I just want a god damn conclusion to the fucking cliffhanger they ended Episode 2 on. I don't care if it's just more HL2 or slides back to HL1 or is the shittiest game ever; I just want resolution. ๐ฌ
Didn't half-life alex expand on it? Haven't played it myself.
Not really no. It's a separate story with separate characters in a different part of the world. They reference a couple things, but it doesn't give any hints or conclusions to the main series.
It retcons the end of episode 2 and then ends on it's own cliffhanger. Its weird to do that and then have no plans for a third.
At this point I would be happy if they patched Ep2 to fix the cliffhanger and gaslight everyone that its always been that ending lol
I wouldn't be so sure. I felt the exact same way about Shenmue, and the third game ended up being worse than if they just left it alone.
Well epistle 3 was released that can at least give you an idea about what the arc was going to be. Ofc it might not have ended up as the final draft. I found it kinda depressing tbh.
