Correction 3:03: The hacker was offered a job to coerce him into getting arrested, before he could even catch his flight he was arrested. It was later discovered that he was not the one to leak the game (He was the one who sourced the code into a playable version)
If you play Half Life Alyx, you will see what happens after. Alyx is literally a whole game about a story that connects to the end of Half Life 2: Episode 2. Nobody is talking about this, I do not understand. I cried when I finished the game! 14 years of waiting, provided for in Alyx.
Not really the best VR singleplayer vr game ever made. It has a lot of detail, yes, but it feels dumbed down. Movement is slow, areas are very detailed, but also claustrophobically small, no 2 handed weapons, no melee. The dialogue and loot gives you a reason to slow down, but when I get impatient I can just charge through without any issue. It just didn't impress me as much as other VR games and I don't feel the desire to play it again like half life 1 and 2.
Fun fact: After you finish Half Life: Alyx, you get about 2 minutes of gameplay taking place in Half Life 3. Alyx is not merely a game taking place between 1 and 2, it is a whole story that connects and explains the ending of Half Life 2: Episode 2. It will make you cry.
3:03 the hacker wasn’t actually the one who distributed the game, but rather the person who helped him compile the source code into a playable game. The hacker didn’t intend for the beta to leak.
Gaben once said they won't make Half-Life 3 or Episode 3 just because at this point the expectations are too big and even if HL3 would be a good game in general, people will be disappointed.
I'm sorry, but Alyx was most definitely a full on entry in the HL series. At the very least, it served to be a teaser for HL3, wrapped up in a complete 10 hour long game. And at this point, the excuse that VR is too expensive is a non-issue. Even a second hand Quest 2 could be bought for the price of two AAA games, and then you get access to everything that offers.
@@ThereAreErrors seems like the minimum system requirements is a Core i5-7500 / Ryzen 5 1600, 12GB RAM and a GTX1060 / RX580. So basically a gaming PC from about 5 years ago. So no, you really don't need an expensive computer.
nothing is happening with hl3, I have been heavily invested with halflife, valve and the old days of counterstrike 1.5/1.6, since the early 2000s and now I'm over it. valve is more interested in selling hats than finishing what they start. that's where the money is now. there's just some things more important in life than waiting for companies to stop sucking and get back to what they were liked for. which I suspect is a thing that will never happen, hence my moving on.
@@KyllingThyme it resolves the hole they wrote themselves into by killing Eli at the end of episode 2. And it doesn’t take away the fact that it was a new masterclass half life game even if it doesn’t do much for the story.
Looks like it could be happening now. It’s possible it could be another spinoff, but we know it’s not online pvp, it’s not VR, and the main character wears an HEV suit so…
Gabe is on record saying that Half-Life is less an gaming series and more a platform for introducing new tech. That's its lifeblood. Half life was made to showcase the unrestricted cutscenes which were totally novel at the time, as well as the adaptable world with deep meta info. Most people have no idea enemies have a sense of smell. Half life 2 was made to showcase the physics and advanced character animator. Alyx was made to showcase VR. When they have a new tech to show, we will get another Half life.
Ya got the story about the hacker wrong. He was german and got arrested by the german police at the airport. And got off pretty easy. He also wasn't the one who leaked it, he only wanted to see the game, but his friend leaked it.
Half-Life 3 won't be a reality, until the average person owns a VR Headset. Each Half-Life game signifies a leap in technology, and gaming as a whole. We've hit a wall, the next step is VR.
@@KyllingThyme Another pancaker who didnt play HLA. I'm sorry, its not the 1990s anymore and VR knocks the shit out of pancake FP gaming. Also, HL2 VR literally disproves this "HL3 cant be VR" theory, the port is SEAMLESS and plays like a native VR title, only 100% better than pancake HL2. All valve has to do is make a hybrid of HLA and HL2VR, literally a no-brainer. the pancakers will still be able to play on their tiny little squares and press 'R' to reload like that video of old people in a casino.
@naturesquad9174 A hybrid VR/Flat game would be perfect. But I really want them to push Source 2's graphics. The VR could use lower settings to run fine.
there have been lots of leaks from a new entry codenamed HLX, we dont know exactly what it is yet but theres speculation about it being a non-vr game where you play as a hev suit wearing character.
We’ve been waiting for Half-Life 3 for what feels like forever. The first two games are timeless classics, and with Boosteroid, I got to relive them. Now, all that’s left is the hope that the third part will eventually arrive.
3:45 not sure if you know this but portal ended at 2. Like the main series is done, the reason why we outcry for HL3 is because well, it's unfinished, while portal's finished.
Is not that they are going to give a bad end, don't expect an Avengers Endgame or some sort of maladaptive daydreaming you had with Hl3, they just have to end that story cuz people have literally died without seeing the end, but well they are not obligated
The reason why we will never see a HL3 is because not making a HL3 is worth more to Valve now than actually making it. Also i think that because it missed the 7th and 8th generation window for release, which is considered by many to be the two best generations for video games as a whole, i think they probably decided to generally not risk it.
