    Honestly that’s why i pie rate. I get to keep that file and put it in external drive, and it will never be unavailable.

      Do it loudly and keep teaching others how to.

      Steam taught us that piracy is a service issue and this shit right here is a service issue.

        Early Netflix proved it too and are currently showing us what happens when the service gets worse

          Absolutely. I haven’t personally pirated anything since getting netflix years ago, but its looking more and more tempting to get back into it.

          So long as gaben draws breath that won’t happen, and his children are VERY in line with their fathers vision and choices from all appearances.

          So at the earliest we have at least one generation after gaben that we likely won’t have to worry.

          Typically it’s the grandkids that ruin everything tho when it comes to family businesses. Normally cause the kids suck ass at teaching their parents wisdom.

          And the great grandkids basically ALWAYS ruin everything.

          Still weird to think of valve as a privately owned family business. But it is.
