I seriously don’t understand how people can still hold Valve up as this paragon of virtue, defender of gamers everywhere.

Oh, People Make Games have not one but two vids on Valve? I never noticed that, thanks. I'll watch them after work and possibly (because PMG really are good at the whole journalising stuff) change my stance on it.

Well, you know, holders of virtual monopolies are well known for being benficient paragons of prosocial goodness. At least, whenever their owners are known by their screen names and they produced a beloved product once, a quarter century ago.

That last half-sentence really isn't in good faith. Just in the past couple years Valve made three "beloved products" that come to my mind immediately. Valve Index (the VR set), SteamDeck (the handheld PC) and the Steam Controller (although that one could be a bit older than "just in the past couple years").
