“If it ain’t broke don’t fix it”

True, since launching the most celebrated VR game ever in 2020, then redefining handhelds in 2022 (while completely turning Linux gaming on its head in passing), Valve has done nothing other than release the sequel to the most popular PC shooter of all time. However do they stay in business?

That’s what I was thinking. They are still on top because they aren’t just complacent with their position. Of course it helps that their competition doesn’t really do anything new.

It’s called being privately owned

That alone doesn’t mean much. Private businesses can still suck.

Yeah, but they aren’t legally required to suck to appease the shareholders like public businesses are.

It only ignores the context if you’re assuming I am saying Valve is one of those private businesses that sucks. Having shareholders doesn’t mean a company will suck, just as being private is no guarantee it won’t suck.

Imagine if the comment I replied to said “the sky is always blue” and I pointed out that sunrises and sunsets can be orange, pink or purple and entirely black at night.
