This is such a shame, it is such exceptional work... Hopefully switching engines will allow the project to continue.

For the record: the commenter I am replying to has shown over and over to be very rude and every comment for as far as I can see scrolling down for quite a while is something negative about Valve even when it's simple facts like what they replied to this time.

I wouldn't dare say take anything they say super seriously, and we of course do all know that Valve is still just a company.

Valve negatives are always being shaped into nothingness or acting like it’s normal. A stolen patient is not normal corporate behavior.

They're explained and what gets marked as normal means normal for what their goal towards the general public seems to be, you just look like an insane person with what your profile looks like.

You are the problem if you think a billion dollar corporation should steal game controllers, should not offer refunds, should locked games into locations and other criminal activity that can put you in jail.

All of those things sounds like conspiracy theory talk to me because none of what you said is strange.

There's no stealing a controller design and there never has been, they offer refunds in their exact terms which everyone knows and the locking games in locations (if true) is 100% controlled by the person who put the games on Steam.

Every other organization is also a criminal organization, no one cares that they stole a patent and they have always been fair and square with their return times.

Stop dedicating your life to hating on Valve and looking at only negative stuff especially when it DOES NOT matter.
