HL 2 released over 20 years ago. In that time there have been multiple spinoff games, comics, fan theories, convention panels, and interviews that have added to the ‘lore’ of the series.
Consolidating all of that work from different authors, and requiring it to please fans who have grown up playing the original games and internalised its story is not an easy task. You can’t tell me that there wouldn’t be some ‘1/10 unplayable’ controversy because the writers forgot that Gordon wipes back to front and that’s integral to the 2003 arg web-blog backed fanon that his stank balls are what will defeat the Combine.
I do not blame the guy for not wanting to put himself through the trial-by-neckbeard.

Trial-by-neckbeard is a good one.
Agreed! Stank ball gate could have the potential to sink Valve
