So you had to bring that discussion from steam here too, tough i could kept calm during it and word things much, MUCH better as i was pretty tried, my point still stands...
Here is news for you Data, steam makes shitton of money for Valve with all big relases on it and licenses they sell, so how would they be after money with this thing, there is high change game won't sell all that well and nobody gets anything, i explain it to you many times until i started flipping my shit as you were begin ignorant to the end, and the amount of money they (Valve) would get from this indie game is so minimal compared to everything else coming from steam licenses, you would have to be pretty paranoid to think this whole indie license is about Valve wanting to make money.
If anything, there is higher risk both parties, Valve and Chineseroom lose money than they gain anything from this.
Also...
Wrong, Valve won't hand out free licenses because it was a mod, unless they themself like it a lot, you have to pay 10,000 dollars for that license, and even then it has to be pretty damn high quality mod. If it really would work like that we would have stuff like The Sewers HL2 going indie.
And you are person what i call hater, not as in your normal hater who hates everyone and everything, but someone who always has to hate other people success and bash it down to deepest level of hell, it possibly can't be succesful, it possibly can't be great, it possibly can't be so good that valve would accept free license on it. That is just stupid, if the game is not your thing, ok, move on, but don't start bashing it with most stupidest arguments.
