Half-Life 3: Episode 3 never happened because Newell "couldn't figure out why doing Episode 3 was pushing anything forward."

Half-Life 2: 20th Anniversary Documentary by Valve

    It was the same for HL2 though

    Literally how? All you needed was a computer that could run games, which if you were into gaming on PC, you already had.

      It required a good computer which I living in a third-world country didn’t have.

        But that was not exclusive to HL2. That’s for every AAA PC game released at the time. Don’t tell me you could run GTA:VC but not HL2.

          VR is not exclusive to Alyx as well. I could run Diablo 2 but not HL2.

            False equivalency. Most games these days, and for the foreseeable future, aren’t VR.
