And that’s a good thing for Half-Life Fans For years, Steam sales have been a celebration a flood of discounts, memes, and overloaded wishlists. But this time? It feels empty. Disappointing. The worst Steam sale ever, some say. And honestly? Good. Because maybe, just maybe, Valve is finally focusing on something else. Like… I don’t know... Half-Life 3? For too long, the endless cycle of Steam sales, hats, and updates kept Valve comfortably distracted. Profits soared, but the one thing millions of fans begged for was nowhere in sight. The silence surrounding Half-Life 3 became a meme, then a tragedy. But a lackluster sale? That’s a shift. A crack in the routine. If Valve isn’t putting energy into flashy sales, maybe just maybe they're putting it into something that actually matters. For the first time in years, the disappointment of a Steam sale might actually be a good sign. Half-Life fans, keep the faith. The worst sale ever might be the best news we’ve had in a long time.
