half life is a life that we just live in a cell and don't have life or anything to dream about, that so sensitive
Looks like they're in a barrel today
This is his legacy. Not the man that made Half Life but the man that didnt make Half Life 3.
This is probably the reason he doesn't do a lot of interviews.
Damn, that's harsh. And true.
Ironic right?
I wholeheartedly disagree. Gabe is still one of the most respected innovators in gaming, this is just a small aspect. He constantly is requested to give interviews and speaches regarding things not connected to HL3 and if he passed away tomorrow he'd be celebrated.
This is just a lighthearted meme, it barely affects his legacy

The stages of money and fame:
1. Confident because it's early on and you have something to prove.
2. Not confident because you proved yourself, but now the expectations are even greater, and it's becoming overwhelming.
3. Trolling because why am I still subjecting myself to the stress of meeting expectations? F you I'm rich now lol.

It's cheeseburgers now? Back in ye olde' days it was babies.
There is everything wrong with being fat. Being fat and morbidly obese is an abnormality that was introduced once our ancestors have passed the stage of having to fight and hunt for food. Now all it takes is a trip to the grocery store. Now tell me again how theres nothing wrong with being fat.

stop thumping this cmt up ppl, till the day valve ships hl3
Seeing him being so excited for the next game, then slowly not wanting to mention it anymore has me sad. I wonder what HL3 would’ve been like.
Still shrouded in mystery… maybe he lost inspiration or maybe something more personal. We may never know.
@@RSJiyutoAnzenI guess. Maybe he is waiting to make an insane amount of more money by just keeping the audience at the edge for a while. So this can be a very big event. Gab is really a good businessman. Well I just hope it's worth it.

+Walnut yeah
I genuinely want to know what made him abandon it. He treats it like it was a top secret experimental weapon and the government told him to stop.
Eh, you can google up some theories. I think the development team got busted or relocated, then probably came the disaster of steam boxes. Then everyone gave up, the materials were leaked, there was nothing to make the game for.
Then Half Life Alyx was made just to keep the brand awareness and test new hardware.
He doesn't think it would hold up today. The game market has changed multiple times over. It's a boring reason, but it's the reason.
Additionally, he lost all motivation for it. Gabe sent a gnome to space as a joke, if he wanted to finish half life he could, but he doesn't.
it is a top secret weapon, if HL3 is announced the internet will short circuit and break from the amount of hype. we’re waiting till we need to use an EMP on something to release it
@@comediccomrade5716 Jokes aside - HL3 could probably have the cheapest marketing campaign in the world. All Gaben would have to do is make a single image about the number "3" and the internet would do the rest. EVERYONE would repost it, even the TV.

It went from "we're working hard on this!" to "yeah we have a crew on it" and finally "i ain't talking"
I'm glad he has a sense of humor and understands how anticipated it still is though "Don't worry, i'll be sure to call the BBC when i have something to say" :D
why don't he just say it is cancelled ? why letting it up in the air ? why letting the fans suffer ? it is not fun Gabe, not fun at all :(
Ayadi A. It hasn't been cancelled. It was confirmed in his AMA when somebody asked a question about the half-life/portal universe and he confirmed a sequel. I can guarantee you the portal trilogy is over, so half-life 3 confirmed xd.
Chef Excellence yeah but Valve always claims they work on stuff that is in the interest of the customers. I see more people asking for Half Life 3 than I do VR or Steam Machines and Valve doesnt give 2 shits.
I think the point is that Valve's policy on making games focuses more on their own selfishness than the fans. "Yeah we are not feeling like making it." i understand but there is a fucking line you have to draw until it becomes just cruel and injust. Ep2 ended on a cliffhanger for crying out loud and every other company makes games on their announced dates, only sometimes prolonging them but still usually delivering. Valve just does what they want, hoping that gives better creative results.
They've set the bar so low that fans including myself are ready to settle for anything at this point. Even if it looks exactly like the Source engine HL2 it always did and has no new mechanics. We just want the story to end.
It's called half life because it's going to take half your life to finish the series.
Sebas O. it actually called half life because in a radioactive process then the toxicness fades away it turns into a half life when a person can barely live on process of it
Sebas O. Guessing you never took a simple chemistry class?
PikamonMaster It's physics tho...
i guess there something not right about half life
Sebas O. My theory is better. First there was Half life and then it was Half life 2. Two half lifes is one life and three half lifes is one and a half life. So we are all dead before half life 3

And more and more fat
It's weird because you can see exactly where the decision to stop working on EP3 happened. In the first couple of years after The Orange Box released, Gabe was very forthcoming in explaining how Episode 3 is gonna blow everybody's pants off. He was more than happy to discuss it and at least say "yep, we've been hard at work, it's gonna be great." And then sometime later that all changes. He's no longer happy to even mention it, he just outright tells people "I'm not talking about that", with no explanation other than "it'll be ready when it's ready." I don't think even Gabe was willing to admit they weren't working on it anymore.
Given the fact that Marc Laidlaw "leaked" the plot for Episode 3 years later, it wouldn't surprise me if some internal conflicts at Valve played a role in shelving the entire development cycle for the game. Something happened at Valve that made Gabe reach the decision to mothball it, and I don't think it's because they've been "too busy" printing money with Steam. The whole point of the Steam market is it's very hands-off. Nobody at Valve has to touch anything to make money from it. It's almost entirely passive income with the exception of occasional maintenance and upkeep. It requires nowhere near the same amount of man power to maintain, unlike developing a video game. I think something happened at Valve. Maybe some important people quit, or possibly even died. I think that's why the sudden shift occurred in Gabe's demeanor on mentioning the game over the years. It'd be one thing if it had been 5 or 6 years and he just got sick of getting the same question, but he became VERY disinterested in even hearing about it after just 2 or 3 years. All very suspicious, IMO.

New half life announced...
Half Life battle royale mobile game
@@Journey_to_who_knows do you guys not have phones?!
@SheepBlippy It was hardly edging past 2008 when he stopped answering things directly
It's a very understandable why he doesn't want to talk about it, he could answer that the game was pretty obviously cancelled because lead didn't think it was good enough to finish off the trilogy, if it was only that simple, there'd be an outcry, people would dig, did everyone think it wasnt good enough? Did someone fuck up? People would rather blame someone, be it gaben or just valve in general for ruining their most anticipated game release rather than the company simply deciding it wasnt good enough
Half life is a million dollar IP, and it makes no sense to start drama about it, a game was probably being developed and it wasnt good enough so it was cancelled, the worst thing that could happen if he is upfront about it is that people start harassing old employees of something that happened over a decade ago and would do everything they could to dig up a copy of it, or potentially spoil the story.
Worst case scenario if he doesn't tell everyone what happened? People are mildly annoyed and disgruntled over not having another game of their favorite series released. There's much more at stake than just killing off the expectations of the 1 % fanboy playerbase who refuse to see the obvious
He behaves like he dropped out of college, but still lies to his parents he's about to graduate.
As someone who tried and catastrophically failed to hide my failing grades, this is about as accurate as aimbot.

you either "die" a hero or live enough to become the villain
would you rather
Darth Bane You have either never played half life or it's just not you're kind of game/world because for me and many others it is an amazing game with an immense story. Being a fps game should not label it as a bland game, not all games have to be open world fps in order to have good story and immersion.
EXU_SKULLY nice Madara reference
Gareth Douglas the story of half life 1 was a bare bones Doom clone with only the ending conversation with Gman doing anything to flesh out the story, and Half-Life 2 has not aged nearly as well as people would have you believe. Half the characters are generic npcs from HL1 that they slapped names on and never get fleshed out cause they treat them like we're supposed to know who they are already. Because the characters know Gordon and talk to him like he already knows everything even though the player has no idea what happened between 1 and 2 or how any of these people are significant. Gordon Freeman doesn't work as a protagonist cause he's too established in the lore for the player to project themselves into but doesn't do anything to build the story since he never speaks. I mean Dr. Breen literally came out of thin air to be the antagonist and you barely see him before he dies. Episodes 1 & 2 are fantastic and still hold up really well but base HL2 is super below average shooter with some trash level design aside from Ravenholm. HL1 holds up better in terms of atmosphere and gameplay tbh.

"We have nothing to say about episode 3 or half life 3, but when we do, we will definetly let the fans know"
Year 3333 march 3rd Gabe Newell the 3rd Releases Half Life 3.
Morgan Kendrick People like that don't breed, do they?
Plot twist: We're actually living in Half life 3
Hong Kong is basically episode 2 rn lmfao
So that's why I'm feeling a bit g-man-ish today
Well, with Alyx, we will be living in Half-Life.
It's half life, we have two half lifes and it makes a *FULL LIFE* .
Half Life 3 is the friends we made along the way.
It has been so long, that even the meme died
John Lemon wow, that just sunk in for me ._.

oh ..my boy..you are wrong...the meme...

Floor
I had a dream that Valve released “The Purple Box” that had Half-Life 3, Portal 3 and Team Fortress 3. I was about to start playing it and then I woke up and was really sad.
:(
The best deal in gaming history, starting at $9,999!
"Why did you call it half-life?"
"Because we wont finish it"
Cuz it takes half of your life to get to see hl3, let me tell its gonna be a very long life
Because it will be the moment the earth explodes and we all die then everybody will be reborn in this save file In our newest game, half li-.
Because youll have to wait 10 half-lifes of uranium
Actuaally half life is a physical transformation of radioaction or something
@@neonsolace2748 The half-life of uranium would be finished before half life 3
Plot twist:
Its already released and you can only find it in the Blockbuster videogame section.
There is like one last blockbuster, but your gonna need you’re membership card to rent/buy one of our 100 available copies so dig your card up.
I have a lot of Blockbuster off-brands near me.
plot twist artifact 3 comes out for Mac exclusive
I have a family member who owns a block buster at least thats what he said
I do have one I bought near our blockbuster
The saddest thing is, people are dying; people die every day. Fans and just regular video game players are dying without playing HL3. Gabe is not very young, he could die before releasing HL3.
And not only very old, but very fat. The variety of heart failure risks are becoming abundant
Alluurpo whoa...ive been subscribed to you for years...thats really insane. You have no idea
+Jim Morrison i was probably still in my teens when you subbed me :D
Alluurpo yeah i was in my early 20's...guessing it was 2005 or 2006 wow that was a long time ago. You were my first sub, i was listening to a lot of bowie back then. Crazy. Its a small (youtube) world after all. Who would've thought we're both half life fans. Anyways, take care man! Nice "running" into ya
It seems like thats his plan
2:20
-I will now ask you the world's shortest question ever - Half life 2 episode 3.
-a..
-Thank you.
Fersotic best part of the vid 😄
Adam kovic 😂😂😂
What if he was about to say the release date but since he got cut off he now refuses to talk about the game out of Spite.
@@sourceofweb6681 he was like: "Hey, you don't wanna listen to me? So no game for you, I'm deleting everything!"
2:19 gaben was so ready to not say anything about HL but the fact that the dude took the mic away with a "thank u" broke him
You mean Adam? Yea he was cool until he fucked up real badly and quit the channel he created

This video came out in 2016. It’s now 2023, still no Half Life 3.

Too early m8.
+MyMindWorks777 Valve doesn't hire interns.
maybe Gabe did it to store some porn and blamed some poor intern !
Happened with half life 2 didn't it? It was completely wiped by a hacker in early 2003 if i recall correctly.
No. It wasn't wiped. It was leaked, source code included. After that Valve took out all the fun bits and weapons they had planed and released a half finished mess of a game.
you can pinpoint when it went from "We're working on it" to "We scrapped it, but we wont tell you"
DavedTheReal it’s out now
HL3 literally got confirmed after you posted this comment lol
@@ajaybay6195 It's not half life 3. It's a prequel set between the events of half-life and half-life 2
@@ajaybay6195 how... its a prequel and vr.
@@ronidude Not at all. They will make a very small amount with a vr game compared to an flatscreen pancake game. They are making a vr prequel because that's the only way vr can grow.
I wonder how many people have died waiting for episode 3
This video is so depressing
That is kinda heavy probably alot come to think of it
I feel sorry for the one that died and the one that still alive, but let's just say episode 3 won't happen and let's just move on
@@yadiyyussof95 Exactly, if it's not happening he should have just said so by now
It's been 12 years since Episode 2. It's obvious it was canned, or at least the original was, and he's not saying anything to save face at this point because it would rightfully piss off so many people.
He needs to stop hyping up something that will never happen.
Fuck when you put it like that shit man. Alot probably I'm still waiting for that shit 😂
It's almost been a decade since this video came out. 2 decades since the promise of episode 3
FUCK I can't believe the "These things, they take time" thing was five years ago
James Stokes WHAT DID HE JUST SAY!!
I love how his face gets more and more worried and uncomfortable by all of the lies through the years.
That's just depressing, man. Imagine not being able to tell the public the sad truth because it'll be the end of your career, company, and the community that expected and waited patiently for years. It'll be a damning controversy that's gonna be talked about for years if he opens up about it.
On the other hand, maybe he's just getting real tired of everyone's shit and is running out of excuses to delay the release of the game, hence the worried look.
He wasn't lying
@@teerex1314 steam would never die cuz of a cancelled game lmao
@@teerex1314 bit of a reach there. Steam isn't gonna die just because half life 3 doesn't come out ever.
Steam is the best. Origin? Epic Store? Get outta here!

