Why are we quoting each other? I remember the comment before yours. I made it. Idiot.

Grow up

Here is a response without any quotes, I'm sure their ommision makes this comment much clearer:

Valve hasn't done this.

At the end of January, Xbox fired 1900 employees:

It's Phil Spencer's fault that they released Redfall at 70$. It is his fault that he promised the game will be polished. It is his fault people who paid for the DLC will never get it.

He also closed Tango, which made a critically acclaimed game.

Valve has also published 8 games in 10 years. They did acquire Campo Santo studios between 2016 and 2018 which lead to the delayment of Valley of the Gods because Valve put the studio's members on other projects including Steam, Dota Underlords, and Half Life: Alyx.

They didn't close Campo Sango though, and haven't closed other studios they bought historically (like Turtle Rock, which eventually became independent of Valve again and released Back 4 Blood).

You asked for an example, he gave you one. Then you try to discredit it with a red herring illogical argument.

You should take your temporary ban and reflect on what is truly important in your life. Because you clearly need some help.
