    Someone makes a fan game:

      actually, valve hire, copyright the IP (steal it) and then fire, then protect the IP to sell for huge $$.

      They didn't steal the IPs, moron.

    • @unematrix
      @unematrix 7 лет назад +26

      in Sony's defense though, copyright is a tricky thing. if they don't sue this guy, these lose all right to copyright. they would loose assets related to the game such as the engine. Blame the obsolete copyright law

      That was made for one man's personal tastes and fantasies on how Half-Life 3 should play. VNN's work would most likely be tailored for general play.

    This community is insane. A dedicated and skilled fan base with the sole intention to bring out more content at a time when Valve has turn their backs on us with their corporate shill and complete lack of communication

    • @dimitar4y
      @dimitar4y 7 лет назад +7

      all valve games are community games, stolen by valve and sold as ip.

    • @zeltzamer4010

      We know it's a card game. We know it's a trading card game. We know we didn't want a trading card game. We're not saying the game is going to be bad, we're saying the game is going to be something we didn't want.

    • @dimitar4y
      @dimitar4y 7 лет назад +2

      ps: 100% of valve products are community made, ip stolen, and sold as dumbed down versions. hl1 made by gabe's friend and valve co-owner. counter-strike made by fans. l4d made by fans. portal made by narbacular drop devs. so on and so forth.

    • @aname3288
      @aname3288 7 лет назад +8

      Im not sure about HL1/Counter strike but im going to assume your wrong since your wrong about L4D and Portal.
      L4D was made by a game studio called turtle rock, they was orginally working on a fairy RPG till they gave up and then got a new idea for a game which is now L4D. During the development of it, Valve caught eye of this and hired the studio/devs to build the game in source engine and to be published as a Valve product.
      For portal your KINDA correct, it was made by narbacular drop devs. however during a showcase at Valves HQ, Gabe was so impressed he stopped it halfway through and hired them on the spot.
      They all then continued to make whats known as Portal.
      So no. Its not stolen, Valve (Or Gaben?) saw games with potential and hired them.

      @coffeetext 7 лет назад +3

      LeathelDumpster
      Very true. Instead of giving the community what they want and were promised, they release new boxes filled with random loot and 'games' you don't want and never asked for.

    Hey Tyler,
    Your recent content and work has been extraordinary. The report on the Artifact game, your research into the TF2 Update as well as receiving a full game.
    I want to thank you a lot of doing your work on such a high level.
    I completed portal 1&2 as well as almost all of Portal 2 Co-Op and would love to play this new part in a stream tomorrow or on the weekend. But you said there is no additional levels - just test champers? Any hidden rooms or some kind of hint of a diffuse storyline?
    This is valve afterall.
    Thanks again I hope you get the support you need- I can't provide you monetary support but hope my comments helps your motivation.

    Absolutely amazing work! All that's missing are those unique achievements (which would have to be done in-game somehow anyway) and... commentary tracks? That second one does confuse me. I have no idea if the commentary tracks in Portal proper are the same ones as in Still Alive or if they did some brand new ones for that version.

    Thanks Tyler! I just finished the main game and the scrapped ending and it was great. Going to play some bonus maps and the GLaDOS voice once tomorrow if I get round to it. Looking forward to whatever mod you've made next. Btw I can't get Half-Life Three-Wave to work but it was been a while since I last tried just saying encase someone knows what to do.

    I loved the flash game! I had no idea it was converted to a map pack. But I don't remember an escape sequence.

    Funny, I just replayed Portal Still Alive on my XBox like a month ago. Really amazing to see it finally got a PC port! :D
    (Guess I got to replay it again lol)

    Portal: The Flash Game was the game that introduced me to Portal 2.
