There's lots of DOOM and source engine horror maps, they vary in quality obviously

Exactly. Half-Life is a slightly more realistic Quake, which means it's still preposterous. Half-Life's levels features realistic details like offices with desktop computers, coffee mugs and swivel chairs, brake rooms with couches and vending machines, and bathrooms with stalls and blow dryers, but overall the level design is actually unrealistic as fuck. Black Mesa is bizarre if you stop and look at the locales the levels take place in, because they're still very much designed to for playing a fast and wild shooter in, OSHA/EPA would lose their shit at any workplace which looked anything remotely like this.

Look at the garbage processing plant, it's nuts, and that's because it's not designed to be a real garbage processing plant, but an obstacle course with dangerous traps for the player to get through. The game is full of shit like that, where on the surface there's something which is sometimes kinda realistic, at a glance, but it's entirely designed around the fast shooting and moving.
Remember the tall metal walled room which seems to only exist for hanging crates over a bottomless pit so you can platform over it, the giant wind turbine chamber seeming to exist for the sole purpose of decapitating maintenance personnel, or the honest to god fucking river canal of plutonium.

If anything, Half-Life's level design is a lot like Duke Nukem 3D's (itself playing at quasi-realism), except that the levels are stringed together sequences of hubs where stuff sometimes overlaps, as opposed to enclosed levels.
Half-Life does a good job of taking insane videogame bullshit and cladding it in superficial realism.

Shit man, I'm really looking forward to it, this would be perfect for me to make maps for. I don't need any ACS or ZScript, I love VooDoo scripting anyway, it's simply fun to do.

I remember playing this particular mod in particular years ago. You essentially went around CSS maps re-purposed into single-player HL2 gameplay with SMOD stuff and handplaced actors + objects, and there was an installer-like tool to customize some options and apply them. So basically the whole thing was derivative but made clever use of recycling the actual maps.

It was fun for a bit last time, not sure how it holds up now though.

>tfw forgot about HL1's 20th anniversary again

Damn it

Any of you are into gldsource modding? If so, re you working on something? Post your work, there's barely any discussion about Half-Life here.

any good 3D FPS out there, 2D just doesnt cut it anymore, its just endless streams of DOOM clones

>Residue Processing.

I sure do love having my arsenal arbitrarily taken away (despite just obtaining a new gun mere moments ago) so that I can go through an entire chapter of nothing but platforming, certainly doesn't kill the pacing at all!

>hurr sci-fi rubbish, durr shit taste

you must be just awfully salty that "sci-fi rubbish" is more popular than "muh lovecraftian dungeons (with tech bases)"

>Theres people who unironically think that a cart that allows you to play 97% of the super famicom + super nintendo catalog in one thing is bad, because they cant play the other 3% which, most of them, are not even that rare to find or even worth buying.
