The wait is nothing, though I guess the definition of “active development”, publicly confirmed development etc… To my knowledge HL3 has been in some form of development since, HL2, but
Comment on The wait for GTA 6 has now been so long it must be some kind of record - right? [Eurogamer]

The wait for Half-Life 3 is longer.

Rockstar has repeatedly reminded us that GTA6 is in active development. Valve hasn't even mentioned HL3 in a very long time, I think it's safe to conclude it's dead and has been dead for a while now.

Tbf, I dont think they’ve ever explicitly mentioned it being in development – unless you technically mean Episode 3

Anything with a 3 in the title from Valve would cause waves at this point, doesn’t matter what the words prior are.

I think a game has to actually release to break this record. And in the article, Purchese points out that the current record holder is Duke Nukem Forever, while Beyond Good & Evil 2 might break the record if it ever actually comes out.

What was the wait for Diakantana?

Announced in 1997, released in 2000. Might've seemed like a lot at the time, but barely a footnote by today's standards.
