Steamcast Releases The First Part Of Their Second Gabe Newell Interview

Hooray! It’s finally here!

Steamcast Releases The First Part Of Their Second Gabe Newell Interview

First off, here are all of the questions that were asked during Part 1. Yes, that is my question.

Here is where you’ll find the interview, plus some handy transcripts.

In case you had no idea, Steamcast, a podcast on all things Valve, is conducting their second interview with Gabe Newell, thanks to one of their mates, backstepper, who recently got the chance to visit Valve.

Of course, we’ll be looking at some of the more interesting stuff from the interview here, but you should really check out the actual interview nonetheless. This is a huge read too, and it isn’t even the full interview in its entirety. This is more of an abridged version, so if you don’t have time, just go and check out the podcast or the transcript.

Alright, so, the first question was from Chrome235, and it asked if Valve sees the biometric technology they were talking about a while back as something that only applies to playtesting, or as something that can be used on actual players as well, and how they would see that as something that could be used in a non-intrusive way.

Gabe replied with:

So, we think biometrics are going to be very fundamental. […] When you look at the kinds of experiences we try to create for people, having access to the internal state of the player allows us to build much more interesting and compelling experiences.

So, we don’t really think that’s in doubt; the question is really about when and in what forms that takes.

He then goes into depth about what forms that could take, from the more simpler ones, like heart-rate or skin galvanic response, and pupil dilation and gaze tracking.

But there’s a very interesting part:

Longer-term, it gets more science-fictiony. We’re just talking to a company that actually implants EEG (electroencephalography) equipment into people’s skulls. It’s about a $60,000 operation right now, but it gives you fantastic data that you could use.

Eventually, you’re going to reach the point where it’s a reasonable customer option, as strange as that sounds, and very much reminds me of science-fiction stories out of the 1950’s about embedded phones and things like that. But at some point, there’s going to be sort of increasingly accurate, increasingly sophisticated sources of data about what’s going on in your body and in your brain.

He also talks about how that significantly alters gaming and social experiences on games like Left 4 Dead, and how one experiment in particular turned from a debug test to a very interesting phenomenon from a design perspective.

He then switches the conversation back to the realm of… well, we’d say science fiction, except it’s not really science fiction anymore.

Now, I said earlier that we were sort of heading in a more science-fictiony direction. The thing that is also really interesting is that there’s a bunch of research right now in using… it’s called TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation), and essentially it’s using magnets you can increase and decrease the activity levels in parts of your brain.

In other words, rather than your brain being read-only, there’s non-invasive ways of making your brain read right, so we’re tracking that research pretty closely, like there’s a bunch of rat studies, where […] learning has improved if you stimulate certain regions of the brain and that’s a really interesting, or be it, somewhat scary phenomenon.

He then talks a bit more about whether or not we’re that far away from having this technology in the hands of the player, and then moves on to the next question, which is from yours truly.

I asked if Valve will ever return to Prospero, one of their original game designs. To shed some light on what Prospero was for anyone who might not know, Half-Life 2: Raising the Bar states that Prospero was to emphasize exploration, an intricate storyline, and combat via psionic powers. Slowly, as the design concepts for Half-Life began to develop, and absorb some of Prospero’s design goals, it began to evolve into a MMO title, which would have featured an in-game “library”, from which the player could access a number of official, and user-created worlds.

Numerous concepts that started out in Prospero, such as digital distribution, a friend finder, and others, eventually found a home in other Valve projects. Still, back in June of 2006, Gabe stated he would still like to do Prospero, right after TF2, and in September of last year, he called Prospero “the game Valve never shipped”.

So, yes, I asked whether or not Valve will ever return to Prospero.

The answer was quite intriguing:

Well, a lot of the ideas for Prospero have sort of influenced our other games subsequently. So, you know, whether or not we actually go back and do that specific game, I don’t know, it actually has a lot of appeal to us, we’re all sort of fond of it.

Nothing ever really dies here, it’s just a question of how long until we get around to doing it. We just have so many opportunities to do so many different things. I mean, I even get e-mailed by people saying “What about Ricochet 2?”, which is kind of astonishing.

We actually have 26 people whose first Valve game they ever bought was Ricochet on Steam, so, like I said, nothing ever appears to ever really die, you just haven’t gotten around to doing it yet, so I’d put Prospero into the camp.

