thats a good question, when did the 2nd episode come out? ne1 know off the top of their head coz i just cbf looking it up atm.
You know how much the do with 100 people in that office? Apparently not, otherwise you would laugh at the idea someone should be frustrated. There is plenty other Valve products with the same quality that you can go play with. look at Valve's track record, amazing games every few years, I would surely give another 5 years to EP 3 if it meant that Valve gave it the polish they give to everything else they spend time on.Indecizion said:
I know, im a huge valve fanboy, i like most of their stuff. but i mean seriously L4D2 is of less importance than HL2 EP3, theyd only JUST released a patch for a new camp a few months before the 2nd one came out. thats kinda time wasted why not just wait till the 2nd one comes out and put those resources into HL2 EP3, i get that theyre small, but still this should be a priority given how loved it is and how much of a cliffhanger they ended the 2nd ep on, not really fair to the fans to just leave us hanging like this.whaleswiththumbs said:

It's been over 3 years now and we havn't got so much as a trailer? ValVe, there is no excuse for taking that long for a game that will probably only last 5 fucking hours!
I hope to god this thing is longer, like 15 hours longer. It would explain what the hell ValVe has been doing, at least a bit.

Totally agree with you, if you reed "raising the bar" (art book telling the process from before HL1 all the way to HL2, including things like counter strike, day of defeat, etc) you would get a better idea of the mind set valve was in on before releasing HL2 being that HL1 blew so many´s peoples minds back in the day...Internet Kraken said:
Imagine having to give the franchise a conclusion (they said they were going to, ¿didn't they?), the climax and the conclusion of the story has to be enough NOT to having us wanting for more.
Maybe they wanna take the time to make it wright. It´s kinda like starcraft 2, except valve dont´t pretend it's ok just because they release a couple of videos...
Yeah... HL has a little more credibility than Duke Nukem.Internet Kraken said:
I believe Valve said that Episode 3 will be the conclusion to the Half-Life 2 saga, but not the end of the entire Half-Life franchise.MasterSplinter said:
Waiting for Starcraft 2 is a lot harder for me than Episode 3 simply becuase I've seen the game play videos. Makes me want the game much more, which is why I'm glad Valve hasn't been showing videos of Episode 3.
I imagine it will be long than the other episodes as they have to create a satisfying conclusion to the Half-Life 2 saga. Plus they have some really high expectations to meet.SomeBritishDude said:
Fair enough, they have the engine, so the comparison was not very apt, but the point about their reputation still stands. Want a learning experience? Watch their commentary on Episodes 1 and 2, see how much thought they put into things we don't even consciously think about. They probably don't have to agonize over every little detail like that, but it just feels right somehow.D-Cypher said:
This is also true, the level design is incredible even without the commentary, and when you listen to it, you notice all these other things most people wouldn't notice. But the other point is also valid, this is their flagship title and most of the tech and story to make it are already there.orannis62 said:
