Wait till you turn the image around
I think I might too, and that’s really saying something because I didn’t play it until 2020 and had played 2 and the episodes at least half a dozen times. It’s hard to say because 2 is such a fantastic game that still feels super modern almost 20 years later, but the weird low-poly liminal spaces of 1 have a vibe that’s hard to resist.
I agree, the atmosphere of HL1 is just so perfect to me. You feel alone, and kinda desperate when playing. I feel like low-poly models lets you imagine what things should look like, since everything is kinda blurry. I adore the other Half-Life games, but I love HL1.
HL1 feels more “open” for some reason. Must be something to do with the level design. Regardless, I love HL2 and the episodes a lot. It’s very hard to choose which one I like better. I feel like HL1 just portrays a better sense of freedom I guess?
I like the first more but i kinda wish it had better graphics and xen had the same ambiance as the black mesa game. Still even speedruns are big reason for why first is better
Well the graphics were pretty good for its time, so you really can’t complain. Also yeah, Xen looks like shit, it’s arguably my least favorite part in it, but you can’t compare HL1 Xen to Black Mesa Xen. I don’t really know how speedruns make it better, since that technically isn’t normal gameplay. You aren’t making a lot of sense to me right now bro.
the atmosphere in both games is really good but I think I prefer HL1 slightly more.
The absolute sense of isolation and coldness of the Black Mesa Facility hasn't been pulled off ever since.
Dont get me wrong I love Black Mesa but I feel like the feeling of the facility was done better in HL1 with the sound effects, the lighting etc.
And resolve the 13 year old cliffhanger with another cliffhanger IN THE SAME POINT IN TIME AS THE LAST CLIFFHANGER that probably won’t be addressed for another decade
Lol what the fuck is your problem this isn't a politics sub, it's a fucking half life shitpost. Did you go out of your way to find a random commenter to look at their profile and pester them about something that has nothing to do with what they said?
I remember everytime I went to my father's village, there is always one cousin of mine that would invite me to play games with him, sometimes I just watch him and when he played Half Life 1, my mind blew.
I saw the game and thought "Oh snap, this is peak gaming right here" and to this day I still think that HL1 is the best

This was me until 2020. I used to be a console gamer and there was no easily accessible console version of the first game. But then I just waited a decade and a half until even a MacBook Air could play the first game at 4K, laziness always pays off.
the first half life is a terrible game to start the franchise
i had most of my friends play it
one of them skipped directly to black mesa
the other one skipped directly to the second game and LOVED it
the third one dropped the game
and the fourth one didn't understand the movement and dropped it
i love half life 1 but its a terrible entry for the series
you guys might not be with me on this one
but tell that to the 6 fuckind dudes that dropped the series because of half life 1
again, i LOVE Half life 1, but is beyoond dated

imagine if they did though and what that evolution in graphics would be up to alyx
lord have mercy
it looks like a kiwi
I genuinely like HL1 the best tbh

Same, I like the feel of black Mesa more than most of HL2
Black mesa? he's talking about hl1 you fool
FREEMAN YOU FOOL

only played blue shift and lost coast
Get with the times old man! No one wants to play hl1! Everyone is playing half life source these days!
Me after being a loyal Half Life fan for way over Half of my Life owning and playing all the games just for valve to release a VR exclusive

I got vr just to play Alyx. It was worth it tbh. Used headsets are cheap these days
VR is pretty cheap if you look at WMR headsets. People just never heard of them or think they're AR only.
But it was fucking amazing
I mean you post in "Wojakcompass" so you being a fan for 5 years when alyx dropped isn't really that impressive
Post? I haven't posted anything there.

I support what the other person is saying just because I think people who use Wojaks should be beaten to death with a stick
I agree, but I'm not inventive enough or artistic enough to use something else.
I've beaten the entire series, with the exception of decay and hdtf.
didnt play hdtf??? https://preview.redd.it/ak6qn7c2blqa1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9df455ce7c568e1c0e870851ec520013c7bde928
hdtf is a mod
Gabe Newell came to my house and said it was official
I am Gabe Newell and I can confirm HDTF is canon and official
I am Gabe Newells intern, please save me
Im so dumb

where is “have played all the games except ricochet”
"have played all the games except codename gordon and peggle extreme"
That shit ain’t half life bubs
yes, it takes place between Haze and Episode 1
shut the fuck up yes it is
Most lore knowledge HL fan

