Valve Says It Will Now Allow Everything on Steam Unless It's Illegal or "Straight-up Trolling"

I can't really say that I like it. Valve's control over Steam has been, at least from the outside, quite bad. From games that don't even work, to games that are nothing more than a way to get easy steam cards to later sell in the market to lots of games that are almost straight copies from other more popular games. And that's with them controlling it! Imagine what will happen now!

I don't know, I think Steam has become too big for a Valve that hasn't grown enough to take care of it. I doubt it will end well.

Gabe just doesn't want to adress the probleem for a while now. It's kinda of ironic that a man of his age and stature doesn't understand that the previous gaming crash was largely because gamers lost focus on quality control. You would think Valve would take great steps in setting and keeping a good brand value for Steam. But apparently not .

The problem is competition, or the lack of it. Stores like GOG, Origin or UPlay don't come even close to the volume of games of Steam.

And that can lead to Valve not feeling the need to improve, which is never a good thing.
