There is also a VR mod on Steam that works perfectly With Half-Life 2, No need to jump through hoops, it just works. One of the best VR experiences out there.
I keep trying to play half-life and keep quitting everytime because of motion sickness

Pick up Black Mesa or see if there is a demo. It’s a fan-made remake made recently that might be easier on your eyes. Additionally, you can open up the developer console and enter:
sv_friction 6
This the movement friction from the default of 4 to 6 to make the game less slidey.
The motion in HL1 is quite odd as you somewhat slide around rather than walk. It was quite normal back in the old days of Quake but if you’ve played mostly modern shooters, I can totally get how odd (and potentially motion sickness inducing) it is.
HL2 is peak first person shooter. More recent games have added a lot, but after playing through HL2 recent, it’s really nice to strip all that extra stuff away.
I can see why people didn’t like some parts (boat, car) but they’re so iconic to me.
Except episode 2 (1?) car shit with the buckeyballs. Fuck that.
I disagree, I cannot see why people dislike those parts—the tension is fantastic in both
FYI, that’s roughly 50x the normal average over the past 3 months. And also the highest ever concurrent users was 4 hours ago. Not bad.

Nostalgia’s a helluva drug. I’ve done my best to try to avoid it, but we all like that hit from time to time.
Played Half Life 2 for the first time in my life at 25, 10/10 perfect game.
Avoid nostalgia?
Is the update actually anything significant?
The full list is on steam, the main thing is it’s bundled all hl2 games in one package, integrated workshop for mod installation, and added new developer commentary for hl2. Also a bunch of misc fixes etc.
How does that compare to Concord?
I don’t think these two games can be reasonably compared. HL2 is currently free, while concord was a paid game.
Also, Concord is so old that they don’t even sell it anymore…
Man , it’s dead just let it go. Digging on Concord was funny the first week it was shelved
Digging on Concord was funny for longer than its server were online.
Fair enough.
