happened in the 80’s with over saturation of shitty titles. Nintendo had to invent a seal specifically because of too many shitty games. Other companies developed their own methods of verification (Gabe Newell famously is an ex Microsoft employee) ID literally creates the .bsp file type. NOBODY else had this technology or access
The result was: innovation. in the years following the 80s game crash after we got classics like Mario 64, Half life and Doom.
while the 80s crash did lead to nintendo tightening up restrictions to the nintendo NES platform, gabe didn’t invent the bsp - that’s Henry Fuchs and Bruce Naylor.
everyone had access to bsp tech because it was literally a standard printed in Computer Graphics: Principles and Practice.
Gabe came along later, licensed the tech ID built on top of all that, and that’s where Half Life comes from.
