Idk why but this gives me quite relaxation and comfort, knowing that this ambiance is part of my childhood, whenever i hear this, i get so nostalgic, i wanted to go back when i first play this masterpiece game.
All I’m imagining with this ambience is that this is how everyone in city 17 slept,which also includes actual characters like barney and kleiner. Also if you had told me years ago that I was using city 17 ambience to get to sleep due to my insomnia I wouldn’t believe you but it does work surprisingly well in its own twisted way
For 2004, it was unreal and incredible. Such physics and graphics - it just got me mad. But the atmosphere of HL2 is what made me eternal fan of it - though I havent played for couple of years.
Even when it is bad, there is always a sun after the rain. You do not know any of us, but believe me, we are with you. You can make it, no matter what and no matter how hard times are. I am proud of you, that you are not giving up.
It sounds kinda nice, but life in geniral is a nightmare. There's a metrocop who lives next to where I do, and he gives me daily beatings. Just ignoring all of the awfulness, this does sound nice.
I still find the atmosphere brilliant. I still haven't seen the feeling of such overwhelming oppression done so subtly like as in City 17. You can feel how small humans are compared to the Combine empire by sound design alone.
true as hell , this game give you vibes that no matter how much time passes not a single damn game will make it like Half life and not even close the atmosphere of half life only itself is peace of art
@@wolfensteinx I absolutely agree. The game has an amazing vibe to it and no single game gives a similar vibe, and it's not even close. The atmosphere of Half Life 2 is second to none.
@@urazoktay7940i love the ambiance especially in the first chapter (route kanal) like imagine getting hunted down by the government of a whole country (or in half lifes case the ruler of the world)
The atmosphere for this game is PERFECT. The dull, washed out colors, the way the quiet, empty atmosphere is interrupted by the Combine announcements...it just works so well

@@Krzaczor-ym9gd You're likely thinking of the alarm sound which plays on Hoth in BF2, which sounds similar if you haven't heard it in a prolonged amount of time.
We keep hearing car horns in the background, I wonder what the context of that is. I doubt the Combine allows all that much non-state road traffic to begin with, if they even permit car ownership at all. The Combine themselves probably make extensive use of AI, which wouldn't necessitate manual use of a car horn. Same goes for the ambulance sirens. 🤔
Tbh idk but maybe the Combine allows some cars to be used if they work or reuses them for other purposes. Like how they copied human law enforcement systems and military but replaced them with humans affiliated with the combine, maybe they did the same with cars, but there wasn't many working ones. IK from Gmod the whooping noises you hear, are called Manhack Alert or Scanner Alert. I guess when a Scanner or Manhack spots someone or something bad it does that. The APC's have their own alarm noises also. 5:40 Distant one.