And even further back than Prospero, the other game that Mike Harrington and I were talking about before we’d even had anybody other than us working on it was a submarine game. Mike was absolutely certain there was an opportunity to create fantastic underwater visuals and gameplay, so if people want to know that the even furtherest back thing we haven’t even gotten around to shipping yet, it would have to be the Unnamed Submarine Game.

Very interesting!

The next question was from Born Acid, who asked what was the last game that scared Gabe, and if a game has ever made him cry.

I was sort of creeped out by the Silent Hill games, I can’t really say I was scared. I think Resident Evil had this awesome moment where this thing runs by a window, and it’s completely unannounced.

[…]

Doom scared the hell, right, I didn’t even realize how scared I was when I was playing Doom, but I can’t really say that other games have really done a super great job of scaring me.

Part of the problem, though, is that I’m a game developer, and that really changes your relationship to these kinds of things, […] you’re sort of running a simulator in your head all the time to sort of think about how other gamers are experiencing it, and that makes it harder for you to have the same kinds of peak highs and lows that somebody who doesn’t build games for a living would have.

The next question is from RedBadger, who is one of our tutorial writers. He asks what was one of the biggest challenges Valve faced with Portal 2, and if there were any things that they wanted in the final product, but could not add.

No, I think Portal 2 is pretty much everything that we want it to be. Most of the challenges on Portal 2 were personal development of the people who were working on the project. We sort of used Portal 2 as an opportunity to have a whole bunch of people take on more responsibility than they had in the past, and that was great for us in the long run, but it set some people’s hair on fire, but everybody who worked on it did an awesome job. Portal 2 is… [it] pretty much nails just everything we try to do and does it really professionally. 

I mean I would have liked – like on a project, like there are some things that I wanted – more music in the game than we ended up getting, but that’s sort of nitpicky.

Every game can be longer and every game can have more stuff, but that’s a pretty minor thing. That’s more aspirational than it is a negative. I think that people are going to be totally psyched by Portal 2.

Next question was from Lugaloco, who asked if Valve has made any progresses in sign language technology for deaf gamers, or if there has been any development of the idea at all. You might remember when Gabe talked in 2009 to some deaf gamers about implementing sign language in their future games, as well as the possibility of Episode Three featuring a deaf character, perhaps someone who Alyx had a crush on. She would have taught D0g sign language to be able to communicate with this character.

Here’s the answer:

We haven’t made any interesting progress, it’s something we want to do, but we keep bumping into things that cause us to think harder of the problem. We’re definitely going to be doing work in that space, but I can’t say that we’re happy with anything – we don’t have anything we’re ready to ship out to people yet.

Shame!

Next up is a question from the Killsmith (delightfully badass name), who asks if Valve will ever fix up the issues that have popped up in HL2 and the Episodes ever since the Source 2009 update back in May of last year.

Gabe said:

Ah yes, we’re going to fix them. When Erik (Johnson, product manager at Valve) gets back, he can be more concrete about the delivery date for that, since he’s the one who would know.

Yeah, we always are going to be keeping these things up-to-date and fix problems that either arise or that we create ourselves!

The full (or, not-so-full) answer comes later in the interview, when Erik enters the interview. We’ll be talking about that shortly.

Flamov, the host of Steamcast, asked if Valve is still interested in adding developer commentary to Half-Life 2, which is something that was brought up during the previous interview.

Gabe’s answer was this:

So, the issue there is that there’s a large tax with updating the older games, I mean like a bandwidth tax in terms of how much content we’d have to shove down to people, so we’re trying to gather a couple of these things together at one time so we don’t have to update the entire game multiple times and have people have to go through that […], so those kinds of opportunities, we’ll take advantage of one [update] we have to do to keep it current with graphics hardware.

Interesting.

Next up, MasterGir asked if “Valve will ever update the Source SDK, especially Hammer”, because, as Source modders like to say, Hammer is currently about as reliable as a drunken dromedary that has cancer.

Gabe said:

Oh yeah, we’re spending a tremendous amount of time on tools right now. So, our current tools are… very painful, so we probably are spending more time on tools development now than anything else, and when we’re ready to ship those, I think everybody’s life will get a lot better. It’s just way too hard to develop content right now, both for ourselves and for third-parties, so we’re going to make that enormously easier, and simplify that process a lot.

