Half life 2 is so damn good. One of my most replayed games.
And full points to Black Mesa for actually improving the game, not just reskinning it. 10/10

The Half-Life series
- Black Mesa instead of Half-Life. It’s an extremely faithful remake that’s absolute joy and I wouldn play it instead of the original now that it exists. Not only the graphics are updated, but also the last chapter of the original game which got rushed to meet deadlines is masterfully completed in Black Mesa
- Half-Life 2 and it’s subsequent episodes

I thoroughly enjoyed black mesa but I don’t think it improved the game. I think it’s a pretty unbalanced experience with a lot of the original atmosphere replaced with pretty textures. I also think the xen levels were extremely unfaithful to the original and devoid of a lot of the original meaning, but again visually stunning.

Am currently playing Black Mesa after having only completed the original in Sven Co-op. It’s nice!
