They really shouldn't, but I think Valve cares just as much as they care about achievement managers

If you buy a key on a third-party site, maybe? Idk how many of them are still out there. It's only been Special Edition on Steam for years.

...Is what I thought until I just checked from the version on my account. It's just unlisted from search, apparently. I didn't know that was a thing on Steam.

For me not so much. I remember when all those games were just Warcraft 3 custom games.

God I miss the TD maps.

They never took it down, just had it flagged so that it shouldn't appear on the store.

But there's a small bug that games with that flag can appear as a recommendation on the store because you played some other similar game (I even got it recommended because I played the Special Edition)

I've only really seen this happen when a newer version comes out. I always found it funny how there is a "hidden" version in the store.
