Anything im forgetting from the cursed cards series?

>>388213682
Yeah fuck valve. Their games are either online meme garbage for underages or pretentious shit.

Steam as a service is objectively a better contribution to gaming than valve games. Portal was kinds neat but nothing special. CS games were great i suppose so that's an exception. Both half lifes were just tech demos.

>>388214407
George hate the studio system and wanted to do things his way. Once he got to doing Empire he started to become the very thing he hated. There was a lot of tension between him and the director of Empire where he would effectively try to be the second director and would say things like "we could have done this for cheaper" or say a scene was good enough meaning "I don't care about quality. I want efficiency and I want it done cheaply." like any typical Hollywood bean counter would say.

Gabe wanted to make Valve into it's own independent thing, free from having to work with any other companies telling him what to do. He accomplished that, but now became the very thing he wanted to break away from. Valve is now just another corporation game maker that uses others to make money for them. They don't even need to make games anymore since everyone is willing to suck their dicks to get their games distributed on Steam.

The only difference between Gabe and George is that George actually finished the story he started.

The Treehouse stream after one of the E3s. They advertised their games and /v/ said thank you.

>>388217350
Audry has milkies
Everyone else was a shining light in an e3 that was garbage. I think people really appreciate the toned down atmosphere and interview style promotion of their products. Stage presentations are cancer, just show me 2 hours of gameplay

>>388213773
Any chance we can send a card to EA and Disney?

I wish we lived on different timeline where half-life 2 beta would become true hl2. Who knows, maybe we'd even have proper half-life 3 by now

I really dig the pre-release hl2 stuff, it has an eerie style which is somehow more cartoony than the final product but also more dark and mysterious

Best part was he posted "thanks /v " as if it was some subreddit that gave him the card.

I'm glad people have given up on valve. Steam is holding back the next golden age of pc gaming with it's easy access to garbage indieshit.

Steam is the idea guy factory, all they sell is bullshit ideas that never pan out or get finished.
Digital distribution could have been done in a hundred different, better ways, steam was just there early.

neo-/v/ did that, /v/ never cared enough to collectively make some shitty card for people like Gabe or Kojima.

maybe there are reverse phantom thieves on /v/

>>388219671
Neo-/v/ doesn't mean what you think it means.

>>388215992
Literally
>THANK YOU FOR MARKETING VIDEO GAMES TO MY AUTISTIC TASTES

>>388213403
I don't see how the W101 card made for Kamiya backfired.

That was made long before the Neo-/v/ term was ever coined.

>>388220023
Give it time anon.

>>388220023

>/v/ sends a thank you card to Nintendo Treehouse
>They turn out to be SJW-pandering tools who do shit localizations and censor games

Didn't /v/ sent something to Kamiya before Scalebound got canceled? Everything they touch turns to shit. It's like a reverse Midas Touch.

>>388221932
it could have been good, but I really believe that Microsoft forced them to do a lot of shit they didn't want to do
a Kamiya game with multiplayer just seemed so strange and then there are the rumours of how they wanted him to pull more people from the Nier team over to his own team to sabotage Nier Automata on PS4
it just looked like it ran like shit, but it had potential
the way it was just cancelled after we'd recently seen new gameplay too was strange

and if it does come out that MS did give Kamiya a hard time, then it proves /v/ and meme magic are real, since it's virtually the exact same situation that Kojima had after he got a card

>>388222172
You mean exactly like the midas touch, but with shit.

>>388222172
Its /v/'s meme magic. /v/ shitposts about games being bad for so long that it is starting to effect reality now.

>>388222508

I'll make the thread.

For guidelines, I say we make the card look like >>388225435 ie, make sure you have a white background with a short message. MAYBE a small picture. I don't like the "blocky" look of the cards like this one >>388215497

Someone else might have to put it together though, someone good at organizing shit in photoshop.

i'll make the thread in a few minutes

They are aware of it though as you had retards warning Treehouse about it.

>>388228792
but it never got sent
the ritual was never completed

>>388214514
This means nothing for HL3. This is likely just the story as it was before Episode 3 was cancelled, back when the concept art started leaking.

>>388228317
Nothing would change and you know it.

>>388228942
It does make you wonder what would have happened. Most likely they'd laugh about it in the office and then go onto twitter and pretend to be victims of internet bullying or some shit with idiots defending their hack job and encouraging them to fuck up games even harder next time.

>>388229103
It would be a red board so the waifus and furry shit would be uncensored.

Maybe that anon, who sent in to him was from Australia

>>388226854
GUYS NO HE'S AUSTRALIAN
HE IS A MASTER OF SHITPOST MAGIC
IT'S GONNA BACKFIRE ON US

>>388215585
I thought the David Hayter headshot was of Rosie O'Donald for some reason.

>>388229814
Just make sure the card has a few aussie posts in it to counter his magic.

I still believe in the Gaben.
He will return.
He must return.

>>388230060
He'll return with paid mods and the steam online service charge. Play your games for $10 a month!

Does anyone have the actual card he's holding as a png?

>>388229640
As opposed to now where that still happens.

I'm surprised he hasn't tried it yet.

Reminder that /v/ created Anita Sarkeesian. Sjw stuff being mainstream instead of restricted to tumblr is entirely /v/'s fault. You could even go as far as saying that Trump is president now because of events that /v/ set in motion.

We also put Sarkeesian on the spotlight and she started the whole vidya feminism thing

Holy fuck, this is actually, for lack of a better word, cringe. I hate that word but I feel nothing but second hand embarrassment from this.

>That steamdrone era on /v/ where people unironically used PC master race memes

I know most of you faggots are still here, hiding your embarrassing past by jumping on the "Gabe is a fat cunt and Steam is garbage" bandwagon. You know who you are and the deeds you've done.

That was 5 years ago, Portal 2 had just came out, Dota 2 had just entered public beta, and TF2 had recently gone F2P along with a series of TF2 shorts, updates, and comics coming out repeatedly. You can't blame me for liking the guy when they were having (what appeared to be at the time) a silver age at the company. If it makes you feel any better I'm a bodybuilding White Supremacist now.

>>388216768
I would dearly love this to be true but you don't hype a game by revealing the entire story.

Can we send a card to Todd?

>>388237220
They only work with sincerity and praise in mind

>>388237220
I feel like he would send it back asking if you bought fallout 4 with a ;) face

>>388229754
Yeah it was that, I remember it was because it was the cheapest place to ship to Japan from

So now that it's set in stone, how long until it's made by fans with this plot?

When they gave him a crate and made him pay for a key, that was pretty funny.

Why does it have to be this way?
