So for over a decade, Valve had no idea where they wanted to go with HL3.
Now they made HL:Alyx (awesome) and they decided to revive Eli Vance (again awesome). My question is, did they actually figure out where they want to go with HL3, and they realized they needed Eli for it, or are they back to square 1, where they don't know what to do with the franchise, but this time they also have Eli just because they could.
