What is the hardest chapter in Half Life 2?

[R]

I am asking this because I want to know what chapter in Half Life 2 is the hardest for you.

i think the only real hard part in the entire game is the battle when you have to survive to wait for the energy ball to open, when all the overwatch comes from right and left, part seen in "anticitizen one" so i will say that chapter, just for that one part

chrisvig71,

Are you talking about waiting to knock the PB out of its container so the gate opens for the next area of Anticit 1?

If so, agreed, waiting for it to open while dealing with the BGs can be stressful. But totally survivable with some practice, knowing order and where the BGs appear from can keep you healthier longer. Approaching them from the proper area with the correct wep makes a big diff. Also the 2 rebels standing around Alyx have tonza meds in case you burn up all the supplies around the control station.

I think I died the most during the strider battles outside the nexus. The first few ones you encounter in combat. Follow freeman is the chapter I believe.

alyx defense segment in anticitizen one.

yes im talking about the defense segment, i actually have the feeling that i not played it correctly, because it seems the strangest part of the game with a difficulty spike so strong

i never actually found the strider battle hard, i always keep read "strider battle is hell" but for me is easy, but im not disturbed if someone found it hard, or easy, the thing that hurt me is the fact that they "insult" the striders, an artistic decision only because they found it hard...
like in tier lists, strider sometimes are very low... striders are a very iconic and a beautyful idea, you cannot don't like an artistic thing, because for you is too hard the segment of the game
