Intern's Language Skills Rescue Valve from Financial Ruin

A new documentary celebrating the 20th anniversary of Half-Life 2 reveals that a Korean-speaking intern named Andrew played a crucial role in saving Valve and the PC gaming industry. During a legal battle with publisher Sierra Entertainment in 2002, Andrew discovered a key document proving Sierra's misconduct, which helped Valve win the lawsuit. This victory allowed Valve to retain rights to its franchises and led to the development of Steam, transforming it into the largest digital distribution platform and shaping the modern PC gaming landscape.
