    Guarantee we’re going to find out he’s a real dirt bag after everything is said and done he just keeps a tight circle.

      I doubt it. It’s obvious from looking at Gabe that he hasn’t really changed who is he from before he made his money.

      And his ethics at work with a flat hierarchy don’t scream over involved shitty boss.

      Mind you by virtue of having all that money, he isn’t good, but I don’t think he is bad either.

        imo nothing is obvious about gabe. very little is known about him. we see what he wants us to see, nothing more.

          We see how he runs Valve and how he interacts with customers. Both are pretty different to every other company. How many billionaires can you email to get help with low level account issues?

        Oh fuck off dude, the guy is a billionaire that means anyone who makes a purchase on Steam is paying more than the games are worth because there’s a fucking leech at the top who wants to buy a seventh yacht.

            They take their 30% cut, then the publisher takes another cut with another billionaire’s salary taken into consideration and then…

          He’s greedy as fuck leech no argument.

          But the dirt bag billionaires are the ones who it comes out allowed for a culture of fear, have sexual assault charges against them, power hungry manipulative fucks, etc. and I don’t see that coming out about Gabe.

            They’re all dirtbags, the reason why people like you and can barely afford to live comfortably is because of all the billionaires and multimillionaires. Just because they propose a nice product doesn’t mean they’re not responsible for much more harm than good.
