait so long for the Steam Deck to actually be sold in my country and even then it was parallel imports

>>725624989
Honestly this is what the industry wants. Before digital I kept a small library because I'd trade shit in for new shit. I also never owned a game I didn't beat, much less owned one I never even booted up. With multiple libraries now I buy games on my own schedule, the monkey Island 20 dollars is true and I let the publishers take the hit on inflation. Problem for the industry is even when I can sell digital used I'm not going to let my library fall so low that I don't have years worth of shit to occupy myself and I'm still not buying shit on launch.

OPs pic is not a trustworthy leaker. We know Valve is announcing something in November but everyone is saying it's HL3 when there's no evidence for that. It's most likely hardware.

vr won't take off until we get full body tracking and haptic feedback

>>725634182
>>725634239
both of these.

Literally any "3" game from them would make my year. I've loved every second game they've made.

>Portal 2
The highest reviewed PC game of all-time (on Steam, top 10 otherwise), great fun

>HL2
One of the most influential games of all-time, fun, fantastic modding scene

>TF2
One of the most influential (for good and bad) multiplayer games ever, some of the most fun I've ever had online

>L4D2
More of the most fun I've ever had online.

Any sequel would be good. I'd be happy with anything. Just no spin-offs or hardware, please Valve... I don't want VR.

No evidence of that. Unless you count Deadlock as a hero shooter, but that's not finished yet.

>>725634457
Valve still manages to pull out some surprises sometimes, not everything gets to code diggers like Tyler, so I have a little bit of hope for the other franchises.

But you're right, if there's ever going to be a big game reveal in the next year, it's 95% going to be Half-Life 3. Which, fuck me, is obviously still a massive deal, so I guess it's not a loss.

>>725634839
they are slowly updating and balancing the game, trying different metas and porting assets over from neon prime. the gameplay is solid but there is still much to do and test, one of the biggest problems right now is the steamroll nature of the game
