Off topic, but I know there are Half-Life, Portal, and L4D fans here. The chances that any of these are going to reach a 3rd game just dropped dramatically. The last of Valve’s four head writers just departed the company. https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2017/06/07/valve-loses-its-fourth-writer-in-two-years-as-jay-pinkerton-leaves-the-company/
I have been wishing for a finale to the Half-Life series for too long now. I have already stopped buying on Steam as it matters to me where my money goes. For a company like Valve to ignore it’s original fan base is unsettling to me. I know they are too busy hosting DOTA tourneys and selling digital hats, but I still held out hope they wouldn’t forget their roots and commitments. That is gone now. Definitely a sad day in my book and more reason for me to support companies like CDPROJEKT that still value providing a story driven experience even with the success of GOG as apart of their business.
