When sequel? It has been almost....

[karmazyn1]

.....4 years. Thats how long it took to develop Asgard Wrath sequel, a 120 hour long game. Surely Alyx 2 is ready and why there was no season pass.

What an asinine thing to say.

Valve went out of their way to make the Index standards compatible and open. It's Meta that tries hard to create their walled garden.

This is either a comment from pure ignorance, entitlement or lazy trolling.

You can call it whatever you want

Honestly this doesn't sound like something Valve would do. I'm 100% certain that if they release a new VR game in the next few years, they will make sure it works well enough with all common VR headsets. I mean just look at how they put development work into Steam Link for helping Quest 3 users play Steam games on their Quest 3 devices.

Shouldn't surprise you considering he made some other thread celebrating the VR-removing mod for Half-Life: Alyx. The guy is probably closed-minded toward VR, as well as angry and bitter about having to buy a VR headset to properly enjoy HL:A.

What will we get next from him? Perhaps a comment something along the lines of: "VR games are bad, the only VR game worth playing is Half-Life: Alyx, and it doesn't justify buying a VR headset cuz there aren't any other of muh favorite TriPPle AY flat-game franchises I buy every year available as VR games, but if there were more of those franchises made into VR games, I'll make angry posts on the game forums complaining about it!"

Hello Mr "Closed Minded". I see you love to use that formulation frequently. I am neither bitter nor angry. May I ask... Are you?

I'm definitely not worried about Alyx 2 being exclusive to certain headsets. What I am worried about is Valve might cave in to these people with the closed-minded boomer attitude toward VR and make the future games for flat players, then us enlightened VR players will have to go to the Metaverse for our VR fix.

So if they don't want Steam games like HL:A to work on other headsets other than whatever their newest headset is, why did Valve just create Steam Link to make their games run well on Meta/Oculus hardware? And, for that matter, why did Half-Life: Alyx work so well on Meta/Oculus brand VR headsets in the past, even though they are a company hostile to Valve?

LOL you just hate Valve because their newest Half-Life game requires a VR headset and you don't want to go buy a Quest 2 so you can properly enjoy the game. Bitter, angry, and lashing out at one of the most consumer-friendly and greatest game developing companies in the world.

You seem to have a case of "sour grapes" (I can't have the grapes, therefore I'll try and find ways to rationalize why I don't actually want them.")

Ah so I'm right. Thought so. Off you and your odd vendetta against Valve toddle to the block list.

I certainly hope for Half Life Alyx 2 in VR soon!

[V I D A L]

To be fair, Alyx did look like Valve had the intention to actively bring the franchise back. HL Alyx basically confirmed HL3... Made me think Valve had a plan, which is why they went to notch the ending of HL2 Episode 2 to set up what they had coming. I'm surprised that 5 years later the franchise is dead again.

Gaben if you're reading this release Half Life 3 in VR. Just do it. We know you want to. I want you to.

Gabe doesn't even work on video games at all at this point. Alyx was made by an entirely different team and Gabe had no participation on it's writing or development. He just check it out and sign off on it.
