    the “revolutionary” breakthroughs, which i experienced (so it’s subjective) we’re hl1 for graphics and hl2 for it’s physics engine. everything else felt like gradual improvements of those.

      ok, i should add that I’m not playing any so-called AAA games for a decade or two. they somehow always turned out to be a waste ;)

          yeah i was thinking to look into it. hl3, aka alyx sounds as much a tech demo as the two predecessors.

          just besides the price it feels to much like something that you buy, try out, have fun and leave in the shelf because it’s to much hassle to set up each time you wanna play sth.

          do you have experience with it?
