Résumé Sparks Half-Life Game Rumors

A post on Reddit points to a voice actor's résumé that's prompted rampant speculation that Valve is working on a new Half-Life project (thanks VG247). This CV has reportedly since been edited to remove the reference to codename "White Sands" that started this all, but you can't read it because the page now shows a "Bandwidth Limit Exceeded" message due to all the hubbub. Since nobody loves speculating about Valve rumors more that YouTuber Tyler McVicker, here's his reaction video making the case that this is the revelation of Half-Life 3. Here's the description of the clip:
It’s time. It is finally time. These last few days have been filled with leaks and new information coming to light about Valve’s next single player game, codenamed HLX. All evidence, including datamined strings from CS2 and DOTA 2, along with accidental leaks from former developers on the game, point towards this game being Half-Life 3.

I hear Alyx was pretty good, and that came out a few years ago. I need to pick that up.
It was not the second coming of Gordon, but I enjoyed it.
The Half-Life NoVR mod is a great way to play it if you don’t have a headset.

If you have a VR headset I would say that it borders on mind-blowing. Too bad that I was too focused on what it *wasn't* to fully enjoy it. Seriously, counting to 3 cannot be that difficult. I myself used to be able to do it.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice 48 times, shame on me. There's not even an iota of excitement remaining inside me when I hear another Half-Life rumor. When an actual sequel shows up downloadable on Steam, and not a millisecond before, I will be very excited.

Abiotic factor is interesting. It is one of the survival/crafting early access style games that seem to be all the rage. palworld, enshrouded, nightingale, saleblazers....

The excellent latest Prey game gave me all the Half-Life vibes I needed.
Then again, there is a pretty new survival adventure shooter game on Steam called Abiotic Factor that seems to be like Half-Life with a twist.

Plus: we all know that new Half-Life games will most likely be VR-only to push the Steam VR hardware sales.

I've been keeping an eye on new game releases like I always do, but beyond knowing that it exists I hadn't really heard anything about 'Abiotic Factor'. My attention span has been significantly lower as of late. I'm going to familiarize myself with it now.

Meh. "Half-Life 3" has been rumored to resurrect so many times that it's in competition with Christ to see how many disappointed stans it can accumulate.

Eh, the only time valve does something half-life related is to promote some other type of product. Orange box, then Steam VR. What will the next one be?

You have to figure how much effort it takes to produce a single product where they can collect 100% of revenue vs little effort to collect 30% of thousands of products.
