As most of you know, HL3 is pretty much the most popular “vaporware” game out there. Something always rumored and in development, but never heard again after a certain point.
What I don’t understand is why Gabens refusal to expand on the halted development of this game, it would’ve smashed sales absolutely and be the shining example in the modern gaming scene.
It just doesn’t make sense, you’d think a games firm would be smacking it’s lip ready for another full plate of gamers wallets.
Is it because the hype train is dangerous? Does Gaben prefer steam sales more?

Valve used to make games, now they make money
And that’s why they can afford investing in VR and in games like HL: Alyx. I enjoyed it very, very much.
