Found in the comments on Steam. On one hand, I love that Steam is going in the opposite direction of literally every other company. On the other hand, it does seem like it’s not being done to be good guys.
It still was a nice surprise to see “btw no forced arbitration”.
Edit: I am too lazy to look for real sources, so take this with a grain of salt and go look for the real sources I’m too lazy to look for.
I don't quite see the point they're making, I'm assuming by "massive arbitration lawsuit" they mean they're being sued because of and to get rid of the arbitration clause?
I don't see how it's a win for them in either case tbh, maybe they're trying to avoid having a precedent set is all that I can think of
I keep seeing this all over the place and not once has it ever been sourced. Frankly this just screams of more epic games astroturfing to make people think valve bad
Yeah smells a lot like them. Throwing Chinese money away to force a "monopoly" shift didn't work and everyone saw through their practice. Loosing bribed companies left and right (Ubislob and Scam Enix for example). They are desperate and they know they cant count on Fortnite or Tencent forever.
The Valve typical silence treatment worked wonders on Swiney's mind.
