One of the best games i have ever played!

A game about being late for work and being lost on sight.

It's 2024 and it's the first time time experiencing this game from 1998. In addition this was the first game I've played on mouse and keyboard that utilized real time combat. With those two odds staked against me Half Life was still a BLAST.

The physics and level design must have blown people away in the past. Majority of the game still holds up strongly today as controls and combat are fairly simple to grasp; yet the challenges placed on the player make sure you engage yourself fully, master efficient movement, and managed ammo supply. There are also no cut scenes, everything is told and shown in real time furthering immersion.

Going into Half-Life unaware it was borderline Horror. . .even when it was Action / Plat-former orientated, It managed to make me jump at least, AT LEAST 20 times! The entire experience is a pure adrenaline rush. Everything is your enemy. Aliens, Humans, the actual Facility, and infamous Gravity. (F*** ladders man!) If you are a fan of feeling panic and paranoia around every corner, this is it. All gas no breaks! Get me the hell out of here! What a day.

That being said I do have some minor complaints, some of which may due to age. I wont get to into it, Just list it off. These are my only
Cons:
Momentum feels slippery

Getting stuck on geometry

Sound doesn't feel balanced
(I'm deaf now)

Overall, even in today's age of gaming Half-life still manages to deliver an exciting immersive experience and lives up to the positive feedback I and many other have heard for many years. GG

I will leave the cat here, so that everybody who passes by can pet it and give it a thumbs up and awards
