Today’s game is Half Life 2. I heard it got a UI update specifically for Steam Deck, so I had to try it. I ended up playing way more than I meant too (made it all the way to the Boat Segment and got stuck on the helicopter fight). I forgot how damn good this game is, it’s hard for me to resist playing it too and procrastinating all my other titles. Though ig all that matters is I’m having fun.
I picked up the bucket in the photo at the train station and carried it as far as I could. I ended up getting all the way to the teleporter with it before sadly I lost it, ending what I’ve dubbed Bucket%. I found another one after that and carried it all the way to the sewage tunnels for fun, but accidentally dropped it and couldn’t get it back.
HL2 is one of my all time favorites, I enjoy going on a tour of City 17 while mowing down enemies, and solving puzzles.
For me the most interesting part of HL1 or HL2 is the journey when you enter The Citadel or Xen it’s a bit sad because the journey is over.
And then there’s the Episodes!
