Steam Next Fest 2.2022 - From 21.2 to 28.2

I like how this stream was uploaded to Valve's youtube channel and it has nothing to do with Valve other than Steam shit. I was already expecting nothing and it was cherry on the top when I saw a black fag and vtuber avatar fag on day 1.

It's like Valve is trying to do their own E3 but somehow worse than E3 has stooped. I guess there aren't Facebook ads at least.

that's not even a stream, either someone at valve fucked up or was retarded on purpose. the steam channel has the real countdown stream - which no really gives a shit about, people either play the demos directly or watch the dev stream on the store page.

true. it does look like Valve related shit though, not steam. that thumbnail made people think it'll be Valve showing some Steamdeck shit or, to be optimistic, new games.
