Court documents show that not only is Valve a fraction the size [only 336 employees in 2021] of companies like EA or Ubisoft, it's smaller than a lot of triple-A developers (www.pcgamer.com)

In another comment you say yourself they are not developing games.

i did?

If you're talking about the comparison to a triple A game studio, yeah they aren't a triple A game studio, they aren't making a fucking witcher 4. This is like comparing fucking BMW to some guy who creates gokarts in his spare time because he thinks it's fun.

Regardless, an indie game team of about 3 people can produce a really good game. I'm surprised you seem to think valve isn't more than a small indie team managing more than one game.

Every game ever is missing a working anticheat. They're probably not doing large content releases because their busy working on the fucking anticheat :)
