"Valve can't innovate with HL anymore" All these stuff that I'm hearing sound pretty innovative to me. I'm hoping that they will do the real time moss for the shits and giggles.
There is still endless ways developers could innovate. Problem is, the gaming space hasn't seen much innovation after the release of live-service games. Lack of any real innovation thus gives gamers the illusion that innovation has hit a dead end, while the real issue is lack of effort and prioritising profits over anything original.
Half-Life is only made to innovate. Really if they made something as interactive as HL2/Alyx or Duke Nukem Forever 2001 and then did something new on top of that then the game would crush the industry yet again.

Yep. Gabe Follower is actually Russian. And this is his voice. And this is AI. He recorded his voice for AI Voice company (Can't remember their name), and use it for his English videos.
A half life style open world game doesn’t sound that bad lambda caches have always made half life 2 feel like a semi open world game, especially in episode two, and half life 1 always allowed you to back track pretty far depending on where you were in the game.

We need more people to get onto the VR so VR stuff gets developed faster and stuff to get cheaper so more people can get into it
@@kajmak64bit76 because forcing people into buying an at this point outdated 1000$ vr setup clearly has worked so well in the past with HL:A. Thats just delusional. I own a Index myself and played HL:A but demanding them to make the next major HL game VR only locking out the vast majority of the fanbase again is just crazy. There is a reason why the flatmode mod was more popular than the game itself. Nobody is spending 1000$ to play one game, hasn't worked with HL:A and won't work with HL:X. All it does is lock out the fanbase that has waited for over a decade at this point. Tripple A VR mainstream gaming simply doesn't exist as much as I dislike that fact and even Sony seemingly has given up with PSVR since they opened it to PC and cutdown the price since nobody bought it with Meta barely scraping by by making everything quest exclusive they can get their hands on and even their department is burning money like crazy.
@kajmak64bit76 @BizzMRK you cannot design a game to work well with both VR and Non-VR. Like you said, the Half-Life Alyx no VR mod feels uncanny because you're interacting with the game in a fundamentally different way than it was designed. A lot of stuff gets lost in translation HLX has removed all of the VR components from HLA, so most likely not VR. maybe someday someone will make a cool VR mod like they did for HL2 I'd like it if Valve kept making both VR and Flatscreen Half-Life games, they're both fun you don't need $1000 to play Half-Life Alyx, I played it on a secondhand oculus rift S, it was pretty cool
Fun fact: Todays on Lambdas Generation's Shifting the bar event (event where the HL community tried to break all time peak of Half-Life Blue Shift, VALVe said that they plan something special on 20th anniversary of HL2. I know this propably isnt HL3 but still. HYPE
I kind of feel like White sands could be a Half Life remake atleast in my mind "White Sands" reminds me of something being built up from scratch again with sand being something we've all seen before and the fact that white sands corelates with New Mexico which is where Half-Life 1 takes place
Alyx is such a boss VR game, they've got to keep it up. No other VR title out there can match the tightness and robustness, the number of objects, and combat accuracy. It would be a great shame if Valve did not continue pushing the VR envelope.
6:55 I remember playing half life alyx for the first time, VR is somethign else and I had little experience with it, the first time I had to go near a corpse it was so tense, nothing like playing a fps, in VR its right THERE, feels like it can touch you, and don't get me started on the headcrabs latching onto you, or Jeff ...
Imagine if going forward, all gordon freeman games (run and gun) were non vr, and alyx games (slower, more puzzles) were vr. Theb half life 3 is a gordon game with an alyx vr section as free dlc showing her trying to escape the gman
hoping the hl3 reveal is just gabe walking out on stage at whatever big convention, looking around at the crowd for like a good minute and just going "half. life. 3." and walking off with some trailer going
Everyone seems to be saying White Sands is word play on Black Mesa. This isn't really how Valve's project names work, they tend to directly reference more information about the thing the project is named after. It's more literal. So I thought the more obvious connection was that White Sands was where they did the *Trinity* test, detonating a *bomb* . You know... Trinity, as in 3. Dropping the big "3 bomb."
This is the correct use of voice Ai. Good stuff mate.

Mouth movements based on your voice is already in Half-Life 1 since 1997. CS1.6 also has this kind of technology because CS was a mod of Half-Life. The new tech will be better for sure but nothing new in Valve’s games.
That just detected whether a character was making a sound or not, and flapping its lips accordingly. Which resulted in Half-Life NPCs beeping and booping with their mouths whenever they interact with a retinal scanner. And micspammers in 1.6 playing songs with their mouths. This one is specifically designed for dialogue, and will probably be baked into the map like lighting.
If this is true, the last 6 months in gaming have been the most exciting in over a decade. Helldivers (before they ruined it), Black Myth Wukong, Delta Force, and now maybe Half-Life 3??? Please please please HL3 break the fucking mold and change the way games are made. We are in desperate need of it.
