Valve, Gabe, I'm VERY disappointed.
TastyBrainMeats
I will happily wait until 2040 to play Half-Life 3...if they just make it like it should be.
derscur
We need more dota hats, I think.
Cranbananarama
If we don't get a giant grub worm alien with his face and mind, I will be sorely disappointed.

"People you asked if Valve is in gaming business or in money business. Neither. We are in the empire business." - Lord Gaben probably...
OpenMindOpenMouth
Thats another 6 months

Valve doesnt make games anymore. less expensive to just make small cheesy updates to current games to keep people buying cosmetics. :(

I'm probably alone in loving HL, but thinking HL2 was meh. Got to the speedboat section, turned it off and never went back.

You don't have to finish your trilogy if you fire literally all of your best writers.

His post makes me so angry, because it’s so true.....

GRRM posted something recently?
DoYouGuysNotHavePhones
its sad that these guys were one of the most innovative companies but now they just jumped on the bandwagon of what makes the most money
DoYouGuysNotHavePhones
*cough* https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/894659755129552897/-EC4LJTe_400x400.jpg *cough*
DoYouGuysNotHavePhones
you think they would be doing some magical shit with all that money they get from steam but nooooo they put Gordon freeman in final fantasy.
Fengoj
King killer Cronicles.
dirtydanisreal
Getting the fans to come up with a more complex shocking plot that the creators could ever write. Priceless.
WafflesMcGee
Half-Life 3 confirmed
Lv30Wizard
I'm from the future friend! It is indeedly!
DerpyMcDerper
Can someone fill me in on recent valve news?
DoYouGuysNotHavePhones
they showed they only like money now by jumping on the bandwagon of fucking card games. & just to rub it in our face they put Gordon in FF15
SquiggleBerries
Also they stopped giving a shit on what people put on the market
SquiggleBerries
They ruined themselves by giving some bronie fan the ability to create a new HL game, ended up with stolen Assets, stolen maps, etc.
FatAndInflatedFurryPornTurnsMeOn
They even had the source debug leak because it was so shit
DoYouGuysNotHavePhones
and a 25 buck prica tag. higher than EVERY HALF LIFE GAME COMBINED
anubisfike
What is this?
DoYouGuysNotHavePhones
hunt down the freeman. don't google it please.
anubisfike
:(
lebronkeykong
should be a rothfuss joke here somewhere
deathloop
I have been waiting for his third before I started the second. Only pepperidge farms remembers.
MacheteBettie
Ugh. I can't even joke about it anymore. I just grumble and am disgusted

WiqidBritt
at least you know he's working on it, Valve has explicitly said they're NOT working on Half-Life 3
Kvothefefe
glittalogik
+1 for that username
ProfProffesserson
Honestly he will probably end up writing four books. I just wish he would write a new one at least
gutding
There is an awful lot of plot left for just one book
Kvothefefe
https://www.tor.com/2018/03/07/patrick-rothfuss-kingkiller-chronicle-prologue-the-doors-of-stone-book-3/
Astaaroth
Well that was kinda interesting, thanks man!!
Kvothefefe
To do list: steal princesses from sleeping barrow kings, get expelled from the University, talk to Gods. Maybe kill a king???
andergriff
also: involve the spider things from the first book, meet satyr friend, lose magic, obtain the sword "folly"
ProfProffesserson
Going into the fairy world and having sex with her as well as talking to the tree thing comes pretty close to talking to Gods I would say
Kvothefefe
Maybe, but he also specifically mentioned his time with Felurian in his "you may have heard of me" summary, so maybe he meets Tehlu?
ProfProffesserson
The fey is one thing, Tehlu another entirely. Rothfuss seems to favor the more realistic aspect of the mythical so I just don’t see it
FatAndInflatedFurryPornTurnsMeOn
Just a reminder they announced they gonna be making games again
TheFlyingSheep
Ain’t buying no new valve game unless it’s half life
Twinney
Portal 3 pliz and I'm happy
MrDeadsr
Ya cheap card games that depend on pay to win to make money
DoYouGuysNotHavePhones
card games don't deserve to even be called games.
deadlyvenom354
Just make left for dead 3 and have it on all consoles and pc that’s all I want
sykoticflaw
We're never going to get a continuation of this series. Just let it go, man.
everypostepic
Card games my friend, card games.
ParsleySage
Team Fortress: Hatz.
WhatzitTooya
Probably VR games to promote their HTC Vive thing...
VectorCross
Good they can start on finishing the trilogy
OfficialEA
Noted
Ruhig
I kind of hope it's some new, crazy IP. Their other stuff is really good, and feel like the Half Life horse has been beaten to death :/
LordFacepan
Portal vr. Half life vr. Artifact
IwentLookingForWhatTheBiggestIdiotHasToSayAndHereYouAre
I mean yes. but the 1st game theyre making is a card game based on Dota. They *might* reopen for development of more robust games, but I>
IwentLookingForWhatTheBiggestIdiotHasToSayAndHereYouAre
>doubt it.
PD78
Once people stop buying cosmetic upgrades, things will change. Until then...
IwentLookingForWhatTheBiggestIdiotHasToSayAndHereYouAre
so never. it's never going to happen.
danielsan1977
Will it be a continuation of the Half-Life story?
FatAndInflatedFurryPornTurnsMeOn
I wish they would have more people on tf2's dev team and try to revive the game aswell
AppIeJack
I could talk to you for hours about this lol
youcancallmesusanifitmakesyouhappy
Tf2? I miss tfc!
mdzmdz
TFC? I miss QWTF
iostream64
I don't play it much but when I do there's generally some new event. Nowhere near as frequent as Overwatch, but still. I agree, though, with
iostream64
how much [I imagine] they make from cosmetics/weapons, they should have more dedication. https://steamdb.info/graph/ it's still running
iostream64
strong though according to this activity tracking site
iostream64
as of today at 3:11 EST, it's 13th place overall in user activity. I'd imagine it stays close to that
AVeryBadDecision
TF3, please. Source Engine is so old it's barely able to hold new updates for TF2. Source 2 would make it so much easier to develop for.
mdzmdz
QWTF style on Quake Champions would be awesome
Florky
Probably going be new IPs or left 4 dead not half-life.
Mythanris90
Source?
AdmiralCreamy
Here ya go: http://ca.ign.com/articles/2018/03/09/gabe-newell-says-valve-is-going-to-start-shipping-games-again
filthytank
Can’t wait for more card games
AdmiralCreamy
Ya there's no way they're making another single-player game.
HitlersArtCritic
IIRC they're using the steam market to trade cards, and it'll be a mobile release first. So, chance that its a card game that sucks less?

