How can one game be this perfect?

It was good because it was different at the time. Now it's the root cause for all shooters being linear hallways.

Which was good.

That's like blaming Pachelbel for the overuse of the four-chord structure. Canon in D is still brilliant, famm.
funny you mention this op
for the past several weeks, having my first experience with this game. been in my library for like 7 years and still never played it until recently
desu its good. i think its aged well despite what people say. environmentally looks amazing.
gotta say, getting p boring though and having trouble finishing it. sry op
it's far from perfect, pretty boring actually
Remember that part where you had to collect all the bricks from a room in order to advance?
There were just about enough of them to build primitive stairs so that you can jump up the ledge.
I love smart puzzles such as this one.
HL1 is way better.

hl2 aged really fucking badly, especially the episodes are on par with call of duty campaigns as far as gameplay/story ratio goes

Found the cellist.
The gravity gun is woefully underused after ravenholm, there's just not enough debree. Especially in places where it makes sense like the anticitizen one chapter or whole of nova prospect.
Great scenery and art direction though. Being slavshit myself a lot of the environments reminded me of home.

This is autistic
HL1 is perfect, HL2 is is 8/10
>>334958745
And correct.
>>334957998
why even compare the 2? bioshock is babbys first cinematic FPS
I actually found it boring. It's too lonely feeling of a game. I'll give that it has some cool gimmick levels like the bug thing nectar in the sand, but I found the game lacking ambiance.
I liked Doom 3 more than Half-Life 2. True Story.

Same.
I played HL1 and 2 for the first time a year or two ago and played them both again recently, and I gotta say that both of them are really fun games. The games are linear, yes, but it still feels like a big open world. The gameplay is simple, but you still have all the tools you need to get shit done. The puzzles are a little aged but they're still innovative. Its not a particularly difficult game but that isnt necessarily a bad thing. And the story is pretty intriguing. The reason im most disappointed about no HL3 is because we'll never get any closure on the narrative. I enjoy playing these games quite a bit, and they will always be some of my favorites.

Come out at the right time with the right tech.

What did he mean by this?
>>334959416
i like FEAR more than half life 2
>>334955402
It really is perfectly mediocre, I'll give it that.
Both are really good. HL2 aged better, I think the face tech that Valve put in is a big part of that. Hell NPCs in HL2 look and are animated better than ones in the latest Bethesda games.
Also, the Xen part of HL1 was good.