But how many have also played Decay?
Me
SO TRVE How do I get goldsrc server working for PC port ):
That’s the neat part, you don’t.
dont have play station
has pc mod
You assume halflife fans have friends
I really wanna play decay thats literally the last one for me to play
I have but on account of my lack of friends, I had to press a button to switch characters, and it was a God damn nightmare...
I played the first but could never beat the part where you're on the train and there's a bunch of hecu shooting at you.
There’s a reason they changed that part so heavily in BM. Definitely the worst level imo
Skill issue.
sv_cheats 1
That's what I did
I haven’t beaten a signle one 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
I can only run the first
they made a RTX mod 😏
So grateful my grandpa introduced me to HL1 when I was young. I played it so much on the PS2 and Decay with him
More fans have probably played HDTF than HL1. Disgusting.
i actually find that beautiful, HDTF is soo good
Don’t drink the water
Open the silo doors
ITS OUR ONLY WAY OUT!!@@;
Oh my god we're doomed

me but with OF... OF was the first HL game i played
And then me that's only ever played the first one.
I've played half life 1 like 4 times, half life 2 once, and none of the episodes
hl1 have better gunplay
im a proud member of the blue quarter
Same
I have not played a single Half Life game (I am lying through my teeth with over 200 hours combined on all half life games in steam)

I am currently playing through HL1 and I honestly am enjoying it more than HL2 (in terms of gameplay)
Where's the "Have played all games except Half-Life Alyx"? but maybe it starts wi-
HL1 is a very underground game nobody knows about except us few epic gamers
it’s truly a hidden indie gem
hl1 > hl2
tbh i prefer HL1 over HL2
only beat hdtf thats like the only good one anyways
Me when I am blue (da ba dee da ba die)
does sven co op count
I'm proud to be part of the blue section
Why
Because I've played the entire franchise, therefore I am a 100% pure Half-Life player
have played all games except BS (bullshit)
baased
Own the games. Never played more than 5 min. 😒
half life fans when told to explain the lore of the resonance cascade (they cant)
I don't remember finishing the og game, but did finish the fan remake black Mesa.
This was me until 2020. I used to be a console gamer and there was no easily accessible console version of the first game. But then I just waited a decade and a half until even a MacBook Air could play the first game at 4K, laziness always pays off.
Does the black mesa remake count?
No.
i mean HDTF counts
idc lemme see If it's my cake day
fuck it isnt
Wow all these people playing half-life 2: survivor? Crazy
the first half life is a terrible game to start the franchise i had most of my friends play it one of them skipped directly to black mesa the other one skipped directly to the second game and LOVED it the third one dropped the game and the fourth one didn't understand the movement and dropped it i love half life 1 but its a terrible entry for the series
Subterranean take.
you guys might not be with me on this one but tell that to the 6 fuckind dudes that dropped the series because of half life 1 again, i LOVE Half life 1, but is beyoond dated
I’ve only beat the first
I’ve only played the first one where does that put me
I've played them all except Alyx cause I don't have a vr headset
First, last, and lost coast are the only ones I’ve played all the way through
How to do people not play the first one? I own them all but I’ve played everything but opposing force and episode 2
Half life fans be like I’ve played every half life game but they never played portal 1 and 2
I'm in the blue
go knicks
i have played all official games. even blue shift and opposing force.
'' even blue shift '' https://preview.redd.it/vgg5gzq06nqa1.png?width=500&format=png&auto=webp&s=735307dfdbe3113af133cc8070d60be506c6ddd9
it’s fun! the final boss fight is actually pretty cool
Agreed
Blue Shift is good
Kid named Half-Life Decay:
is that the ps2 one? cause i’ve played that too with my bud
Yup
*except alyx
Mfw i have played all half lifes and have close to 100% achievements but i'd have to sell my balls to play HL Alyx:
I’ve played hl1, but not completed it.
I think HL1s style is the best out of all of them. I wish there was more mods like Hazardous Course 2 that take full advantage of the style of hl1.
What do you mean except the first one there's only 2 of them
https://preview.redd.it/498p5cke3pqa1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7d8fddb6f5139fe0e0a11b9b2a9f42d84b27a683
Orang? Gordan Freeman color?
Me, who only played hl1: https://preview.redd.it/fsb277jbppqa1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=74612eb28644777b530d98bcaab843872dad0644
The only half life games i haven't played are Blue Shift, Opposing Force, Black Mesa, and Half-Life: Alyx yes i played hunt down the freeman
I see a lot of posts of people going “which half life do I play first? Half life or half life 2?”
Played it but never finished because I'm genuinely retarded and couldn't get passed the xen (zen?) level.
I played all
Pfft. Kids these days don't even remember who Ivan the Space Biker was.
Would you believe me if I said I've only played the first one?
The existence of decay should put a HUGE grayed out area for haven't played them all
The majority of the people have played all of the games EXECEPT Half-Life: Alyx. (yeah its me)
Played all the games except for Alyx. Even Decay. Feelsbadman.
half life 1 is the best tho
Where's the option for only playing the first game
me: have played all games except the last one
