>Acting like the Havok physics in HL2 weren't the best part and the Gravity Gun one of the best weapons in gaming
>half life alyx is an aggressive physics simulator
>Misses it being a revolutionary VR game which sets the bar for future titles
>the original game is just a good videogame but the rest of the series for the last 30 years have been nothing but gimmicks
>Misses that HL1 was also a tech demo for numerous things such as complex AI, integrated storytelling without cutscenes, realistic protagonists, squad-based enemies, lesser degrees of physics and detailed interconnected levels which look like real locations
I'm thinking retarded. Every Valve game is a showcase of new tech, that's their style, but they do it seamlessly while making amazing games. Saying HL2 and HLA are "nothing but gimmicks" is deserving of being raped by a thousand gorillas
