r/valve on Reddit: What exactly do Valve employees do all day?
September 23, 2023 -
I can't imagine that Steam requires that much work. The bulk of the work would probably be dealing with customer service issues, I imagine.
Valve almost never releases games so it makes me wonder what any of their employees do to fill their days. Other gaming companies (that make less money) release massive open-world games basically every other year. Rockstar doesn't release many games but the ones they do release are so complex, massive, and popular that you know they spent their time well.
I'm definitely not saying that I want Steam to become like Activision or anything, I'm just curious what the hell it's like to actually work there. If there's no real hierarchy of leadership, how do you measure performance? How can you know if someone is worth their salary? How do you tell a good employee from a bad employee?
I would honestly pay money to shadow a Valve employee for one week just to know even if I had to sign a ton of NDA's.

I think what happens is that the projects they’re working on get cancelled. We’ve seen quite a few leaks of games that were at various stages of production before they get canned. Valve is in a position to choose when they want to release games, instead of having to. But they are working on games. CS2 is a recent one that comes to mind. And 3 years ago they released Half-Life Alyx. In addition to that there are unreleased and unannounced projects that these developers are tied up in. Both in games and hardware. It sucks because I absolutely love Valve games and do wish we saw more of them. But it is what it is.
