Neat, but.

Even HL: Alyx left us with just as much of a cliffhanger as the end of HL2 Episode 2...

“Best I can do I more cliffhangers”

Even if they do repeat 3 (and I kinda feel they will,) it'll have a cliffhanger too. And I'm okay with that.

Tyler McVicker and Gabe Follower are saying that HL3 is in heavy development currently. Apparently they even have hired experienced devs from Rockstar, Id Software, Epic Games, Respawn, Sucker Punch and others to work on the game.

I'm skeptical tbh, I feel like VNN has been saying HL3 is in development for as long as I've been alive

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

Nah this is pretty concrete. There's a flat screen single player game in active development with features being added like vehicle physics, surface temperatures, NPC AI handling for non standard gravity, etc. And there are half life related strings all through it. HL3? Who knows, but it would explain why they actually acknowledged their two anniversaries...

I swear to God, if you are fucking with me I will find you somehow. I have a very specific set of skills, and they mostly pertaining to cooking, building, and drawing things, but they are skills nonetheless!

Half-Life: Alyx spoilersIt's gonna be wild watching Valve try to explain that Eli was brought back from the dead in a prequel game that took place years before Half-Life 2, that 90% of their fans couldn't play.