Great to hear.

Next was… MamaLuigi (yes, that’s MamaLuigi to you, reader) asked what is Gabe’s favorite memory of HL2’s development.

Gabe’s response was pretty awesome:

My favorite memory is being able to show the finished product to people who really wanted to play it, I mean that’s sort of where everything sort of pays off; the project is done, you’re really proud of what you and your colleagues have done, and all the waiting is over and people can play it. That’s the best part.

Definitely! The next question was from Steve W. who wanted to know what Valve takes in consideration when looking at a résumé and hiring someone. The answer was very, very long, but very interesting.

So one of the most important things that we look for is the ability to ship something to a group of customers, get feedback from those customers and then make changes where you measure the consequences of those changes.

For us, that’s the key to being a successful developer nowadays. It’s not about what school you went to or what classes you took, it’s that ability to take feedback and iterate that’s the most important thing and it’s a solid thing where iteration cycles and being able to be responsive to customer demands is the critical long-term ability that you have to have to be successful in the game space.

For anybody who’s interested, like ‘I’m finishing up high school, what’s the best pathway to take as a game developer?’ Well what you want to do is actually put up a game, create a website, put up a game, get ten of your friends to play it, have them post on the forums so there’s sort of a public record of that, what they think and make a set of changes and then have some way of saying ‘Here was the impact of those changes’. It could be as simple as a poll, right – eight out of ten people thought that the problem with dark levels has been resolved.

And then do that process for a while and show that you can internalize customer responses to what you’re doing and iterate towards better solutions. That’s the thing that we look for and that’s the thing that will make you best prepared to take advantage of whatever you do next.

Gabe also mentions that this will not only help working on mods and the like, but will help you through university, as well as entry-level QA or testing positions, perhaps at larger publishers.

He also gives an interesting piece of advice:

The first thing you should do should only take you a day, and I know that sounds weird like ‘How can you do anything useful in a day?’. Well, it’s a lot easier to do something useful in a day and make it better over several days than it is to do something over several days and not end up going awry. So, those are just a set of suggestions that I would make to people.

Very interesting.

Next question was from Zable, who asked what Valve is able to learn from experimental psychology and the use of biometric tech.

Well the nice thing, well I mean experimental psychologists, you know, have — so Mike Ambinder, you know, came from, he had a research background and he brings a lot of precision to his thinking about these classes of problems. Like, most experimental psychologists are game designers even though they don’t call themselves that and it’s remarkable how many of the skills that Mike was using – just his ability to statistical analysis is a Godsend for everybody here, right.

He can take tremendous amounts of data and extract more useful information from that data from that information than just anybody else here, and he’s also really good about teaching everybody else about how to think that way so that they’re developing the same sets of mental tools that he has.

He also talks about how hiring Mike has helped Valve grasp these experimental game design techniques, and how they are now discovering some really new and exciting things.

Next, Axiom asked: ‘Valve has mentioned before that they like to attract new consumers by giving free updates as a source of income. Then why suddenly introduce micro-transactions in TF2, and where the prices of some in-game items are even more expensive than the game itself?’

Very good question. Let’s see what Gabe said:

So, what we’re trying to do — so the way to think — okay, so, there’s this question in of how do you make money so that you can pay everybody’s salaries so you can make more stuff.

The term is monetization. A lot of times pricing is thought of as a way to extract the greatest amount of money from poor, unsuspecting consumers, right? So, you know, ‘Hey, we can charge $39.95. Yeah, we can also charge $49.95! Isn’t that better?’ The answer is that is a really broken way of thinking about pricing.

Pricing is a service, right? It’s an opportunity to increase the value of the thing you do by giving each person what, for them, is the optimal combination of benefits and components and costs, and each person is going to have their own optimal way of doing that. Some people are willing to have ads, and some people don’t. Some people want the least upfront cost, and some people want to know that they have finished paying for something they don’t ever have to pay for it again.

Those are just simple examples of what you really want to do is to allow each person to craft and design their own custom option. Now, having transactions or incremental marginal content is one way of giving lots of people more flexibility in sort of putting together what for them is the best set of, you know, features and costs. And we’re always going to be looking for ways to give each person there more and more control over what it is that they most prefer and that it’s not going to look like what the person next to them does.

