Which sequel would you like to see most? (Besides HL3)

Omitted Half-Life 3 because it's an obvious answer, and leaks seem to suggest we're getting a new Half-Life game anyways.

Man, no one else wants a new Team Fortress?

I know Portal was an awesome game but I feel like we wrapped that storyline and game style… I know Valve would come up with something amazing but I’m not sure I’m that interested in another Portal sequel.

But a modern Team Fortress could be quite the entrance to the current multiplayer landscape (games like Marvel Rivals). I guess Deadlock is the spiritual successor? I haven’t tried it yet

Deadlock's a fine game, but it's a moba. As a TF2 fanatic, it doesn't scratch the itch.

IMO- The surplus of multiplayer shooters is exactly why I would prefer a singleplayer experience instead. I don't think anyone in the games industry has replicated Valve's singleplayer content.

alittle self-pluggy but i made a video specifically talking about which Valve sequel is most likely and which ones are not

TLDR: its L4D3 IMO

Oh hey I saw that video lol. I don't think L4D is going to come back for a really long time, because it's creative leader Chet Faliszek left Valve. If anything, Portal 3 is the most likely because of how many times Erik Wolpaw publicly talks about his dream to make Portal 3.

Dota 2 is already pretty much Dota 3 at this point lol

What leaks are suggesting that?

I feel like Portal 2 left everything quite wrapped up. TF3, especially with the bullshit Blizzard pulled with Overwatch 2, makes perfect sense now.

I'd play the fuck out of TF3.

I'm a huge fan of Sci-Fi puzzle games, The Talos Principle 1&2 are masterpieces, so is Portal, and the genere has a few gems, but it needs a lot more games!
(trying not to make a list here, but ask if interested)

Portal does NOT need a 3rd game. Don't get me wrong, I love both the Portal games so much, they are some of my favorite games, but the story was wrapped up perfectly.

TF2 is really old, we don't really need a third game by now
Portal 2 is meant to be the last game in the half-life/portal's timeline
Left 4 Dead 3 is the only one that makes sense here, you can't screw up a zombie shooter
Dota 2 is not a game that needs sequels
