Evaluation

Half-Life: Source is a remastered port of the original 1998 Half-Life, released on June 1, 2004. The store description presents it as a finished, enhanced version of a classic game — there is no mention of planned expansions, additional content, or ongoing development work. All developer communications are maintenance patches from 2013, covering bug fixes and platform support additions (Linux, Mac OS X, and the SteamPipe content system). The last recorded developer communication was on November 4, 2013. There have been no developer posts of any kind since that date. The game has no DLC listed, no roadmap, and no announcements of future content at any point in its history. It was released as a complete, standalone product and has been treated as such throughout its lifecycle. The 2013 patch activity represents a maintenance pass to modernize the game's platform compatibility, not the beginning of an ongoing content cycle.
