You do understand when it says “developers” it’s not talking about individual, human developers that sit at a computer and code levels, and instead means “game development companies,” right? Also, it’s not a “whataboutism” - it’s a direct refutation of your argument. Your argument was specifically about Valve being a “good company.” I provided evidence that it’s not a good company. That’s not a whataboutism. A whatabousim would be somebody criticizing Valve and someone else saying “well, what about Epic?!”

I am talking about people not companies.

Right, but your statements are entirely in response to what you believe Epic’s PR statements are saying. Earlier you stated:

The point remains Epic lies saying they “help devs” Valve never claims anything.

This is what you said. You are assuming that Epic has made claims that it helps individual developers (people whose job is to develop games). I don’t think this is accurate: I believe that the intent behind Epic’s statements is that it aims to help “Game Development Companies.”

Either way, it doesn’t really matter. Epic, Valve, whomever: they’re companies. Loyalty to them is pathetic.

  • 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
