I don't know about you but manipulating a past dramatic event in the series just to please some fans makes it cheesy for me. Plus the fact that time travel brings only contradictions and inconsistencies to the scenario of a game. I know Half-Life falls into the sci-fi genre but I was happy that until recently they had stayed clear of such concept as time travel. Can we be affected by a dramatic event in the series anymore? Besides, it should have been a much more difficult and costly endeavor to travel in time and for a much bigger purpose; for example, preventing the Resonance Cascade maybe? Not for G-man to do whatever he wants in the universe like it's a piece of cake. He is practically a GOD now. I used to think of Advisors as formidable foes but now it seems to me that they are only a part of scheme, G-man's scheme.
I believe after writer Marc Laidlaw left the studio, they would never be the same.
