Something like Half-Life but newer?

[St✩rlight]

What are some games like Half-Life but more modern?

[Stingray_tm]

Black Mesa ;)

[St✩rlight]

It seems quite old. I guess I mean something like a story driven FPS with some nice locations and not too much story but plenty of shooting.

Half life 2

[St✩rlight]

That's not even newer it's in the same orange box.

Oh yeah, that one looked quite good. Reminds me of Wolfenstein in a way for some reason.

Story-driven exploration shooters are a lost art these days.

If a game has a significant story, it's pretty much going to be an RPG. If it has shooting mechanics it's some kind of multiplayer cash grab or an on-rails where the story is "bad guys BAD! Now shoot."


I think a lot of it comes down to the fact that devs are loathe to do level design, because semi-open exploration takes actual work. Way easier to strap the player to a one-way street or let the computer generate a giant empty open world and call that "world building."

Yeah, it seems that way these days. I just want something like the old F.E.A.R games or the newer Wolfenstein games, you know?
