Half Life 2 veterans out there... Any Tips? ...This was another difficult session. This time fighting striders on top of a roof with my under-powered rocket launcher. This weapon is so hard to control...
Half-Life 2 is a Physics-based First Person Shooter developed by Valve. The game follows Gordon Freeman as he tries to liberate Earth from the alien forces that took over in the first game. This game is fun, and If I had to recommend one shooter game, it will be this one!
A true classic. Despite being really old, this game is amazing and has better gameplay than most FPS games that came after it! I can't believe it stayed in my backlog for this long before I finally played it, but I'm happy to have finally experienced this classic.
Every chapter of Half-Life 2 played differently. The various weapons are fun to switch between! The physics system is fun, if a bit unrealistic, and the developers used it in many mind blowing ways.
The best part of the experience, however, is how easy to know where you're supposed to go next without being told. As long as the path is not blocked, you'll find something there, whether its the next story beat, or a secret Healing/Ammo stash!
Half-Life 2's story is told via minimal exposition, I had to connect the dots with the little knowledge I remember of Half-Life 1's events. Immediate goals are provided by a few characters that got involved with Dr. Freeman, like Alyx and Dr. Vance. What's going on is usually told via the environment and physics. Even with no understanding of the story, however, the game would still be fun!
