or just talk about the games in general. Is Black Mesa better than the original Half-Life? What is the best Half-Life game? Why are the games still so good? How about the post-soviet setting? How about how cool it is that most of the main enemies are cops and troops?
Episode 2 is the only well designed game of the three HL2 games.
Half Life Alyx has way better writing than any previous games in the series.
It’s really not a big mystery why Episode 3 never came out and it’s good that it didn’t. Whatever they’ll make next in the HL universe will be better than whatever they would have put out in 2010 or whenever.
Gabe himself even said that there was no reason for Episode 3 to exist at the time. They could have easily made another episode to wrap up the story but couldn’t come up with any particularly unique ideas for it
