A masterpiece that is ahead of it's time. Only took me like twenty minutes to beat, but in those twenty minutes I also ate a sandwich and some biscuits, which made me enjoy myself. I eventually stopped paying attention to the game and just ate and ate. Then I went to the toilet and when I came back I found that I forgot to pause the game and I had died. Then I alt tabbed out of the game and watched an episode of House of Cards, checked my email, then came back to the game. Then I shot a thing and won the game. I then got up out of my seat, walked to the end of my room, then walked back and sat down again. Also my right shoulder was a bit itchy.

Tl;dr 500/4 It's OK -IGN

Half Life:Before is an emotional journey of pain, laughs and tears. This game is really amazing and here's why.

The game opens up with a cutscene, something we've always wanted in a Half Life game, and despite a big ♥♥♥ cutscene, we get no insight on what our goal is, who our main character is, what purpose he has in the Half Life universe, this is good because it makes the game more cinematic.
As we progress through the cargo ship which is the only level in the whole game, we fight our way through vortigaunts... but wait! Isn't this game supposed to be taking place before the first Half Life? Well it is you dumb ♥♥♥♥, those vortigaunts are there to pad the game out so we can experience more of this masterpiece. But we venture further on through a poorly designed level to reach an easy elevator puzzle which I wish I could dwell on but that was way too complex that even writing more about it would hurt my brain too much for me to pass out.
We then climb up the ladder and come face to face with a group of... enemy soldiers? Why are they here? How the hell should I know like I said this game is way more inticrated than you might expect. So we still get no explanation, again making it more enduring and cinematic. After we defeat three enemy soldiers we then come across an NPC. Who is he exactly? He doesn't explain himself, but in theory this stays consistent with the game's convuluted tone which is great.
We then backtrack all the way to the other side of the boat again and come across more enemy soldiers and monsters who magically teleported onto the boat. After we defeat them easily like every other enemy in the game we have to take a leap of faith.
The boss battle is easily the best part of the game, another cutscene takes place showing us something that could've easily been seen by the player in a control state. He chases us around in a massive circle with an awkward idle animation. We defeat him without breaking a sweat and the game ends, and I'm not ♥♥♥♥ing around when I say this, but the effort has all been put in the end credits, I'm not ♥♥♥♥ing joking.

Also the game has typos.

What the f*ck just happened?

The true story of Gabe Newell's founding of Valve.

Welp. Here's the deal.

This Mod. Had potential.

This Mod. It had decent scripting. Just enough to make you feel the game for what it is instead of guiding you thorugh the story.

This Mod. It talked of going to the Black mesa complex. Of being a winner. Andrew Winner. of a special artifact.

It had Weapons in it. It had new skins. It did have New Levels,a nd new textures. The ingredients for a possibly good mod- the possibility of good gameplay, and a new story.

This Mod. it was not that.

It took thirty eight minutes to complete.

The battles were not stunning. Rather, they were forced. Rushed. It was artificial difficulty.

I felt like I was playing a sea-based Half Life: Uplink (We all know that terrible movie...)

This mod. There were not true puzzles. Just small "hit this and it falls over" periods.

This mod. It did not have -true- new weapons. Merely reskins.

It had potential.

But it was not great.

If you seek a small run-and-gun, then go ahead... Add this to your list of games. but if you want a true half-life style challenge... this is not it. I can only hope this is just the first part of a larger thing.

這個模組最近加入到STEAM

雖然因為劇情過於短的關係被很多人批評

其實發在STEAM上之前完全沒有看過這模組!

貌似是高登實驗室前的故事?

總之節奏很快! 還是跟HL1一樣要動點小頭腦! 在這邊就不劇透了!

這款對於戰慄時空有愛的玩家

我很推薦去試試看!

剛剛抓下來玩後,真的很快就破玩了

不過這過程中

我找到了些回憶跟感動.

戰慄時空對物件的精緻

雖然畫面不好

但物件的細節都很可愛

例如可以翻開的雜誌

在船主控制會動的雷達

我想在HL1的那時代

這些細節一定很精緻了

看到食腦蟲 , 感覺好開心

還有很多經典怪物

真的很開心!



PS: 武器模組有比較精緻了 , 手槍很好看!

博士好HD! 走路連領帶都會甩! 哈哈!
