Any predictions for Half-Life 3

[DayDay]

- So far, Eli Vance is alive from Alyx undoing his death in Episode Two in exchange for freeing him. Now when Gordon wakes up, Eli is back alive!

- Alyx was snatched away by G-man and placed in stasis for further assignment.

- Eli and Gordon have to work to do now. Eli wants the Borealis to be destroyed at all costs and not wanting a second Seven Hour War. However, Issac believes that they can use the Borealis against the Combine.

- Eli wants to defeat Gman once and for all.

- Gordon is gonna have to get a new HEV Suit due to how damaged it is.

- Gordon goes on the look to find Judith and destroy the Borealis.

- Many Advisors will be encountered.

- New enemies, weapons, locations, and characters will be added.

What are your predictions for Half-Life 3?

I predict that it will be VR or it will never happen (unless the company is sold to cash grabbers).

While i HOPE that's a thing, we all know Valve cannot count to 3! >_<

Nearly all corporations are out there to make money; question is what they sell and if the product is of adequate price and quality, as well as if there are underhanded tactics or manipulation at play.

HL3 damn well better be VR ever since the ending of Alyx has Eli handing me a crowbar, that got me hyped.

I'm very positive that Valve will make Half-Life 3. Since Source 2 is good to go, I'm sure Valve has the perfect chance to make Half-Life 3. It's NOW or never. It's too late to go back.

I think it will be M+KB as well as VR.

We find a Portal gun on the Borealis.

I predict Valve doesn't have what it takes to make real games.

Half Life: Alyx protects Valve from being critically shamed for not being up to standard by using VR as it's gimmick. Alyx repeats everything from the original games and does nothing new.
I'm not impressed and have no expectations of Valve if they're only making VR games.

I don't trust Valve with Half Life and I don't trust Valve as a developer of games. Did you guys forget how terrible the past 9 years have been for Valve games? They're not interested in making core games anymore. That's why you got stupid card games, chess and now VR.

I look at Halo Infinite and it gives me an idea of what Half Life would look like today in a mainstream market. It would become a meme for how generic and uninspiring the series has become.

Some games don't age well, not everyone can be a DOOM Slayer or Mario. I blame Valve for that. They've kept the series idle for too long and have not expanded on the universe. The story is always the same, it tells you something that means nothing and the joke is on you.

They made a franchise we all fell in love with but they've been a crappy developer for almost 10 years now. The past doesn't mean anything If you suck today. Half Life needs a major upgrade DOOM Eternal style.

Make the world bigger, more textures, effects, show off Gordon Freeman the way DOOM did with DOOM Slayer - they were so proud of that character - that's where Valve needs to be. They'll never get there If VR is priority. So I doubt Half Life 3 will ever happen.

Ever since finding out the borealis was from the portal facility I’ve been wanting to get the portal gun in the half life games. Think of the fun to be had with portals and a gravity gun...

Not sure why people keep thinking there will be a HL3. Valve has already confirmed they have no plans for 3, or any other HL game for that matter. Even their plans for the second dedicated VR games have been shelved for the time being.

Source?

I gotta admit, that ending was pretty cool. However, I noticed a pretty crucial plot hole that I'm amazed Valve didn't notice.

G-Man's reason for replacing the legendary Gordon Freeman with Alyx Vance is that Gordon was supposedly hesitant of doing what G-Man asked him to do. And I'm just like, WHAT?

Gordon Freeman has basically done everything G-Man has asked him to do in the series! In the original Half-Life (and I guess, Black Mesa), Gordon destroyed the Nihilanth, which prompted G-Man's employers to take control of Xen. And don't forget, this happened BEFORE G-Man gave him that job offer!

We enter Half-Life 2. While he's never directly told WHAT exactly his mission is, it's pretty obvious he accomplishes his mission goal by destroying Nova Prospekt and the Citadel.

In Episode One, we see G-Man getting blocked from Freeman by a bunch of Vortigaunts, which might be what G-Man was telling Alyx toward the end, but Freeman had no idea they were coming to save him, and there's no way that was his fault.

In Episode Two, G-Man tells Freeman about how the Vortigaunts were holding him back from talking to Gordon, and tells Gordon to take Alyx to White Forest and deliver the message to Eli Vance. And Gordon does exactly what the G-Man tells him to! He even stops the base from getting destroyed by the Combine and helps close the superportal! And then, Gordon blacks out after getting attacked by the Advisors, which again, was not his fault!

Therefore, what the hell is G-Man talking about? Gordon has done everything the G-Man has asked of him, and therefore, him being replaced with Alyx (who is, admittedly, badass in her own right, as this game undoubtedly proves), makes absolutely no sense given G-Man's excuse.

Oh ok give me an example of a real game then.

[AllergicToBrainRot]

Well, since at the end of the game. I'm pretty sure it's confirmed to be in VR. I hope it is with workshop :D

Alyx is 98% positive on steam, highest half life game ever, one of the highest games on the entire Plattform. We do understand that you are sad by not being able to afford the future of gaming, but that comment is just ridiculous
