The article states that product placements are permissible.

Like all those Doritos in the 2009 Ghostbusters game?

Still the greatest Ghostbusters video game ever made, BY FAR, but I hated those constant Doritos logos.

And I normally love those chips.

I was directly responding to him that Death Stranding no longer had any, so this wouldn't effect it regardless.

I guess I don't see the point in this stance from Valve then. Some product placements are so jarring that they might as well be direct ads, which is obviously the whole point in including them in games in the first place.
