    > The game will feature a semi-open world, a weather system, day & night cycle, and smart NPCs that can talk with you!

    So it’s a video game in 2024, then.

    Every single skepticism alarm I have just went off on max volume.

    I heard it’s slated for a 3025 release date.

    The game opens with Gordon in a carriage and Barney saying “ hey you, you’re finally awake”

    According to Valve employees (just trust me, I cannot remember where to find the source), Half-Life 3 has been in the works multiple times. But every time it comes to nothing as they cannot find anything they believe would satisfice the audience.

    Oh, is it time for the annual Half-Life 3 rumors? Man, time really does seem to move faster the older I get.

    And here we see a HL3 rumor in its natural habitat: Unconfirmed on an obscure gaming website.

    These rumors normally prey on innocent, unskeptical Valve fans. But steady changes in Earth’s gaming climate have reduced their population in recent years.

    Are there enough innocent fans to keep this poor rumor alive? Seemingly not. This poor rumor will likely starve.

    Crazy how all media outlers have to do is tag something as rumors and everyone bites and they generate clicks and revenue.

    Next week “rumor: Gordon Freeman and the blackmesa compound are story based on a real lifetime event”

  11. the_monkeyspinach

    Smart NPC’s, huh.

    “Hey Mr. Freeman. Mr. Freeman? *Hellooo*. You’re just gonna stand there and stare at me silently? There’s something real creepy about you, pal. Seriously, say something. Anything. Freak, I’m calling the Combine on you.”

    And endless variations of that.

  12. It’s been too long since I had my heart broken. So imma jump IN with both legs..
    SOUNDS AWESOME! This time it’s true for sure! 🙏

    Yeah? And i’m the Archduke of Swiss Cheese

    They do this once and a while so HL and HL2 sales go through the roof

    Even if this is true, I don’t care. I played the original as a kid when it came out in 98′ and loved it, played HL2 when that came out in 03 or 04 and liked it well enough, but it’s 20 years later. I stopped being excited for episode 3 or Half-life 3, whatever they decide to call it, over a decade ago. If it comes out, great, I’ll play it. If it doesn’t, I will feel absolutely nothing.

    Fool me once, shame on… shame on you. Fool me, you can’t get fooled again.

  17. RuneHearth

    If you don’t talk nonsense to npcs like in scarface I don’t want it

  18. That_Cripple

    honestly i dont even think i want HL3. There is no way it could live up to the hype

  19. DMercenary

    insert “Im tired boss”.jpg

    and

    “I cant. not again. Im not strong enough.”.jpg

  20. Please don’t do that, don’t give me hope.

  21. 20 years of “real” has made me so fucking numb to this.

  22. bigfathairybollocks

    They better bring it out soon or all the people that are hyped for it from the last games will have died of old age.

  23. ChuckS117

    This is like the 3rd HL3 rumor I’ve read this month. Either shit is actually happening, or someone is making fake rumors and laughing at us.

    100% reliable & real leak from me:

    Half-Life 3 is either under development or not.
