Hey.
I came here from b.net after a few Floods invited me. None of them post on either b.net nor here anymore, which is sad. I was still active on b.net until for some bizarre reason, b.net admins locked out people who have not played Destiny. Even if you wanted to post on the offtopic section. After that, I fully moved here and have not returned to b.net since.
Please come play Halo with me.
We know its a prequel starring Alyx.
Anyone excited?

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.
ive lived long enough to see valve acknowledge half life again

and i have VR in the house

Lads. Its the first canonical Half-Life trailer we got in the past decade.

And its coming out at the same time as Doom Eternal.

Oh dear.

Oh come on, like it wasn't already obvious the next Half Life was gonna be in VR as soon as Valve announced they had their own VR system. The only reason it took so long for Half Life 3 was because they didn't want to make just a game, they wanted to make the game in the next step of gaming. Half life 1 was whatever for its time, half life 2 had the best physics, and Half life alyx or whatever is in VR

This is not HL3, no. Its uh... HL2 prequel. So not exactly an expansion either or a spin-off.

Imagine caring an incredible amount for the franchise waiting a decade for Half-Life 3 and then when they finally announce they’re doing a game it’s not HL3 but instead a fucking VR prequel.

The first time I played a Half Life game was on the Orange Box so I’m not too bothered about it but in my opinion, that’s almost as bad as the “you guys don’t have phones?” motherfucker at Blizzcon.

Fanbois are probably just happy to lap up whatever Gaben shits out tbh

Interesting that you see it that way. I think releasing a mainline franchise game on a phone is a sign of your franchise degradation.  VR is the true next step and if Valve doesn't mess up, this game could be what makes people jump on it maybe even force Sony and MS to seriously look into full VR support.

I view any attempt for developers to switch the platform of their franchise completely with a lot of contempt and spite as it’s forcing anyone who wants to enjoy the newest instalment to buy the system the game is now on. It’s not as bad as the Diablo Immortal fiasco because Blizzard basically laughed at their hardcore PC player base, Valve hasn’t done anything like that. I understand VR needs more support and investment but right now it’s extremely primitive and using a game which everyone’s been waiting over a decade for is not a smart move in my opinion.

Aaand now that its out - can you imagine playing Alyx on non-VR? Its like masturbating with your own thighs.
