But I don't want an idea. I want HL3.Why would anyone have faith in Valve regarding HL3? They do NOT have a proven track record in regularly coming up with new ideas, they have only made 2 games, they mainly buy in ideas, so there is no reason to expect that HL3 would be good or better than other games in terms of being open world.
Sure, Valve is not very good at coming up with new and original ideas, but they are really good at making games. They did not buy fully established IPs, and in case of portal, not even fully established idea. And yet they make stellar games.
And not even in some original genre. HL - generic scripted on rails FPS, TF and CS - team multiplayer FPS, L4D - co-op zombie survival, Portal - one gimmick puzzle game... And you can't even copy them. Well, you can, but it won't be nearly as good. The quality of execution is the key.
Valve is Apple of gaming, only without all the Apple BS.
