Episode #47: Gabe Newell 2011 Interview, Part 1
Part 1 of 2. We present the second Gabe Newell interview thanks to community member backstepper. Newell answers a range of questions submitted by the community.
Newell: Well a lot of the ideas for Propsero have sort of influenced our other games subsequently. So, you know, wether or not we actually go back and do that specific game I don’t know, it actually has a lot of appeal to us, we’re all sort of fond of it. Nothing every really dies here, it’s just a question how long until we get around to doing it. We just have so many opportunities to do so many different things. I mean I even get emailed from people saying ‘What about Ricochet 2?’, which is kind of astonishing. We actually have twenty six people who’s first Valve game they every bought was Ricochet on Steam so like I said nothing ever appears to ever really die, you just haven’t gotten around to doing it yet so I’d put Propsero into the camp. And even further back than Propsero, the other game that Mike [Harrington] and I were talking about before we’d even had anybody other than us working on it was a submarine game. Mike was absolutely certain there was an opportunity to create fantastic underwater visuals and gameplay, so if people want to know the even furtherest back thing we have haven’t gotten around to shipping yet it would have to be the unnamed submarine game.
Wooooooo Can't wait! Although we don't know when...
Mr. Newell, what about EP3?
