Hey bisher, how is the game? I bought this in early access a few years ago and only played a little. Now its more or less finished so I imagine it probably looks much different now. I recently installed it but I'm trying to get through HL2 again first.

IMHO it feels like a mod more than a game. The early game is great, but the farther you go, the more it felt like a drag. Especially Xen, where I just couldn't take it anymore after levels took over an hour to complete and I just skipped whole sections.

By far the biggest purchasing regret of 2019

I really liked Xen chapters in Black Mesa. It felt like completely new adventure. And it nicely connected to the lore of Half Life 2 - the way they portrayed the Vortigaunts (they will be only hostile when under influence of the Controllers - you can finsih the Xen levels without killing any Vorts, in fact you will get an achievement for that, just take out the Controllers instead).
Also the fight with "ball-sack-spider" is epic and lasts for at least an hour while you play hide and seek with her/it.

I personally enjoyed it way more than original Xen levels, and to be honest it may be my new favority chapter now.

I see you struck gold in your first picture Bisher. Is that the objective, to recover the world's supply of toilet paper and then distribute it freely to all the less fortunate? A 21 century Robin Hood I suppose?

Gentlemen. I'm enjoying this more than I thought I would, it's really sucked me in so far

He he, yes one sheet for everyone Blade_Meister. Two ply

I absolutely loved, and played all the Half Life games to death!
