The avg gamer/person doesn't give a fuck about Half Life. That ship has looooong sailed. Without the memes that game series would just be a historical footnote somewhere when discussing Counter Strike.
Exactly, like duke nukem for example.
There are millions of GTA players, all the kids seem to love it, IDK about the halflife user base today.
150k people went out of their way to buy a $1k headset on top of a fancy PC so they can play the half life VR spinoff. People today would absolutely pay $30 for Half-Life 3 if it was innovative and impressive. The ship hasn't sailed, the bar was simply raised.
