Gabe Newell says no-one in the industry thought Steam would work as a distribution platform—'I'm not talking about 1 or 2 people, I mean like 99%' (www.pcgamer.com)

Valve has been a company you can be proud of for decades.

So proud of a company whos ceo built a billion dollar fleet of mega yachts abducting kids into gambling.

I love how you spam the same copy pasted stupidity everywhere steam is mentioned without knowing what abducted means.

Especially since the most expensive ones are - an experimental fishing vessel designed as a test platform for better eco-stewardship in the fishing industry, a mobile hospital that travels to places that can't afford hospitals, or are experiencing a major catastrophe that has left their medical facilities overwhelmed, one of the most advanced scientific vessels when it was built, and more plans for boats with purposes like these.

Yes, there are luxury ones, but, as far as billionaire's production of super yachts go, Gabe is still the least worst billionaire I personally know of.
