Valve now requires developers to launch their game through the Steam client and run it for at least five minutes before submitting it for review, as part of several new additions to Steam's pre-release checklist. It doesn't have to be the developer playing, since anyone's playtime counts, as long...

Apparently, Valve keeps getting builds that were never run through Steam at all, which is how games end up with broken launch options or missing depots.

    I said what I said. Every. Achievement.

    (Half joking, but also half serious. It sucks when people accomplish something crazy difficult only to learn that the game is bugged and the achievement fails to unlock or the criteria can’t be met)
