[Half Life 3 (HL3) doesn’t count as we already know that game is still a long way off from coming out. Like another 5 or more years.]

      The first time splitters was one of my favorite games ever. I don’t remember why, but the second one I didn’t like nearly as much.

      That announcement and the “development progress” follow up was fake to placate people getting angry over Failout 76. If they even started to working on it, it was 2023 the soonest.

        Pretty sure they said they weren’t going to working it till after Starfield. So it is still in early dev right now.

    If you want Half Life 3, go play the Entropy Zero mods. It’s fanon, but they actually respect the franchise. Think of it as HL2’s own Opposing Forces. The first one is good, but the second is better in every regard.

    What I’m looking forward to the most right now is whatever the next installment of Entropy Zero will be. There’s some spinoff stuff and a proper sequel in the works.

    I’m also interested in Project Borealis, but that’s untested for the moment.

    I’m not exactly expecting a sequel, but something in the Freelancer universe. Best spaceflight-ship-action combat game ever made, but never got the love it deserves… Even the story was good and entertaining.

    Today all X3 spaceflight-ship are either a pain in the ass where you have to be an engineer to even get started, or need to grind 1000 hours to even begin to have “fun”. I miss freelancer’s simplicity and space fights…

      Loved Freelancer! Did you try the Everspace games? They’re the closest to a spiritual successor that I’ve played.

        Yeaaah I tried the last one, while It comes close and was fun to play, I missed the free universe roaming even if it was mostly empty (like the real deal xD).

    I would love a new Mother game to be honest…

    or another Super Lucky’s Tale, with a bit more challange. That game was a real surprise, how nice of a platformer it is, also really really great music.

      I’ve been saying a new mother game or at least remake in the same art style of the studio that did echoes of wisdom and links awakening would be phenomenal

        Well, to be frank, I don’t really like that style. But wouldn’t matter; new Mother!

    Elder Scrolls 6, but after Starfield shown Bethesda is willing to sabotage the best thing about their games (modding) for no reason i’m not hyped at all.

    X-Com 3, but i’m extremely pessimistic after the awful Chimera Squad, completely missed Midnight Suns and the generally weird direction entire genre seems to take lately with abandoning strategic layer in favour of boring sneaky real time exploration.

    I would love Battletech 2 and Battlefleet Gothic 3 but there is zero hope after both of those series got dropped harder than 1000 ton steel ball in the ocean.

    Quantum Break. Its ending most certainly was teasing a sequel. Unfortunately, Microsoft was never willing to sell the rights to the IP to Remedy.

    Hollow Knight

    I know Team Cherry is working on it, but I’m still pumped for when they’re ready to release it.

    Endless Ocean: Blue World. I got Endless Ocean: Luminous for Christmas and it is so half-assed and soulless that playing it actually raises my stress level instead of reducing it. My disappointment is truly immeasurable. It turns into anger because there are decisions that are just so objectively bad that they clearly knew were bad but just didn’t care.
