He's full of shit too:

Some guy: "Isn't the 75% cut seen as a bit high?"

Dirtbag: The pay-outs are set by the owner of the game that is being modded.

Another guy: "Is 25% profit a normal amount for content creators in comparable situations? I see a lot of people complaining about the cut Valve and Bethesda receive."

Dirtbag: Each game sets its own share.


WRONG! Apparently the truth is that Valve takes a 30% cut of the profit, which is huge by itself, and the game developer takes another cut on top of that. The content creator gets the scraps. Nice attempt at shifting all the blame on Bethesda.

And his Batman-like 'Just flash me the light, I'll fix your problem right now!' attitude in that thread? It's just such an obvious, dishonest PR stunt at damage control. If he really was like that Steam wouldn't have been having problems for years.

Makes me wonder how big of an asshole Batman would be in real life.
