Some of the changes in Black Mesa Source's story seem a little bit fanfictiony and not-quite-what-Valve-would-do, but I do have to give them props for one good example of environmental storytelling: that one end-of-chapter scene they adapted from the original where the two soldiers jump you with the intention of dropping you in a trash compactor, and when you wake up and escape, you find a room with a bunch of dead headcrabs, the dismembered corpse of one soldier, and an inaccessible closet where you can see a second soldier sitting there, towards the end of the process of being turned into a headcrab-zombie. That's like ... it's flawless, if you're paying attention. You know exactly what happened here. There's no mysteries left.

Black Mesa - Interloper

Black Mesa Interloper is actually good, the 'I got bored and decided to make this' rant.

So like... you jump through the Lambda Core teleporter and are greeted by this absolutely stunning skybox in Xen, and towering in the distance is the Nihilanth's lair, the 'Interloper Tower' as I like to call it. And you spend a good couple of hours moving your way slowly across Xen towards it.

Until you're finally standing at the base of this absolutely massive megastructure. Journey less than half over because you've still got to climb it.

And the god damn chapter makes you feel that climb. That's always something I've felt HL2s Citadel lacked, its like 8 kms tall in lore but it does not feel like anything other than a skyscraper, which after towering over you for much of the game is so anticlimactic. Like yeah the Super Gravity Gun is nice but the tower don't feel like the behemoth its supposed to.

Interloper does, and it is glorious. It's a slog as you slowly push your way up, as the Nihilanth throws all these forces at you trying to stop you from ascending, and you're burning through your ammo until, when you're close to running out, you come across the Gluon Gun recharging crystals and it goes wild. The tower itself is an absolutely amazing bit of worldbuilding too, it's like a massive living organism with technology sewn into it, enslaved by the Nihilanth to produce Alien Grunts like everything else in the factory.

And you climb, and climb. Reach the elevator and ascend, you can feel Nihilanth's desperation as you get closer. You're hurting, and tired and running on fumes but its a battle of wills between the two of you as to who will crack first.

Until you, at long last triumph, and are standing at the top of all that, overlooking everything you've come through over the last third of the game, conquering the tower. The catharsis of this moment would simply not have worked if the tower was half that height. Without the struggle the payoff is nothing.

This chapter is good, and I only wish the Citadel was like it. Imagine getting stocked up by Barney right before entering the Citadel, only to slowly burn ammo ascending through the Combine's manufacturing plants, going up past Striders and weapons and up to ships. And then hitting the confiscation field just as your ammo is hurting. And then bam, Super Gravity Gun. And then the catharsis of finally reaching the top and knocking Breen of the pedestal you've fought tooth and nail all the way up.

not to be annoying but i sincerely think black mesa is. NOT TALKED ABOUT ENOUGH!!!! i know that hl1 is a classic and should be cherished, and i do cherish it, but holy shit you cant tell me that black mesa isnt an INCREDIBLE remake. i hate remakes usually but black mesa is literally one of my fav hl games and it isnt even official. its a fan project & passion project and it is so fucking genuinely amazing. i love the way it uses the style and graphics of hl2 but breathes life into it with the fucking INCREDIBLE environment + environmental storytelling of hl1 and incredible shading + textures.

its not hyperrealistic, but instead it has this middle ground which pulls you in and is so visually engaging its astounding. the sound design is so well done, the entire thing feels so cinematic but its not like those annoyinf "yer just playing a movie theres no gameplay" games"-- it FUCKS. black mesa needs so so much love and im so autistic over it.

i fucking started CRYING when i started the Xen chapter cause iys just. so. pretty. its so gorgeous. holy shit.

also i remember friends of mine saying like "i dont like the game cause its broken" and ummm? scratches head. my game is far from broken, it works completely fine so ? help? only time the game broke was when it crashed but thats cause i turned the rendering shit all the way up as an experiment LMAO

The lost Half Life game, Codename: Gordon!

Codename: Gordon began development in mid-2003. Starting as a fan-project by Paul "X-Tender" Kamma. During development, the project was noticed by the co-founder of Nuclearvision Entertainment and the company soon began work with Kamma. Codename was originally planned to be released for the Nintendo DS, but upon being noticed by Valve, it was "adopted" by Valve and made an offical part of their Half Life roster.

"Initially, Codename: Gordon was supposed to receive several updates, including a second bonus game which would be unlocked after finishing the game. However, Paul Kamma announced that the update was canceled. The game is no longer available on the Steam store, due to Nuclearvision Entertainment's collapse, which leads to the official company's site' removal. As the access to the site is hardcoded into the game, Valve was forced to remove it from the Steam catalog. However, its depot hasn't been removed from content servers so the game is downloadable using protocol commands or command line parameters." -Half Life wiki

GAMEPLAY, CHARACTERS, AND INSTALLATION UNDER THE CUT!

Despite being hidden by steam, the game can still be downloaded for free. Copy " steam://install/92 " into your prefered search engine and there should be a steam popup allowing you to download. There's only six simple levels, and can easily be beat in under 15 minutes.
