As Sun Tzu says: 不战而屈人之兵，善之善者也
Fixed the comic:
Blatant Valve lies.
More like “Subdue the merchants, and you win.”Valve is a landlord that forces merchants to price fix their sales at losses. That’s anti free market.
Vale is a market organizer that won’t give you a stall if you’ll sell your product for cheaper elsewhere.
At least they don’t make exclusivity deals or force devs to remove Linux support from their games like Epic Games.Did you even read Wolfire Games LLC v. Valve Corporation (2:21-cv-00563)?
They do that, and further mafia tactics.Valve’s a mafia.
Did you read all of that? I can’t find any verdicts except for some (all?) of the plaintiffs being dismissed without prejudice. So many of the documents are sealed.
- did
- Dismissal ≠ disproven. The judge dismiss the case, but the redacted emails can be confirmed with DKIM.
- The issue is exactly that Valve DOES make exclusivity deals, and try to coerce developers to add their telemetry into their games.
- I got downvoted to hell because Valve will never support Alpha, IA-32, PA-RISC, SH3, SPARC, & VAX PCs.
