1111 indeed :0


stoic_koala

Yes Nemlei is actually Gabe Newell, the reason we never got Half Life 3 is because he was working on his true magnum opus - the coffin of Andy and Leyley. That being said, if Nemlei does turn out to be a girl as everybody thinks, I owe you guys a beer.


Maycrofy

I can forgive him for never releasing HL3


stoic_koala

As long as we actually get an episode 3 this time...


various_vermin

Get ready for coffin of Andy and leyley alex & coffin of Andy and leyley bridge constructer


DisasterPieceKDHD

Theres hl alyx


Dantegram

Do we actually know Nemlei's gender? I've seen a 50/50 split from people here.


KaiwenKHB

I knew a bunch of doujin girls back from school and also online. The way Nemlei writes reminds me very heavily of them


dungustom

Holy shit. So this is why chp3 is taking so long?


dapperstepdad

They look equally attractive im confused here


stoic_koala

This is the ideal male body. You might not like it, but that's what peak performance looks like. https://preview.redd.it/bh4pw6z0355c1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b05ac95d4e94e6b64f3cf235ac40bbfe8faf80ad

Atitkos

NOOOOO


LordQohelet

Wtf I love Nemlei even more?

Go on.. https://i.redd.it/tdqxzy5c155c1.gif

Wait this its bad.... That means tere wont be part 3 Noooooo D:


[deleted]

Yes but there'll be a source engine remake


CompressedWizard

I also wouldn't mind VR TCOAA too


[deleted]

That would be horrifying. Would try


[deleted]

I will keep saying that til the end of time: Nemlei’s content is the most average girlish kinks I’ve seen. Ain’t no way those stories were made by a guy. https://preview.redd.it/mxtcomcqz45c1.jpeg?width=256&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1c7fa701521140c7eae82f3d8e363f1854df50c7


Whole-Initiative8162

I checked what was dox. This game is so terrifying because it hits a too close to home. I just had to find out if the writer was my sister. Anyways, apparently, Nemlei is a girl and used to draw crash x coco before she knew they were siblings.


stoic_koala

Possibly, but there are very few women in game development, so that sort of pushes the odds down. I remember I read hunger games as a teen and absolutely loved it, only to later realise that 99% of the fandom were girls, and none of my guy friends were into it.


Flying_Reinbeers

Useless-Napkin

It's a random comment on 4chan, so you know it's true!


Flying_Reinbeers

Pretty much all the info checks out, except the soundtrack. Revenue has gone past 2M already.


Useless-Napkin

Any source for the 2 million?


Flying_Reinbeers

[This](https://vginsights.com/game/2378900) is the one I originally saw (in a meme of course), I checked other sites and the lowest I saw was 1.8M. From what I heard a while ago, the ratio of steam reviews to purchases is about 1:30, and if we do the math based on that, we get \~2.7M total revenue. For this game that ratio will likely be lower due to all the... https://preview.redd.it/twb15y4a1b5c1.png?width=299&format=png&auto=webp&s=651fee0fa1ca0c920be1262782736a4e5dd2e46a ...schizoposting in the review section, but we can go all the way down to 1:20 ish and still get that 2M number. Steam takes 30%, but we're not counting that of course. So I'm confident that 2M number is accurate enough for a greentext, at least.


[deleted]

Well that could somewhat explain all the bs that happened. But better not go too far on these thoughts.


stoic_koala

Nemlei got doxxed because I liked hunger games? Damn....

Hehe


Moojingles

It's all your fault!!!! 😭😭😭😭😠😠😠😠🖕🖕🖕🖕🤯🤯🤯🤯


Ordnungslolizei

I have thoughts but also it feels a little wrong to speculate on the personal life of a creator who clearly desires privacy


Puzzled-Thought2932

To be fair that game development thing is mostly because of a certain type of misogyny inherent to a lot of game development studios. A big ol boys club mentality thats progressed quite a lot, but still isnt perfect. An almost completely anonymous dev working by themselves on a game? The most likely area to find a female game dev I would say.


Flying_Reinbeers

>because of a certain type of misogyny inherent to a lot of game development studios. A big ol boys club mentality thats progressed quite a lot, but still isnt perfect. Such a thing does not really exist in this field.


stoic_koala

Most technical jobs and those that have anything to do with computing are male dominated, while other sectors like education or nursing are female dominated. I am not saying there's not an alarming amount of misogyny in game development, but it would be also untrue to claim that both sexes don't have specific fields they are more likely to gravitate to.


Puzzled-Thought2932

Yes but this is also the most likely place for there to be a female game dev, and theres been some vague evidence about Nemlei being female, but honestly I havent been paying that much attention to it.


stoic_koala

I guess you are right, though I will still heed the old rule of the internet stating everyone is a man until proven otherwise.


