Valve says no need to boycott, will continue to support Left 4 Dead
Just a few days ago a group emerged who pledged they would boycott Left 4 Dead 2 due to the game’s release date being so close to the previous game’s. They also pointed to the fact that Valve would likely not support the original Left 4 Dead as they should once the new one hits the market.
Well, Kotaku proceeded to contact Valve about the boycott and Gabe Newell himself, president of the company, has taken time to make a statement:
Doing a sequel in one year is new for Valve. But providing ongoing support for our titles after the initial launch isn’t – it has been part of our philosophy since Half-Life was released ten and half years ago. We see no reason to change that and will continue to support the over three million customers in the L4D community.
So there you have it folks, Valve will in fact continue to support the original Left 4 Dead once the sequeal drops so you can stop boycotting and such.
