If this has been posted before, I could care less. If I can't see it on the first page, I'm not going to tire my fingers searching for it. So flamers, unite if you must, and attack me with the wreckless abandon you're so good at.

As far as the interview goes, I found it quite interesting. Laidlaw talks extensively about how he goes about creating interesting characters that one can actually care about. Enjoy this read.

There are at least 2 or 3 threads referring to it.

And it's posted on the front page of Halflife2.net.

Like I said, if I can't see it on the HL-2 general discussion front page, I could care less. Besides, I think a lot more people will see this as a result of my post, and go read it. Informing the masses isn't a bad thing, ya know. Who cares if its a repeat? If more people become informed, what harm does it do?

Asking if the story evolved during development is a bit like asking if humans evolved from tree shrews. I can tell you that the story has changed drastically in the last few years, while still retaining many features in common with its primitive ancestral design spec. But there will always be those who believe the story was born in a single gush from the spigot in Valve’s forehead on September 29th. Ye shall know them by their bumper-stickers.

Sounds to me the 30th is the day :cheers:

Why else would he say the "29th" if it wasn't coming out on the 30th?
