Can’t remember a single Valve game that is $60 (today $80?) that has a Battle Pass, built in micro transactions that are pay-to-win, half-assed DLCs that should’ve been in base game, or a game being unfinished mess on release.
Valve is not a saint. But even with lootboxes they bring way more good to gaming industry in comparison to literally any other gaming company.

Bonus round!
Can you guess a game that has all these 4 points?
Dota has a battle pass and micro transactions
That is purely comestics.
But the money from that goes to professional players that participate in the tournament and to organizers who organize the event.
How much money from battle pass goes to Fortnite/Battlefield/COD pro players?
You didn’t say anything about where the money goes, you just said you can’t recall a Valve game with microtransactions or a battlepass. Dota has both.
If we want to have a discussion about how they spend that money, then I agree, Valve does a much better job than EA or Blizzard or similar
$50 says it’s an EA game
I’LL TAKE THAT…no I won’t take that bet, me thinks!
