HOLY SHIT VALVE ANNOUNCED HALF LIFE 3!!!!!!!
>>726273436Posting in sticky!
what does anyone care anymore?
I guess they are an hero shooter now
>>726273436This is fake
Ngl this is the first time I fell for a fake sticky and my heart skipped a beat
>>726273560no its real see the sticky icon
>>726273436Congrats, OP.
>>726273436But how can valve make half life 3 if there's only 2 of them?
>>726273623well you see when two half lifes love each other very much......
>>726273436I’d fall for it.Unironically they should wait for April 1st 2026 to just shadow drop it.
>>726273436The Boy Who Cried Wolf>>726273568I think HL3 is close anyway, it's just a matter of time. They need a game to sell their console
The jannies stickied all over me!
>>726273679...y..yeah?
at least put some effort into it and not make obvious slop
POST CELEBRATION SONGS FOR (you) MAKING IT TO SEE HALF LIFE 3https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owk9KNH0Qdg
>>726273436Who other than millennials still give a shit about this franchise? Most Zoomies didn't play HL1&2
It's gonna happen.
>>726273506I just wanna see it happen. Half Life 1 and 2 are good games, mostly to just fuck around in for the latter but the actual GAMES were good, too. Didn’t save my life or anything, I’d rather play L4D2 and TF2 for the rest of my life than any HL1 or 2 thing with mods included.
>>726274007People still read books from before their time, watch movies from before their time, and listen to music from before their time. Games are no different.
What triggered the janny?
>>726273436Other thread got nuked ripPersonally id like to see the autism continue until december 11th
It's one of those things where it can't possibly live up to the expectations.
>they deleted the other threadThey're still mad. Mods, take the hopepill
>>726274007Why do I always see this posted? Did do these anon(s) not remember all those squeakers on GMOD and TF2 that HAD to have grown up by now? What about all those liminal space gmod videos from all those zoomers? Fuck was it impossible for you to comprehend that kids could have played it on the xbox 360/ps3 in 2007-13 with the orange box? Even as a Zoomer all my friends know or played Half Life 2, Portal, GMOD, or TF2.
>>726273436Extremely reddit.
>>726273436Why are lovers pretending this is some 2010s hype? Noone fucking cares anymore about NuHalf Life.
>>726274869You're reddit
>>726275447
>>726275675>NO UIt's like I'm back in 2007.HL3 is gonna bring us back to the good days
>>726275447*rapes you*
>>726273436Will be hilarious when thus 'highly anticipated' game only does 2 million in sales
>>726273436This was first in the catalog. You almost bamboozled me OP.
>>726274685>2013I remember mods used to have some interaction with /v/. I got called cute by one of them, but that won't happen anymore :(
>>726276987Maybe you stopped being cute?
>>726275447But what about half life?!
>>726275447kill yourself
>>726277927Both in my top 10 games of all time. Love em to death.>>726275849>>726276695>>726277968haha
OHHH BABY GOLIM GOING FOR GAGA BABYOH MY FRIENDSAHHH I AM LIKE HAVING SEX WHEN I AM PLAYING HALF LIFE 3 ON COMPUTER PCOH YES I SAY!

>>726280710good night
>>726275447Nigger
>>726273436I do not want half life 3 anymore, if it ever does come out they are not going to continue the game I wanted a sequel to, they retconned episode 2 with Alyx and now I genuinely want it to not come out. It makes me depressed how valve is incapable of making anything good anymore.>release alyx>good game>shits on half life's legacy>release cs2>okay game>shits on counter strike's legacy
>>726275447Stupid
>The steam banner is still not updated
>>726275447fuck
Real?
>>726273436BROS... WE FUCKING MADE IT.
>>726275447Fucj ofjfnnd
>>726280959this, I don't know why anyone would even be excited anymorethere's no chance in hell this thing is EVER going to live up to the hypeand like you said it's not going to be half-life 3, the game they had in mind right after episode 2, but something new that's not even canon to the original series
>>726273568Same, it was literally the first thread on the catalog for me too
>>726273436Hope... fading...
>it was fakeValvesisters...our response?
>>726279893We Americans are sleeping right now.
