True, but I feel he makes some good points about how those things work within the context of the Half Life 2 games. Maybe not the most revolutionary games ever. But Valve really put those elements together masterfully. At least in my opinion. These and Half Life 1 are really some of the few linear FPS games that I love.
It looks really good and is a nice, condensed slice of what I love about the Half-Life 2 games. Some combat, some puzzle solving, some weird lore about eating alien leeches (gross) , and a
Half-Life 2 is part of a greater mythology and is internally consistent with the bigger game story. Basically the short version is that at the end of Half-Life Gordon became the unwilling tool of the G-Man and the G-Man sees fit to place Gordon into the Half-Life 2 timeline knowing full well what he'll do (suggesting that by fighting the Combine you are fulfilling the G-Man's nefarious wishes.) Half Life 2 was not made for VR and it shows IMO. The pace of the game felt all wrong when I played it trough Garry's Mod and it would require all sorts of updates or rework for it to look and feel good in VR. Compare it to Half Life Alyx and it's night and day in difference. However I suggest you try it, it is interesting to experience it in VR :) Inverse tested the method out on a Quest 2 and were able to get Half-Life: Alyx running on it without issues. All that stands between players and wireless freedom is a good PC, a USB-C cable, and
The Half-Life 2: VR Mod entered its beta phase a couple of weeks ago and is already getting good reviews, even though there is still much work to be done. Kotaku says it's "almost too good to be
Odd Performance Issues with Half-Life 2. To preface, here are my specs: GTX 1060 6GB, Intel i7-4280K 3.70 GHz, 16.0 GB Ram, Windows 7 64-bit. I run the game at 3860x2440 in full screen, and just got out of Ravenholm. The game for the most part has been smooth, but in certain areas I'm experiencing substantial frame drops.
Fakefactory's Cinematic Mod has long been one of the modern classics - just like its template. Whoever installs the modification breathes new life into Half-Life 2 and its episodes 1 & 2 graphically. The gloomy look may not suit everyone's taste, but the improvements beyond black level and contrast are obvious.
Half Life 2. As good as Half Life 1 is, Half Life 2 is one of my favorite games of all time. The bigger emphasis on story, characters and atmosphere are what make Half Life 2 the better game in my opinion. The overall setting is a lot more interesting, and I like the all the different environments you go to.
OyyJu.
