Yea, it looks really great, would love to see it on steam. as for project borealis, although not a mod was very dissapointing for me because of its use of a different engine, janky physics and so on, Nothing beats the original physics, and menus while they did do a good job on it.
yeah, it's not too overly ambitious for it's own good, instead it's exactly what the fans have been waiting for all these years. it also nailed the ps3/xbox 360 kind of look the game would probably have if it came out.
Damn, that flashback at 3:30 hits pretty hard. I wonder if Gordon actually has PTSD from the whole experience. I mean, to him, it was only a few weeks ago.
@@aaronidaeit did, but because the combine was a direct continuation of what had happened, he hasn't had a chance to rest and process. If anything, it's a TSD. Imagine like if you're a Palestinian who had a heart attack and went into a hospital. The heart attack was traumatic. Then assumed Israeli gunmen come in and shoot the staff. You haven't had a chance to recover from the terror of almost dying from a heart attack. Because now you're terrified they're going to shoot you. But you get kicked out of the hospital and are outside shivering. Maybe you can process it now... Nope, airstrike blows up nearby buildings that knock you down. Only if you are not near any other terrorist attacks can you finally get a chance to think about your heart attack and process it and get PTSD. Until then, you're just in shock.
This actually reminds me a lot of the HL2 Beta, but not in the usual way people mean about color palette. More like the 2003 E3 demo and some of the 2002 clips
Intuitive, cohesive, familiar, notably and visibly upgraded and updated visually and stays in line with what we knew from previous episodes and exciting to see the room for creativity as seen on the question of "what the hell is that now " of the zomb-strider-crab. This also brings up the ability to keep being able to tell a story from the clutter to the suit jabber.Great work to the creators.
To be honest, for a while it even seemed to me that this was a leak of Valve’s archives. Amazing job. The original engine and physics are simply great.
@@maskedninja6883 I feel like the arctic makes more sense here, snow kind of looks like sand and is white, and again if you eventually get to the borealis it has to be in the arctic
All those barrels and explosives, and he uses 90% of the ammo of guns that aren't even very useful against Hunters. This does look amazing though. If we can get a whole game of this I'd be incredibly happy.
Wood burns and we know it intuitively and there were crates that burned. Though I agree that figuring out that I need to grab a burning crate and place it next to a wooden board would have been a bit more challenging than usual.
The more I see Half-Life, the more I want to play Half-Life! I've been playing Half-Life for over twenty years and it's always a great experience! Half-Life is definitely something magical!
Именно что-то вроде этого я и хотел, просто продолжения истории, без каких-либо графических или идейных новинок. Я просто хочу узнать, что будет дальше...
This looks absolutely amazing and crisp i love it Project Borealis is like black mesa source a total redesign + new engine, when finished it should look amazing asf, but will they do it?
Kind of glad Half life 3 didn't release because if you think about it. Maybe Valve wanted to wait for Each Engine upgrade. They did the first on GoldSrc, Then Source Engine. Now Source 2 is out and I'd like to think and hope it would release. If yall think why they waited for advancements into titles the huge jump from goldsrc to source 1 was insane.
You know some people get it, some people don't... This guy gets it... And man is that a breath of fresh air after seeing that nonsense the unreal team had been working on with project Borealis... Like don't give me wrong some of the physics stuff was really cool, but talk about missing the forest for the trees in just about everything that they tried to replicate in unreal... And that's the thing, I'm going to mod Half-Life 2 stock gameplay to be not bad Half-Life 2 stock gameplay.. I can't necessarily do that with unreal.. so when it's even worse somehow by nature of just fundamentally misunderstanding how to do a proper view model and create a interactive environment, like who cares at this point. I did not expect to be waking up today and being excited about an episode three mod lol.. This is this is kind of cool this is kind of exciting, yeah it's it's still too far out to like get too excited about.. But like.. This is good, this is good stuff this good gameplay good puzzle good environment and man good environment.. Also thought it was interesting that like I was watching somebody else play through this, and they had a completely different experience from yourself.. I'm about to go watch that again to see why, part of it was they didn't have quite full unadulterated source brain like you seem to have lol.. or maybe they were just a little bit too used to the valve.. how did civvi put it? Garden of Love? That Half-Life 2 video he did is... Absolutely precious, in in bringing to words that feeling that you get when you're trying to make sense of valve gameplay and why when you try to introduce interesting things into it suddenly it just feels like it falls on its face The moment you have autonomy.
Dear Valve, Even if you did HL2 E3 or HL3 in Source 1 Enginie graphis in 2024, we will still be happy. We don't need life like graphics (At least I don't). Thanks Valued HL Player since 1998
Whoever was playing this has no idea how to use the physics engine,has no idea how to make efficient use of ammunition and no idea how to fight hunters with the gravity gun. This was painfully shit to watch.
This is an installment of the critically acclaimed video game franchise known as Half-Life, specifically the third episodic chapter, which has been developed and produced by the renowned video game company Valve Corporation.
Most coherent explanation as to why Episode 3 was never made I heard that basically the parties involved thought preparation took too long, then too much time has passed, and then they didn't have the heart for it anymore. To which I say: bullshit. That's a weak ass copout. They had no trouble making Alyx, so they have no excuse for not making Episode 3.

And that energy ball for that across-the-map shot 🥴
Shooting at the Manhacks with the SMG instead of just using the Gravity Gun
SHOOTING at the supply crates instead of using the crowbar
Better than Project Borealis in my opinion, no major engine switching with the original source magic we all love.
They could use Source 2 instead but nah. It doesn't not feel authentic
imagine the faces of team borealis guys who worked at their demo for 5smth years

What's the problem with the way he plays? You don't have a PC to play the demo
