    Based on what I’ve heard of the internal structure of Valve, there’s a good chance he’s helped foster enough an environment of “doing what you love” that it’d survive him retiring/dying. Maybe not forever, but at least for a long while after he’s gone.

      And hopefully by that time they’ve built up the open source community enough that even if Valve turned bad they wouldn’t be able to do much damage
