I disagree. Valve has no shortage of money, and would only end up burning goodwill by putting out a subpar product. From their perspective, it's better to have a loyal, if rabid, fan base rather than the backlash a bad product would generate.

But they have all that money to NOT put out a subpar product, but instead they hoard it for themselves.

It’s a strange argument to make in this world, the corp should keep the money instead of spending it putting money back into the market through hiring and wages? Making a product for people to buy?

They already get bad backlash from the lack of updates and content, they clearly don’t care about that, they want their hoard.
