@do_the_manta_ray: And this is the big discussion that Valve can’t answer of what HL3 should be, or if anything would live up to the idea. Folks who have left Valve have made it pretty clear that there was no plot arc, that they were just making it up as they went along. And it sounds like some HL project has constantly been in development, but never got to where they were happy with it. This will be the third mainline HL game. That’s exciting for me.
@lonelyspacepanda: I’m sure Link mileage may vary based on your PC, but it’s worked quite well so far. I’m excited for the actual Link cable, because what I have right now is too short for room scale. But it really isn’t too far off from plug it in, and it just turns on. Steam games have run fine through it so far.
@do_the_manta_ray: Sure, but HL2 needed a big step up in video card, and they pushed costly tech with Lost Coast (totally different scale, sure). VR Half Life seemed like the obvious call for years, because Half Life always was half tech experiment. And I say this as someone with a Quest planning to play it on Link.
