So what. They already have their article and it will be out anyways within like two years latest probably. The value of talking about deadlock is much higher and valve profits from this advertising as well.
The so what is that this writer for the verge will likely never be trusted with NDA type pre-release access for any other games going forward, and this may even impact all of the Verge.
This isn't just a one and done kind of issue, this will be seen by the entire industry as a "can't trust that guy with pre-release access"
They didn't get an NDA.
Sure they don't have any trust from the industry anymore.
It doesn't have to be a legal document for there to be consequences.
