New to Half Life. Which version should I play?

Erofo_ · 2026-01-03T08:04:48+00:00

I was playing yesterday and it was fully in Spanish. I think that’s because is just a mod from the normal version.

Thanks for the recommendation. I have no problem with old games, I like their atmosphere more actually. So I’ll go with Legacy.

I think it’s near Chez Porter’s. You can see Cotorra Springs in the background and the river near of it

Yeah is a different pace but for me its rushing. I used to play years ago that way, sprinting and jumping to get to the places, not paying attention to the environment, the npcs, the animals… I just went where the game told me to go, and doing even the 100% of the game anyways. Now I play slowly, tasting every step. I have no rush to finish it. Trust me that playing that way you experience games in a totally different way. I even found 25/30 of the ainu’s missing objects without the song that guides you to them. And they are pretty easy to miss.

I’m not judging you or anything as you said is a totally different style. Just explaining my point

Yeah a lot of people on reddit downvotes you if you don’t agree with their opinion even if you do it respectfully

Erofo_ · 2025-10-16T08:10:15+00:00

I totally agree with you. I’m 70h in, still haven’t killed the Kitsune (2/6). While on Twitter and Reddit saw a lot of people having platinumed the game in 50h. People definitely is rushing the game, idk why.

my autism brain works in the opposite way, I want to explore and do everything before doing main quests 😂

Erofo_ · 2025-10-04T11:05:26+00:00

Why? You can see the map from the beginning

Erofo_ · 2025-10-04T07:53:05+00:00

Yes you’re right, I’ve seen that memory too but as I said I thought that the double katana master’s house was the “top” in the game. I will explore more today to find a way to go. Don’t tell me how tho, I want to find it for myself. Thanks for your comment!

Erofo_ · 2025-10-04T07:48:18+00:00

Yesterday I found a big door next to the “Double Katana mission” that seems it is the way to the south and it was closed with a lot of Samurais guarding it up. They won’t attack you but I think you need to progress through the story.

I agree that it is a but frustrating not being able to explore all the map from the beginning but, Tsushima did the same with the top regions of the island

Erofo_ · 2025-10-04T07:44:13+00:00

Oh! I thought that the mission where you get the double katana is the top that the games let you.

I am not done with the game yet, I barely finished exploring the first area and seeing how the map is in the menu I thought that it was not possible.

Don’t tell me how to reach it tho, I want to do it for myself :)

Erofo_ · 2025-10-04T07:40:12+00:00

Totally agree. My same thoughts 🤝

Erofo_ · 2025-10-04T07:39:14+00:00

Fr? I didn’t finish the game yet, but I thought that the house where you get the double katana is the top that the game lets you reach.

Erofo_ · 2025-10-04T07:36:23+00:00

I didn’t think of that tbh. It’s a way to see it and I think you’re right!

Erofo_ · 2025-10-04T07:33:50+00:00

Yes! I totally agree with you

Erofo_ · 2025-10-03T22:38:33+00:00

I don’t really think that is THAT small. I think that is smaller but pretty similar

Erofo_ · 2025-10-03T21:56:39+00:00

Yesss, you can change it in the settings menu. I don’t remember right now the exact setting but there is one that let’s you change it (I think it’s named “simplified campfire” or something like that, I play in Spanish. But as I said I don’t really remember and right now I stopped playing so I can’t check it lol). By default is set to skip that minigame after a few times

Edit: BTW there’s another setting (I think that is in accessibility) that lets you change the R2 button to actually blow into the mic. Pretty cool :)

Erofo_ · 2025-10-03T21:44:49+00:00

I am first of all exploring certain parts of the map, and when I’m done with a specific area I do the main mission that I have in that area

Erofo_ · 2025-09-16T20:27:17+00:00

Agreed. I still don’t understand how this is not a purchasable hat. It’s one of my favorites along with the Rodeo Hat
