Why is it the perfect time?Hopefully it's true and that they're using the Alyx Source 2 engine which would make sense and is the perfect time to do it!
Because it’s exactly 3333 days ago Half-Life 2 released.Why is it the perfect time?
At this point I'd rather get Portal 3. Heck I'd settle for Portal 1+2 4K/60+ Remaster on PS5.
Isn't Tyler McVicker notoriously unreliable?
Valve has provided IGN with a comment about the reported Half-Life shooter-strategy game:
"It’s good to view [Valve News Network content creator Tyler McVicker's] coverage with a healthy dose of skepticism. We think it’s important to reiterate that while Tyler is a passionate gamer, he has no inside information about what goes on at Valve. As you know, any important announcements on projects that we are or aren’t working on will come directly from us."
Well, that "Half-Life shooter/strategy" game he was talking about there ended up being Deadlock, which at the time just happened to be set in the Half-Life universe, and it shows..Valve Reportedly Working on a Half-Life Shooter-Strategy Game Tailored for Steam Deck [Update] - IGN

I think the Half-Life style of single player FPS is basically dead at this point, replaced with open world games and military shooters. So if Half-Life 3 came out it wouldn't have any direct competitors.might be an hot take, but i don't really care for half life 3 at this point.
what made 1 and 2 great in terms of gameplay has been done afterwards, and in terms of story the ending of the episodes killed any interest i had in it
i'm sure it would be a great game, but i don't need it to happen anymore
