Taking a break from buying megayachts.
It’s been one heck of a week for serious Valve news, thanks largely to founder Monica Harrington’s new GDC talk about the company’s early days. So I thought it was perhaps time for a palate cleanser: What’s Gabe Newell up to?
Well, when he’s not fighting off sharks in South Africa, or tootling around on one of his mega superyachts, Gabe remains just one of us. Remarkably, he also still monitors his email address and, every so often, replies to someone.
Reddit user Walrus6444 recently sent one such message, politely asking: „Dear Mr Gaben, what games do you actually play?“ I think brevity might be one of the keys to getting Gabe’s attention, because the Valve co-founder replied to assert his bona fides.