13:20 i dont know that day an night cycle has a reason to exist in a Half Life game, but i can see how building the system makes it easier to have consistent lighting for all the levels :jellyfish
I don't believe. Valve don't make games anymore. They have infinite money glitch from CS 2 and Dota 2. I doubt there is still any game developper left in this company. They can't even make a functional anti-cheat.
crazy how even after 20 years, hundreds of old employees working on hl3, and thousands of people tracking every valve move, not a single screenshot of the hl3 beta leaked
Honestly....I don't think "half-life" should literally be 2d anymore. It just fits vr so much. The level design in hla was amazing as well. It truly was "half-life".
Source 1 was the engine of the golden age of valve, this is why valve is taking their time to replicate that era with source 2. We already got a glimpse with hl alyx and that game was a masterpiece. We just have to be patient.
@@extraordinaryrock2013 Many of us can. The problem is the people who don't want others to just enjoy traditional games if that's what they prefer. VR is in no way superior to traditional games, far from it actually.

So yeah... half-life 3 needs to be VR first and foremost and maybe have a bundle sale where you can buy it packaged with Valve Index or something a big promotion like that...
We need more people to get onto the VR so VR stuff gets developed faster and stuff to get cheaper so more people can get into it
@@kajmak64bit76 because forcing people into buying an at this point outdated 1000$ vr setup clearly has worked so well in the past with HL:A. Thats just delusional. I own a Index myself and played HL:A but demanding them to make the next major HL game VR only locking out the vast majority of the fanbase again is just crazy. There is a reason why the flatmode mod was more popular than the game itself. Nobody is spending 1000$ to play one game, hasn't worked with HL:A and won't work with HL:X. All it does is lock out the fanbase that has waited for over a decade at this point.
Tripple A VR mainstream gaming simply doesn't exist as much as I dislike that fact and even Sony seemingly has given up with PSVR since they opened it to PC and cutdown the price since nobody bought it with Meta barely scraping by by making everything quest exclusive they can get their hands on and even their department is burning money like crazy.
@@kajmak64bit76 no way in hell will valve release hlf3 in vr, sorry but no
@kajmak64bit76 @BizzMRK
you cannot design a game to work well with both VR and Non-VR. Like you said, the Half-Life Alyx no VR mod feels uncanny because you're interacting with the game in a fundamentally different way than it was designed. A lot of stuff gets lost in translation
HLX has removed all of the VR components from HLA, so most likely not VR. maybe someday someone will make a cool VR mod like they did for HL2
I'd like it if Valve kept making both VR and Flatscreen Half-Life games, they're both fun
you don't need $1000 to play Half-Life Alyx, I played it on a secondhand oculus rift S, it was pretty cool
And how do you know hlx removed all the VR compoments of Alyx?
the day half life 3 releases the world turns into a black hole
A mp shooter set during the 7 hour war set between the military/civilians and the alien combine could be absolutely sick as hell
I think it would be super cool if they brought the Portal story a little more into Halflife 3.
i guess that's definitely on the cards, considering the introduction to the borealis
8:55 HALF LIFE 3, the rts.
So basically BM_STS 2?
I think it's a Half-Life 2 VR remake with the new retconned ending
Now is the question... will it be "We got Half Life 3 before GTA 6" or vice versa?
20 years.
This meme has been going on for 20 years
HL3 is pretty much the only game that would get me to buy a new gaming computer
Don't do this. Don't give me hope...
HL3 is indeed confirmed
HL Alyx ending already gave all the hope you'd need tho.
We're even getting Half Life 3 before GTA VI 😭
I wish. GTA VI will release before Half Life 3.
Fun fact: Todays on Lambdas Generation's Shifting the bar event (event where the HL community tried to break all time peak of Half-Life Blue Shift, VALVe said that they plan something special on 20th anniversary of HL2. I know this propably isnt HL3 but still. HYPE
what? where?
I don't think so.
Omg Gabe follower made video bout hl3 yep it's confirmed :)
I just hope it feels like a new game, like the skip from half life 1 to half life 2. We don't want half life 2 episode 3, we half life 3!
a lot of people still want it, but we have no clue what this next one will look like, especially after HLA ending
I kind of feel like White sands could be a Half Life remake atleast in my mind "White Sands" reminds me of something being built up from scratch again with sand being something we've all seen before
and the fact that white sands corelates with New Mexico which is where Half-Life 1 takes place
Doesn't necessarily mean it can be a remake
Left 4 dead code name was Hotdog i think
that would be nice, but I don't remember any gorillas or cars in Half-Life 1. plus, Black Mesa already fills that market, love it or hate it
@@extraordinaryrock2013 And Valve love it.
White Sands is a military test site.
Black mesa is already a remake, so why the fuck Valve will do another?
Alyx is such a boss VR game, they've got to keep it up. No other VR title out there can match the tightness and robustness, the number of objects, and combat accuracy. It would be a great shame if Valve did not continue pushing the VR envelope.
11:08 _and for the first time since forever, there'll be music, there'll be fun_
"Don't"
"Don't what?"
