I want to know how Half Life ends. I couldnt give a shit about fan shit. Some of its good and engaging, not putting it down, but its not relative to the current issue... I want the conclusion to the fucking story I paid for and got massively invested in, in 2004. That I bought the next chapters of in 2006 and 2007.

Two things piss me off like nothing else when it comes to media.

Stories that leave you on a cliffhanger and never finish.

and Stories that are amazing all the way up until the end, when someone just decides to squeeze a big fat wet turd out and said good enough (Fucking mass effect..)

I'd rather spend 18 years being blueballed and cockteased by Bea Arthur.

I would like to know how Marc Laidlaw was going to end the story. Well, we have Epistle Three, but it's not the same as if he had stayed on board. Entropy: Zero Two is staying closer to what Marc Laidlaw's laid out in Epistle Three then anything Alyx decided to do.

Hell, I've become disinterested in the Halo franchise because of the revolving door of writers constantly throwing out the previous team's ideas. The moment new writers come in, the line between canon and fanon starts blurring.
