    This article is pure clickbait. But eventually Gabe is going to die. And when that day happens we are going to see Valve either transform into a foundation, or become everything that it had resisted through its entire life. Gabe is a stand-up guy. No question.

    His successors, are not going to be Gabe. They’re going to chipaway at his philosophy. It’s only a matter of time

              Lmao they laid off 1900 from Activision Blizzard last year and shuttered multiple XBox game studios this month! Sure, I suppose they could all just hang around and work as volunteers, but I suspect they’ll be doing that exodus thing.

                Mass firing is not an exodus. Exodus is when people are fleeing, and generally in terms of liberation. Firing people is just firing people

                  No definition I’ve ever heard requires an exodus to be initiated by the people leaving. Also, if you read the comment that started all this, I was explicit that I didn’t mean employee-led. So thanks for stopping by weeks later to display your ignorance and/or lack of reading comprehension.
