After only about a year, I'm replaying Half Life 2 again! It's for that sweet new dev commentary. I was thinking about getting the achievements I missed too but the dev commentary disables getting achievements. Which I guess makes sense, while listening to them the player is invulnerable, still kinda annoying though. I might get them later via going to the chapters they're in directly. It would mean more time with the gnome which would be fun (other than keeping him in the damn car anyway).

And I'd already been thinking about replaying the VR mods for it and then into another Alyx playthrough, using my left hand (non-dominant) for the guns. So I'll probably do that after I finish this dev commentary playthrough.

The Half Life games are real good. I slept on them for way too long. Also, lots of people have already said this but, 2 is free right now and the episode sequels have finally been brought into the fold. The rest of the franchise is also on sale (If you don't have a VR headset I've heard there's a mod for it that allows you to play it flat) so now would be a good time to get into it if you haven't already. (Join me in loving Alyx, please, she doesn't get as much love as she deserves.)

I'm still not letting myself get too hype about the Half Life 3 leaks but ooh, they did this all this cool stuff with HL 2 for its b-day, indicating they care about the series again. So I am a little bit hype. I hope it comes out and I hope it's good. I also would like it if they make it so you can play in VR or flat, similar to how the first Subnautica did but with motion controls. I doubt they'll do that, it'd probably be much more work that wouldn't be worth it for them but ooh, I sure would love that. That's just a fun fantasy though. Like I said, I'm not letting myself get too hyped for it yet, so many things could still go wrong that might result in it not happening.
