It really depends whether VALVe remains the Benevolent Dictatorship of GabeN or sells out, goes public or something.
In the latter case, what happens is the Extraction Vultures roll in, pitch some flashy slides about innovation and then progressively ruin PC gaming.
That can't be allowed to happen, so therefore, VALVe can't be allowed to monopolise this market.

- mattkevan 1y agoAfter years of working in public companies, where nothing mattered beyond the next quarterly results, I’m lucky to be working for a company that’s both a B Corp and an Employee Owned Trust. Instead of exiting to a buyout or IPO the founder basically sold the company to itself. Makes a huge difference when a company can just remain comfortably profitable and doesn’t have to chase double digit growth.
