One of the source 1 engines amazing traits is its incredibly long life, its still being used and loved today, and while I'm expecting it Source 2 to have equally as long life, I hope they put a lot of time and effort into the graphics of it. Yes, Yes, I know, graphics doesn't make a great game. But come on, wouldn't it be amazing to play valve games on an engine with those graphics. I hope Source 2 is At least at that level or better.
