Valve reinvests and does more work then basically every other major studio. It's just a lot of back end stuff they don't market.

Since valve doesn't care about selling anything. Their service sells it self so they don't need to shove it in your face.

They are a hardware and software RnD company more then a game studio too. Which is just boring to most gamers till there is a finished product or someone points out that x y or z was because of a decade of effort by valve in the back ground.
