    Yeah, that’s what I thought. Not trying to be a smart ass, I just keep seeing things like this for Ubisoft and other companies and people just crap on them, but then Steam is almost never criticised for the same issue (or I am not seeing those memes). I guess Valve makes enough other things right so people are more happy to overlook this?

      Steam is not a publicly traded company, so they don’t pull this kind of skullduggery in service of the shareholders.

      They’re a company full of people who, gasp, like video games: unlike the average navel gazing, brainless, Harvard Business School CEO.

      Given their track record they’ve been more consistently “pro gamer” than other companies and are given a lot of leeway for that.
