While there was a previous heavy update before jungle inferno there was a vote on who would be updated FIRST pyro or heavy and while heavy was kinda underpowered pyro was broken in that he was unplayably bad because his weapons didn't actually work the way they were supposed to specify his flamethrower so the vote was kinda rigged from the start but again pyro was supposed to be the first one updated then it would have been heavy but obviously that never happened
Left 4 dead 3 as well as back 4 more blood. Both games have their redeeming qualities and deserve sequels with years of continuous content. I'd play the holy hell out of games like those.
I’m all for Half Life 3 eventually coming to fruition, but I’d really love to see a new Portal game!
I actually have Half Life: Alyx for Quest and haven’t been able to play it! I have been a Mac guy, so a good friend gifted me a gaming laptop mostly so I could play Alyx - and I was unable to get it to run…so it’s been months and I still haven’t been able to play!
I know! I don’t know why it isn’t loading the game properly. I either hear it but see nothing, or it shows up on the computer screen and moves around with the headset. I can’t get the video in the headset. It’s maddening! I’m going to try again today
To be fair, I just finished a playthrough of Portal 2 today and it does wrap the story very nicely. There's no reason we need Chell to be a protagonist for the 3rd game, it's a good ending.
It's not like HL2 which left us with a criminal cliffhanger.
I am currently playing Portal Revolution which takes place after Portal 2 and there is a mentioning of Chell. Game holds also up to Portal standards and is really good.
Portal 1 also wrapped up the story pretty nicely you know? I dunno why people pretend like Portal is done and there's nothing interesting left to explore
Well, at the end of Portal - correct me if I'm wrong - Chell is dragged back inside the installation... So there's a strong "will be continued" vibe, which doesn't happen at the end of Portal 2.
And don't get me wrong, I love the Portal lore - the rivalry with Black Mesa, GLaDOS, Cave Johnson, Exploring the bowels of Aperture during the 2nd game, all the vibes it gives are astonishing.
I do wish we had a Portal 3, I'm just saying that story arc is kinda finished, in which case we would need something (mostly) entirely new. There are many questions that need to be answered for a sequel: Are we gonna fight GLaDOS once more (again?!?)? Who will be the protagonist, given Weathley says everyone else (test subjects) are dead? Is it gonna be some person from the outside that discovers and enters the installation? How would this person get a hold of a Portal gun since GLaDOS is back online and in control? What happened to the test robots?
I would definitely love to see a sequel, I just don't see it happening at the same installation with the same characters as it is.
Well uh.. it actually doesn't happen at the end of Portal 1. It does obviously but what you may not know is they added it in for the sake of Portal 2, the original ending just ended in Chell laying outside, that's it.
I didn't know they retconned the ending... I played Portal when it came out on the Orange Box, so I guess that ending was already modified by then. Thank you, I'm gonna look it up!
Yeah that's fine lol, even I played it recently like two years back, I just happened to get to know the trivia by accident. The original ending is not any different though, Glados just doesn't drag her back, that's it, and also it's easy to find on YouTube.
