Can we not go after one of the few good guys in gaming? Please? If you want to hound someone Nintendo is right over there.

No. It's easier to go after the "good guys" than the bad guys because they're easier to beat. They won't use all kinds of slimy, underhanded tactics to fuck you over.

Edit: I don't approve of the lawsuit against valve, but that's the way of the world. Scummy companies and people have many tools they can use to drag you down to their level.

Companies are never your friend.

Valve is like any other company. They're as good as your money is good.

Its still going after the LEAST shitty company and expecting your life to get better when the competition is FAR WORSE

Fair, but not-shitty companies eventually become shitty companies in almost every circumstance. I hate making the argument that someone is fine because they only hurt a few people compared to the guy who hurts lots.
