Nice article, CB. :thumbsup: Who'd a thunk a developer's life could be so open? Wonder if they still have crunch time in Valve time.
Half-Life 2: Episode 3 won't be released due to Valve's socialist development process.
This sounds more anarchical than it does socialist, no? Socialism is where the government does dictate something and everybody benefits. This sounds more like "everybody do what you want."
Regardless, it makes me incredibly sad that HL2:Ep3 may never come. As the years tick by, it only makes it less and less likely to happen, given that new hires (younger folks) won't have the same strong feelings about it that many of us do. On the other hand, maybe they will.
I wish Gabe'd just lay down the law once to get it done, though.
Pretty please??
Any company that lets its employees make all the decisions is screwed. Come on, nobody believes this. Its all spin for... The Half Life episodic content did not sell as well as planed so we are not making another episode.
But even I am starting to believe that we will never see a proper return to HL2. We've been waiting too long with too little information. The game clearly is a lower priority to the studio at this point. Valve should be making noise about it, getting people excited, but they simply aren't bothering. They have Steam, TF2, L4D.... all these properties and platforms that are exploding right now making huge bank. Valve is still a small company, and they've clearly shifted their focus to these other projects. It makes sense from a business standpoint, and Gabe is a shrewd businessman.
