This reads like a puff piece Forbes article for post-Half-Life 2 Valve, rather than a succinct behind the scenes on Half-Life: Alyx. The writing style is Keighley's signature obnoxious, lofty style, spending as much time talking about people's hobbies, work history, and family members as spent discussing the actual work they do at Valve. It's an interesting look behind the curtain at Valve but the only standout new information was all of the unreleased testing footage of early HL:A and various scrapped tech demos and side projects. However, if you followed Valve during this time you probably already saw or heard a lot about what was written here. I'm not sure who this was made for... It feels like a hybrid documentary/marketing vehicle made for non-gamers that was put to paper instead of film because there wasn't enough footage available to cover Keighley's script. The relevant content here is just spread too thin and is interjected by superfluous interactive scenes (like a headcrab soundboard). A mild recommendation because the video footage is very interesting but the written parts are brought down by the writing style.

Buy it on sale (and if you bought and enjoyed Half-Life: Alyx of course). It's a nice time capsule that summarises the development process behind Alyx.

This is a must-read for Half-Life fans, and those who have been long awaiting the next game in the series. The book is an interactive experience that allows the reader to immerse themselves in the video game making process. I also highly recommend the game for anyone that is curious about the various components of virtual reality. The digital book describes how Valve navigates intimate problems and tackles issues from design and conception to debugging and deadline overhauling. There are many one on one interviews with industry legends, and much more hidden and never before seen content. Congratulations to the team at Valve for their success.

An interactive book about the development of Half-Life: Alyx and Valve's internal problems that prevented them from shipping games from 2012 to 2020. I didn't care much for the Half-Life: Alyx stuff, but it was really interesting to learn why Half-Life 3 or Left 4 Dead 3 have been so hard to finalize. With Source 2 finally getting a lot of non-VR field tests via Counter-Strike 2, I hope that the rest of the decade will be more productive for Valve.
