Was definitely a fun VR game. Would you post this retarded shit if it were a male playable character instead?

No I wouldn't. It's a strange coincidence that the most famous VR game is the one where you play as a woman who actively interacts with the world, and the world acknowledges you as a woman. If troons have enough liquid assets to pay for HRT and "feminine" clothes, obviously they also have enough money and autism to buy a VR headset and any other hardware Valve puts out... Trannies are also more likely to own a VR because VR porn is a thing. Finally, Alyx was released in 2020, the year when self-isolation, Joe Biden winning and breadtubers mindbroke many men into trooning out. Me thinks Valve Software did a pro gamer move and capitalized on the tranny virus, and we're all too blind to see it.

I was just happy we got a new Half-Life game man.

...or, Valve wanted to create a new Half-Life, but if they used Gordon as the protagonist, people would A.) be more upset at being gatekept, and B.) rightfully riot if he ever spoke in conversation (which they were deadset on having characters do). Bringing back Adrian would have these same problems too. I guess they could've used Barney, but you spend less time with him as the companion than you do with Alyx through HL2 and its' episodes; I.E. she's more developed.

I think there’s a much simpler reason they didn’t use Gordon: they wanted to make it 100% crystal clear that it was just a spinoff, and not HL3 (or some repurposed version of it).
 
half life has been around for so long that they initially made alyx to be the archetypal sexy badass video game woman in same same vein as lara croft but valve were smart enough to temper it with a little bit of brown tomboy so it didn't come off as blatant pandering.

kind of funny that 20 years later there's a trend of video game companies making archetypal sexy badass video game woman but turning them into brown tomboys and ruining them, so people keep trying to drag valve into it
