Big day today, Freeman.

What was the point in allowing you to kill scientists? Was it low key trying to be an immersive sim?
>>
>>12133962
Did you see the HL1 documentary Valve put out? When they get to Gabe Newell, he talks about how part of designing HL1 was making sure the world reacts to the player. He doesn't talk about killing scientists, but it stands to reason the world reacting to the player includes shooting or crowbaring a scientist to death.

>>12133962

It "low-key" tried to simulate a lot of bullshit that the player will never take notice of or care about, like cockroach ai and NPCs having "smell systems" where Barney says "peeUU!! yucky stink!" when he walks near a corpse.
The goal was of this was sell sensational stories to journalists, who would report on this "deep" foray into simulation of fauna and human senses, all in Gabe's goal of astroturfing Half-Life as the peak PC game of All-Time so they could get customers to set up more Steam profiles on their developing app.

i like the thing the scientists do in game where their mouths move any time they operate on machines like the doors
it's like they're making the beeping sounds themselves

i like how in morrowind, anytime you start a daedra quest, the daedras voice actually comes from your own player character
still not entirely sure if that was a design choice, or just a convenient way to get the audio sample to play within the engine

This we used to call them an ImSim which should for "I'm sure it's make-believe" because the game were notorious for their unrealistic settings. It was only recently corrupted ImSims to mean immersive simulations because they're morons and believe everything they see on a computer screen is like real life. Like, come on, "I'm going to prevent some wizard from taking over the world by....stealing some silverware." What kind of asshole finds that an immersive simulation lol.
