Reminds me of the little stick figure wars we'd draw instead of paying attention in math class (on gods I don't need to review subtraction for another month, I get how it works)
Steam is a product (and brand) of Valve, there is no parent company. They used the steam logo for the same reason it's Xbox on there and not Microsoft.

Gog should just be sitting in the corner, drinking tea and reading a book, or something equally non-chalant.
