It turns out that Valve does know how to count to 3 and is planning to make 3 full VR games.
Valve's founder told Eurogamer:
“When I say we’re building three games, we’re building three full games, not experiments.”
Gabe Newell didn't provide much information regarding the games other than that they're in development using Valve's own Source 2 and Unity.
Newell concluded with his own thoughts on cheaper VR, low-res, the future of VR, and Valve's philosophy on changing how games are played:
“If you took the existing VR systems and made them 80 per cent cheaper there’s still not a huge market, right? There’s still not an incredibly compelling reason for people to spend 20 hours a day in VR. Once you’ve got something, the thing that really causes millions of people to be excited about it, then you start worrying about cost reducing. It’s sort of the old joke that premature cost reduction is the root of all evil.”
“We’re actually going to go from this weird position where VR right now is kind of low-res, to being in a place where VR is actually higher res than just about anything else, with much higher refresh rates than you’re going to see on either desktops or phones. You’ll actually see the VR industry sort of leapfrogging pretty much any other display technology in terms of those characteristics. It’s probably not obvious from the first generation of products, but you’ll start to see that happening like in 2018-2019.”
“If you’re not failing then you’re probably not exploring the potential space wide enough. We’re sort of optimistic, right? We think VR is going right. It’s going in a way that’s consistent with our expectations. We’re also comfortable with the idea that it may turn out to be a complete failure, simply because if you’re not trying to do things that might fail, you’re not actually probably trying to do anything very interesting at all.”
