Steam has benefited from a long period of good quality stable leadership, but as Gabe gets older I get more and more concerned for Steam.
I love the service, I've used it since launch alongside Half-Life 2 etc on PC, but I am extremely worried how it looks 15 years after Gabe Newell dies or sells. I would not be shocked to see Microsoft buy them in the end.
There's no public plans for what Valve looks like in the post Gabe-era, and as a privately held company there's not much need to explain/disclose either. I agree its been run great until now, but the future is unclear.
- la_oveja 4y agoValve is full of good people, like minded with Gabes ideas. I dont fear for Valve.
- Sakos 4y agoIsn't Gabe one of the rich guys investing in life extension? If we're lucky, they figure it out before he dies and he can become Steam's eternal steward. Otherwise I absolutely see the platform going to shit once he's gone.
