“The year isn’t quite over but so far we’ve released a huge Steam Client update, Counter-Strike 2 entered into beta (and launches soon) and there are now more than 11,000 titles verified or playable on Steam Deck.”
Now, what Valve means by “soon” could mean next week, next month, or next year. I mean, look at what it did to my boy “summer” here: is it really still summer halfway through December? I guess in certain parts of Seattle the answer is yes.
Better to release a finished, polished product than to see a release “on time” with a bunch of stupid bugs and poor game play. Valve isn’t stupid, they know release quality is paramount to deadlines.
Not like the CS fan base would rip Valve a new one and also risk the CSGO tournaments and it’s reach.
