Even if the finale hadn't been a retcon and this shit wasn't VR, who gives a fuck anymore?

>retcon
no thanks

Episode 3 was already "confirmed" with a cliffhanger 12 years ago, Epistle 3 was the epilogue anyway.

Half Life was never good, nobody cares anymore. People only cared about Portal

Vorged

Portal should have been Half Life 3

Too late, 15 years too late

VORT'D

They're never going to release Half Life 3. Ever. When will you fucks learn?

We bet everything on Duke and lost hard. There's nothing left.

so embarrassed he ran away

probably because VR games are retarded

>probably because VR games are retarded
said the user who has never played one.

>Release pretty good game with heavy focus on story
>To stay relevant, Valve should release sequel within 3 years
>They miss their opportunity by a full decade. They religiously avoid commenting on the franchise. Radio silence.

WOA

yawn

lmao look at dis vortigaunt running away like a bitch ass nigga

>gets kissed on the forehead
>has no idea what the fuck that means

The prestige of the franchise has died several years ago. Whatever Valve is planning with HL3, they will have to conquer the fandom all over again.

this

VR EXCLUSIVE that happend.

Just like HL2-EP1?

every big youtuber has gameplay series on HL:A, game peaked at 300k views on twitch, HL:A trailer has 10m+ views with almost zero marketing done, game released only couple months after being announced to critical acclaim claiming 1st place on global best sellers list on steam - and that's not counting copies given for free for index buyers. To give you and idea how well index sold, last year it sold 150k units, 100k of which were after HL release. After restock it sold out within 10 seconds. I have 7 friends who own alyx out of whom only 3 have played it. Rest is still waiting for their indexes

Do you people actually do believe that this game is forgotten?

>almost zero marketing done
Valve really is a strange company

It's been a long time, the story of episode 3 was leaked, and the cliffhanger doesn't mean anything anymore.

Never cared about it in the first place. I don't get why Half Life is so popular. It's a good series, nothing more, nothing less.

What retcon?

One of the things I like about HLA is that it helps show why she loves and trusts the virtigaunts so much. They do so much for her in the game

Looks like you haven't played the games.

vortboys a cute

The Half-life games were technically impressive in their time, but enough time has passed for people to realize they weren't actually good.

>moving goalposts

All HL games were free, you had the opportunity to play and didn't.
Now you makes yourself looks like a fool by saying "hurr retcon" when HL2 and episodes done that shit over 10 years ago when you were still sucking on ur mom's tits.

Sorry if I've never seen the appeal of spending a thousand dollars so I can strap my monitor to my face and play with Wiimotes.

They were outstanding, for the time they were released in. Now they are just above average.

>retcons Ep2
That's why.
An ending built for reddit.

They turned to the last resort of the desperate writer: time travel. Why would anybody have any respect for the game?

Ep1 had no retcons. Ending of HLA was a retcon and shitty writing in general. Cope.

>HL3 will be devoted to a gimmick as stupid as waggle

Half-Life deserved better

>v doesnt care
its been a decade and its only Vr exclusive more than likely. why bother paying a shit ton of money. unless they manage to make it playable on mouse and keyboard no one cares anymore also retcon sucks

I should've expected this with the awful writing through out the game.

as if anybody respects you at all...

In this case, it is not Yas Forums, it is the case in question.
No one cares about HL as they did anymore and with reason.
When HL3 is announced it will be an event not because the game, but the story surrounding the status of the series, it is a meme game, if you will.

>REDDDDDDDDDDIIIIIIT
Shut up.

You never played 1, right?

It's less confirmed than Episode 3, a game that never got released

They just replaced the cliffhanger with a cliffhanger I'm not invested in because I'm never going to play Half-Life: Alyx
I am not their target audience anymore. I'll wait for my shitty Epistle 3 fangame instead.

Half life has always been a gimick.

All the games were made to sell the engines they ran on aside from Episode 1 and 2 but that was to show off more of what they could do with it.

Translation: I'm old and unable to enjoy anything anymore. It's okay, say it. I got into Half Life and its lore only a year ago and to me Alyx was great.

me on the right

Nigga, I own HL2 and all it's episodes

People have died waiting for this game.
You can't reset IRL, user.

I'm too poor to buy gimmick hardware for one game.

HL1 was running on modified id tech, it was hardly trying to sell its engine

Warning: Valve shills level critical. Evacuate thread immediately.

$300 for an Odyssey+ is too much for you?

4PBP

Yes.

hard to give a fuck in these dire times 2bh
1% of all the people in my country declared unemployment this week

>HL3 is confirmed
Yeah, just like HL2Ep3 was confirmed by the end of HL2Ep2.

It is literally the EXACT SAME cliffhanger. There is nothing stopping Valve from going completely radio silent for the next thirteen years like with HL2Ep2.

Poorfag.

?????
We are just in the same situation we were before?
What is there to be hype about? My dick is still dry after 15 years

Actually, Ep. 3 was much more "confirmed", since they very explicitly said they were making it.
And it still never happened.

>Campo Santo Nu-life
no thanks
90% of alyx story was shit, only the last bit was good, nobody cares about Russel

I hear it in my head

Imagine shilling for a company that has done basically fuckall in over a decade.

If HL3 is anything like Half Life: Alyx I'm not sure I want it anymore.

>HL3 confirmed
Marc Laidlaw isn't working on the game. It's just not the same anymore.

If HL3 is confirmed why is Eli alive?

I just remember there being some jumps in the plot but EP1 was so overshadowed by EP2 that I don't even remember them.
And I guess you could say HL2 retconned a bunch of stuff from 1

Barely any people from Campo Santo worked on HL:A, most of it was Valve including the original Half-Life team

>Moving forward in time is now time travel
I guess we all are time travelers then.

They retconned the end of HL2 to change it so the vortigaunts saved you and alyx from the g-man

>MUH MARK MAIDMAW!!!

You do realized Erik Wolpaw is working on the story as well?

The magic left a long long time ago.

And yet the story was ruined with time travel bullshit the moment Marc Laidlaw left.

>Ending of HLA was a retcon
if it was a retcon then Eli's death wouldn't have happened at all yet we see exactly the opposite in the ending. Alyx's deal with the Gman could not have happened without Eli dying.

Oh it shows, Alyx feels like a different character now. I think Eli stayed intact because he doesn't get to talk much so he doesn't get a chance to be ruined, he just has to say Baby every now and then.

Yas Forums is practically a Nintendo board now, bruh
