Dammit. I got really excited for a moment. Not because I want HL3 (I actually don't care all that much for the Half-Life games), but because I think Gaben just casually announcing HL3 on /r/pcmasterrace would be the best possible thing he could do. It would be hilarious, it would cause people to lose their minds, and it would just be a unique thing to do.

[–]Shiroi_Kage 102ポイント103ポイント  (16子コメント)

Actually, the best thing to do would be to just release it casually on Steam without even mentioning it. Someone would end up finding it and the world will end afterwards.

[–]liquidpig 43ポイント44ポイント  (13子コメント)

Set the initial price to be $1000. Each purchase drops the price by 2% of the difference between the current price and $30. Once it hits $31, the price just auto jumps to $30. During this time, no refunds.

[–]lotsofsyrup 46ポイント47ポイント  (5子コメント)

it would hit 30 dollars within ten minutes.

[–]NoPlayTime 16ポイント17ポイント  (4子コメント)

Yea i'd probably take a hit at $1000 dollars to reduce the price by $20 for "everyone else"..

You underestimate the spending power of rich people and as well as people who are just crazy.

[–]Puppysmasher 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Rich parents would easily shell out that kind of money, just like they did when PS3 came out and sold for like $1500.

[–]thedboy 11ポイント12ポイント  (1子コメント)

It only takes about 170 purchases to drop to 30$ by that formula. That's really low expectations.

        In 7 hours, hl3 was delayed by 12 years, indicating at least 144 mentions in that time, which is more than 20/hr.

          This thing picks up on truncated forms as well. We are finished.

          [–]GhostlyParanoia 33ポイント34ポイント  (11子コメント)

          We need to establish a nickname for the game, i suggest Genysis.

          [–]SketchBoard 21ポイント22ポイント  (3子コメント)

          Still not going to pre order it.

          [–]lukeydukey 10ポイント11ポイント  (2子コメント)

          not even for a unique TF2 hat?

          [–]AnonC322 8ポイント9ポイント  (1子コメント)

          Maybe for free Dota arcana

          [–]KingCHAWLZ 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

          Hazard Suit for Tinker?

          [–]CookieTheSlayer 22ポイント23ポイント  (5子コメント)

          By mentioning Genysis you have delayed it by 1 Month. Ganysis is now estimated for release in December 2590

          Also spelled the game wrong in the second sentence.

              I think it picks up only the truncated form.

              Other posts mention Half-Life 3 without a bot answer.

              [–]Heratiki 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

                Trying too hard and too terribly to make it recurse and crash

                  [–]trua 26ポイント27ポイント  (9子コメント)

                  The solution is to mention it so many times the bot's variable will overflow to zero, causing HL3 to be instantly released.

                  [–]euyis 23ポイント24ポイント  (0子コメント)

                  By mentioning Half-Life 3 you have delayed it by 1 month. Half-Life 3 is now estimated for release in January, 1970.

                  Thus the timeline of this universe was changed.

                  [–]SUCK_AN_EGG 18ポイント19ポイント  (1子コメント)

                  By mentioning Half-Life 3 you have delayed it by 1 doot. Half-Life 3 is now estimated to doot doot on the 4th Moon of the year 1800

                  I am a bot, this action was dooted automatically. If you have to, please doot /u/APIUM- or for more info go doot /r/WhenIsHL3

                  it's gonna take a lot of HL3 mentions to reach 12/31/18446744073709551615

                  [–]Triplanetary 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

                  Actually if the bot is written in Python, as most reddit bots are, it's even worse, because Python doesn't have integer overflows at all.

                  [–]supenguin 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

                  It only works if Reddit is on 32 bit infrastructure (aka the 2038 problem). If Reddit is on 64 bit, we're screwed as I think we'll have to mention that game often enough to get it delayed a few billion years.

                      [–]Arch_0 6ポイント7ポイント  (1子コメント)

                      I just wait for the day it pops up on Steam with no warning. Probably the best way to do it so the servers don't get immediately overloaded.

                      Whenever they do announce it, it's going to be another ARG. I almost guarantee it.

                        I don't know, but the title felt legit, and for a brief moment I was ecstatic. I've never felt so betrayed.

                        Come on, like it would be announced on /r/pcmasterrace of all places.

