i'm hyped for this game and i don't have money, so if it's pay to play, then i can't play it unless someone uploads a cracked version, so pls tell me, is this game free to play?

Yes it's going to be free. Not thrilled about the fact that you would pirate it otherwise though...

Yes

why would that be assumed

this is a fangame

you shouldn't pay for any fan game

Valve would like to say otherwise..

well if valve allows it then valve allows it, if anything it's a really good move from valve to allow such a thing
nowadays they don't even seem interested in something like that

The joke was half of the games made by valve were originally mods for games that became its own game

There are hundreds of examples of fangames that should be paid for, it really depends on the franchise and the licensing rules around fangames for said franchise. Fans can be any group of people, be it some guys or a doujin circle or even a company. Fangames are not inherently worth less than the games that inspired them. See: Touhou Luna Nights.
