Half-Life 2: Episode One Update [Feb 27, 2006, 12:05 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
A new
Steam Update (thanks Frans) on Half-Life 2: Episode One discusses the add-on's plot and describes Valve's frustration at Half-Life 2's six-year development
cycle as one reason for the move to episodic content. The update includes a
thumbnail with a broken link to
this screenshot and a broken link to the recent
Robin Walker Q&A on Computer and Video Games.
But which episodic content have we been fleeced by?.... Apart from UT2K3, of course;P
In my opinion, any successful franchise becomes episodic. Valve is speeding up the process, which I kinda like... The whole cost per hours doesn't ring a big bell for me.... I don't know how long a game takes me to finish. I never ever time it. At the end of a game, I either enjoyed it and can't wait for more or I put it down to not being my thing.
Also, I liked some of those big open, empty, areas in HL2.... gave me a real sense of desolation..... like the world had been fleeced, prior to us personally via episodic content;P
