Why don't they just shut down TF2 servers and call it a day?

All of their other games economies wod crumble if they did that

I'm not familiar with TF2, why would it break other game economies?

It would set a precedent for valve just pulling the plug on a game/marketplace. If all your digital collectibles in a game, some "worth" thousands of dollars can't be accessed/used, everyone would start fire sales on their other inventories.

This makes sense, thank you

Especially bad when TF2 was pretty much the prototype for valve's item marketplace!
