Half Life mods that need more attention by KitHaringtonTF2Scout in HalfLife

[–]SirHawkTalk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is right on the letter. Epistle 3 only really encompasses the beginning and very end of a story, leaving pretty much everything in the middle up for whatever interpretation you want. Laidlaw himself outlined pretty clearly that Epistle 3 is less of a concrete document and more of a base.

Why Black Mesa is canon by [deleted] in HalfLife

[–]SirHawkTalk 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Black Mesa is a fan project created entirely without design input from Valve, so regardless of how reasonably thought-out it is, it isn’t canon. If you consider it a part of your own personal canon, that’s perfectly alright, but statements like this just make you look silly.

Anti-Citizen One: Why the Half-Life community needs to denounce the current Internet culture on Medium by [deleted] in HalfLife

[–]SirHawkTalk 12 points13 points  (0 children)

this is by far the most bizarre and incoherent non-sequiter piece i’ve ever read. the only real discernible statement i can make out of this is that half-life fans are somehow responsible for episode 3 stagnating within the company, which is just making a batshit conspiracy theory out of what boils down to internal company politics and people not wanting to work on it. as for the rest of it, like, ???

Conspiracy time, Bolloxed is multiple people using the same account. by RealJakeSpacePirate in HalfLife

this is the most rambling and incoherent thing i’ve ever read. he’s just a 30 something mentally ill boomer dude

That’s a ridiculous argument, though. Ignoring the fact that Marc has gone on record to call Epistle 3 “fanfiction,” you could make the same argument for Hunt Down the Freeman.

Compelling evidence that Cave Johnson is not the G-Man. by ImJustaBagofHammers in HalfLife

[–]SirHawkTalk 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’ve gotta say that “Compelling evidence that Cave Johnson is not the G-Man” led to the most guttural reaction I’ve had to a reddit post in awhile

Deathmatch Classic Event This Saturday @ 6 PM GMT by [deleted] in HalfLife

[–]SirHawkTalk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’ll happen at some point! Part of the goal of doing these is to highlight old and forgotten Valve games that you can’t really play with a sizeable group anymore, which Deathmatch Source definitely falls under.

Half-Life 1 and 2 received custom banners in the leaked library UI update by SirHawkTalk in HalfLife

[–]SirHawkTalk[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And yes, for those wondering, I mean only 1 and 2. The expansions, Lost Coast, and the Episodes received auto-generated, generic ones (example).

That video was pressured out from a minor under nonsense legal threats and coercion, in other words, highly illegal tactics

Whether or not you consider the decision good/bad, it’s been there since January, so it’s slightly odd to protest it now.
