Kek I was just playing a whole lot of retake servers in cs 1.6 today. So good, that game will never get old.
The deagle shots are so easy to connect, fun game, no wonder it changed the industry forever.

Sven Co-op is the most fun I've ever had in a HL mod besides CS.

I've never played any HL mods because I'm a zoomer. Unless you count CS which I've still played barely any of.

Valve licensed the Quake source from John Carmack to make Half-Life 1’s Goldsrc engine. Quake’s co-author Michael Abrash even helped write it.

I'm still baffled as to why this game got so big. The mods are the only redeeming quality.

I personally would not describe any of the environments in the game as being boring. It all feels very exact and fantastical. It's not a exaggeration to me to say that HL doesn't have a dull moment.

Hey man just dropping in real quick to say that regardless of your intent, you and I both know this is a pretty shitty thread and if your week in isolation boils down to this, you should probably accelerate the process of catching the virus and save it the bother. I won't be here to read your reply to this post because I frankly don't care. I just know you read this which was the important bit. Peace out.

Even the sounds are great in HL1. Using the massively overpowered tranq crossbow was tons of fun, just like the .357, machine gun and gluon gun. HL1 is far and away among the best FPS games of all time. It's up there with Doom 1 and 2 and System Shock 1.

The thing I didn't like were the invulnerable three tentacle monsters. They could have made them super tough but invulnerable felt like a jarring immersion break from an otherwise fantastic game.

>mod
outside of singleplayer expansions like residual life or echoes i didn't really get into HL1 modding because most of them were multiplayer mods and outside of a few like CS & sven co-op most of those were dead by the time i tried to jump in on them.

that said i really liked half-nuked.

>Assumes I give a shit about quake or doom to prove his point
Kek. I played Doom 1 once and have never touched quake, but I agree Doom 1 is a better game. I was able to at least play it without wanting to quit every minute. Half-life was just utter doghshit. Could only play the thing in fucking 1 hour increments it was so tedious. FEAR took everything the game did and did it 10x better. There is 0 reason to play HL while that game exists, not even sure if there's a reason to play it if FEAR didn't exist.

FEAR is repetitive non retro garbage.
