Valve made Half Life, TF2, DOTA2, Portal, etc. Each game is a giant in its field and has made Valve popular. Hi Rez has made... problems for existing fans of Tribes.

When Hi-Rez can compete in the same league as Valve, then their words have value. For now it's peewee league mad at varsity for being too good.

Also, Steam/Valve helps make Linux gaming possible. Hi-rez doesn't do Linux support. Can't play their games even if I wanted to.

Assholes can be right.

Don't play this 'where's your Bugatti?' ad hominem.

"Your games aren't as good, so your opinion is invalid" is definitely a take.