>>726278469Tomorrow…
>>726274707>Why do I always see this posted?Because it's guaranteed to get (you)s
>>726281771We wait, till tomorrow
>>726281771November 19th, trust the plan
>>726275447Lol
>>726274007Naa most people from my generation (early 2000s) wouldve atleast heard it from the “Half life 3 confirmed” memes. But you’re right, actually going on Steam and checking, most of my friends have NOT played or finished HL1/HL2.But I suppose things like that can change, especially with a game announcement
>>726273436>only 100B of all thatflop
>>726275447Permanent off-world assignment for you buddy.
>>726275447FUCK OFF!!!!!!
NON BELIEVERS AND ALL “NOTHING HAPPENS”ers WILL NOT BE ALLOWED FOR WATCH THE TRAILER (coming soon btw) WHEN IT RELEASES
>>726273436they couldnt yesterday because of the where winds meet banner, but today frens, today is the day.
>>726282706
>In the mean time, this is where I get off...
It will be announced and released tomorrow.It's always tomorrow.If it's not tomorrow it's in 2 weeks.
>>726273506No one under 25
>>726275447Thats not very nice.
>>726282947You mean under 35. I am 30 years old and even I didn't get to play HL on release.
>>726282885TWO MORE WEEKS
>>726283087Older zoomers care about it indirectly because of gmod at least. Younger zoomers don't even care about that since they have roblox.
>>726275447kys
REDDIT-LIFE 3 CONFIRMED!!! I AM SOHYING THE FUCK OUT!!
>>726273436how many times are you going to do this?
>>726275447fack
What is supposed to be the joke here? "Learned to count"? Sure, 3 comes after 2, but the existence of 2 does not guarantee or even imply 3. I don't get it.
>>726283447Newfag
>>726273506I want to see their attempt to explain what exactly gman is.
>>726273436>sticky
>Oxford scientists achieve quantum teleportation milestoneBROS?!
>>726273989The classichttps://youtu.be/cYpz3abAk98
>>726273506I mean people are technically excited because it COULD come with a proper Source 2 SDK, and people could make fun shit with it and it could be like when Half Life 2 came out in 2004.But at the same time people have fairly tempered expectations since none of the other Source 2 tool releases come really close to being adequate in this regard barring maybe SteamHome, and that has the problem of being VR only.
>>726284619>Cloudfare's problems>Also thishttps://phys.org/news/2025-11-quantum-teleportation-photons-distant-sources.htmlIt's literally going to happen
>The new banner is still not up
Remember, HL:A's trailer didn't drop until Thursday. This means it's still possible for today and tomorrow.
>>726273436i'm so glad i didn't kill myself bros it was all for this
>Gordon Freeman>G_____ ____man>G manHOLY SHIT
>>726285768I have an erection
>>726285768FVAAAAAAAAAAARK
>>726273506I just want it so I can complain about it inevitably failing to live up to the impossibly good Half-Life 3 I built up in my imagination.It's not my fault that my expectations are deliberately impossible to reach. It's everyone else's fault for not trying to harder to please me even though I intentionally refuse to ever be satisfied.
>>726283987I mean, it's pretty obvious. He's the middle manager for an interdimensional race of reality benders who are at war with the Combine, similar to the Vortigaunts, and he's orchestrated the Combine invasion of Earth, likely as a way of getting the heat off his own race, or perhaps cripple the Combine so his faction can come in and deliver the finishing blow
>>726275447niggaaaa
an entire generation has been born and reached adulthood without seeing a HL releasethe social currency aspect of it is completely dead
>>726273436I'm glad it's fake, if that's how they announced it. 'we finally learned how to count' is the gayest, cringiest, redditest dum fucking shit, doesn't make sense, trivialises, fucking shit fuck, it's making me angry just looking at it. I'd rather it never exists than for it to be announced like that. Fuck you op.
>>726286401Yeah the "we finally learned how to count" meme always pissed me off. I remember, a long time ago, someone was describing how Gabe would come out on stage at E3 (lol) and simply say "I finally learned how to count to three" before playing the HL3 trailer. I think about that often. How fucking cringey the loser who said that was, and all the losers who upvoted it. I'm glad I'm not the only person who is haunted by the sheer reddit cringe that exists in this world
>>726273436who fucking cares?
