Cita:Develop[/url]"]ÔÇ£In terms of Ricochet 2, we always have this problem that when we talk about things too far in advance,ÔÇØ Newell said.

ÔÇ£We end up changing our minds as we're going through and developing stuff, so as we're thinking through the giant story arc which is Ricochet 2, you might get to a point where you're saying something is surprising us in a positive way and something is surprising us in a negative way, and, you know, we'd like to be super-transparent about the future of Ricochet 2.ÔÇØ

In a podcast interview with Seven Day Cooldown, Newell suggested that ValveÔÇÖs ongoing silence on the Half-Life 3 project was fairer to fans than exposing the project along with its various transformations and delays.

ÔÇ£The problem is, we think that the twists and turns that we're going through would probably drive people more crazy than just being silent about it, until we can be very crisp about what's happening next,ÔÇØ he said.

Durante una entrevista dijo: "El problema es que, con los giros y cambios que estamos haciendo probablemente volveríamos más loca a la gente que estando callados, hasta que podamos ser muy claros sobre lo que va a pasar después."

"Sobre Ricochet 2, siempre tenemos el problema de que hablamos de las cosas con mucho adelanto. Terminamos cambiando de idea mientras desarrollamos las cosas, así que estamos pensando el gigantesco arco de historia que es Ricochet 2, podrías decir que estaríamos llegando a un punto donde dices que algo nos sorprende de manera positiva┬á y algo nos soprende de manera negativa, y, ya sabes, nos gustaría ser super-transparentes dobre el futuro de Ricochet 2."
