    Always upvote HL2. My favorite game of all time.

    This could totally get me to finally get going and build a new gaming rig.

    I wish the team luck. I’m sure it’s not am easy task, looking at other, similar projects like Black Mesa, but the demo is stunning. Would love to see what Ravenholm looks like…

    There’s a few games I missed out on over the years, due to a long period where I had neither a console nor a GPU. HL is one of them… I’ve tried checking out some older games now I have a GPU but struggled to get into them due to the graphics.

    So I’ll 100% be getting stuck into this when it’s out! Big thanks to the team taking on this task.
