      i think more than amazing, incredibly incredible. i don't even know how he made his tracks like it bewilders me how he's able to make this impressive sound design
      particle storm is and still is to date, the only track that i've heard in my life that i have 0 explanation on how it was made

      Half Life 2 atmosphere is the best atmosphere in any game ever. That's why it's still relevant in 2023. This is why i played it 2 months ago and that's why i will play it again soon. Best frigging atmosphere.

    The bridge part was always that.. let that sink in part of the game for me. Realizing the world your currently walking in, the amount of death, destruction, misery and exhaustion around you. Just how bad the situation is for the human race, how much crap they had to go through and how much more trying to rebel. And the combine. Pacing together theories about the combine throughout your journey and slowly realizing just how incredibly evil it is. I can probably write an entire essay on the combine alone. If there is one game that keeps you thinking throughout its entire campaign and after, it's Half-Life

      It's also very uncanny, like there's something always lurking in the background, beyond Freeman's control and comprehension.

      Kelly Baily intentionally used the same intro soundtrack as the one that played at the very beginning of the game, when the Gman pulled you from stasis. I think it's explicitly being used this way to force the player to reflect, since if the player was listening to the intro, this would sound familiar to them, and maybe remind them of the events occurring, if only just for a moment. A momentary pause to think is all you need as the rotting, once-human infrastructure is now dominated by the alien machinery that's constantly rolling above, overhead.
      I think that lab practicum is a very complex statement and introspection into the setting at large, spoken very subtly through both the visibly rotting yet sustaining infrastructure, the visibly draining oceans, the absolute domination of the combine, and the absolute desolation imposed upon mankind in the setting.

      Not only that, Gordon woke up from stasis only knowing the last thing that happened was going to xen and killing the nihalanth to close the portal, not knowing what was to come. The next thing, a business man that has a familiar but unfamiliar face approaches him, congratulates him, and gives him a lack of free choice. But when he wakes up, he is being thrown into the world again with no breifing on what's happening. Just 2 citizens wearing uniforms on a train that smells like sorrow.

      Half Life 2 is the best fps game ever. Even maybe the best game ever. I can't think of a single fps game better than Half Life 2. Bioshock, Bioshock Infinite, Stalker are up there but not quite there, Half Life 2 sits on peak of fps games alone. Half Life 2 is simply perfect in every way imaginable.

      I love Half Life, especially HL2 and its episodes, but frankly we just need more games with lots of attention to detail, a good, solid engine making them available to everyone, and stories with depth and meaning.
      Way too many asset flip, 5-minute development multiplayer make-your-own-content cop-outs nowadays.

    I think, it one of the important places for the whole videogame industry and gamers. From the game design, technical and style perspective it is such a good map. I remember replaying it dozens of times, from the times, when i was a little kid to till present.
    I think, it is the quintessence of half life 2 as the phenomenon, including the unique ambience of the game - alien-like, lonely, post-apocalypse. Every time it gives me chills

After the 7 hour war, humanity had been bent to its knees, forced to live under the watchful eye of the Combine. Those who resist would meet a fate worse than death. Today, we will be going into the dark lore, and history of the Stalkers."
