Or he watched one (1) JJ Abrams movie and is just trying to use the cool kids' space jargon in an attempt to get people on his side

They've admitted to cancelling ideas before, getting to various stages of production before going back to the drawing board, but always (and appear to still) insist that it is in development on some level. That's why Newell's responses to questions about hl3 are usually some form of "we have nothing new to share." Valve doesn't like sharing until they're in the final stages of development, and hl3 has never made it that far.
When I look at the steam store Portal has a price tag of $9.99.
Portal didn't come out until 2007 with the orange box, which also had hl2: episode 2 (and tf2), but the base game of hl2 came out standalone in 2004. This giveaway is a celebration of hl2's 20th anniversary, so maybe they'll do a portal giveaway in 2027.
Voting isn't an endorsement for literally everything a candidate says and does. No one even knows who you vote for unless you tell them. It's about picking the best of the choices. Your lack of a vote is just as much an endorsement of genocide as a vote for Trump, especially since he won.
Oh cool, good job waiting until AFTER the election to do this incredibly basic and easy move, everyone. Jesus fucking christ
Who's Deez?
The whole "trans women in sports" thing is one of those talking points that technically has some validity, but is used in bad faith as a wedge by bigots to try to enact far reaching bans on all trans people in all spaces. Trying to talk to people who bring that up is exasperating because if you give them that inch, they'll take a mile, instead of acknowledging how puberty blockers and long-term HRT level the playing field, or trans men.
I think most of them simply opt to not use the Internet as often
Yep. Two weeks ago I was thinking I'd wait through at least one more gen of CPUs and GPUs before upgrading--I've got a 6700XT which works great, but everything else is basically 2012-era tech. Now I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on replacing basically everything but the GPU as soon as tomorrow. If the country is going to implode I may as well have some extra pretty distractions.
I bet a big reason they get pilfered is because no one has any confidence in the outcome being changed. The biggest contributors aren't being forced to reduce emissions, we're shooting past "acceptable" temps, and in that kind of environment, even people who joined with good intentions may decide to cash out and enjoy what they can, while they can.
And once that process starts, it gets cyclical... corruption because goals aren't being met anyway because of corruption...
Don't worry, there's enough blame for everyone to share

Leaving it to rot for 15 years was far more unjust than a slightly less "revolutionary" game. And the concepts they show in the new doc are cool as hell! I would have loved to shoot at blobmonster! They just decided singleplayer FPS games weren't as profitable, and that's fine, I guess. They're a company, they want to make money. But pretending they were somehow doing us a favor by leaving the cliffhanger for so long is utter nonsense. Especially since they wound up simply retconning it so the whole wait was pointless anyway!
Edit: y'all they literally said in the doc that if they'd kept working on it for 1-2 more years they would have been able to complete it, but they were more interested in multiplayer games and went to go work on that. But if you really want to drink the self-aggrandizing bs that Newell spouts, go right ahead
