![]() My nickname when I first started at Valve in 1997 was 'old man Laidlaw'. "An outwardly obvious reason is that I'm old, or anyway oldish. "I am no longer a full or part time Valve employee, no longer involved in day-to-day decisions or operations, no longer a spokesperson for the company, no longer privy to most types of confidential information, no longer working on Valve games in any capacity," he said in an email to a fan. In addition to this, he was the lead writer for Half-Life 2 Episode 1 and 2. He was responsible for creating each game's lore. Laidlaw was the lone writer for both Half-Life 1 and 2. While prospects of Half-Life 3 ever releasing have more or less dissipated barring the odd rumour or two that ends up devolving into meme fodder, Half-Life writer Marc Laidlaw has confirmed he has retired from Valve.
