The problem of trying to buy Valve is that it's a private company, not a traded one. No one can buy shares of it to try to force anything. The only option is to convince Gabe to sell and that's also a problem because, as Valve is private, no one really knows how much money it has or makes, so basically Newell can ask anything it wants.

So yeah, the future of Valve is in Gabe Newell's hands, not in MSoft's or anyone else.

Gabe won't be around running Valve forever. He's been doing quite well, as far as I'm concerned, but he, like everyone else, has his limits.

Very true, but Gabe can decide who or which company he'll want to sell it, or if he's going to leave it to his children and under which conditions, etc.

The point is that nothing will happen without Gabe's consent, at least for the time being.

Is anyone familiar with incorrect playtimes suddenly appearing in your Steam profile? Out of nowhere in my Steam profile like a couple months after the overhaul, my playtime for Doom Eternal showed 92 hours even though it was actually 45 hours. But in my Steam library, it showed the correct playtime. I figured the issue would eventually get sorted out. But as of today, it's now showing the incorrect playtime in my library!!! Only in the games Steam page does it show the correct playtime when it's asking if I want to leave a review it's somehow getting worse with time! Has this ever happened to anyone else? Even shows the incorrect playtime in the Steam mobile app. 

That's an odd glitch or bug to have.

I personally haven't noticed it, but I don't really pay attention to the playtime numbers, so I could have something similar without realizing it.

Have you checked if there's a discussion about this on the forums? Maybe there's other people with the problem and may have a way to fix it.
