Could it be true? We’ve all been waiting so long I’m very skeptical anytime I see articles like this but this actually looks good?

If the cliffhanger at the end of HL:2 Episode 2 annoyed you, the one at the end of Half Life: Alyx will annoy you even more because it not only returns to that moment but the G Man uses reality warping shenanigans to overwrite what happens in it, and replaces it with a different cliffhanger.
Son of a bitch and his unforeseen consequences, indeed.
On the bright side, this also circumvents the need for the original events of Half Life 3 to happen, since Valve has consistently said they were not willing to make it as it was originally drafted (especially now since Marc Laidlaw leaked/released the entire plot online). So now I guess they’re free to do something new with the story direction… Whatever that might be.
Maybe put a spoiler tag at the beginning of your comment for those who haven’t gotten a chance to play Alex yet
I sort of get it, but also “Half Life game ends with G Man time-freeze BS and a random abrupt cliffhanger that will not be resolved for years, if ever” isn’t exactly an unexpected outcome for anyone who’s interested in Half Life.
You may as well just watch a Youtube LP of Alyx anyway, since I imagine the majority of players do not have the equipment to play it themselves.
I’m watching absolutely zero spoilers for it. It’ll still be there when I can get the gear together.
That’s not entirely true. I believe there are several people who made mods to make it playable without VR.

I will play it someday, and this will most likely be the way.
Damn you just spoiled it for me, put a spoiler on that.
