  Did valve create the gambling games you mention?

      I’m curious as to which ones you’re talking about.

  Sounds to me like a parenting issue, not a valve issue.

    The only parental failure I’m seeing here is you. You do not deserve to take part into an adult discussion.

  I feel like you’re straw-manning here.

  I never said it’s okay. All I’m saying is that a mega-corporation can simultaneously exploit psychological loopholes for profit (loot boxes) while actively pushing open-source ecosystems (Linux), providing great value to consumers and fighting other pc gaming monopolies (Microsoft). Look at the whole picture.

    Is it ok to ruin a kid’s life because you are pushing Linux in gaming, yes or no?

      It’s not.

      Look, you are not necessarily wrong, in holding the opinion that Valve’s monetization practices are so horrible, that they ruin the company’s entire reputation. It’s a valid moral boundary. But at the end of the day, it’s just an opinion, not some objective law of the universe and other people can weigh the scales differently without being an evil person. Yet you portray it as the TRUTH. And it’s a bit ironic, that when people disagreed you started talking about echo chambers and attacking the community. This is why you got downvoted.

        Wtf is wrong with you, lot? It seems like when you say “valve is a shitty company” is the equivalent of saying “gaben is evil incarnate and eats baby for breakfast”.

        I’m starting to get sick of red pilled people commenting here saying it is an extremist view to say that a company is shitty because they have shitty practices. I’m done responding if that’s your comment, so spare us both time.

      So you’re saying that since a company is reprehensible in one area, all their other accomplishments should be judged accordingly?

      Makes sense to me.

        Answer the question.
