Oh come on the same news paper saying the lawyers are fixing the issue of evidence that should finalize the verdict. MAYBE READ.

You'll have to help me out here because I didn't quote a newspaper. So I'm not sure what point you're disputing here.

I'm going to assume it's the wolfire games lawsuit since you menioned the lack of a final verdict.

I'm just going to say the same thing as before. There's no final verdict. I'd rather wait and see the outcome rather than jump to conclusions. That means both "Valve bad" and "Valve good" opinions.

You are just creating double standards as the truth of EU lawsuit is easy found but you don’t care. You looked into easy reporting of Valve case that defies them in better light.

My man, I haven't disputed anything about the EU lawsuit. I've agreed on the Geoblocking issue and that I can't find anything on the exclusivity stuff. I can't comment on something I can't find. Are you just angry because I'm not blindly agreeing with you or something?

You didn’t cate about the fact or evidence. You only want yourself to believe Valve is the good guy.

Except for the fact that I have gone looking for facts and evidence. Don't accuse me of something you're guilty of, just with the opposite goal of wanting to believe that Valve is evil.

If I wanted to believe that valve is the good guy I wouldn't have agreed with some of your points like

Valve guilty of not following AU law for customer refunds.

That’s fair enough.

But for some reason you didn't accept this and tried to push it further as if I didn't already agree.

During the AU lawsuit Valve was fined for trying to hide the truth about refunds. Valve lawyers fought to the highest court to not pay the millions.

I didn’t dispute this at all. Why are you reiterating on something I agreed with like I said anything different?

Fishing for a specific response? I've agreed that valve broke AU law. But because I don't have an extreme opinion on the matter, that's not good enough, apparently.

Don't give me the facts and evidence shit when you've literally been spreading blatent false information to have some excuse to say valve bad. Especially when I posted evidence where I could regarding your misinformation.

Funny how you dropped all that misinformation as well the second I called it out. Didn't try to defend it. Just conveniently act like it never happened.

You also tried the facts and evidence argument once, it didn't work.

Speaking of, just realised you conveniently forgot yet another claim. Remember how you claimed valve was abusive to their employees and I asked for proof? Haven't heard any mention of that from you since. Another case of misinformation?

You don’t even dare to research the truth either

I’ve been open about my attempts to search about these things. I’ve also taken every opportunity to ask you for help in finding this information. I’ve also not commented on the things I couldn’t find any information about. I’ve backed up as many of my claims as I could. Wish the same could be said about you, who has been largely spouting objectively wrong information with no indication of research at all.

I guess you didn't get the response you wanted, so you're trying again hoping for something different?

This is a common misconception in trump supporters that only viewing small companies that benefit from good content.

Bro back at it again with the "You don't share the exact same views as I do therefore you're the worst thing I can think of" nonsense.

Whatever happened to this, btw?

The list goes on and on. They are criminals and supporting criminals makes you a criminal.

Conveniently dropping another point because you didn't get the response you wanted? Seems like a running theme.

I mean you've already rehashed about 3 points you've already tried, and failed. Why not go for another.

You only want yourself to believe Valve is the good guy.

Not really, in the first reply I made I even stated that valve isn't an innocent company and they have very real issues. But at the same time, no company is the good guy. I just think that as far as problems every company has, valve is not as bad. Once again, yes, they have problems. But no, none of it is enough to have me sharing the same opinions as you.

That's how it be.

Sorry for not taking the things I'm told at face value and making an attempt at applying some critical thinking to come to my own conclusions. I just find that better than blindly agreeing to a random stranger that really, really wants me to affirm their own views.