*Gabe* "For years now the gaming community has cried out for us to finish a series" *audience cheers* "that is why we are announcing.... 1/2
digitalist1
*more cheering* "dota 3!"
bumblinbun
But they did Finnish the "trilogy" remember ep 1 and 2 are Half-Life 3 just in parts
TheAdventuresofStealy
No, they were literally even titled Half-Life 2: Episode One and Half-Life 2: Episode Two.
IwentLookingForWhatTheBiggestIdiotHasToSayAndHereYouAre
no they didnt. those were episodes of half-life 2.
tacomortal
This is so incorrect it hurts - Half Life 2 episode 2 specially left the series with huge cliffhangers
caramelballoffur
Valve would have to be fucking insane to do another HL. it'd have so much hype it'll be a disappointment no matter how good they make it
kutison
Rhey shouldn't hype it. It should just show up in the steam store. Every old nerd would lose their goddamn minds. Myself included.
freakdiablo
DNF 2: Electric Bugaloo
HistoricalContext
Really, the only thing I'd be looking for is closure. It could be shit for all I'd care, as long as Valve finished what they started.
supersomatic
Yeah. You say that now.
cannedbat
none of the people who made the original games are still working there, it'll be a sequel by name only
wa27
That's not true at all.
whatspaulplayingtoday
Tell that to 3DRealms. [sidelong glance at Duke Nukem Forever]
WherePoetryComesToDie
...? A good number of the HL2 team at least is still at Valve. The most notable exception is Laidlaw.
supersomatic
You ever heard of a guy called Gabe Newell?
Robvp
All I want is to see an ending to the story
PD78
Google Epistle 3, which is Episode 3's story, just with changed names. Someone even wrote a script that returns proper names into it.
OfficialCaveJohnson
It doesn't mean that the game won't be good just because they're not made by the same team. Take Portal Story : Mel for exemple
hpbraincase
Yes! PS:Mel was amazing!
AWittyUsernameBecauseTheOneIWantedWasTaken
They won't make the third one as they know it will never meet expectations after this long. If i'm wrong, they're doing it for the money.
Eldibs
Meet expectations? Fuck, at this point I don't even expect a game.
Cosmogonic
they are not. simply put, there's been several attempts, none met the goals, teams after teams, think tanks after another.
Yasulee
Valve is litterally swiming in cash, I dont think they need the money, I dont think they would do something for something they have already.
TheEmperorOfMankind40000
They mainly got scared after what happened to mass effect 3. They thought they wouldn't be able to keep the standards that fans want.
Lobuttomize
But half life isn't an RPG with choices????
rylecx
ME 3 was great. Whats your point
Cruxador
Yeah, they got scared in 2007 by something that came out in 2017.
StopLookingAtMyName
ME3's ending was caused by rushing the developers. Don't do that, and it won't turn out so bad.
TheShadowBoxingAssCrack
Same time at the Square Enix: "lets make Final Fantasy Triple X Nebulon-B 12^4-Y=cos Z.
JauneHabanero
You can say that, but FF games aren't connected. They don't have to worry as much about story expectations.
Jak4wontbemade
Uh bioware and ea? This is valve.
ajpimpsalll
WAS valve. And there's a pretty in depth video out there that goes into the lack of monetary incentive for valve to make hl3. Steam = $$$$