He then mentions how part of what they did with the Mann-conomy pricing was see how people would react, what people would buy, what they would think of buying them after they had actually bought them, and if they would actually wear or use these items.

He also told us about something that’s quite intriguing:

The interesting data we saw was that when we launched the Mann-Conomy that the highest selling item on the store was the most expensive item, the second highest item – the second highest volume – was the least expensive item. So you look at that and you say ‘Hmm, people are trying to tell us something’, what is it that they‘re trying to tell us?

So we’re very much at the beginning of understanding what it is that we’re learning from this. We certainly can’t say that we have this clear idea that what we’re doing is the right thing that’s optimal for all of our customers, we are looking at this very closely all the time and trying to figure out ways to learn more about what it is that people like the most and what it is that people don’t like, what are the things that we should avoid?

It will be interesting and entertaining to watch us fumble around trying to understand what the best thing to do is, and hopefully people remember that our long-term goal is to create as much value and as many happy customers as we possibly can.

Backstepper then said: “And the community also gets money from it.”, to which Gabe replied:

Yeah! Right now, we think that that’s worth touching on.

It’s like, we think that it’s an incredibly important step so that the value that the community is generating, that they’re able to vote with their dollars and say ‘This person has created something that’s more valuable than anybody else, and I’ll prove it by giving them money’ – whether it’s a map or it’s models or whatever, and we think that that’s a critical characteristic not just of Team Fortress but just about any game going forward is to create a framework in which the community can actively participate in the creation and monetization of entertainment experiences.

Certainly!

Next question was from Niall M.C., who asked: ‘Is the incoming release of DOTA 2 a sign that you feel that you are ready to move on to concepts out side of first person genres and is there a chance that there will be more titles coming from Valve in the future that explore other genres?’

Gabe said:

Well we did Alien Swarm and we did Ricochet and those were non-first-person and so we’ve always wanted to do — we always want to do everything, right, they’re people at Valve who want to do fighting games, RTS games, MMOs; you name it, and it’s really a question of time.

We spend more time thinking of all of the things we don’t have time to do than we do worrying about — the biggest competitor to an idea at Valve are other ideas, right, and I personally am really glad that we’re doing DOTA 2 because I’m addicted to the game and so it’s great for me personally but there’s sort of criteria that we always have to apply when we’re looking at ‘What do we work on next?’, and broadening our range is certainly one of the things we look at as being a plus for any given project.

So, yeah, we like the fact that it’s not first-person and we’re hoping to do more.

Next up was ThatoneJeff, creator of Valve: TAS, who asked if Valve would be interested in using facial animation tech similar to that used by Team Bondi in L.A. Noire, or if they’ll stick to manual animation.

Gabe somehow managed to answer the question… yet not answer it at the same time.

We have a lot of people here who’re pretty sophisticated in the technology and science of faces and facial animation, so Bay Raitt works here, Jeff Unay who took over from Bay’s work at Weta Digital and did Avatar is here now. So, we’re pretty comfortable pushing that technology forward and I think that we’ll see some fairly large steps in the future with regards to facial technology with our future games.

Oh, well.

Anyways, our very own webmaster and founder, Alex asked the next question: “‘How do you think a good workplace ethic like at Valve helps to engage developers and artists when making a new game?’

So, I was very lucky when I was at Microsoft – when I joined Microsoft it was the third largest software developer on the east side of Lake Washington, and then several years later everybody who was my cohort at Microsoft, we were all filthy rich and did never have to work again; felt very weird, like, none of us sort said ‘Ah, I really deserve this’, most of us were like ‘Well that’s… kind of strange, it never occurred to me that’ – this was back before the whole generation of IPOs and internet startups and all that, this was back when software was this weird thing that ran on crazy hobbyists’ computers.

But what it did was put me into a situation where I had to think really hard about what I wanted to do with my myself, simply because I could do anything I wanted – I didn’t have the excuse to say ‘Oh I have to go to work because I have to pay my car bill and my house and pay my mortgage’ because I didn’t have a mortgage and I already paid off my car you’re sort of like ‘Why am I, what am I doing? Should I just quit and get into a sail boat and sail around the world? Is that going to make me happier? Should I devote myself to philanthropy?’