I don't know if Valve is working on exactly "HL3", but there's something happening in there called "HL:X" that is on the radars of leakers and dataminers in the Valve community.
HL:Alyx surpassed my expectations for what Half Life 3 *could* be by several thousand lightyears, gotta be honest. Easily the best installment in the franchise.
By this point I think that the only way to make Valve return to its older series is if all their new ideas failed. All their new games, software, handheld consoles, everything just fails, make them go red. And then they will finally think, well if every newer idea we had failed, let’s stuck to our older ideas, let’s appeal to nostalgia. And then they will finally release the third entry of each game. Starting with Half-Life.
I have a fun little theory that could be related. With the continued philopshy of Half Life games being next a step in gaming tech. You can sort of piece it together with the release of the Valve Index and the Steam Deck. with the Index, they essentially set the bar of how a VR experience could be. Then theres the question of why Valve released the Steam Deck. They are very late to the portable Gaming devices market, and mostly being beaten by regular cellphones. Theres been rumors about valve making a new headset, an Index 2 perhaps. I believe that the Steam deck is the Catalyst and test bed for the Index 2, which will be a standalone VR device similar to the Meta Quest 3, but is capable of running PCVR games. I believe the Index 2 will also feature Augmented Reality functions, because we have things like the Apple Vision and Meta Quest 3's Colored passthrough. I believe that the Index 2 and AR will be a driver for the next Half Life game to be developed.
The valve devs said it best. They got burnt out on developing half life games. They did it for over a decade. Got burnt out and worried, and kept moving forward. They always look back though. Or we wouldnt gave gotten such gems afterwards.
Hey there friend! Looks like you're just starting out, so I wanted to say the following: Your visual editing is really good. You have a nice clean aesthetic, and you're doing the gamer talking head thing really well! I think you could stand to work on your audio. It's a little all over the place. If you're using a script, you should edit it to be a little more direct and clean. Your thoughts have structure, but would really benefit from some trimming. Hope this is helpful! Best of luck, I hope you find the algorithm attention you deserve!
The hacker issue happened differently. Gabe invited him, he accepted. But before he went to USA, German authorities arrested him, I think at the airport. If he went to USA, his punishment would be way more severe. Another thing - while Half Life Alyx does take place between 1 and 2, it is ultimately a game about HL2: Episode 3. I do not understand why people are not talking about the 2 minutes of Half Life 3 that you get to play in VR at the end of Half Life Alyx. For me it was the most emotional event in any game ever.
It's simple, Steam makes a lot of money and Valve is mainly interested in software and hardware technology development rather than game development. Most of their games are a good showcase of their software technology and the games just so happened to be great. Alyx was also a kind of VR tech demo and they are now mostly leaning into Steam Deck's development nowadays. If they have something good or unique to offer in a game, they will make it but it seems like that's not the case for now at least.
valve is making a new half life game codenamed "hlx" which we've been getting a lot of datamined strings from for over the past 4 years, not sure if itll be hl3 but atleast we're getting another half life game! this is actually exactly how we found out about half life alyx being a thing, 4 years before it released
If we get another Half life, its gotta have some sort of conclusion already, we have been waiting on a ending to these games for so many years, and while Alyx was a nice game to chew on until its sequel's release, it left more questions than answers, and changed it from Gordon being the one trapped by Gman, to Alyx being trapped, why? We don't know other then the fact she seemingly has more value to moving forward Gmans plans dedicated to his employers, then Gordon now, whatever does happen I just hope the game can get a much needed conclusion in our lifetimes
I think any attempt to make a Half Life 3 would be crushed by the huge expectations player project onto it. It would have to be a GTA6 scale project to please them.
Alyx is so epic that i dont see myself wanting to play anything HL next that is not in VR.... VR is epic for HL world..... much better traditional monitor 3d.
I remember seeing somewhere that HL was about pushing technological boundaries - HL1 for scripting and storytelling, then HL2 with physics and interactions. But Unreal Engine have kind of absolutely smashed past Valve in an engine technology sense. So what could an HL3 look like nowadays? Could we see the world’s first game with an infinite number of possible endings by using Procedural Generation with narrative, AI and scripting created by generative AI? Mayhaps…?
@@mattyteerifles2863 I’m talking about a custom model trained by them rather than anything off the shelf hahaha dw, I’m definitely not a fan of AI… but implemented well, could be interesting.
