    Yeah, thats fair, I’m not trying to personally say HL2 is literally perfect, and I don’t think Valve are either…

    But they’re saying that, by the time people really really wanted Half Life 3… they knew they would have to do something so revolutionary, so much better, to top it… that it actually wasn’t possible.

    So, think outside the box, innovate elsewhere, all the other shit they’ve done?

    Conceptually and practically easier than making a sequel that would live up to HL3 expectations.

    Although, there are apparently reports/rumors that they are now actually trying to do HL3.

    But that has been the case for almost two decades.

    … these things, they take time.
