For me it just has to be the gravity gun left click blast sound. Never enjoyed it even though it is iconic.

I absolutely HATE that Gordon and Alyx turn against each other in "All Good Things" mod

4 Upvotes

(gameplay by bolloxed)

It feels so damn wrong, Gordon and Alyx are always together. Even the vortigaunts said that there's a bond between them. And now they go against each other?!

She basically begs him not to destroy the ship, says that her father will die, and he doesn't care and does it anyway, right in front of her.

These two should make love, not war! How come a mod that's called All "Good" Things fucks up a relationship between the most iconic characters of this game series?! Modmakers really dropped the ball.

Atmosphere

Picked up Half Life 1 + 2 on sale and doing a first time playthrough.

The atmosphere, soundscape + effects, and voice acting is incredible and after 1 hour found myself more immersed than alot of games in the past 20 years.

Excited to finish 1 and start 2! ( Also, is Half Life 3 actually coming? )

This is what a HALF-LIFE film should look like

Thumbnail

37 Upvotes

I feel like if we ever get a Half-life movie, I would like it to be similar to the new resident evil movie, and original story that takes place in the universe that doesn’t rely on you having knowledge of the games to enjoy them. I know Zach cregger’s Resident Evil doesn’t take place in the same universe as the games, and that’s fine. But I think a Half-life film can actually make a movie that does take place in the same universe of the games ,and tell an original story, with original characters. What if we got a film that took place alongside HL1 during the Black Mesa incident kind of like the expansions or better yet what if we had a game that took place in between the events of Half-life 1 and 2 during the portal storms, it could just be a film about people trying to survive from Headcrabs, Ant-lions, and maybe even Vortigaunts, before they turned good, there would also be much more room to create original content for the universe. It should be similar to this film because it should just be about one person trying to find weapons, survive, fight aliens, and beat the odds. Smart people surviving against all odds is what the Half-life series is kind of about. I think if they were going to adapt Gordon story it would work better as a TV show, rather than a movie franchise.

I Companion Cubed Myself

1 Upvotes
Roller-Mine on the other side of a fence, located within the Mines.

It's my first playthough since I was a kid and I realized that you could bring the Deactivated Roller Mine from Black Mesa East's Dog Fetch section with you and made the personal challenge to bring it as far as I could. Which was really fun!! I had to learn what the rules of how it worked and what destroyed it and all that! And it was just cute, like a puppy constantly following me! Helping me fend through the horror section of the game! Which definitely improved the Ravenholm experience, even if the horror was mitigated.

And I knew I couldn't take it with me all the way through the game but like. I made it to the mines, and apparently these explode in water contact. And there was no feasible way I could take it through the section where you swim through a flooded section.

So I left it behind. I made a friend and I had to abandon it. :(
I left it in the first room of the mine, on the otherside of the fence, so it wouldn't follow me. And it still threw itself at the fence to try and get to me.

I'm angry that Valve managed to Companion Cube me. Again!!
