[–] 2 points 4 months ago (6 children)

One of them is over two years old

Which only proves my point. They allegedly do, and we yet to discover if they actually do it or Epic, Ubisoft and whatever another publisher are lying. 2 years to prove if Valve was abusing the system and still nothing out there to confirm this suspicion.

I suspect that is really tough to prove and that is why eventually case will be dropped due to lack of evidence.

    A court case with zero evidence doesn't last 2 years...

    Court case with undeniable and sufficient evidence also doesnt last long. There is more to the story than "they do it/they dont do it"

    But claiming they do before it has been proven is dumb.

    Defending a company with multiple unrelated entities suing them over the same thing, including non competitors, before they've been proven to NOT be doing that thing is very stupid.

    with multiple unrelated entities suing them

    How do we know they're really unrelated? A lot of the lawsuits are in the US, where bribery lobbying is very prevalent, and the lawsuits brought forth by private entities could be backed by Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo, Epic, etc. under the table. Hell, any publisher/developer involved in the ESA is by definition not "unrelated".

    Until these lawsuits are fully resolved, nothing has been proven. All we have are claims and speculation at the moment.