"Don't give me hope."
I never lost hope that Half Life 3 could happen
hlx could mean half life: xen
And it will be im from the future, trust me
@@trynox4fun259 cant wait for the replies to be "this aged like fine whine" or "this aged like milk" when it is half life xen
6:55 I remember playing half life alyx for the first time, VR is somethign else and I had little experience with it, the first time I had to go near a corpse it was so tense, nothing like playing a fps, in VR its right THERE, feels like it can touch you, and don't get me started on the headcrabs latching onto you, or Jeff ...
i feel like they would name the game half life xen in order to avoid the forbidden number
If they don't act like Entropy zero is cannon, I'm gonna be so disappointed.
Imagine if going forward, all gordon freeman games (run and gun) were non vr, and alyx games (slower, more puzzles) were vr. Theb half life 3 is a gordon game with an alyx vr section as free dlc showing her trying to escape the gman
hoping the hl3 reveal is just gabe walking out on stage at whatever big convention, looking around at the crowd for like a good minute and just going "half. life. 3." and walking off with some trailer going
Let's go they are learning to count more than 2
Vacnet 3.0
half life 2.9 + 0.1
Half Life: Alyx episode 1
Please don't.
Please don't give me hope.
It’s not April fools day. You might want to wait until then to release this video.
I don't mind the AI usage, but thank you so much for actually letting us know it was used.
Hopefully this is the long awaited Lazlo spinoff
The AI voice sounds fantastic, don't mind the comments Max
Everyone seems to be saying White Sands is word play on Black Mesa. This isn't really how Valve's project names work, they tend to directly reference more information about the thing the project is named after. It's more literal. So I thought the more obvious connection was that White Sands was where they did the *Trinity* test, detonating a *bomb* .
You know... Trinity, as in 3. Dropping the big "3 bomb."
16:02 wait its this left 4 dead 3 😢
we can only hope
This is the correct use of voice Ai. Good stuff mate.
Mouth movements based on your voice is already in Half-Life 1 since 1997. CS1.6 also has this kind of technology because CS was a mod of Half-Life. The new tech will be better for sure but nothing new in Valve’s games.
That just detected whether a character was making a sound or not, and flapping its lips accordingly. Which resulted in Half-Life NPCs beeping and booping with their mouths whenever they interact with a retinal scanner. And micspammers in 1.6 playing songs with their mouths. This one is specifically designed for dialogue, and will probably be baked into the map like lighting.
”Calculating using 1s and 0s was done 4000 years ago, computers are nothing new or crazy”
If this is true, the last 6 months in gaming have been the most exciting in over a decade. Helldivers (before they ruined it), Black Myth Wukong, Delta Force, and now maybe Half-Life 3??? Please please please HL3 break the fucking mold and change the way games are made. We are in desperate need of it.
rent is due,
The rent, The Rent!
Happy birthday my dude and thank you for giving me hope 🪼
13:20 i dont know that day an night cycle has a reason to exist in a Half Life game, but i can see how building the system makes it easier to have consistent lighting for all the levels
:jellyfish
I love it when systems aren't just developed, but "hyperdeveloped". You're just saying words, my guy.
Was that a non vr playthrough of half life alyx i saw at 0:53 if so what is it?
It's just a console commands you can use in game, still unplayable without VR tho
@@Smoochy1074I’ve played through on steam deck with no VR😂 theres mods for it
>open world
It's over
I don't believe. Valve don't make games anymore. They have infinite money glitch from CS 2 and Dota 2. I doubt there is still any game developper left in this company. They can't even make a functional anti-cheat.
they made half life alyx
dont forget the infinite money from steam!
there's a few game devs left
VAC Net 3.0 just came out, we'll see how it goes
they do make games. They made HLA and deadlock is confirmed
They made CS2, Half Life Alyx, and Deadlock. Also they make the majority of their money from steam.
crazy how even after 20 years, hundreds of old employees working on hl3, and thousands of people tracking every valve move, not a single screenshot of the hl3 beta leaked
Honestly....I don't think "half-life" should literally be 2d anymore. It just fits vr so much. The level design in hla was amazing as well. It truly was "half-life".
No jellyfish emoji in sight, yet thank you for this video and happy birthday !
If Half-Life 3 is actually in development I wouldn't be surprised if it's another VR game.
Source 1 was the engine of the golden age of valve, this is why valve is taking their time to replicate that era with source 2. We already got a glimpse with hl alyx and that game was a masterpiece. We just have to be patient.
anybody remember that parody gaben interview that came out 10 years or so ago? can’t find it anywhere.
“glug, glug, glug, glug, glug 🖐️ “
Thank you and Happy Birthday!
they should call it half life 4 just to fuck with us
Happy Birthday!
I cannot imagine hl3 not a VR game
i can =-)
@@extraordinaryrock2013 Many of us can. The problem is the people who don't want others to just enjoy traditional games if that's what they prefer. VR is in no way superior to traditional games, far from it actually.
