It sure sounded like you were. It’s because you said cash grab. That’s a negative attribute. You basically said it’s garbage but made him a lot of money. Along the lines of like the last 4 terminator movies.
Well, I use Steam a ton and have a Steam Deck. But, Steam dev effort to income ratio is probably ridiculously skewed. The company pretty much prints money. In that way, Steam is a cash grab.
I do question if Steam hadn’t been such a success if Valve might have released HL3 by now.
It has Google vibes to it. Google makes so much money in ad revenue that a lot of their other products just get cancelled.
I do like Valve overall though and am a fan. I’m a fan that wants to know the ending of HL3.

His cash grab was steam, lol.
Damn that bastard for making the best platform for buying and playing games. How dare he.
I’m not complaining, just noting that it was very lucrative. Folks are really overreacting with the downvotes. Chill people.
