Rumor: Reasons Why We Don’t Hear Much About Half Life 3

quote:
They said the game is somewhat in development, but only by a crew of 10 people. The script, story and game events have been completed. However, Valve management are not interested in releasing the game at all. One reason is because the company already makes a lot of money via Steam.
The other reason is that Valve is afraid of the internet backlash they might receive if Half Life 3 doesn’t end up becoming a good game. It’s being said they are not willing to take such a big risk. They noted the poor reception that Mass Effect 3 garnered from its ending had been a factor to this decision.
They feel the negative backlash will impact them heavily. They feel if Half Life 3 doesn’t live up to expectations, fans might not support the company anymore. The risk is too great to go ahead with it.

this is the dumbest shite ever. diablo 3 was a pile of shite and people still play it and will pay money for new expansions. (myself included)

All of this sounds like complete BS. Weak reasoning to get views.

Half Life 3 could suck and everyone would still buy it.

So the game hasn't actually been made then. They've only done the easy part.

Lol geauxtigers sucks at that game.
And I would buy Half Life 3 if it had a 0% rating on every critic site.
This story smells of bullshite

Yeah, no way it's true

I don't believe the story but it says they are worried about the brand, not the games individual sales.
Posted on 7/25/15 at 12:33 pm to Breesus
Even if it's not the GOAT to end all GOATS, it's going to sell like mad.

it wasn't ever really a pile of shite. it was just too hard at first. it's a beauty of a game now though.
