Good game till you get to Xen then it promptly goes to shit.

First chapter of Xen is alright, the rest is dogshit.

Overrated mediocrity that is worse than most old-school FPS.

The whole game feels like "piecemeal situations: the game". The monsters don't compliment each other, so you end up with 'the marine part' 'the female assassin part' 'the alien grunt part' instead of situations where you fight mixed groups of enemies that support each other.

Half-Life's level design is also worse than other FPS. It takes place in Black Mesa, this massive facility, but since it's completely linear, it doesn't take any advantage of that like Hexen, Strife and System Shock did with their hub worlds. At the same time, Half-Life also lacks the variety other FPS had with their unique self-contained levels, nor does it have something like Unreal's epic journey across an alien planet. It's the worst of both worlds.

t. pleb who has never actually played the game

anyone else think the original models looked waay better than the blueshift ones with more polys? I hate that they're on by default in the steam version

Xen is the best part of the game you pleb. I bet you had difficulty with the long jump mechanic

see hlniggers

go to bed, grandpa

t.zoomer that never played a real retro fps

Kill yourself zoomer
Kill yourself samefag, you’re not fooling anyone with that opinion

great set pieces, fun shooting. never gets repetitive.

So what happened to the Borealis? Who is the D man?

Came in here to say this. Classic models in software 640x480 on a CRT > HD models in OpenGL on a 1080p+ LCD.

I miss old vidya

There are certainly good games in those franchises. HL still beats them all though

why are unreal fans so insecure?

MUH CORRIDORS
MUH SETPIECES
MUH BULLET SPONGES
MUH STORY MUH MODS
MUH REALISM

there is one a good reason why /vr/ doesnt like hl zoomers.

Calm down kiddo

I enjoyed playing Half-life Decay with a friend, good times.

Bloodfag's here again.

What's the issue? Do you want your enemies to go down in one hit? You realize both you and the enemy have health right? Would you want more realism where you also can go down in one hit like a real human too?

Why are Yea Forumskiddies so offended by Half-Life

>Bullet sponge enemies with lack of flinch. Not only does this make the guns feel unsatisfying, it also means that you're inevitably going to tank damage when exchanging with the sponges which is shit. Their AI is also retarded, they'll run in random directions for no reason, doesn't even matter if you're shooting them in the face, they might just stop and stand there in front of you just 'cause.

>That webm is probably playing on hard which does nothing but turn everything into a damage sponge. Very unfun. Half-Life started the lame trend of Normal being the only skill level worth playing on. before HL, higher skill meant a faster paced game, not a slower one.

Reminder this is the same autist in this thread

They are eternally seething they weren’t alive when it came out nor were they alive during their height of popularity

He's doing the god's work.
Fuck off, Resetera

The autist spamming the WEBMs is the same guy or the OP?

Fuck Ion Maiden and fuck Resetera niggers.

except retro fps gamers hated what hl did to the genre. nice try zoomers.

I love Xen, I don't know why everyone gives it shit. Low grav antics plus fun alien minibosses with that cool atmosphere.

When did Yea Forums start to hate Half Life?

Attached: 1507323600764.png (828x1322, 1.93M)

when it became cool to hate it

it was always hated

When they realized Halo was better

Show evidence of when it was hated by Yea Forums that hasn't been in the past 6 years. This is the same as the Undertale hate immediately after it got popular

Attached: 1507360303493.png (1056x1054, 116K)

Both half life and halo are decline garbage.

No one actually called anything retro back then retard zoomer. And there were 40 year old Doom fans gushing over HL when it came out. You weren’t even alive then. Stop speaking.

overrated shit

Eh no it wasn't.

>sven coop 2019
>half of the servers are """hardcore""" one-life checkpoint systems where a headcrab bite can take a chunk out of an M1 Abrams. Most of the time is spent having the entire playerbase get dabbed on by a single marine and then wathcing those that survived all fall to their deaths off a ladder
>the other half is """XP""" servers which are essentially god mode for whoever put in enough time to grind. Expect to have everyone jump on the boss like a loose fumble and mug him for his lunch money with only crowbars
>the only "acceptable" servers (which are really just varied maps of all shapes and sizes) are filled with third-worlders

It ain't what it used to be. Have fun replaying the base games + They Hunger ad nauseam.

Based finally someone sane
Doom fans hated half life underage

when some autist decided he needed to hate Half Life

No they didn’t. I’m a Doom fan as well and loved Half Life and where it took the genre. It was an improvement over everything. Stop speaking about a time you weren’t even alive during. lol

keep praising this game and pretending you are retro gamers. you are not fooling anyone.
this game was the cod/halo of its time.

Still one of my favorite series, even tho being a Half Life fan nowdays is borderline masochistic. Fuck nuValve and their production model, it's all so tiresome.

kys, I was here 2015 and there was lots of hate

extremely dated
2 mins of gameplay and 10 mins of unskippable scripted events
ruined pc gaming for nearly 2 decades now

opposing force > blueshift >HL1 >episode 2 > HL2 > eating glass > episode 1

based zoomers will still defend the game tho.

>You can't even aim up in oldschool fps garbage like doom
Who said anything about Doom? Half-Life doesn't hold up compared to its contemporarities where you could aim, e.g. Unreal and Quake.

And at any rate, the 'you can't aim up' argument is irrelevant since everyone now plays Doom in a sourceport where you can aim up.