you can pinpoint the exact moment Half-Life 3 was cancelled. it was at 1:25
You are right. He almost blurts it out twice...
He says that they're doing episode 3 around 1:52
@@KALSAFilms He said nothing about development. "We are doing episode 3" just means "Valve is funding the project... for now"
"Anything about when will see half life 3?"
*"We're not"*
ORO 0147 anything new graphically or is it a new gameplay paradigm?
“uh huh”
every time someone asks about half life episode 3 he gains a pound
True.🤣
That’s cause he ate it.
that's kinda harsh tho
Worth the weight.
and slightly more depressed
Coming out next summer: Orange Box 2
Including: Half Life 3, Portal 3, Team Fortress 3
i wish this was true,and also L4D3
supahtyp one milion dolars copy
I want this so bad,i love all the games
supahtyp I wish
U make me to cry ;,,,,,,,( we all know its false.
Finally
Something about half life leaks were found
Might as well just admit, "we totally planned on continuing Half Life, but when you guys starting funneling us millions of dollars through Steam, we just kicked back and got rich. why work on it now?"
Millions? Try billions.
SpiderCenturion I mean that’s true they didn’t really have any reason to make a third reason

The day will come, when at E3 you will see but a single chair and small table with a dinner plate on it bearing steak and asparagus. There will be a glass of wine. The room will be almost dark, except for one beam of light upon the chair and table. Gabe will slowly walk out onto stage, completely ignoring the audience and those around him. He will walk over, sit down. Place his napkin in his lap, and pick up his utensils. With an utter disregard for those around him, he will begin to eat. He will spend the next 5 or so minutes enjoying his luscious meal. He will finish eating, take a sip of his wine, and then stand up. Without a single ounce of acknowledgement, Gabe will slowly walk off stage, and out of sight.
Half Life 3 flashes onto the screen.
+Flowmasta Flam alternate, more likely ending: Valve officially announces the cancellation of Half Life 3, and all of the major employees proceed to walk on stage and piss on the audience with erect wieners
+CartoonWarStudios I think we should combine OP's scenario and yours. Gabe has a big ol' meal, enjoys the shit out of it, and then walks off as a big "Half Life 3 is cancelled," flashes on screen, at which point the Valve crew comes out to piss on folks. I can imagine that.
+Iceozo1 this would be the best fucking thing ever
Best Comment Ever!! xd
you can if its a half boner
I don't want to die without playing half-life 3.
literally whats going through my head right now but im only 21 years so about 50 more left
*Granted eternal life*
This sentence is the sadest story i ever read. I almost cried.
Me neither...
Gabe will die without making it
I love how you see the change in his approach to the question and it’s a hard one, goes from optimism to distain and anger over the name half-life.
there will never be a half life 3 because gabe is using all the money to buy those polo shirts
Jesus Gonzalez *Polo tents
Ralph Lauren tents 🐎👕⛺️
And Santa Claus
Jesus Gonzalez he's busy using all the money to buy his own CS:GO cases

In the recent AMA Gabe mentioned that devs use L4D3 as a place for building narratives.
the fact that this was 7 years ago is so funny.
HL games are released once every millennium:
1998: Half Life
2004: Half Life 2
3004: Half Life 3
if Half life Didnt Release before 2020 I Will Jump off a bridge live Pinky Finger ?
Every millenium is different from every 1000 years, can you read? From year 0 to 999 was the first millenium, from 1000 to 1999 was the second and from 2000 to 2999 is the third. So, by his reasoning, for it to come out in a different millenium than HL 2 it would have to be after the year 3000. Jesus people...
Richard Grunwald 1998 is in the second millenium, 2004 is in the third millenium. So he's right.
Except that the first millenium is from 1 to 1000, the second from 1001 to 2000 and so on.
Richard Grunwald are you autistic ?
I'm convinced Half-Life 3 is the biggest April Fools Joke that everyone took seriously.
That would be genius
Oh fuck.
Oh fuck.
From: 'yes half life 3 is in development' to: *we have nothing to say about half life 3*
I wonder what happened to him though. He changed like 180.
Leomann88 He got mid-life crisis.
Any day now
ok grandma, lets get you back to bed
He starts responding negatively in 2008... something must've happened.
2007 was the year episode 2 was released.
He wouldn't say something negative at that time or else it would hurt the sales. After the cash got in he started to backpedal
Obama.
Thanks Obama...
Well he realized remaking the counter strike remake is much profitale than developing a new game.
It surely didn't take em from 2007 till 2011 to make CSGO? I'd say the first plans for that game probably surfaced in late 2009 or so.
2046:
Half Life 3 card game
Half life 3 MOBA
Half-Life 3: Battlegrounds
Half life 76
Half life immortal
Half Life 3 Battle Royal
Valve on Half Life 3: We were gonna do it but then came CS:GO
