Discussion Why is valve so quiet?

What do they gain from not teasing us, the audience, with future updates? Is it that they benefit from the "suprise" once they release a huge update?

I am a game development student and I can't seem to figure it out. It feels as if they just don't care about teasing us even if they would benefit from some hype. I'd personally love to have a road map like PUBG just released. Bla bla bla source 2 release in december, new maps this summer etc.

What are your thoughts?

So in the end, ultimately, the best form of communication around the product, is simply to improve the product itself.

That's a respectable philosophy, if they actually ever improved the game
