  • Can you beat Half Life 2 with simulated Dark Souls 1 movement and mechanics? Well...no, not really - But here's a play-by-play of my convoluted, nonsensical attempt to do so anyway.

It made me feel like we had the same tastes and interests, and I felt very welcome watching. You did a great explaining your process and things you've done, be it oversight or reflection. Really made me feel like I wasn't missing out on anything. I really, really enjoyed this. I know it's probably a lot of work putting out a video of this scale, but I'd totally watch another of these.

    The topic (I'm biased)
    The editing, which doesn't get overwhelming neither stale. A perfect balance.
    And all of its other creative aspects are fantastic as well.
    It reminds me of simpler times where I'd play through HL2 using all kinds of mods over and over again.
    As well as playing Synergy HL2 co-op with like ~10 randoms and all the fun and chaos that ensued, similar to what's happening in the video in some way.
    It's also funny how you don't know any of the loading screen points (skill issue smh) but for me they're burned into my memory from the hundred of playthroughs of the campaign i've done lol.
