Now if only they could more clearly communicate when games are playable offline.

I highly doubt this will do anything at all to sales. But I'm just guessing. Maybe it will. Hopefully! But I still applaud the change by Valve. I think it's great.

I don't think the point is to do anything on sales. Valve profit from sales. It's to raise the problem so now the managers have to decide on a scale how much they abuse the players. Before it wasn't even a problem, now it's Valve: "maybe you shouldn't wink wink"

Well yea, I don't think Valve wants to nuke their own sales, lol. I think they don't want any devs doing any funny business and abusing anti cheat. That's my guess.
