      Valve also doesn’t pursue anti consumer goals on daily basis.

      Valve pioneered lootboxes and marketing gambling to children, why does everyone forget that?

        But they are/were publicly traded.

        Being publicly traded inherently means you need to show growth every 3 months or your shares are worthless. Cue the enshittification and squeezing pennies from every revenue stream possible.

        That’s the sole reason Valve hasn’t gone down that path is its status in this regard.