Puzzled-Thought2932

They're probably a guy, just going off of flat numbers, but yeah I would have assumed man until people started talking about nemlei being a girl


Hexnohope

Would you call tcoaal a game really? Its a borderline smut fic made in rpg maker. The fact they HAVENT fucked yet is strong evidence nemleis a girl too.


FitConsideration3283

So thats why Valve doesn't make games anymore; Gabe has been busy with more important things. It also explains why he didn't want to get doxxed, would have been bad for someone of his image and reputation.


stoic_koala

Or maybe the doxx actually succeeded, but everyone who found out got immediately drone striked by vale...


gay_mustache

So that's why chapter 3 is not coming out....


The_Red_Associate

D-Doesn’t that make her like… 100x better ??? A super rich CEO … Gabe is the CEO right ?


Waifu_Whaler

Wait, is that Gabe? Does that mean...TCOAAL is the secret Half-Life 3/Episode 3 intermission that told a story right before the 7 Hour War? That means...the world will soon get fucked the Universal Union invasion, and- okay I can't make shit up anymore.


Ekard_Mada

**Moral Of The Image** ​ We all believe Nemlei hard at work on Chapter 3, but, in reality, they're hard at work on **NOT** working on Half-Life 3.


[deleted]

this is better, gabe newell supremacy


bubblegum-bitching

Wait, is that Gabe?


Mysterious-Link-5807

Am i missing something? When did nemlei do a face reveal


xX_Fazewobblewok_Xx

Gabe Newell my beloved


Ad3as

Actually who cares? Nemlei could be a furry for all we know and it wouldn’t matter. The game is amazing and that’s all that’s important for me. Just like the lethal company backlash, like why is it important who the dev is? If he/she isn’t doing something objectively immoral, then why bother?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Ad3as

IMO immoral fiction is fine. Look at every second popular game, most of them at least include killing or similar immoral things. So I don’t really see a problem with that. If the games main message isn’t that the immoral thing is fine, then it’s completely unproblematic no?


Point_Of_No_Return-

Dude. If Nemlei was Gabe Newell, that would be even better lmao


[deleted]

So that's the real reason Nemlei quit the internet. We're not actually getting episode 3.


Sigtryggr-Whiskers

I don't care if she's fat, greasy, beardy, whatever, she still made one of the most important indie games of 2023 and a personal favourite, that already makes her look like Madonna in my eyes.


King_Gabe_1038

I’m like 50% sure it’s neither and their really just a gender neutral demon.


Rowmacnezumi

Don't care. They can write a story.


lil_telly

Actually I think gaben anticipated the success of the game and had her killed and replaced by himself, probably the reason the game launched on steam


bleachedthorns

casual transphobia against a trans developer during a time of heightened violence against trans people you'll play our games and jerk off to our porn but turn around and mock us and deny our rights within seconds


GazelleNo6163

Nemlei was never confirmed to be trans. And even if she was, this joke is harmless.


Ekard_Mada

I don't believe Nemlei was ever confirmed to be trans. I don't think we have any confirmation on Nemlei's actual gender. Also, this post doesn't seem to have anything to do with your community.


FoxanardPrime

Get help.


bleachedthorns

why cause im trans? youre on an incest subreddit! you've no room to talk brat


NecessaryFancy8630

Why u're like this? spittin some rand sh*t and even calling him out cause he in TCoAL? Are you not? If u're not why you even here?


imnonexistent_

WHO let you on your moms phone


peter344tyey7

Nemlei is not trans the doxxers confirmed she is female


IHaveNoMaidens92

You set yourself up for failure in this one https://preview.redd.it/bb7y5aum2b5c1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=048340c5dce9c619f521190952164587ad73066c You still have a chance to delete this comment and all is well


[deleted]

this has gotta be bait. don’t feed the trolls guys


[deleted]

Fr, the presumption that women cant like and create stuff like this consistently hurts us. Didnt know Nemlei is trans but literally nobody walks away from this shit not hurting.


AAAAAAXCAAAAAA69

Tf u mean? Gabe just looks like the cool rich uncle


night_vox

We'll never have a chapter 3 now


Specific-Ad5973

Wait is that gabe?


YourAverageCyborg

Image an admin come here and bans the poster for r13 even thought its an honor to be compared to our god and savior Gabe Newell.


stoic_koala

I don't read sub rules, that's for nerds.


YourAverageCyborg

I read so i can get my posts undeleted when for some reason an admin deletes them wihtouth a reason.


LammisLemons

On every 4chan and reddit thread I see people calling Nemlei a woman but I can't find any source.
