The Half-Life franchise isn't dead.
It'll likely happen in the form of Half-Life VR.
Episode Three is dead.
They'd be mutilating a corpse to prop it up and sell something entirely different

If Valve is that chaotic now...either there isn't even going to be a Team Fortress3/Left4Dead3/Counter-Strike2/Portal3 or they're going to be poorly executed.
I think you'd be surprised...Uhh
Alright?
Because closure for a fucking dead relative and closure for a computer game are the same thing
Dumb post
LolThe next Half-Life game is going to be whip ass.
I was only surprised by the assumptionI think you'd be surprised...
Of course they're not going to respond. Laidlaw exposed the entire company, for what it has become. Nothing Valve can say will fix this, short of actuallly saying he's wrong and we intend to release the game (which at this stage is not physical possible. It is analogous to SEGA announcing tomorrow they developing a new console despite lacking the resources to achieve this.)
That video you just linked that got flagged too.... what's going on? Is Valve really going after VNN?
Read my post 2 posts up, it has nothing to do with Valve.
The fact that there are guns in the video and such.Okay, but what could possibly trigger it in that video? It's just HL gameplay.

Everybody keeps saying that "It can't possibly live up to expectations" and I think that is bullshit.I think Valve were/are in an impossible position with HL3/EP3. For some reason the hype level surrounding these is insane. Don't get me wrong, HL2 is amazing, I love it - but I don't think it deserves the god tier treatment it sometimes gets.
Anyway, I think Valve are in an impossible position because no matter what they release, it simply won't match up to peoples expectations for the game. HL2 brought new stuff to games/the genre with all the physics based stuff. That's a part of most games now so what can HL3 really do that is new/interesting that is on the same level?
If I were Valve I'd just milk CSGO as it is, release a new L4D and possibly a new Portal.
Case in point: the reaction to this synopsis itself was overwhelmingly positive. If they made what Laidlaw wrote here, I guarantee it would live up to the hype.
It's easy to say "this is what would have happened" and give a summary and get a positive response, it's harder to make that into an actual working game that lives up to the hype that's been built up over the years.
