it's amazing how irrelevant they are with games now
they aren't even involved with their games anymore, TF2 is basically running off of fan content and hardly anything else
the only thing they got going for them is Dota 2 which wasn't even an original idea in the first place
Still runs one of the biggest marketplaces in games = irrelevant? Just because they're not producing new games regularly doesn't make them have no impact.
Also, the idea that DOTA2 doesn't matter because it's 'not an original idea' is hilarious. League is the biggest game in the world. DOTA doesn't pull in the same numbers but is still the second largest MOBA. That's huge.
Valve is relevant. They just pivoted away from SP games and embraced the online route for every aspect of the business. And judging by the money they make? That was probably the smart decision from a business sense.
