The only fool bigger than the person who knows it all is the person who argues with him. They're all complacent sheeple. Passion fights, but reason wins.

They should have just commissioned 1-3 novels to finish the story with input from the necessary parties.

All signs pointed there. Around the time of Orange Box, it felt like they could do no wrong. Then we got Portal 2. It was a golden age... I don't understand their refusal to make a new Half-Life. If they wanted to play it safe, they could simply reimagine the first two and continue fresh with a third from there. Fix the things they're afraid of along the way...

The transcript that was posted is essentially a letter from Freeman to the player detailing his story just after the events transpired.

Basically Freeman went to look for a time traveling ship or something, found it then turned it into a time traveling time bomb to attack the Combine.

Just as they were about to complete their suicide mission, GMan teleports Alyx away leaving Freeman to die. Freeman sees the Combine home world for a brief moment and sees how futile the effort is.

Vortigaunts teleport Freeman away into the future or some shit and the player is left to wonder whether the rebellion was a success or not.

If that's how they were planning on ending it, I'm almost glad it never got released >_>

I think you mean RIP Half Life 2: Episode 3.

The video description has a link to his blog where he posted the story. And there is also a link to github where someone backed up the story because his site was overloaded. And on github there is a corrected version where all the names and genders are swapped back to their original.

I was never really into Half Life, but that still sucks. I don't know why they couldn't take some of the millions of funds they earned from Steam and just finish the damn thing.

Because the workers can choose to just not work on that project.
