Laidlaw: Half-Life 2’s Alyx Works Because ‘She Gives You Back Emotion’

Gamasutra had an interview with Laidlaw and fellow Valve writer Erik Wolpaw. Laidlaw made some comments on Gordon Freeman's development as a lead character and how it has more to do with his external interactions rather than internal mechanisms. So we were trying to do a thing where it wasn...
