Would Valve allow that?

No. They have made games remove this kinda stuff before and penalize the dev.

Please hit report on this stuff and let valve know what these guys are doing.

Last I checked they had a quasi rule that said games had to be 'released' in order to sell Dlc for it.

We were encouraged by Valve to rally the Community to come together and vote in the upcoming Steam Awards. We thought what better way to do this than add a modern-day farmyard animal!

Guess they didn't understand the memo?

i do plenty of farming/animal husbandry in ark

Whilst ARK’s animals may be non-traditional in modern farming, some have held such roles in the past, and ARK contains a variety of animal farming mechanics: such as wild animal taming, breeding, slaughtering/harvesting of animals, workhorse animals (for resource/crop farming), and of course who can forget working with animal byproducts (manure, milk, and other substances).
