Half Life? Full Life Consequences.

You let us all down Gabe. After years of just leading us on. Dissapointed in you.
The ending to EP2 was bad, but can you imagine if that was the last thing we ACTUALLY got? People would be even more furious lol.
They wouldn't dare do something like that. The negative response would be massive.
That was the ending of Episode 3, and it's a far better place to stop than Episode 2. No one has said anything about Half-Life 3, if it ever really existed.
Thought this was a joke thread at first. Wow if real....
Jimquisition episode please.
Or just any big youtuber covering this. Sites need to as well.
Are you fucking telling me it was gonna end on another cliffhanger!?
Well unless Half-Life 3 was going to be played from the perspective of Alyx, it seems that it never really existed. That's the implication of the end of that post, that Gordon's story is over.
What *is* absolutely a dick move is the fact that they weren't upfront about it.
Dota is one of the best mobas, CSGO is one of the best FPS.
We have actual good single player FPS games in Metro, Wolfenstein, Doom, Titanfall 2 if what you're looking for is a single player FPS.
Like seriously it took a blog post a decade after the fact to do something Valve and or Gabe could have done in one press release fucking ages ago to just say "it's dead, the franchise ended, sorry".
Their constant and blatant disdain for their own consumers is fucking absurd.
It is completely insane how people think "Valve won't make the games I demand them to make" is a legitimate criticism.
it ends on a cliffhanger
IT....IT ENDS....IT ENDS ON A CLIFFHANGER
HAHA?

Yeah, there were rumours of Valve doing something HL related for VR, but then everyone seemed to leave all of a sudden. Got the feeling it's all dead now.With everyone else that has peaced out over the last year or two, I wonder if Doug Church will be officially be gone for good soon. He is halfway there working with Otherside.
The coverage will be there, but it's simply so late in the states when this happened that we'll likely have to wait until tomorrow to really see it blow up in the mainstream.
Valve News Network already has an acknowledgement vid, but will be giving a full video about this soon.
Open or ambiguous ending =/= Cliffhanger
Ever been to a casino?Sounds cool.
man I have no idea why pushing shitty skins and costumes on players is such an effective way to make money. People ought to be more discerning with their spending.
I am preparing myself for similar fuckery from Rockstar. Everybody knows its coming.
Honestly it's not THAT bad of a cliffhanger. That's actually a really cool ending, imo: the Half-Life 2/Combine story as seen through Gordon's eyes ends, but there's still story hooks for some kind of Alyx vs. Gordon story (or a story where you play as Alyx, or something). I think it would have been pretty satisfying to see. The Alyx thing is a pretty big payoff, even if it's inconclusive.
This is so weird. While it's true that Valve can do whatever they please, it's still unprecedented to see them walk away from something that was critically acclaimed, financially successful, and practically one of the most inarguably canonized franchises of all time. Like... at least GRRM pretends he's still going to write the rest of ASOIAF. Valve quietly taking Half-Life into the woods and leaving it there is wild.
I mean they nearly are in some ways. And that's fine. Why the hell make video games when you can work on getting a 30% cut of everybody else's games? It's smarter business - good for you that you landed this spot.Yeah. Valve likes to think they are the PC market at times.
How many hats should I buy to convince Valve to revive the series? Should I take out a mortgage on my house for this?
