@waldmanmedia: What do you think of his reasoning? 😳 Gabe Newell built the yacht he wanted, then bought the shipyard that built it. Leviathan is a 111-meter (364-foot) Oceanco superyacht delivered in 2025 under the build code Y722, and she was built by the Dutch yard the Valve and Steam founder acquired that same year. Naval architecture comes from Lateral, using its latest DE-Series hull with a 17.8-meter beam tuned to stretch the natural roll period beyond 12 seconds, putting seakeeping and comfort at anchor at the center of the engineering brief. Diesel-electric propulsion delivers a top speed of 17.5 knots, and Bolidt developed a custom deck compound to improve heat dissipation. Accommodation covers 26 guests across 11 suites with up to 37 crew, yet the general arrangement breaks traditional superyacht class barriers, with owner, guests, and crew sharing spaces. Leviathan also operates as a marine research platform for Inkfish, Newell’s ocean exploration organization, carrying an integrated dive center, laboratory, 3D-printing workshop, submarine garage, and hospital. Oceanco exterior design, explorer capability, and a gaming founder’s vision in one hull. #Oceanco #Megayacht

the funny thing is steam only has a monopoly because they dont update how the shop runs a shop. it stays. you sell stuff for a reasonable price. you have sales. you dont screw over your customers.

I'm not saying Gabe Newell will get a pass when the Revolution comes, but he will certainly be at the very bottom of the list... Okay, maybe he can just write an apology email and get parole.

well I mean, he made a monopoly not by buying out competition or cheating, he made one simply from having a better product

Was gonna say. This yacht is for science, and Gabes love of ocean exploration. To know its also designed around crew comforts is actually fantastic. Gabe is love

Bob :
It's a brilliant move.
By making sure the crew are happy, he immediately has a crew that don't want to leave, meaning they stay loyal to him.
Nobody is going to get bribed to reveal weird quirks or reveal any potential negative crap.

The average valve salary is also 1.3 million dollars…… he also treats his workers great as well. The lowest paid workers ( probably janitors and stuff ) make 88,000.
