Half-Life 2: Episode 3 never happened because Newell "couldn't figure out why doing Episode 3 was pushing anything forward."

Half-Life 2: 20th Anniversary Documentary by Valve

    But that was not exclusive to HL2. That’s for every AAA PC game released at the time. Don’t tell me you could run GTA:VC but not HL2.

      VR is not exclusive to Alyx as well. I could run Diablo 2 but not HL2.
