SO ABOUT THAT HALF-LIFE CUT CONTENT HUH!
Nice diversion of topic, is that a thing or are you talking about the previous concepts that got scrapped due to it having “too many blade runner vibes”.
did you know that monsters were meant to breed and multiply if you took longer to reach their section of the game in half life 1
Was that not added because the game would be too hard for most people or was it just too hard to code so they didn’t do it?
Probably a combination of it being too hard to implement and it just being a crappy mechanic that punishes players that are bad by making it even more difficult. That’s pretty bad game design IMO.
Happy Birthday Thrive! (Sort of)
A decade in the making!
Another interesting half life fact did you know that its possible To cripple a strider if you shoot them in the knee they slow down permanetly Double fact originally the player was going to be able to drive a combine apc and if they didnt see you enter it or if you didnt shoot them whilst inside they wouldn’t attack you. the reason behind this was for stealth sections where combine smart barriers would only raise if they thought you were a combine
I knew about both of those, my Half Life 2 knowledge is iffy since I haven’t looked it up for awhile but I did watch a lot of videos about the development of it.
Its my birthday!
Happy Birthday!