POSTING IN A STICKY
>>726286254The "employers" can't actually see the combine as a threat if they're 4th dimensional beings. They could just manipulate them out of reality. Their motivations seem to lie in "valuable investments" and hiring subjects, whatever that means. I also just want to see if they have a true form, gman is clearly cosplaying a human to manipulate people.
>half life4chan the game>half life 2reddit the game>half life 3????
>>726273436won't play unless they mod a third person view mode
>>726286905r/4chan the game
>>726286932> i want my game inferior please
>>726273436AND CAPCOM ALSO ANNOUNCES MEGAMAN X9, GUYS!
>>726286254>>726286864the g-man work for future humanitylike how in Interstellar the whole plot is set in motion by humans in the far future putting the black hole near Jupiter
>>726286864>The "employers" can't actually see the combine as a threat if they're 4th dimensional beingsIdk, it's all up to interpretation, but I disagree entirely. In Alyx, the G-Man pretty much straight up says he can't get the Combine off Earth. It's not within his power. I'm sure you interpreted that more as WON'T instead of can't but idk, he sounded almost sheepish when he admitted it. Again, it's well-established that the Vortigaunts and the G-Man are roughly on the same level of power, and the Combine effortlessly conquered the Vortigaunts, so I think it's downright silly to say there's no way the Combine isn't a threat to G-Man and his people
>>726275447n'wha
>>726285684The unknown app also received an update in the last hour. Crunchtime at Valve?
>>726275447Faggot
Valve are too scared to end the story after they saw how poorly people reacted to Mass Effect 3.
>>726288949We already have Epistle 3. At this point HL3 just needs to exist and we'll be happy; it doesn't need to be GOTY.
Hopium status?
>>726288584tons and tons of commits for just HLX and mention of a demo, that is probably what they are crunching on to get ready
>>726289163>still pushing this fake image
>>726275447Every time I see this I'm like "good riddance".
>>726273436riCHOCHEEEET TwoOOOOOOooooOOOO0000!!!
>>726275447gotme
It's going to be announced at TGA.It being announced at the TGA has been a running joke for years, so nobody believes it at this point. They'd rather believe it will be announced at some random Tuesday. But this is EXACTLY why they're gonna announce it at the TGA, it'll be moment people expect it the least.It's basically Sun Tzu all over again.
>>726289254Ricochet might actually work as VR minigame tbqh.
>be on TF2 server>mid-game>shout in chat: "EVERYBODY CHECK TWITTER, VALVE JUST ANNOUNCED HALF LIFE 3 AND UPLOADED A TRAILER!">watch every player stop moving for a few secondssurreal

>>726289424>tf2troonHow's your grooming session coming along, xister?
>>726275447fu
they should have tweeted just the word "three" and then announced "three" things (controller, vr, box)

>>726289596NO FUCKIGN WAY
>>726289606It's an amateur recreation of this image from over a decade ago
>>726289505Going great, I pounded yer ma and yer da in their asses
>>726289378>All the "insiders" going on about no TGA announcement>Since the Steam hardware announcement they've been talking about conflicting dates on what Valve is going to do next>No announcement yet>The "insiders" are now distancing themselves from the whole thing like the bitches they are >The supposed November announcement doesn't seem to be happening yetThe more I think about it, the more I believe in TGA reveal. Either that or the game is still far off to begin with.
>>726289163I googled out of interest, Chris Shambaugh is at least a real person who works at Valve, didn't check anyone else.
>>726273436>Game hasn't been updated for two years and the dev breaks silence just to make a bullshit joke for April fools then fucks off again.ha ha..... trolled
Reposting the SteamDBs that are claimed to be it.>Similar update pace>Any update with a note is updated at the same time>CDKeys distributed at the same time>Dates added: Link 1 is when Alyx rewrite allegedly started, Link 2 was Alyx's release datehttps://steamdb.info/app/1063600/info/https://steamdb.info/app/1275750/info/
>>726289818Iestyn Bleasdale-Shepherd was a real Valve employee but left for Meta a while back, which obviously disproves the whole thing.

>>726289727Post hands and curse Vishnu and/or Mohammed by name.
>>726289818>>726289192There's several real valve names on there, though I haven't checked all of them. It's possible it's fake, but I doubt someone would go through the effort of finding real valve devs whose expertise lines up with what's written here just for a fake.
>>726289994But if someone went through the effort to find real valve devs, then surely they'd also know which ones are still working there, right?
