In Response To: Re: Why is everyone so against this? (RyokoTK)

: Hence my post at the very beginning of this topic, which, in my opinion, is a
: very accurate summary of what will happen to this project. Source mods
: take a MASSIVE amount of time and a staff of more than two people, with
: significant talent. Even then, the amount of time is tremendous and the
: likelihood of it even reaching alpha is slim to none.

: Let me put it this way: almost all Marathon total conversions don't finish
: (100s attempt, and I think there's like 7 finished), and these can be done
: with one person in less than a year. The odds of a team like the one that
: made Sigma or Eternal finishing a Source mod before HL3 comes out?
: Sliiiim.

At the risk of sounding stoogelike, I said it first.

Also: I wouldn't qualify it with "before HL3 comes out". If you found yourself still working on it that far in the future, it seems like you'd actually be less likely to give up without releasing it.
