Half Life 3 is super late
The real question is… Can indie games publishers afford the delay of a game?
Valve was a completely new company then. They weren’t going indie, but Sierra didn’t pay them for the remake of Half-Life. In the documentary they talk about financing it by creating Half-Life: Day One.
suck is forever
Why is the consumer just expected to roll over and take it when a game sucks instead of the responsibility being on the publisher to release updates until the game resembles what was originally advertised? Games aren’t on ROM cartridges anymore, you can still improve the game after it’s released.
Look, No Man’s Sky set the precedent for what you’re supposed to do when your game sucks at launch. And we should expect nothing less from game studios with ten times the person-power and money.
No Man’s Sky is a great redemption arc, but it would have been better if the game hadn’t sucked at launch
It’s not a redemption arc, it’s a people forgetting it exists except for those who want mediocre resource accumulation simulators.
Joke on him, often game gets delayed under this exact pretext and it suck anyway.
