Half-Life 2 Q&A [Jun 08, 2003, 11:42 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
HomeLan Fed's Half-Life 2
Q&A is online, talking with Valve's Gabe Newell about what can de
revealed about plans for their shooter sequel. Along the way, they cover a good
deal of ground, confirm that they still expect to make their September 30
release date, and more. Here's a bit on the reasons behind setting the game in
the fictional European location of City 17:
Within the story, there are reasons why you are in City 17. Outside of what is happening in the story, two factors influenced our inclusion of City 17 - the first was that Viktor Antonov grew up in Romania and without really intending to he got a bunch of the artists excited about an art direction that drew heavily on eastern European source material, and the second was that thematically present day eastern Europe exists at a really interesting crossroad between the past and the future which resonates with what goes on in Half-Life 2.
It's really stupid, rediculous even, how much I am looking forward to playing this game.
Agreed. I'll be upgrading my computer for this one so that I can play it in all it's digital glory.
