Poor Gabe Newell has his reputation ruined because Valve still hadn’t released Half Life 3 when all he said was that they plan on eventually making it and that they have ideas on where they want to go. Well, now we have Half Life 1.5, which I’ve heard confirms there will be an actual Half Life 3. My dad likes the Half Life games although I’ve never played them. I just know the memes about Gaben not being able to comprehend the number 3.I agree, to a point. If the game has multiple bugs, it needs to be fixed. It has to be playable. But if a storyline was pitched way back when and that is what they went with, I see no point in starting over. Not everyone is going to like every story, every time, and scrapping the storyline pretty much means scrapping the entire game and starting over.
The release date has been pushed back a few times already. I try to avoid knowing too much about anything, tv, movies, books, games...because I prefer to experience it myself but I guess I assumed the delays were due to gameplay being buggy rather than the storyline.

Oh celebrity parody accounts, what would we do without you.
