That was just an excuse by Valve. The reality was that they were unable to finish numerous HL attempts due to the shortcomings of their organisational structure and somewhat absent/aloof/fickle top management.
Maybe they’ve finally recognized and fixed the real problem. Maybe not. We will see in future performance.
- nerdjon 2y agoWhile I am sure that may be part of it. How they have built games recently seem to backup what they said. Aperture Hand Lab and HL:Alex was VR and partially pushing the Index. Aperture Desk Job I can’t remember the name of was for the Steam Deck. The way they have released games seem to backup what they are saying.

Major titles do not happen otherwise; excitement by the troops only goes so far, because there will always be setbacks and grind.
