No they are focussing on the online F2P market with DOTA 2 and TF2 because that's where the money is at this time.
It's better than constantly making bloated AAA titles and making losses every year.
Valve are not directionless. Gabe Newell knows where he wants the company to be,,you should go watch his DICE speech.

If Valve don't want to make standout titles any more (and prefer to get money from F2P and from being a storefront), they should be upfront about it. Get Reddit and VGC and GAF to shut up about how awesome Valve is as a dev, because those days are behind them.

Does DOTA 2 have to come in a physical box with a disc and manual before its a standout game?
You don't think saving PC gaming is "awesome"? Steam's explosion in popularity over the past 5 years has done wonders for the platform.
We are now getting games that were traditionally only on consoles, when only a few years ago the PC was only considered good for MMOs and Strategy games and most games came with some draconian DRM. SecuROM and GFWL went away because of Steam.
