less that there was a time limit, but it was a project that was worked on for a long time, and had on and off discussions throughout the development cycle of the game
they point out theirselves in August 2021, that they were using a solutionthat breaks Valves TOS before later replacing it later in 2022. Its evidence that there was on and off times where what theyre doing was skirting what valve says was okay.
you believe the mod team despite there are other games who have successfully worked with valve and actually have fully recreated the entire game they made and actively sell on their storefront for actual money?
again im not saying valve are in the clear, but the devs clearly says it so themselves they have throughout the process, broke the TOS and you're still inclined to believe that theyre not hiding anything else? I don't see it as a black and white issue, rather a situation that I can't trust anyone because only one side of the story has been said, by a side that doesn't necessarily have the cleanest history.
Cool. You can believe whatever you want. I'm still going to give the mod team the benefit of the doubt until I hear anything from Valve for the reasons I've already mentioned.
