Really? when you hear "steam" you think "the pioneers in exposing underage kids to gambling" ?

I can't even picture gaben with a wispy moustache to twist evilly. I think that would look ridiculous on him. :)

Your "bad guys" are my "people are apparently and inexplicably mad that steam doesn't do their parenting for them" guys.

Yes, they basically pioneered lootboxes, they shaped and scaled microtransaction economy around randomized outcome purchases under disguise of gaming and then slapped a marketplace on top of it(to take even further cut %% nonetheless).

Add a 500m gigayacht to the picture, maybe it will make it easier. Or a fleet.

MapleStory and FIFA have that crown, though Valve certainly did their part to popularize them.

Gigayachts that are used for tax avoidance.
