    yes, but valve still exploits people. They put on steam sales explicitly to get people to buy more. Especially poor people. More, that they otherwise might not be able to afford just because “it’s on sale!”

      I did not say he was innocent. I’m just less concerned with him than I am people like Thiel.

        Right. Because valve puts games on special just because they are good people. It’s absolutely NOT so people will buy more games than they otherwise would have. Definitely not. Nope

          How is selling stuff at a sale evil?

          Because valve puts games on special just because they are good people.

          Who said that? Please give a quote.

          So don’t buy games outside of your means? I never said they do it to be ‘good people’ but the fact that the game is on sale doesn’t force you to buy it. Be a responsible adult.
