Oh god ...

Rest in peace.

Holy shit you guys.....

At least we know now.

The mechanic of the ship slipping in and out of existence sounds cool.

So that's how it all ends, huh.

Guess in the end all I feel is relief and a sense of nostalgic longing. Would have been fun. So long and thanks for all the fish, Marc.

Here is the plot synopsis of HL3 if you wanna read it: https://pastebin.com/uYecqiuu

I'd rather this than nothing at all. Ending sounded pretty cool. Fitting end to the Hl2 Arc.

I hope laidlaw is still on good terms with Valve and he's just done this for us.

Hah. Top of the front page on reddit. Love it.

Who's gonna make a mod out of this then?

As I was reading, I was trying to imagine how it would feel as a game. Visually it would be really impressive certainly, but it needs a gameplay hook. All I can think is that maybe there are time-portals that the player can see through but can't safely traverse without being ripped apart, so you have to use the gravity gun to move objects between times and solve puzzles/fight enemies.

I think Laidlaw missed out on a huge emotional hook, which would be Alyx trying to find a way to use the time loops to save Eli. Perhaps discovering that this is impossible is the moment which drives her mad enough to kill Judith.

Rename this thread again, please.
