We are all election loosers on this blessed day

Was thinking of adding those but wanted to keep it HL specific. But yes the Portals are must plays. Pretty much perfect games. I remember watching the ending of 2 over and over because it was so dope.

Interesting, I haven’t actually played HL1 but I enjoyed BM a lot, and figured it’d be the better reccomendation for someone just getting into HL.

What parts of the atmosphere do you think BM missed? When I watched videos of HL1 gameplay it seemed that BM did a great job having a graphically updated but similar vibe

Imo the best enjoyment to time ratio is:

1. Black Mesa (the Xen level at the end was redone and extended compared to in HL1 and it’s cool but if it starts to drag just move on)

2. HL2 (main game)

3. HL2: EP1 start it but maybe skip and watch a playthrough if you get bored

4. HL2: EP2

5. HL Alyx, if you can play it on a decent headset. DO NOT MOD IT TO PLAY IT WITH MOUSE/KB it will be extremely boring since it’s designed for VR

Have fun, there’s simply nothing else like Half-Life games

TIL the word “interlocutor”

“1. a person who takes part in a dialogue or conversation.”
