HLX, the game rumored to be the long-anticipated Half-Life 3, will feature a main story hook that may not be widely appreciated, according to rumors circulating online.
As reported on the Half-Life subreddit, known leaker GabeFollower commented on the game’s main hook during a livestream of another known Valve leaker, Tyler McVicker, saying that he thinks people may not like it. As leakers have been avoiding revealing story details, which are reportedly being discussed online in some circles, no other comment was provided, but it will be very interesting to see why this story hook may prove to be divisive, considering Valve’s known rigorous playtesting process.

Even if the main story hook of the game ends up being as divisive as suggested by GabeFollower’s recent comment, there’s no doubt that it probably wouldn’t be a massive problem for a game like Half-Life 3 that many have been waiting for decades. Thankfully, it shouldn’t take too long to learn more about this HLX project, rumored to be the third main entry in the series, as the game is undergoing playtesting for a possible Summer reveal and Winter release. Development is reportedly also close to completion, as the game is playable from beginning to end and the development team is focusing on optimization and polish, with content and mechanics already likely locked.
HLX – Half-Life 3 isn’t the only gaming project in development at Valve. Earlier this month, we learned that another project codenamed Tf is in the works, but being in a very early stage of development, it is impossible to learn what this project will be about.
