Before the whole countdown thing a lot of people were wondering why HL was so quiet this year but kept hoping the next update would probably be huge. It seems the update in December brought more changes than the one next month.
Id say your actually in the minority.
I agree with OP though, sandbox is what gained this game its community, and the updates for sandbox are 5 months apart now while 75% of the team works on a storymode which nobody knows anything about, and many more care even less for at this stage.
Storymode has become code for delays and more delays.
Yeah, it's a good point that perhaps they're bound and determined to have a perfect story mode to the detriment what what people really want.
Excellent reading comprehension.
More like, you go to the restaurant and order what you had the last time, but they make you wait 4 months until they get it right, then make you wait 4 months more just to make it absolutely perfect.
But throwing out story mode altogether and just making a bigger sandbox isn't adapting to the success of sandbox. It's abandoning their core vision. What they set out to do.
I know that huge numbers of players want story mode, it's almost become an anthem, despite knowing how short it will be. I'd like it too, but I'm not going to worry over a 6 hour side quest that it will end up being.
They have created a game that can be played for hour upon hour and if it were me, I'd cut my losses and run with sandbox unless it was actually illegal!
