In a recent interview with Press Box PR, Raphaël Colantonio, the founder of Arcane Studios, shared his experience of working with Valve on the cancelled Half-Life 2 expansion called "Return to Ravenholm": “It took us a decade to move on from the pain of the Ravenholm project because we were incredibly excited about doing that game and we put in a lot of creative energy into it and eventually when the decision was made to cut it, we did not understand it as it happened. We were young and we were just refusing to see the reality of the situation and the reality was much simpler than the way it looked to us. It all came down to the economics behind Half Life 2 and how the DLCs were selling. They had a business ratio between how much they could spend and how they could make it to be worth it to them because it takes the attention of the entire structure on their side. They had tried to create something internally and then they had tried with an external team already in America but it did not work out because they were too expensive so they worked with us because they liked our work and we worked with them during that time. They thought, you know, why not try these guys? We seemed pretty effective and eventually, like the two other attempts that they had looked at, we went somewhere with it, and it was cool. What we had was really, really cool. But it still needed more time, and too much time to finish. Beyond it being cool there was a business call at some point where it was decided that it didn’t really make sense. It was very painful for us but it made sense, we grew up and got a little bit more mature about it.”

Valve has been hit by yet another class action lawsuit in the Netherlands, this time from Consumer Competition Claims (CCC). The CCC claims that Valve holds a dominant position in the market, estimated at around 85%, and is breaching competition law through so-called "Most Favoured Nation" clauses. They argue that Valve’s 30 percent cut on all game sales is too high and reflects monopolistic behaviour. Dutch consumers have suffered total damages of more than €220 million. Source: GameClaim

First look at the new Deadlock hero - The Doorman His abilities are heavily inspired by Valve's beloved Portal series. He places orange and blue portal doors within a 50-meter range of each other (extendable by an additional 50 meters with a third-level upgrade). Players, projectiles, and physical objects that enter one portal instantly exit through the other. His ultimate ability sends enemies to a hotel in another dimension where they must solve a fast-paced movement puzzle to escape within a limited time. "He's proper, he's polite, but the humble Doorman of The Baroness Hotel is more than meets the eye. A brisk ring of his Call Bell leaves nearby enemies disoriented, and his high-speed Luggage Cart knocks them right off their feet. Do you find yourself getting lost easily in the streets of Manhattan? Don't worry, The Doorman is here to provide a shortcut with his Doorway whenever the need arises. And only the most special of enemies get to experience the trip of a lifetime to The Baroness Hotel. - Please, stay as long as you'd like."

A week ago, devs of FragPunk released a new map called Toyland, which is a ONE TO ONE copy of CS2's Inferno. I hope Valve considers taking legal action, cause the fact that they're taking down community's 100% free passion projects but allowing a huge chinese publisher NetEase to steal their map layout is insane.

First, look at the new CS2 third-person animations. Character feels way more "light", but stable and less wobbly in general.

In opening ceremony for the International, Gabe Newell said that he's still playing Dota 2 every day. Occasionally "people talk shit" on him in chat, and about once a week they say "Hey, noob! Uninstall the game and **** *** **** **", but he's ok with that.
