OMG THIS IS AMAZING I'm SO used to the source engine so I almost never get excited for mods but, somehow this made me feel the same wonder and valve-ness (you know what i mean??) as if im gonna be playing half life 2 the first time again ❤
THIS LOOKS AWESOME!!! I'm so excited for this! i'm so glad we are getting 2 Episode 3 mods in the source engine that look faithful to the Valve aesthetic!
I think it's more "open yourself." Makes sense when it came to video games - immersion. Too bad the big boys rely on graphics rather than gameplay & story.
@@trainenthusiast5199 I guess that's one way to look at it. But considering how the uploader said that they will update it means they will change it so maybe that's not the actual meaning. And this current image is just a place holder. I think it's a joke meaning "open your backside"... But that's just my interpretation thinking the devs are just messing around behind the scenes which is normal.
The demo as well as the larger project has had a lot of closed testing to ensure this is as polished as possible. I’ll also be collating all feedback from the demo once its released publicly to get that standard of polish even higher.
I know this is just a teaser but this is HELLA good, especially the HEADCRAB crawling like a SPIDER in the vents! One single suggestion I have is to add a buncha rebels (and maybe a vortigaunt or two) on the heli with Freeman, since he should be the most protected human on earth right now.
Thanks for the feedback. All teasers so far have omitted one thing or another for story reasons. So scenes play out a bit differently in the actual game
Really cool idea to have a valve intro that has a valve on woman's back I would call it "Open Your Potential" or "Open Your Strength". But Valve on her back looks a bit weird the perspective of the back and valve is wrong.
The intent is "Open your heart" but I agree this image needs a lot of work. Will take your feedback onboard and iterate on the image before the next update!
Plenty of puzzles to keep the flow going naturally. The flow is dictated by play testing and feedback, so hopefully playthroughs will feel like what you’d expect from a Half-Life game.
@@PegaXing awesome! A friend of mine and I at work who told me about this I shared one of my concerns with hoping there would be obstacles/puzzles I'll be sure to let him know keep up the great work!
This mod and Entropy Zero 2 are the pinnacle of how to do Valvian game design. This my sound silly, but maybe using what we’ve learned as a community of how to create games like Valve, the community will curate a Half Life 3 from all the mods that take place post HL2e2.
I don't want to sound like one of those people, but I don't have high hopes for this. The other Half Life 3/Half Life 2: episode 3 mods were cancelled, so I don't know what to expect, if it it will come out or not. If the full game does come out, I'll be very surprised.
The demo is around the length of Half-Life Lost Coast, maybe longer to find all side content. As for the larger game - I’ll be covering that in the next news article on its ModDB page. Stay tuned!
@@PegaXing its a little loud, but not to much, just have the volume down a small bit and it should be good. dont want to make it to quiet after all, otherwise you wont be able to here anything. full honesty, i just say this because my speakers are somewhat soft, and i like to have things loud, you do what you thinks best.
Currently it’s a bit of both, but majority real. The goal is to just get it all sounding as natural and accurate as possible - ideally with fully natural acting. But given some contexts a few scenes will require AI.
Not if it uses a custom client that's not from the base game. But if the dev mod provides the source code, it will probably be ported to Android by someone.

A high-quality mod based on episode 3 that isn't destroyed by disorganised development and sheer ambition? I thought the day would never come.

ARE YOU READY FOR A MIRACLE?!??
The helicopter crash reminds me a lot like Opposing Force. That'd be dope if it also had references to other really good mods like EZ2.
the outside section with that massive sphere structure and the fog is just amazing
Valve's early intro: "open your eyes"
Valve now: "open your mind"
this?: "open your back"???
It will be updated by the next update and demo!

This man disappeared for 8 years, and came back with THIS.

So good, dude. Don't stop, but also keep the right headspace.
The demo is going to be awesome! Looking forward to seeing how you implement the overworld headcrabs in the final release 👀

It fits imo

Amazing work

More like "Interlewd" if that's going to be the splash screen.

So. Much. WANT!
Looks amazing, i can't wait to play this
I have to say, as an EZ fan, this is a better interpretation of the arctic environment. Peak incoming.
The immense quality of EZ drove me to settle on a different interpretation- glad it resonates with you.
This looks INCREDIBLE. And for free?! It’s wild, just how far source has come since the first days of half-life 2!
Holy shit this looks incredible. Demo cant come soon enough I hope you have playtesters

@@PegaXing ok good, I'm just worried that this might end up like the others, so I'm gonna hold up on the excitement till the full thing comes out.
You should add the frozen zombies frlm the beta
They are actually in this mod
It’s going to be on steam right
This looks brilliant! Any idea on when the demo will release? Of course, take as much time as you need on the main release!
Do you have an estimate on how long it’ll take the player to complete the demo and full campaign rrspectively?
The demo is around the length of Half-Life Lost Coast, maybe longer to find all side content.

Whooooaaaa
You can't just add amen breaks for nothing, I am very hyped, it better be pretty cool!
It better.
intro name is "Open your heart"?
I am curious if helping on such a mod in HL2's engine would take time to learn, as I am interested. I am a 3d artist btw. But I work in Unreal 4/5.
Hit me up!
Do you think there’s a possibility you could get voice actors for this project? I want the characters to play a major role in the storytelling.

its a little loud, but not to much, just have the volume down a small bit and it should be good.
dont want to make it to quiet after all, otherwise you wont be able to here anything.
full honesty, i just say this because my speakers are somewhat soft, and i like to have things loud, you do what you thinks best.
Will Aidan Walker (Protogonist of entropy zero) have a cameo in game?
dmca when?
Weird question but will the voice acting be real people or ai generated
Currently it’s a bit of both, but majority real. The goal is to just get it all sounding as natural and accurate as possible - ideally with fully natural acting. But given some contexts a few scenes will require AI.
Is PegaXing actually a lady? 0:01👀
i need
im sorry but breakcore does NOT belong in a half-life mod that's supposed to be similar to valve in terms of how it's done
half life music is really experimental i think it works fine
Are you solo dev? AND PLEASE DONT QUIT LIKE OTHERS WE NEED A MOD LILE THAT.
Yes. Post demo I will assemble a team to continue development. Working full time on this.
Pop.
I hope this work on Source Engine Android
Not if it uses a custom client that's not from the base game. But if the dev mod provides the source code, it will probably be ported to Android by someone.
i know this is epistle 3 based and all, but I honestly hope it does something a lil different with the overall ... themeing, I'd say. not a huge fan of how downer of an ending the script concept had, yknow?
This mod takes ideas from Epistle 3 but is largely its own take on it.
