[Half Life 3 (HL3) doesn’t count as we already know that game is still a long way off from coming out. Like another 5 or more years.]
Portal
Portal, please
Honestly every valve IP
Maybe not tf3 though, perhaps instead if it was a complete rewrite of tf2 and engine port that fixed all the jank
Timesplitters. Can’t believe that series got left to rot
The first time splitters was one of my favorite games ever. I don’t remember why, but the second one I didn’t like nearly as much.
Deus Ex
F-Zero
Deus Ex. There was supposed to be a third and then Eidos sold out to make the Avengers game that flopped.
Elder scrolls. It’s been how long since the announcement of a coastline?
If it’s not out within the next 4 years, it will officially be the case that more time has passed between Elder Scrolls 5 and 6 than Elder Scrolls 1 through 5.
17 years between Arena and Skyrim compared to 13 years so far since Skyrim’s release in 2011 (and counting, almost up to 14 years if counting from calendar year alone).
When Skyrim came out, Bethesda promised free new Bethesda games for life to parents of kids born on 11/11/11 who named their child Dovahkiin. Young Dovahkiin is almost in high school now, and of the promised free games, their parents have earned a whopping:
- Fallout 4
- Fallout 76
- Starfield
Hope it was worth it.
That announcement and the “development progress” follow up was fake to placate people getting angry over Failout 76. If they even started to working on it, it was 2023 the soonest.
Pretty sure they said they weren’t going to working it till after Starfield. So it is still in early dev right now.
I would love a new Mother game to be honest…
or another Super Lucky’s Tale, with a bit more challange. That game was a real surprise, how nice of a platformer it is, also really really great music.
I’ve been saying a new mother game or at least remake in the same art style of the studio that did echoes of wisdom and links awakening would be phenomenal
Well, to be frank, I don’t really like that style. But wouldn’t matter; new Mother!
If you want Half Life 3, go play the Entropy Zero mods. It’s fanon, but they actually respect the franchise. Think of it as HL2’s own Opposing Forces. The first one is good, but the second is better in every regard.
What I’m looking forward to the most right now is whatever the next installment of Entropy Zero will be. There’s some spinoff stuff and a proper sequel in the works.
I’m also interested in Project Borealis, but that’s untested for the moment.
I’m not exactly expecting a sequel, but something in the Freelancer universe. Best spaceflight-ship-action combat game ever made, but never got the love it deserves… Even the story was good and entertaining.
Today all X3 spaceflight-ship are either a pain in the ass where you have to be an engineer to even get started, or need to grind 1000 hours to even begin to have “fun”. I miss freelancer’s simplicity and space fights…
Loved Freelancer! Did you try the Everspace games? They’re the closest to a spiritual successor that I’ve played.
Yeaaah I tried the last one, while It comes close and was fun to play, I missed the free universe roaming even if it was mostly empty (like the real deal xD).
Same, honestly. I’d kill for a remaster or a proper sequel.
Titanfall 3. I’m doubtful it’ll happen as long as Apex Legends and/or the Cal Kestis Jedi series is profitable, and if it does come it’ll be riddled with microtransactions in the multiplayer but honestly if we get some new evolution in the waltz between titans and pilots I’d still dig into the multiplayer for at least a few hundred hours. With the new server-side tech I imagine if they tuned the graphics to a more cartoonish style, they could 100% create a Titanfall-Battlefield crossover game with massive maps and plenty of environmental destruction that would be unbelievably fun and intense. Not to mention TF2’s campaign is in need of a follow-up.
In the same vein I’d love to see a direct sequel to Red Faction Guerilla. I’m not sure what caused it but it seems like AAA studios have shied away from destructible environments in a stupidly disappointing way. Rainbow 6: Siege is the only modern game with a seeming dedication to unscripted destruction; even Battlefield 2042 notably lacks it. RFG had some unbelievably fun mechanics when it came to the mixture of open world and destruction. Not to mention the themes in that game’s story would resonate well with most people nowadays.
Hollow Knight
I know Team Cherry is working on it, but I’m still pumped for when they’re ready to release it.
I guess death stranding
At least that one is confirmed
Mario RPG. No the Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi series (while fine games themselves) do not count.
Elder Scrolls 6, but after Starfield shown Bethesda is willing to sabotage the best thing about their games (modding) for no reason i’m not hyped at all.
X-Com 3, but i’m extremely pessimistic after the awful Chimera Squad, completely missed Midnight Suns and the generally weird direction entire genre seems to take lately with abandoning strategic layer in favour of boring sneaky real time exploration.
I would love Battletech 2 and Battlefleet Gothic 3 but there is zero hope after both of those series got dropped harder than 1000 ton steel ball in the ocean.
