@@kel_skiThe music paired with the scripted sequences are amazing. I hated climbing back up to fire the rocket to kill the tentacles in the original and was standing in the doorway dreading it on my first playthrough of black mesa. Then I heard the guitar go off. All dread was replaced with adrenaline as a sprinted past the tentacles and up the ladders and fired the rocket at the end of the solo. I love this games music so much.

The Power Up chapter is not this dark in the original Half Life, and was not like this in the initial release of Black Mesa. Later they updated it, so when the Gargantua hits the generators at the start the power goes out. The chapter name makes more sense that way, and is more immersive.

so glad you are going to make more fallout 2 streams, even though they arent getting the same amount of views as your HL:Alyx streams I really enjoy and appreciate them. Love your content, keep being (yourself)amazing. -Local Kelski Resident
Love these. Love it when players want to actually listen to dialogue and not skip past :') Also word of advice, especially for Surface Tension/Forget About Freeman - there's a lot of cinematic moments. Just watch the scenes/fights, a lot of people run in and miss the spectacle
4:40:12 This is one of the reasons why I prefer OG combat specifically with the HECU. Because the marines could only do one action at a time (run, shoot, ect.), you had more openings to be aggressive and creative. You learned the rhythm of how they behaved. There was a *choreography* to the fights. The black Mesa marines just shoot at you all the time. Hence, to balance it, they give you more health. I love Black Mesa, but this is the biggest gripe I have with it.
Yeah, the main thing about Half-Life's marine combat was the need to move around and get closer or further away from the enemies to get a good vantage point. But in Black Mesa the marines do suppressive fire and have faster reaction times, so it's a lot harder to do this in my opinion. Also, the marines being able to shoot and move around at the same time makes the grenades and any other way to distract the marines have less practicality. Unless you're really good at predicting Black Mesa's marines or hitting headshots, your only option is to either exchange fire or set traps. Snarks sort of revive the strategy but you get those basically halfway through the game.
I'm so glad my Commander Shepard, Gordon, and Master Chief crossover R34 joke was seen and reacted to lmao a bit after 3:36:25 Also Kelski, what about non-FPS games to be added as experience, like Diablo 1 and Diablo 2 Resurrected, or even Path of Exile?
I`ve played through this game at least 6 times (100% achievements and at least 100 hours on steam) and I never knew you could bring the security guard with you up the rocket prep area. What the actual fuck.
1:06:40 I actually consider HL1 to be the better game because of this. HL2 lacked environment, enemy, and weapon variety. Ravenholm and the Citadel are the only standout sections in my opinion, the rest just blends together.
Dunno, HL1 lacks the different ways to navigate, and has a lot of parts that You could literally cut and would end up with a better product (basically what Black mesa did), so thinks like the bridge and all the highway are something that if HL2 had stick to the concept just wouldnt be posible.
It's so funny hearing him constantly talk about there being no helmet when there absolutely was. Like, it was in HL1 OG, and somehow he never saw it. Lol.
You can get stuff from the crates other than the supply crates. All breakable wooden crates can give items. It might be why you are always low on health, because you pass on the supplies you get from crates. Gotta smash em all!
Speaking all things half life... Ever read the comic "concerned" ??? The adventures of Gordon Frohman. ??? 😅 A webcomic by.... 🤔 Christopher C. Livingston 😁 there, I kinda remember that bit of info. 🎉
Your Half-Life 1 VOD appeared right when I finished HL1, Opposing Force and Blue Shift for the first time, when I was watching speedruns of those games. I stayed for the whole journey up until Alyx, but now Black Mesa is a game I've not played yet and with a broken heart I cannot watch these VODs yet. I will be back though, just waiting for a good discount on Black Mesa and some time to play it. You're easily my favorite youtuber right now, keep it up! By the way, ever thought about playing through the Witcher trilogy?
Gordon Freeman is technically 47 in that 47 years passed since he was born earth time but his stasis meant that the events of half life 2 and the episodes are in the same week long period as the black mesa incident for him, he basically went to sleep and woke up on that train the next day as far as his body's age is concerned or his perception of time for all we know
I wouldn't even say he was frozen, instead in his timeline the events of half life 2 is the day after black mesa, he's paused in time until Gman releases him
He didn't even fall asleep, he basically stepped into the portal in the tram and appeared in the train after being babbled at by an eldritch business man
On the topic of Gordon's voice, my head canon and apparently that of many other people, especially seeing as how Gordon works in the games and such, is that he's on the Autism spectrum, hence why he's so adept at figuring out, fidgeting with, and using firearms that he finds, why he's easily distracted, why Black Mesa personnel don't give him such a hard time, why he's mute, and so on. As someone with Autism, I can see it. Valve has yet to deny or confirm, so he could very well be Autistic.
3:59:15 I still find it crazy how I share the same exact name as one of the devs. I'm sure it's quite common, but it's always pretty neat to see.. Though Maclean is pronounced differently in my family, it being Scottish so instead of "MClean" it's pronounced as "Mac-lain". I remember stumbling across the locker when I played Black Mesa in 2017, and I was pretty surprised. But when I saw the credits and the first name was ALSO Ryan? I legit got up and threw my hands up like a dumbass victory pose bahahahahah!
You can use the Tau Cannon's push force as a starter for a fast bhop and I've seen some use it like rocket jump to get across a map. Extra: Seeing you can smooth bhop, I see this is a no problem for you to do it.
