oh, i guess you’re right. they’re just a privately owned corporation. regardless of specific terminology the point stands. they aren’t publicly traded and certainly aren’t a megacorp. and i also don’t agree with evening they do. i generally like gog better.

people are just always painting things like this with way too broad of a stroke. there’s a serious problem with conglomeration. Sony is a megacorp in the gaming space. a true megacorp that makes and has a gigantic hand in almost everything. from tvs to music to books to weapons of war. they exist solely to absorb wealth from any and all spaces they can. I’m real bummed about them acquiring kadokawa recently… it will not be good for games, anime, manga, or light novels.

that is not valve. they are not part of that problem and this point is weakened by people saying that they are.