                        [–]gangstabean 59ポイント60ポイント  (10子コメント)

                        It's not impossible considering all the AMAs done by Gabe Newell and other people in the PC gaming scene.

                        [–]Natdaprat 49ポイント50ポイント  (9子コメント)

                        Not impossible, but highly, highly unlikely. It makes no business sense.

                        I'm a fan of Valve just releasing Half Life 3 on Steam without saying a word, but that would never happen.

                        [–]ZenZibbeh 20ポイント21ポイント  (7子コメント)

                        When has valve ever done marketing?

                        The game releasing out of the blue would do all the marketing for them. They don't need to do shit.

                        [–]MoNeYINPHX 21ポイント22ポイント  (3子コメント)

                        Portal 2 had a lot of marketing considering Valve. Billboards, commercials, the works.

                        As did both Left 4 Dead games

                        Somehow, it fits. And the commercials were good; I've watched all those product demonstration videos several times.

                          Yup, it would get a million downloads overnight with no announcement whatsoever.

                          [–]hittintheairplane 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

                          What if it shows up in your library with the option to download it. Like when steam does free trials.

                          [–]toilet_brush 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

                          I hope you're right but I saw an actual TV advert for HL2 in the UK. That's quite rare even for the biggest yearly update games on console.

                                    This was the most disappointing click in a long time. And it wasn't because I was fooled by a false half life 3 announcement, its because I wasn't.

                                    And the funny thing is that it's not an actual game.

                                    There IS an unrelated game called Highlands though...

                                      And then someone could post a step by step breakdown of every mistake he's made in his life, get gold, have it crossposted to bestof, depthhub and legal advice and receive his 15 minutes of Reddit fame.

                                      Man, I've been here too long...

                                      And the game just happens to be on sale too? Can be a coincidence of course, but you know...

                                      To be fair, he said High Lands 3 was being worked on. There isn't a high lands 2 and all the flavour text he added doesn't seem to bare any resemblance to the real game. A google search just brings up an unrelated minecraft mod.

                                      He also didn't link the game until someone else mentioned it, and it's steam, stuff is on sale all the time. I'm happy to believe it's a coincidence until there's more evidence other.

                                      That's the cover up!

                                      That was his partner in crime.

                                      What a coincidence. I'm an invested masturbator.

                                      Remember when /r/bestof was reserved for the best of reddit and not just dumb jokes?

                                      This is not just a dumb joke. This is a beautifully crafted, very well executed joke. If you don't give a shit about video games, that's one thing, but for anyone who is interested in Half-Life news this really is a best-of caliber post.

                                      beautifully crafted

                                      If that logic applies to this, then it applies to Buzzfeed.

                                      It absolutely was a dumb joke because the actual game, Highlands, cannot be spelled using the initials HL. It's just a fucking troll and his shitty game.

                                      Beautifully crafted? Talk about low standards.

                                      Just because it isn't a 6-paragraph goody-feelsy post doesn't mean it isn't good. I swear most post that are really long and not rants will automatically get best-of'd.

                                      It wasn't a well-crafted joke. It gave it all away in the first sentence. It didn't lead anyone on. At All. "HL3 Confirmed" is posted so regularly that no one bothers to believe it anymore, so if they were going to go for it, they could have done so much more.

                                      Why would anyone even give that title a second thought unless it was posted by Gabe Newell's reddit account. Even then most people probably would be skeptical. Fake HL3 announcements have been a running joke for like 5 years now.

                                      I was laughing my ass off before reading the post. I knew it was bullshit, but I wanted to know what the bullshit WAS. Gaben said 3 in a comment? Or something like that? Nope, way better!

                                      Would’ve been fun if the announcement was that the game’s only coming to consoles and mobile.

                                      Ive never played the Half Life games properly, as much as I know that theyre great games, but Im barely a fan of them. But even with that, I was super excited for a brief moment. Fuck knows how the real Half Life fans felt.

                                      When I saw the thread I expected a rick roll but a small part of me was hopefull thinking I missed out on the announcement due to work , but god damn him and his made up game , which turned out to be real. Lol

                                      I'm now convinced HL3 (maybe this holiday) is going to show up randomly in the steam store. It's just waiting there days counting down until Gaben presses the button.

                                      Oh and every time somebody calls Gabe fat he delays it by a week.
