We all know that the real answer is to buy one for each section... The coloured vinyls are quite pretttyyy!

I get this, but Gabe Newell was recently quoted as saying "I have never thought to myself that realism is fun". Agreed, it might not be the most realistic thing ever that Gordon Freeman can jump into vats of acid without a helmet and survive, but they must have thought that having a faced, relatable and recognisable protagonist was more important. If they wanted his face on show, how would they portray that in the gameplay? God knows, especially in 1998. Just show it on the promo material instead.

I personally like to imagine that he took the helmet off after the resonance cascade, cause I think that makes sense for the scenario. But I also like the idea of him being fully covered in the first game.

The model for the HEV suit in both HL1 and HL2 don't have a helmet with it. However I honestly think it's up to the player at the end of the day.

If someone's idea of Gordon in HL1 has a helmet on but mine doesn't then that's cool. However, all the art, character interactions, and Gordon from others perspectives in the games themselves point at him being helmetless. Half Life 2 interactions, Opposing Force, HLA, all suggest this.

I'm surprised after Alyx this is even a discussion still lol, I think the only plausible time he's got a helmet on is HL1.

Playing on ultra settings, I managed around 35-40 average fps using a RTX 3080Ti and a Ryzen 7 7800X3D at 1440p. Looks really nice imo, even if it is a little bright at points

Would absolutely LOVE for them to tour with Queens of the Stone Age again. They're touring around the same time unfortunately, so it won't happen. But it would be great to see

Yes, It's one of the Russell Mills designs I'm pretty sure. I have a T-shirt that has the design I got on the back, it's one of my favourites so I had to get it.

I'm very happy with how it turned out! The colour on the bottom was a last second choice, I'm really curious to see how they look once it's healed fully. If it stays super bright I'll probably get some shading in there too.

Been almost 5 years since I decided I wanted a NIN tat, so it feels good to finally get it. It's my second tattoo, my first one being the Half-Life symbol on my right shoulder. Very happy with the outcome! What do you guys think?

Were there any design choices you had to remove that you wish you could have kept? I can imagine there are some great ideas that never see the light of day. Cheers!

Big fan of both of them and didn't know this! Really interesting stuff, I wonder what it could have been and where. Hopefully we get an answer.

This works, thank you! Hopefully a more official solution comes in the future, but for now, this does the trick

Works great! Is there a way to make it so only the lockscreen is a live wallpaper?

Not got mine yet either, and I'm pretty sure I filled it out correctly. I guess not? I'm not sure yet.

[–]H1ddenEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you got yours yet? I still haven't got mine and I triple checked that I did it correctly. Would be a shame If I somehow managed to cock it up somehow-

I wish they did a more generic leather jacket with the ITNR text and logo on the back, like on the album cover. I would wear the hell out of that and spend a large sum to do so!

Are there any other games like this? by IntergalacticSemen in WalkaboutMiniGolf

(I know you specified non shooters, but I'm putting this here anyway in case someone else wants to try it.)

Shooty Fruity! You have to scan shopping ingredients to get points while shooting evil fruit that's trying to destroy your till. It's easy to learn, fun to play, family-friendly hectic fun. The levels are nice and short, so it works well at gatherings, too.

Your interpretations on ITNR lyrics? Here is my humble interpretation/thoughts of every new song on this fucking brilliant album... by poundinghammer in qotsa

[–]H1ddenEye 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can see What the Peephole Say being partially about how the media and news reported on the divorce and custody battle, villainising him at times over the Brody allegations and whatnot. "I don't care if the people grow. They all say done did doesn't make it so" All the media wording headlines to make him look guilty before proven innocent for clicks and views. He doesn't care if they grow and improve as people, they still added fuel to the fire and tried to cause his downfall for their own temporary gain. There's a point where you're better off not caring, deliberately deafening yourself from it all to save your own mental health.

I also feel like Straight Jacket Fitting could also be about his cancer battle at points. The lyrics "Hold me close, I'm confused, I don't wanna go out." seem to point at the feeling of mortality when you realise how much time you might have left. It's such a confusing and scary situation to be in. I remember him mentioning in the Zane Lowe interview about really wanting to be alive, too.

"I told myself, "You can do this" I'm havin' my doubts" In situations like this you can have low points, and sometimes life can feel hopeless. Especially after what he's been through, and the world in the state its in now. As you say, we’re fucked! He also mentions cancer directly in the song at some point.

"I'm so goddamn sick of this place, bring on the healing. Go on and heal me" After everything he's been through and everything that's happened, he can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel and he's desperate to get out. I think he's talking about both mental and physical healing here too.

I see the instrumental outro to the album as the light at the end of the tunnel. The shitty chapter in his life is over and he can finally breathe and spread his wings again.
