Aside from just generating tons of goodwill, does anyone have any insight into why Valve would do this? Obviously, I think it's great regardless of the motivation, but are there rumblings of Half Life 3 that I've missed or something?
At the bottom of the page is a crowbar... maybe you should see if it's useful!
Besides the low brow "wen half-lyf-3?" comment, is valve planning on releasing any other games like hf? Anyone in the industry have anything to spill regarding this?
def no insider info on my side but from what I've heard/read they pretty regularly have a team spun up to explore a half life 3 but at this point they're afraid of a duke nukem forever (not that they'd make a shitty game like that) and that even if it's a great game it'd be seen as underwhelming because the community has hyped itself up so much on it over the nearly 20 years.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Half Life 3 already happened and it was called Half Life: Alyx.
Alyx was really good (though I'm a wuss and couldn't finish it) but not a continuation of the cliffhanger that we've been sitting on for 16 years since episode 2.

This, though, is why you don't end things with cliff hangers.
There is an easter egg in the website.
