I finished Half Life 2 a few days ago, and am currently going through episode 1. What mods would you recommend for a fresh replay of the game?

Of course I'll probably replay it after finishing episode 2.

[small HLA spoilers] The gman sequence at the end of HLA seems oddly familiar to me

Maybe it's me misremembering a very similar sequence from Minerva Metastasis, but I swear I played a mod that had a capsule holding gman prisoner like that, years before HLA came out.

Half-Life 3 leaks quite literally saved me from ending it all

From the start, my english is not great so I am sorry for the mistakes.

In the last 2 years, a lot happend. I lost my best friend in a car crash and my cat died. I couldn't recover for almost a year. I was going forth and back about ending it all because of those events but I didn't.

Not too far, just 2 months ago it just started hitting me again, the flashbacks from the car crash and all. I couldn't sleep because of it. I just pulled out a knife from the kitchen and just started twitching. Thinking about the misery I am in. Thank god I was working remotely, I didn't want people to witness the situation I was in. Anyway, in the end I didn't do it and woke up tomorrow to work at my PC. When I booted the PC, I saw news about Half-Life 3 leaks by Gabe Follower and Tyler. I was kinda shocked, was it really happening? Half-Life 3 is actually coming out?

If I didn't see those leaks, I was probably going to end it all with a gun. When I woke up that day I just imagined shooting myself in the head non-stop and when I saw the leaks I just felt a glimps of hope and a little reason to live. After that day I called a Psychologist, booked a date and I started recovering slowly, I am still not totally okay but I don't feel like ending it all in the tiniest stuff so that is something.

By the way, when I got in the car crash the first time I didn't get help at all. It was just the crashed bones and the little help from the hospital until I was able to move on my own. Nothing mentally. If I got help the first time this accured, it would probably just be a bad memory instead of making myself suffer for 2 years straight.

Does anyone have the Half Life 2 Overcharged 2.0 files for download?

The links to DL it were removed from ModDB. Does anyone have it that is willing to upload it somewhere and share?

It's a piece of Half Life memes/history now that I'd like to personally archive.

Should I but Alyx now or wait until the winter sale?

I’m gonna grab myself a vr headset for christmas so I figured I might as well get it while it’s cheap. However, should I get it now for around 20 dollars, or wait like 4 days until the winter sale? Are the winter sales even any better?

10 years and I didn't realize the Combine in "full force" is not the same one we fought as it was when it first attack on the seven hours.

Did Military combine left after Earth was taken over and leave like 25% of numbers in there?

I got doutb about alyx and gordon relantionship

Yeah, maybe alyx has a interest to gordon

but, does gordon has a interest in alyx?

he knows her since she was a baby

maybe he considers her a niece?????

the picture he had in his locker in half life was maybe her?

gordon and eli have a close friendship, I think, so maybe that is the way Gordon sees her?

like a cool uncle????

im thinking this too much?

I made an oil painting of HalfLife 2

This is 11x14” on canvas, and man this one wasn’t necessarily a challenge but a chore due to the sheer detail of the train station plaza. I’m obsessed with the gravity gun here, the orange on the interior pops so nicely. What do you guys think?

I like Half-Life 1 more

Everything that made HL1 great is missing from HL2. This is coming from someone who has loved HL1 and played it numerous times.

-Lacks any and all of the Xen worlds

-Doesn't have experimental weapons

-So many driving stages. I know we all praise HL2 for its physics, but your car or boat gets stuck on every little pebble. Its worse when a piece of wood gets stuck underneath the wheels and it won't go away

-Lacks otherworld creatures beyond our human comprehension

-I loved the gameplay in HL1. I don't like how much the ammo on weapons was nerfed, especially with the RPG and grenades. 3 rockets is nothing, it just discourages you from using it. Pretty much all the sections where you are forced to use RPG has infinite ammo cache.
