I love this GAME

In a gaming platform where modern multiplayer shooters are obsessed with grinding, grabbing peoples money and competitive play, there’s something fun and refreshing about revisiting a classic like Half-Life 2: Deathmatch. Released almost two decades ago, this game still surprises me. Especially the damn Steam Logo jump scare when you boot up the game! I haven't once not been scared by it, no matter how much I play these old Valve games!

I don't know how, but it's still up and running! With player peaks, from what I can tell, going to ~35 players when I am playing is already fantastic! Considering that this was released only 4 years after Ricochet, very impressive! It's not that surprising that it's doing better than ricochet.

You could lob a Frisbee at people... or throw a metal shelf at annoying players, ending their whole career!

Matches are quick if you're having fun! killing more people than anyone else the main aim of the game, but I beg to differ.
I feel that the better aim of the game, all games, is to have fun and if your having fun, your enjoying the game＜（＾－＾）

Whether you’re wielding a janky, gravity defying gravity gun or smacking someone with a crowbar, the goal remains the same.
Remember the days when you’d play shooters with your friends, Half-Life 2: Deathmatch captures that good essence of cooperative play. It’s not about climbing leaderboards, it’s about pure, unadulterated chaotic fun.

So, if you’re up for some gravity-defying combat and want to re-live the glory days of online shooters, grab your crowbar and jump back into Half-Life 2: Deathmatch!
