Is valve making games again?
I saw half-like alex release and just recently I saw a music video online by the chalkeaters:

Does this mean valve has decided to start making games full time again? I for one would LOVE a Portal 3... :3

why would they? making ♥♥♥♥ load of money with dota 2 and cs go

Because they actually enjoy making games and the creative process.
And since they're in a position where they need only prioduce games they want as opposed to produce games because management needs to beef up the 3rd quarter earnings for X year. means that the games are more apt to be the product of genuine passion and creative interest. WHich is the best case scenario.
Valve is just unexpectable. They do nothing.. nothing.. and suddenly something happens. Who knows. :lunar2019grinningpig:

It's not just about the puzzles, the story is also really good. Like, I'd love to know the backstory being chell or hell more backstory on who glados was before she became an AI in a machine. Hell,even though she said she deleted that part of herself at the end of portal 2...I seriously doubt she did. The data equivalent to repressing it, possibly, but deleted? No way and I wanna see more on that story.

Did we really need to know that is how he got his name? or where he got the dice that are in the falcon?
In the end, it's best to keep some things unknown, make up your own story if you like because in the end, it really does not matter, and if do have it, it may make it worst

I don't think we so much need Portal 3, or know the back story, not outside what fans made up that is pretty good
What i hate about that is that they basically tried to add significance to everything he has. WHich makes them actually a bit less realistic. I mean if you have fuzzy dice in your car...does it have a deep backstory, or did you just think it was funny/cool 3 years ago and youu never bothered to remove them when they stopped being that?

This is why more can diminish while less.. less gives you room to think, and gives the audience room to put together the pieces.

All the more reason then to appreciate the current model.
Stories have to END at somepoint, otherwise they lose all meaning.
Even cliffhanger endings are sometimes best left as cliff-hangers. See 'The Italian Job'.

Like, I'd love to know the backstory being chell or hell more backstory on who glados was before she became an AI in a machine.
CHell was just a random emplloyee. No backstory needed. And detaills as to Glados priopr to AI are already in the games, as much as needed to construct an idea.

Hell,even though she said she deleted that part of herself at the end of portal 2...I seriously doubt she did.
And there we go. You seem to want confirmation of your headcanon rather than an actual continuation.

The data equivalent to repressing it, possibly, but deleted?
Why not?
She has the ability to do so. Our fleshy brains delete stuff all the time (we juust don't have much control over the process). We only resort to repression because we can't actually delete stuff.

No way and I wanna see more on that story.
And thusly you show why they won't continue the stories. Because no matter what they choose some group of people like yourself are going to cry and rage because it goes against what you want to believe as canon.

Your entire post was a bunch of entitled gibberish I'd expect from a 10yr. Grow the ♥♥♥♥ up. Just because you don't want to see another sequel to the game doesn't mean no one else does and it DOES NOT MEAN everyone who does is a "crybaby who wants their head cannon confirmed" like you stupidly seem to think.

I don't know what your grudge is against portal but if the puzzles were too hard for you to figure out, no need to take it out on the community who wants to see more story and content from the series.

Not everyone. But a lot are. And it seems I may have struck close to centre with my guesses there. EVerything you've said basically points to you already having an idea of what you WANT the story to be. And when the story goes in a way that does not follow what you want it to be,, you will be sad/angry.

What grudge do I display against Portal. The fact that i understand what the story was and why it really makes no sense to continue it. Chells was a generic protagonist. No real back story. That was the pouint. A blank slate for gamers to project onto. Same for Gordon Freeman really.

YOu don't want more story. You don't want the story the creators want to tell, you want them to tell you the story you've aklready decided you want to hear. You don't want more content, because there's already tonnes of content made by the community.

You want HL3 to have HL3 not to actually play HL3. And Valve knows this, Valve which is why they've turned their attention down more interesting paths.

lmao real mature, based on the fact you copied and pasted my previous statement to you made a small edit to you and threw it back in my face means one thing: My assumptions about your age were a little more than accurate.

