>>732311443I just got home. And yes, it's relevant to discuss the changing attitudes and the legacy of certain franchises, faggot.
>>732311538>a bunch of people are somehow representative of what an entire generation thinks of something
>>732311157What are you doing in a pub if you don't even like pubg
Youre a 30+ year old ass man caring what a bunch of 20 something year olds think about some proto Fortnite Korean Battle Royale slop over Half-Life fucking 2.
>>732311157neither were revolutionary, both were influential
>>732311610It's a sample. Not indicative of all, but I found it baffling, and given that they're somewhat knowledgeable, I found it interesting.>>732312091I'm 29 and they're 27. They're my friends and I care what they think and found it interesting.
>>732312310You're not even old then.
HL2 is one of the most overrated games of all time.
>>732312091Yeah but what does the reddit frog have to do with that
Man I wish I had a nerd bar in my town. We either have sports bars or crack dens. What's it like needing out at the pub while drunk off your ass? Anyways. I don't understand why arc raiders and E33 are "so great"
>>732311157l'm a zoomer and I think those zoomers are retarded.
>>732311157Zoomers were right but they mean arma 2 and it's mods
>Physics puzzles doodIt was gimmick, still is just a gimmick, hl2 didn't revolutionize shit
>>732311157>implying zoomers are old enough to drink
I like the gameboy color
>>732312310you're also a zoomer, retard. and you willingly associate with retards yet made it sound in the OP like it was a conversation with some randomskys fag
How did Half life 2 revolutionize anything? Physics? That was just the Havok Engine.
>>732312649every bar (You) go to is a nerd bar.>E33 seethe out of nowhereabsolutely buckbroken darkie, kek
>>732313585i don't miss worm-lights.The GBA SP was true TECHNOLOGY for getting rid of them
That’s because anyone who grew up with Half life 2 either has kids now and doesn’t play video games or has no friends at this point. The brown shitskin hordes were given free obamaphones and EBTnet and then only played free games since 2010 so multislop games are the only one that have gained wide popularity because of streamer relevance You don’t see people playing single player kino on streams because it’s not “cool” or something Also most single player games cost money which favelamonkeys don’t have so they use their older brothers PSN and play rocket league only.
>>732314458Valve really fucked up by not making a half life 2 mobile version.
>oldhead thread>29You are not part of the council nor do we grant you the rank of master. Get the fuck out you dumb kid
>>732314790Half life 3 will be on the new steam bento Box.
>>732311157You know, that actually does make a lotta sense. Half-Life 2 revolutionized very little. They had a clever use and ubiquitous presence of physics objects, but it was just bog standard Havok and less creative than other games in the years before. Its animations and such were great, but it was just iterating on the skeletal animation systems that were pushed more by Half-Life than Half-Life 2. Very few games really took from Half-Life 2's design either.Whereas PUBG finally pulled together all the ideas Brendan Greene had over the years, and was instrumental for the Battle Royale genre and its later derivatives to become a dominating presence in the game's industry.
>>732313585I've been playing games on my GBC recently and the screen looks so good in direct sunlight. Indoors it blows, even with a little light on it. It really was designed to be played outside while getting a tan.
What did HL2 revolutionize? It wasn't the first game with a dedicated physics engine and physics dependent games never took off.If anything it was a very polished story driven FPS game.
>>732316825it had a crowbar as a weapon, i dont think i can describe just how insane that was for gaming
>>just had a conversation at a pub>so your first impulse was to shitpost and gossip about it on the anime incel forum?>kill yourself retard
HL2 was a good game but it wasn't really that revolutionary, it had some cool physics and setpiece moments but that's about it, it's more like a glorified walking sim than an actual shooter.
>>732311157>Cuck LifeYeah it really revolutionized the walkie talkie moviegame sloppa tumor that permanently ruined westacuck games. Even came packaged with an ugly mutt goblina companion lolHang PC boomer scum.
>>732311157>PUBgoers like PUBGHmm
>>732319772lol
>>732311157look i dont blame them as far as retro games go half life 2 is fucking horrible, extremely boring to play. it aged like pure shit. might be the worst aging game of all time, rivalled only by those neo geo fighting games
>>732311157Halflife 2 just spawned random fps games with physics which was novel at the time and newer engines have phased out. Pubg spawned like, half the economy of China in battle royale genre chasing bullshit. It wasn't a good influence, but it was an influence. Don't quote me on that but I'm pretty sure it's accurate.
i never played hl2 and it doesnt look revolutionary.even hl1 wasn't that revolutionary, there are multiple other games that tried the same thing hl did, but hl was the only one that was well made
>>732320291Nigger opinions don’t matter.
>>732311157Half-Life killed the evolution of doom-likes. Unreal is better game than Half-Life.
>bunch of underage b& asking "what did hl2 revolutionize, nothing it does seems unique"yeah because a lot of it got adapted by games afterwards you fucking retardsgames before it did not ever do physics on the same level as it, it was involved in the puzzles and in clearing levels, it's even used for many weapons it was probably the first game that you could play start to finish without a cutscene and all the storytelling happened in the world as you meet relevant people or get to relevant locations
>>732320291there was something about having css, gmod and HL2 back then, gaming was so unique back then
>>732311157Where are the half life 2 clones? I can name plenty of pubg clones
>>732311157I just had a conversation at a pub with two old guys about their army and marine days, how groceries have gotten really expensive, and telling the cute bartender that I've learned to start braiding hair.Bros start learning to braid hair.Women light the fuck up if you tell them.They want to engage in conversation with you with complete earnest.It's the easiest cheat code holy shit.Little $25 mannequin head off Amazon.Simple-ass 3-strand braid.Doesn't even have to be good.Show them the picture.They'll talk with you I promise and it'll be genuine.
>>732322058Why do you have to practice and why is this impressive? Braiding is fucking easy. What do you even talk about
Zoomers know half life 2 exists?
>>732322207Half-Life 3 meme just made its rounds at the end of 2025. They know.
>>732311157Stop it, 30 isn't old (for men).
