There are companies that can operate control by using the money they get from billion of customers, and other companies that prefer to use the money the take from billion of customers to teach citizens how unfair the governments are.

Those who are manipulated in favor of big corps are generally poorly educated individuals, so you can have huge number of that people, which translate in both social, economical and political power.

The point is not Valve, which me or you can respect and enjoy as company, the problem is that laws affect everyone. If the laws favor predatory companies, Valve has either adapt to be predator or being extinguished.

Extremist as defined by who? Valve lets the customer decide what is too extreme for them, which is how it should be.

I think is best also in your interest, as consumer (and human being, if you aren't Zuckeberg or Bezos) if companies are called accountable for the crap they spread just to make investor happy.

You may like Valve for their way of business, but the law doesn't work per persona: what it allow is a allowed to everyone (generally and depending if you're in a theocracy, oligarcy etc.)

I don't think people shrugged off on Concord because poor quality such as bug or inconsistency. Concord was a fine Overwatch-wannabe that went for hard-sci realism (not as interesting as stylized/cartoon as TeamFortress2 and Overwatch). Pubg had realism, but it was the original trendsetter. CoD aside (which has its own historical fellowship) how many other multiplayer GaaS went successful with that sort of realism as Lawbreakes.

Also, blue water/red water problem: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Ocean_Strategy

In few years, you may find more useful your kidney rather an HD that can hold just 3~4 copies of the latest CoD

...or the videogame is known to make views on youtube.

Anyway, this don't undermine the intention of the developer.

IMHO: Valve is phasing off the very initial gen. of Steam Deck to focus OLED/HDR (which would benefit Linux gaming ecosystem), as SteamDeck is certainly a standard defining device for Linux gaming ecosystem.

Don't forget the cutshare

29 = (8.7 to Valve) (20.3 Pocket)

7m are on Xbox, so the count is:

Pocket = 243.6 m (on 12m copies sold)

Valve = 104.4 m ( on 12m copies sold)
