вЂњTo really bring about a positive shift, governments and donors need to combine short-term funding with longer-term flexible, multi-year funding so that we can focus on building resilience, so that countries and communities are stronger in the future.вЂќ Children under five are particularly vulnerable to a lack of nutritious food, which can affect long-term growth and development,вЂќ said Marie-Pierre Poirier, UNICEF Regional Director for West and Central Africa. вЂњChildren in many parts of the region are entering the most difficult period of the year with the next harvest several months away. On current trends the situation will worsen in the coming months. Without scaled-up humanitarian interventions, 1.2 million children will face severe wasting this year in the Democratic Republic of Congo, with major needs also in Ethiopia (1.2 million), northern Nigeria (671,890), Niger (491,822), Chad (348,160), Somalia (330,000), South Sudan (300,000), Mali (309,821), and Burkina Faso (179,252). UNICEF is urging governments and development partners to seize the opportunity of the summit and the AUвЂ™s Year of Nutrition to combine scaled-up life-saving responses with prevention and the anticipation of crises through multi-sector investment to build resilience. Half-Life 3 could easily feature a VR option or mode, but not make it required in any way.MALABO, EQUATORIAL GUINEA, - An increasing number of children across AfricaвЂ™s protracted crisis areas вЂ“ from the Sahel to the Horn of Africa - will be exposed to severe wasting as the impacts of insecurity, COVID-19, poor harvests, the Ukraine crisis and global food price rises hit vulnerable families.ДЄs the вЂlean seasonвЂ™ gets underway in the Sahel and with drought in the Horn of Africa pushing the number of children with severe wasting from 1.7 million to 2 million, the African Union (AU) has called an Extraordinary Humanitarian Summit and Pledging Conference this week in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea. At the same time, though, it's unlikely that Valve would create VR tech and never use it again. Because of that, it's unlikely that a big game like Half-Life 3 would be a VR exclusive.

It's a huge discrepancy, and although VR's popularity is one the rise, the technology is still simply to expensive for many players to invest in. On launch day the number of viewers on Twitch was nearly ten times the number of people actually playing Half-Life: Alyx.

However, the problem with Half-Life: Alyx is that there's a severely limited user-base that can play it. Valve has clearly harnessed the technology like few are able to, and that expertise could easily be put to use again. With another Half-Life game coming at some point, could it also be in VR? The most impressive thing is that Alyx is a full-fledged Half-Life game, clocking in around 10 hours. Valve started experimenting with a VR game in 2015, and the fruits of their labor are finally paying off. Half-Life: Alyx is a great showcase for the potential of VR, and it's one of the best experiences you can find on any VR platform. With Gordon returning that certainly suggests a Half-Life 3, rather than a spin-off.

The final scene of the game is played from the perspective of Gordon, as Elie hands the hero a crowbar and says they have work to do.В With Alyx now trapped in stasis by G-Man, it's going to be up to Gordon, Eli, and Dog to save her. G-Man takes Alyx forward in time to the end of Episode 2, where she kills the Combine Advisor and saves her father, Eli Vance. From here Half-Life: Alyx completely retcons the ending of Half-Life 2: Episode 2. G-Man recruits Alyx as a replacement for his rebellious employee, Gordon. Although she thinks Gordon Freeman is trapped inside, it's actually the supernatural entity called G-Man. Half-Life: Alyx takes place in between the first Half-Life and Half-Life 2, but actually has some massive implications on the overall story.В The new game takes place in City 17, and partway through the game, Alyx breaks into a massive vault hanging above the city.