Please leave the forums dedicated to mature adults discussing semi-serious to serious manners regarding valve and such. We don't need a kid's 2 cents worth butting in because they have nothing better to do than to argue over something they don't understand.

PS: I find it downright hilarious that you assume I have this "head cannon" that I'm somehow expecting valve to read my mind and retell this supposed story I have in my head. lmao grow up, please.

PSS: Good god, learn to bbc code, I've had to edit this 5 times now with how broken your quotes are and how they conflict with the forum's quoting system

Like you never made a quatation error before. Though do go on about my penmanship...

Mmm-Hmm so you want to actually address the points or are you you just going to bluster til the heat death of the universe?

PS: I find it downright hilarious that you assume I have this "head cannon" that I'm somehow expecting valve to read my mind and retell this supposed story I have in my head. lmao grow up, please.
That you demand and think there should be a continuation of the stories already says that you can't accept that the creators have chosenn to end the stories where they did. So you already have some head-canon that says there's more story to be told.

Back to my penmanship. I guess thats the only thing you can actually argue against.
@Start_Running
Have to say I disagree with you on that one
First of all, making an assumption on what a user here wants or does not want like that, and confirming it with a bias is not the way to go, mate
Even more his here, and can speak for themself and what they want

besides that, I will say I honestly will like a Portal 3, maybe with some new mechanics and some more story, but I still don't think Valve will do it, because for them I think the story and all is done, at least considering the ending of Portal 2 that felt somewhat like that (Toss you out)

I don't think it so much that users except something from Portal 3, as much as most likely the creative team just felt they are done with it, at least till something new comes

But honestly mate, please re-read your own posts and there response there, I think you may be applying more then exists on the post, and in a way that is really off base

Fair enough. But I am still allowed to make inferrences when incongruences occur.

TYhe problem there is the mechanics have pretty much been played out. Poklished, and refined. I think they pretty much threw every puzzle they could at us with the portal mechanics.

When someone comes up with a new interesting First_person puzzle mechanic, chances are we'll see Valve do a game around that. Maybe Gravity or time manipulation. But that will be a different story, and a different franchaise more than likely so not Portal 3.

HL: Alyx was basically valave fooling around with VR and we may actually see more along that line... Or maybe similar side stories that focus on different styles of Gameplay. I could certainly imagine a Thief style stealth game within the HL Setting. I could also imagine a bunker management sim. But me thinks none of these would quiet the memeing mob as it were.

Valve has already released 2 new games, but strangely those aren't enough or don't count.
Why do you people say alex instead of Alyx?. A lot of time i see people saying that over & over again.
They have stated long time ago that they are making games.

I'm sorry, wut? Please tell me in what exact words, that I **DEMANDED** a sequel? Do I want one to happen really badly? Of course! Do I expect valve to drop everything and make one because I WANT A SEQUEL TO HAPPEN? Of fuciking course not!

The hell do you get off, making assumptions, claiming I'm being immature, all because I want a sequel to a game that you clearly don't like.(Don't even freaking deny it any longer, its BLUNTLY OBVIOUS by now based on your opinions of the game in your previous posts)

You lot got your half-life 3, it was just called half-Life Alyx. I'm SO SORRY for hoping we'd finally get a sequel to a game people like me loved to play, enjoyed the characters, and the story from.

Actually no, I'm NOT SORRY because I have the right to wish and hope for a sequel! Are we going to get one? Unlikely, which sucks like hell since as I said before, you lot got your half-life 3 and yet those of us wishing and hoping this was a sign that Portal 3 was around the corner have to keep on wishing and hoping. :/

So as I said before KID, leave the forums and please go play fortnight or minecraft or whatever you kids are into these days.
Didn't Gabe say that they're working on some games?

He isn't a kid, though. Bit odd to accuse someone of being a kid just because you disagree with him.

Disagree? I haven't disagreed with SHEET! He's been the one from post one attacking me for supposedly "demanding" a sequel! Quit trying to play middle man because you are failing horribly at it since you clearly haven't been reading the posts carefully or you would have realized I've been on the defensive from my first reply to this dude who has done nothing but make baseless accusations of me and my motives for this thread.
