We're simply imagining different cases. I'm thinking about straightforward copyright violations I've read about recently in the games industry.
Regardless, I don't see why Valve couldn't fund a lawsuit based on a novel legal theory.
Share links to these violations, cases, case outcomes, etc.
I don't know why people are downvoting me. Folks, Valve aren't going to fund these lawsuits. It's a fantasy.
Edit: I keep trying to reply to you but you keep removing them before I can! It isn't personal in any way. I am simply looking to see what the arguments were and whether it was an already-released game having its assets stolen, vs. a game that is not yet released being knocked off with AI, vs. something else. I wanted to see what the cases actually played out like.
One of the threats that is highlighted in the article posted is that they want to extort games which are not yet released. Which is certainly juicy in its own right.

It's not personal for me either, but I am going to let you satisfy your curiosity on your own.
