Half Life fans have been waiting for years for news about Half Life 3, and some are running out of patience. Some are really wondering just what the hold-up is.
Valve hasn’t said anything official, but this doesn’t stop the gossip. They talk a lot about the potential reasons for this epic delay.
In case you were curious, a Steam account transfer via will is not permitted according to an official response from Valve.
Would be nice if the article's writer looked into and reported whether other digital game libraries could be transferred over via will (Xbox, Playstation, Nintendo, EGS, EA app, GOG, Ubisoft Connect, Rockstar Launcher etc) instead of this half-baked piece but it's probably the same for all of them anyway
This seems like a way bigger issue than mandatory PSN account linking for PlayStation games.
So where is the outcry?

Nice bend at the knee there Gabe. Seriously? A quirky character arena shooter? This late into the me-too-shooter market? I thought you guys were so much better than that crap. Gabe must need a bigger yacht.
Fan projects Team Fortress: Source 2 and Portal 64 have shut down after Valve intervened in their development.
First they open Steam up to more AI, now they are shutting down fan projects when at one time they used to support or even give the fans jobs.
Wonder what's going on with Valve at the minute.
There's potential that Valve had already planned to bring Source 2 to TF2 officially after Counter Strike 2. It's been getting some renewed attention lately.
You got Nintendo to thank for Portal64 being taken down. As for TF2, most likely it's due to the probability of Valve working on a source 2 port themselves. It's sucks but Nintendo are the biggest pricks in the business and not letting this drag out into a huge court drama is the best decision.
The last proper Half-Life game was HL2, which came out holiday season 2004. In fact I believe it came out the same day as Halo 2. That was a long time ago, going on 10 years. I think we would have had a new HL if they knew what to do with it, but like the article said they may have hit a dead end and maybe were not really looking to keep making HL games. I wish they would just come out and say that they have moved on.
This subject is enough to make a grown man cry.
