I have no doubt it would be great, Ive heard Alyx is fantastic. Just always that wait for something..and getting it

I do with the would just randomly drop it one day like oblivion remaster but I dont think its ever going to live up to its hype

I think at this point this is what valve will do, no trailer, no hype, just one day steam updates its store page with HL3 and the entire internet explodes

Half-Life 3 HLX Progresses With Optimization and Gameplay Updates

The development of the HLX project speculated to be Half-Life 3 HLX is proceeding in one of Valve's busiest months in years

Where is the above image from?

In terms of HLX, is the traditional FPS dead? Valve only seem to release games (especially HL) that are a revolutionary leap. So 'just' a good/great FPS wouldn't satisfy their MO. I'd be happy with a polished HL: Episode 3 and then a new story with HL 3. The engine still hold up.

Alyx was a leap and is still the game to beat in the VR landscape. Looking forward to anything they may release (if at all).

Think mrk running out of teabags.

Disclaimer: This is just a translation of what Dota 2 analyst/dataminer Degaz said. It’s not confirmed information. (original post was on Telegram, username: degaz_ok)

I read somewhere that the developers didn’t manage to finish the new Dota hero because of Deadlock. That’s close to the truth, but not entirely. Right now, the majority of the Dota 2 and CS2 teams are actually working on Valve’s new shooter. But it’s not Deadlock, it’s a new Half-Life project (codenamed HLX).

Many of the Deadlock developers have also been temporarily moved to help polish this project, which is why there’s been a big delay between updates there too.

Judging by the pace, the main stage of development is already close to completion, so the dev teams will likely start shifting back to their projects soon.

Overall, the situation is very similar to the period of active development on Half-Life: Alyx, when there was a complete lull in other projects. The difference this time is that there seems to be a strong effort to reduce crunch. In the meantime, we just have to be patient and wait.

It is happening!
