- Comment on Valve makes almost $50 million per employee, raking in more cash per person than Google, Amazon, or Microsoft — gaming giant's 350 employees on track to generate $17 billion this year 3 days ago:
OK, but the Saudis bought EA to gameswash their horrendous political image, not to tarnish it further and throw their money away.

Microsoft are looking to exit the console space, and trying to latch onto other hardware systems.
There’s no motive for anyone to sue valve over this.
They might as well sue fucking dell.EA, Ubisoft , Rockstar all tried their own distrobution platforms and people only use them when they’re forced, like Epic store for fortnite.
All this shit is is a mini PC running linux. You could have set up your own “steam machine” for fucking ever, maybe without valve OS, but something similar.The only ones that might be getting mad at it is facebook, because the frame might compete with oculus whatever.

Instead of working and competing, they will sue until there’s no tomorrow.
why? Valve obviously have more money than them. EA and etc have shitloads of cash. Do they have “majority of PC game sales” cash? No. They have “generic sports game annual release” cash. while that is a lot, it’s not the same ballpark.

so glad I got married and had kids before this.
I never used Tinder, but it might make it to the other platforms
- Comment on Microsoft wants a slice of Valve's pie (and more Deck gaming news) 8 months ago:
I doubt a single person who is currently enjoying the openness of a Deck, Go, Ally, et cetera will voluntarily blunder back into a freedom-restricting walled garden of any sort.
yeah, I’m sure you could have made the same statement in the early 2000s about ipods and macs and iphones. Those people you are talking about are early adopters, also, it’s already currently flawed since most people who are currently using that format of gaming hardware are using a Nintendo Switch, which is about as walled of a garden as you can have.
- Comment on Indie devs have begun adding a no generative AI stamp to their store pages 8 months ago:
It makes decisions.
It generates content.
- Comment on Indie devs have begun adding a no generative AI stamp to their store pages 8 months ago:
this is stupid, there’s SO many indie games using procedural generation which is fucking generative AI. It’s in a shitload of them, from speulunky to Darkest Dungeon 2.