So the answer was actually what I really enjoyed doing more than anything else was working with really smart people, building cool products and then shipping them to millions of customers who valued them highly. That’s just like a huge amount of fun to do, so when I think about the other people here I sort of assume that there’re in the same position I am, or I was, or that they will be. Our goal here is to make everybody rich enough that they don’t have to work, so we just take that off the table for them.

That’s a very interesting goal right there.

He talks some more about how he’d like to work, and with what kind of people he’d like to work.

[…] and coming here every day doesn’t feel like a job, it feels like I’m having a huge amount of fun. A lot of times I say, I’m flying the world’s best fighter jet, is what it feels like to be here.

It’s just amazing how fast things happen and there are lots of people at the company who’s individual contributions would make the company successful, and yet we’re all here working together with a shared purpose and it’s just a blast.

So, in that environment you are both attracted to really talented people and then they tend to really want to stick together because the reason they go to work each day is not because they get a salary or not because they get written up in magazines, they come to work each because it’s just a huge amount of fun to be in an office next to Jay Stelly, Yahn Bernier or Christian Rivers or any of these guys – it’s just a blast.

Good to hear!

Next question is from Norek: ‘You recently started using other kinds of media (comics, videos, short movies) in order to provide an opportunity for us to explore the fictional universe of your games or promote an upcoming piece of gaming material (DLC, update, etc). Are you willing to expand further in different media by creating something entirely original that is not connected to your previous games in any way, or you would rather prefer to keep such materials strictly game-related, serving as just an additional content to something that’s already established and well-known among the community?’

And Gabe’s reply is:

So the late nineties and early two-thousands it seemed like your average gamer knew more about how tthe internet worked than your average marketing vice president.

 Customers understood that everything about the sort of brick-and-mortar business was going to be sort of overthrown when creators and consumers could be connected, and it wasn’t just about moving bits across wires for dollars, it was the relationship and the experience was going to change pretty dramatically, and that’s really where our customers seem to be ahead and we needed to build Steam sort of as a result of where our customers already were and where our customers were headed.

I think in the same way we came to this realization that our customers’ notion of entertainment was very different from what was convenient for us.

It was awfully convenient for us if we could just keep making video games, and I’ve talked to people in the film business about this and they’re worried that it’s not going to be possible for them to continue to just think about making movies, and I’ve talked to comic book people and the same thing; we have these accidents of production technology that cause some companies to be better at some things than others, but it doesn’t reflect what the customer experience is.

Very interesting, so far!

The customer experience wants these very rich, engaging… things. We don’t have a word for them yet, and sometimes they want to be the protagonist and they want to have a strong sense of agency and those things look like games and then sometimes they want the strongest — well, what you end up coming to the conclusion is that we need to be able to produce a much wider set of media assets so we can start to figure out what it is the richer overall experience it is that people want to have.

I think TF2 is furtherest down the road of our products in terms of exploring this, but I also think that’s it’s something that every entertainment company is going to have to wrestle with and whether you’re Bad Robot, or Valve, or Marvel, you’re going to have to figure out how you are going to give people the experiences and the worlds that they want, not the ones that are easy and familiar for you to create. So, we really see this as being reactive to how customers are thinking about what it is that they’re fans of today.

There’s a production component on it and there’s also sort of the consumption side that we make it way too hard for people to be fans of a particular property. It’s like ‘Oh so I have to go to Netflix to get my movies. I have to go to Barnes and Noble to get my comics and my books. I go to GameStop for the games’, the community is completely disconnected from that, and what seems bazar when you say it that way, how can your community which is so critical to most people’s experience of these things be completely unintegrated with any of the other ways of participating in or consuming these experiences.

We could listen to this stuff all day.

So, yeah, we think that we have to be doing this, we think that we’re very much at the beginning of doing it and really haven’t done anything that’s – -it’s like we’re laying the ground work to do more interesting work later.

As to whether or not you could start a particular property outside of the interactive piece, yeah absolutely. I think that that would be sort of an interesting experiment for Valve or for any game company to do is to start, you know — I think the interesting thing is to do is to start almost from the forum, right?

