We learned just how small Valve really is this year, but also how good it is at raking in the cash: It’s making more money per employee than Apple

Valve is directly responsible for skins in Counter Strike which are gotten with 100% gambling mechanics. The fact that they can be sold for real life cash adds to this. I’m not saying its only Valve doing this, plenty of other games on Steam as well, but they certainly have a horse in the race.

Agreed, we should not make it seem like Valve has no responsibility just because it doesn’t directly own the casinos, gambling sites, etc. They benefit financially from the way the whole system is set up and they know it. Every round and transaction directly benefits Valve financially. The more underage people get addicted to the casino system they have going on, the more money Valve gets.

I mean, who made the GUI a copy of a slot machine?

They could end this whole thing tomorrow if they wanted to.

I watched my cousin get suckered by one of those a few years ago.

£50 Steam voucher in, fuck all out. Hooray for letting 14 year olds gamble their Christmas presents away…

Lets hope your cousin learned his lesson then.

He seems to have done. I think he’s a trainee accountant now and plays crown green bowling.
