I agree. This sounds objective as fuck, but Hl1 feels "lighter" to play. Half-Life 2 always seems like a bit of a time commitment, or that it's atmosphere is more heavy. Half-Life 1 feels more arcady and more fun to play.
>>
>>315239629
The original Half-Life definitely has a different feel to it, I think. I'd say it's a bit more solid, as well. Some stuff feels really dated, particularly the visuals and animation (though the aesthetics hold up). Still, I think it's simplicity is to it's benefit.

If for no other reason, I have argued to preserve you for a time. While I believe a civil servant like yourself understands the importance of … discretion, my employers are not quite so trusting and rather than continually subject you to the irresistible human temptation of telling all, we have decided to … convey you somewhere where you can do no possible harm, and where no harm can come to you.

Doctor Freeemaaan. I realize this moment may not be the most convenient for a 'heart-to-heart', but I had to wait until your... 'friends' were otherwise occupied. Hm.

There was a time they cared nothing for Miss Vance... When their only experience of humanity was a crowbar coming at them down a steel corridor. When I plucked her from Black Mesa, I acted in the face of objections that she was a mere child and of no practical use to anyone. I have learned to ignore such naysayers when... quelling them... was out of the question.

Still, I am not one to squander my investments... and I remain confident she was worth far more than the initial... appraisal. That's why I must now extract from you some small repayment owed for your own survival. See her safely to White Forest, Doctor Freeman. I wish I could do more than keep an eye on you, but I have agreed to abide by certain... restrictions. Mmm.

Well... now... listen carefully, my dear. When you see your father relay these words: Prepare for unforeseen consequences.

I liked on a rail, but I agree it went a little bit too long. It was Xen that made me mad beyond belief, the platforming was a flaw in hl1, and Xen just took that and cranked it up while having the worst bosses in the series. That spider with the giant testicle was poor and the final boss was shite.

>>315244007
I think I might be the only person who didn't have a problem with the Xen platforming in HL1. It wasn't any more difficult than any other 3D platformer at the time, and Xen itself was beautiful. You spend all this time in a claustrophobic underground base, and right at the climax you're hopping around asteroids suspended in nebulae and organic-looking alien factories. That shit was the best.
>>
>>315244130
>The Body of the Many
System Shock 2 final boss was worse than Nihilanth. And both feel like really similar experiences.

But at least System Shock 2 ends up on a higher note than hl1 mainly because Shodan's reality bending shenanigans while Half Life ends up with that shitastic boss.

Still, those two games are some of my favorites of all time because it's always about the journey not the destination and both SS2 and HL1 offers one hell of ride that can be replayed many, many times

>>315244284
Some of the best HL mods were just variants on HLDM, like Oz or Cold Ice. Then you had wacky shit like Bumper Cars that used HL characters.

The Specialists was great, though. I always wish someone combined Action Half-Life, The Opera, and The Specialists together, because they each had something good that the others didn't have. I wish someone would make another game like that.
>>
>>315244431
I won't argue about how beatiful Xen was. it's just that I didn't like the platforming at all since residual processing happened like 20 or 30 minutes before arriving Xen. So at that point I just want to keep exploiting the wonderful combat that the game offers while being on an alien world that visually is blowing my mind.

I've played Combine Destiny. It was pretty alright at the parts where you were with other soldiers and when you blasted rebels, but besides that I didn't feel much for it.

I can tell you how sad I am that CD2 will never be finished. That shit looked like it was going to have Republic Commando squad commands and other cool features like the deployable manhacks, drivable APC, and night-vision mode.

I've played Human Error which was kind of fun, but really felt... off. I'm not sure how to put it, but it just didn't feel right. Sequel to it never, as well.

I want another game where you play as Barney.
Especially since we don't know what happened to him after Episode 1. So you could set it around the same time as Episode 2. And do the same mechanic as Blue Shift where you replace armor vests, since Barney just wears Civil Protection gear.

It could also be interesting that Valve could format it differently because Barney actually talks.

From what I remember hearing, they had to rip a lot of the custom models and guns out because they'd have to get permission from the people who made those things again.

Aside from that, the removal of things like the weight system and player-collision was probably just on them being dumb. Now that I think about it, didn't Synergy also have classes in certain maps?

http://hosting.cecak.cz/forum-modifikace/hl1/index.php?text=mod&modifikace=invasion

The Half-Quake series is fantastic, my favorite. The first game is kind of an obstacle course mappack with a hellish difficulty. The sequels though, Amen and Sunrise, take on an identity all their own and are phenomenal.

Yeah but that was when Ross Scott was stuck in hell at Machinima and they fucked him over. He finished the last several dozen episodes in the span of like a month once he changed his situation, and he just got a flood of donations which he turned into a new Game Dungeon basically every day for a week. I don't think he really WANTS to do it, but he definitely could (and quickly) with his situation turned around a bit now.

I think he's too focused on his "THE MOVIE" pet project he has going though, that he talked about in his beg-a-thon video

>>315249313
Because gordon was built up to be this jesus figure. The man who singlehandedly stopped the black mesa incident. They also don't know he was in stasis; they probably just assumed he was displaced when everything went down

It's why everyone knows who you are, even though you've never met. What's more, is the reason no one explains shit to you - they just assume you already know, because no one (besides *maybe* Eli) knows about the Gman's Stasis, so to them, you'd *have* to have already lived through everything
>>
>>315249491
Breen does.

>I have good reason to believe that in the intervening years, he was in a state that precluded further development of covert skills

And I think Eli probably knows. The first thing he says to you in person is that you haven't changed one iota. Plus Eli knows about the Gman.
