The anticipation for HL3 would be terribly high, and so would be the expectations of millions of lovers of the franchise, making sure anything other than a perfect game would be met with lots of negative reactions.
And it’s not just about a single game either. A bad HL3 could end up tarnishing the legacy of the other titles, forever ruining what is now a beloved franchise. Remember what happened to Game of Thrones? Who would ever risk something like that happening? Or, speaking of games, look at how much goodwill Bethesda burned with the release of Starfield.
I saw Alan Wake II is also recommended to be run from an SSD. I don’t play the latest titles so my question is, is this a new trend or has it been like this for some time?