@matthartstonge Trained by them with what? Their own games? Last I checked they don't have very many, at least not enough to train a model. Valve cares enough about their games to actually write good stories. And they know the difference between innovation and a gimmick. If they want multiple endings they'll write it that way themselves. As in humans will write it into the game. That is if they ever get around to making a third installment of anything
@@mattyteerifles2863 totally wrong LMAO, one of hl3's first attempts was datamined which was all about procedural and ai generation, being done all the way back in 2013-2014. i think some of it is even stated in the final hours of half life alyx
It's not a flat hierarchy at valve. There's managers and Nepotism over there like any company which there has to be. The Flatland thing is a gimmick just to make Valve sound like it doesn't operate like a corporation when it does. I don't work there of course but I'm guessing there's one of two reasons nobody at Valve is working on HL3. One it's a large and demanding project that nobody wants to pursue because it means putting in longer hours rather than just coasting on easy things like Steam updates and software apps. There's probably a lot of people that have been at steam a long time who really just want an easy day at the office. The second possible reason is the managers and project leaders at valve of which do exist are simply not presenting this project to the employees at all which I think is the real reason. HL Alyx was a cool game but let's be honest. It was a cynical attempt at launching and trying to mainstream their VR system. It hadn't nothing to do with caring about the Half Life franchise. Every decision Valve now makes is a money decision which is sad because they're literally a too big to fail company at this point. They have never been in a stronger position to take risks and they wont.
"Valve cares about the quality of their games" Me: *looks at the state of their latest game CS2, The whole kurfuffle with TF2 and how they didn't give a rats behind about Artifact* Yeah i think they've given up on their games lol
U got the hacker Story completely wrong. He didn't publish it. He did it for Himself but got also hacked 😂. And he tried to get set things straight with valve and he tried to get a job there. But sadly gabe didn't belive him and set a meeting with him and the fbi. But he didn't came to the US. He was arrested in germany at home and got free 🎉
i think valve is working on half life 3,they are just not saying anything so its community won't rage and there won't be any leaks,valve is taking their time,they want carefully to think in which way will their game go,the lore, new gameplay never seen before and many more,so i don't blame them for being so slow,because at the end it will be worth it,valve doesn't want their game to endup like cyberpunk77,that game was meant to be far better and larger,but sadly there were leaks and fans were raging for it to be released,it got released,nobody liked it,because of those selfish people who think game can be made within 1 day,yes it can,with a lot bugs,lags and many more,which most game developers try to avoid that by taking their time.
honestly we should all stop hoping. its never gonna come because valve is now only piggybacking off other peoples games money. so just give up. the only "have life 3's" we are gonna get is from mod makers.
@@bagdaduk the problem is after the release of half life alyx they were wondering what to do next. but they decided will continue but i think they take a while
Too bad the next release ain't gonna be HL3, but another side story/spin-off that only exists to sell gimmick tech and does nothing to advance the story lmao.

He was arrested in germany at home and got free 🎉
i think valve is working on half life 3,they are just not saying anything so its community won't rage and there won't be any leaks,valve is taking their time,they want carefully to think in which way will their game go,the lore, new gameplay never seen before and many more,so i don't blame them for being so slow,because at the end it will be worth it,valve doesn't want their game to endup like cyberpunk77,that game was meant to be far better and larger,but sadly there were leaks and fans were raging for it to be released,it got released,nobody liked it,because of those selfish people who think game can be made within 1 day,yes it can,with a lot bugs,lags and many more,which most game developers try to avoid that by taking their time.
honestly we should all stop hoping. its never gonna come because valve is now only piggybacking off other peoples games money. so just give up. the only "have life 3's" we are gonna get is from mod makers.
Half life 1 + half life 2 = -half life 3-
Half life 1 + half life 2 = half life alyx
Thanks VALVe Lol
i guess half-life fans now live with half a life without hl3.
technically we got project borealis i hope we getting it very soon
Borealis is dead... sorry
@@bagdaduk its not dead its in development they mention that they still working on the game
@@MIZOMIZO-jn1dt I've not seen an update in ages,. Years even
@@bagdaduk the problem is after the release of half life alyx they were wondering what to do next. but they decided will continue but i think they take a while
@@MIZOMIZO-jn1dt "I hope we're getting it very soon"
*laughs in Half Life modder*
portal is finished.
Isn't it obvious? Valve doesn't know how to count to 3!!
They offered a job at valve but was a lie, I remember fbi agents actually waiting on his arrival flight landing.
WERE BACK
Well there is a recent new half life game leak
It is far closer than you think....
🤞🤞
Too bad the next release ain't gonna be HL3, but another side story/spin-off that only exists to sell gimmick tech and does nothing to advance the story lmao.
@@KyllingThyme This is the same stuff people said about HL2 when it released lmao Also gimmicks are cool. Also HL:A absolutely FUCKS , your loss.
The german hacker never arrived cause the german police got him first
did you escape prison?
Maybe with source 3 engine
Maybe
,!JOKE!,
i would sacrifise my little brother to play 10 minutes of hl3
Half life 3 is almost done in 30##
