Toby at Valve - Doors, Walls, Desks

posted by Jaywalker, 1 year ago
The greetings come from afar but they come warmly and with gifts of pictures and information.

After a few days at Valve, au Toby 'TobiWanKenobi' Dawson has given us another update about his adventure:


It has been a fun and tiring couple of days, with so much to do and so much enjoyment doing it all. All this is leaving me rather exausted, so I'm not going to say too much in this one. One thing I will say is, the Valve staff are like good wine, they already are the finest vintage and they keep getting better.

I hope you enjoy the pictures, I gave a small description for some of them so you can understand exactly what you are looking at, and sometimes no real description as you have to keep some mystery in life. Have fun!


This is going to be a bit more of a photo gallery than a news post for you. But just as they say, pictures are worth a thousand words, and each picture here holds significant meaning to Valve. Be sure to click the photos for an enlarged view.

There is much to be said about these horns, capable of bringing the entire Dota 2 development team to a stand still and also having slightly erotic qualities.



The birthplace of Dota 2
