That happened because EA got greedy and forced people to buy ME DLC using the scammy Bioware Points, Valve came out of that smelling like roses even if everyone knew why they actually did it.
That is an excellent example. The Mass Effect DLC model and its pricing was obscene. Interestingly not many people were very upset with absolute bullshit method of selling DLC for that game. Probably one of the most scummy ways to sell DLC, especially considering it was an SP game.
So while a bullshit policy on EA's part, Valve was only interested in their cut that they weren't getting. Let us not pretend it was any other reason.
