Completely disengenuous. They said off around 30 people in 2013 from the AR department. This is tiny. You also left out this bit: "Post-layoff, Gabe Newell personally allowed Ellsworth and the ex-employees to take the AR technology/IP they had developed (she reportedly bought it from Valve for a nominal $100) and spin it out into their own startup, castAR. This was a specific accommodation for departing employees, not typical contractor handling."

That doesn’t change the difference of how that works. Source 2 is Valve’s engine and UE is Epics, Epic isn’t making “thousands” of games. Last “game” epic release was Lego Fortnite and Rocket Racing. Rocket racing is being shut down and they laid off employees from Fortnite. So no, they don’t make thousands. Epic Games has made 3 games in the last 5 years, and Valve has made 2.

Can you mod Nintendo’s games without their lawyers coming after you? Nope. That is extremely anti-consumer. Can you play and preserve their older games without their lawyers coming after you? Nope, that is also extremely anti-consumer. And can you develop a game without spending 3 years reading every single patents because Nintendo engages in patent trolling? Nope, that is both anti-consumer AND anti-developer. You cant even jump or summon a companion because Nintendo has a patent on BOTH ON THEM. Basic mechanics that are mandatory for a game to be remotely functional PATENTED BY NINTENDO. But of course keep bootlicking.