It’s like, take the thing that is most about community involvement and engagement and build out from that rather from building out from the game. You can also build out from a comic or a movie or whatever, but you’d probably learn more by starting with the forum and starting from the assumption of community engagement and building from that, and you’d learn a lot more from going that way. But I do think that this is something that every entertainment company is going to have to wrestle with.

Yes, definitely a great answer.

The next and final question is from Boff, who asks: ‘Have you or any other Valve members, been lurking on forums under a pseudo name. Have they started flame wars antagonizing regulars?’

A bit of a wacky question, but, let’s see what Gabe replied:

(laughs) I think most of everybody at Valve has been, in their own lives, through so many flame wars that the thrill is gone. We’re all relatively sophisticated consumers of the internet, plus it’s way more fun to troll your own colleagues (laugh) than it is to mess with people’s heads outside of the company.

Intriguing!

At this point in the interview (near the end), Erik Johnson enters the conversation, and Gabe asks:

I want to go back to something we sort of touched on earlier since Erik (Johnson) is here. So the question is – there are two questions that I think you might want to address, one is the last Half-Life 2 update, what are the plans for getting the issues that we created fixed and out to customers?

Aaand Eric smashes our hopes in one swift move:

 I don’t have any data right off the top of my head on that right now.

Close to the end, folks. Gabe asks Eric about developer commentary in HL2:

…and so I said ‘Well the problem with developers commentary is yyou tend to want to bundle it into a larger update because if you’re going to have to go and update a whole bunch of content for something you sort of want to do it as rarely as possible’. The point being that it might be useful for people to understand how we make those decisions; how do we decide to drop DX7 [DirectX 7] support or how do we decide bring all of the Half-Life 2 maps up to the Portal 2 engine. What are the set of tradeoffs that we think about, because I think exposing those tradeoffs and how we make those decisions is even more useful than picking a specific issue.

Erik: Yep. So, we’re always internally trying to optimize our time for what we can do to do make the most customers happy, and we always have more things to do than time in the day or the people to do it, that’s always been true in the history of the company. So there’s some things that we end up not getting done.

Part of the problem or the struggle is that customers have a list of things that they definitely want us to, but they don’t have the list of everything we’re doing and so we have to do a bunch of the evaluation on our side. We have the thing we’re doing which is — say it was Portal 2 before we announced that versus go back add a bunch of features or move our whole technology base forward to be more current.

So we have to look and say ‘This is how much work this thing is, this is how much work the other thing is, what’s the best thing for customers for us to do in this given time?’ But it’s something that makes us a little crazy internally because when a bunch of customers are saying ‘We want you guys to do this for us, I want you to add commentary to Half-Life 2’ we have to make this tradeoff with our time that is kind of hard for us to make, so there’s always this huge list of stuff we want to get done and there’s never enough hours in the day.

We have a problem, and I think we’ve made the problem a little bit harder on ourselves, like we kind of created a problem ourselves as we’ve shipped a bunch of products, at least by our standards pretty closely together since Half-Life 2 – we’ve made technology tradeoffs that make it too difficult for those codebases to interact with each other so…

[…]

Say we introduced a new rendering feature in Portal 2 to get that rendering feature into Counter-Strike: Source is really difficult because the specific thing we would have to do would be bring that entire codebase forward which one of the effects of that would be that Counter-Strike: Source would no longer work if it were running in DX8 [DirectX 8], and our products are very long-lived and we want to be able to give as much value to customers as we can over time but those transition where it’s like ‘Well, the codebase is going to change in a significant way or it’s going to support specific type of hardware is going to go away’, those are rough and we need to make sure that the thing we’re giving to customers is more valuable than that transition cost, so that’s how we look at those things.We have a lot of great tools for that, as opposed to if we had to traverse those ten years ago. In the case of the hardware we can say ‘Well how many people have this hardware, how many people have new hardware’…

Gabe: In the case of DX8 and Counter-Strike: Source it’s 2%! (laughs)

Erik: (laughs) Right, right!

Gabe: So, all you DX8 hardware – not DX8 software – all you DX8 hardware Counter-Strike: Source users, watch out!

Erik: (laughs) Yeah!

Gabe: You’ve fallen below the Mendoza Line!

Erik: (laughs) Right!

Well, that’s the end of our article.

Remember, we didn’t cover everything. There’s a lot of stuff that we left out, so you should definitely head over there and check out the podcast itself.
