The Half-Life 3 thread of closure and memorium AKA what Tyler McVicker just said on YouTube

There was a talk on VR at Digipen, and the technology discussed is believed to be the infamous HLVR title that has been dug in content releases

This is brilliant. You look at it and you just think these are illustrations for a brochure or something, then you scroll, you scroll and...

CERN always amazed me but I never looked into the scale of the actual facilities surrounding the loop. You can have a whole game take place in a loop lol.

Ubisoft could then make a super huge and tediously grindy open world game based in the planned "FCC" (Future Circular Collider) and its surroundings. ?

this rules

FMPONE God damn it, that was one of the most annoying thing I've ever seen. I tried for like 45 minutes straight... To beat that one part. And then realised... I had to go back...

Given the release of the Half-LIfe: Alyx trailer, this thread will be ceremoniously closed in 24 hours. It's now "Party Time"

Hi mom!

But there's no closure until we have HL3... there are lots of loose ends that surely won't get addressed on a game set between HL 1 and 2 (Alyx)

So don’t close until we get a sequel, not a prequel?!? xD

I would say until gordon's story progresses/concludes

I'm hoping HL:A is all they need to get the ball rolling again

I also think that HL:A could be an important step towards a potential HL3. Seems like the developers enjoyed working on the franchise again.

So valve cancels the game awards demo, the first time we get to see the game in action. And instead allows some shaky, blurry ass, cam footage to be released instead of dudes teleporting up a ladder...

I think they’re just bracing us for a delay in March. It’s whatever, a late game is better than a bad game.

I'm just thinking out loud that if they weren't happy with the demo why let the shaky 3rd party footage be the first real glimpse we get at someone playing? I'm not trying to sound like a knob or anything just seemed a strange choice to me. But what do I know

EDIT : I also thought this was the Alyx thread my bad

You’re right, the tested video was so bad and boring and the footage so poorly presented that although my hype levels are high for Alyx I couldn’t watch it one sitting and it took me two days to get through. But maybe they just didn’t have a solid trailer cut in time and didn’t want to disappoint when expectations were really high and the trailer would be beside a lot of other AAA titles. And I still also doubt they make March, so that’s probably part of it.

The announce trailer looked great, then I skimmed through the Tested video thinking it would get better, but it was like watching the video of an early alpha. Makes you think Valve did it again, presenting a completely fake trailer of a game there is not made yet.

I don't plan in watching the Tested video properly, it just riles me up and makes me doubt everything. And anyway I don't have a VR device so I don't need to worry about it for now.

Spoiler Well this didn't age well...
