    This mod gives off the vibes of old classic like Hour-Glass and Timeline series. Ah, the times of old HL1 mods, when half the mods had creative stories like this!

  • @cecilharvey2005
    @cecilharvey2005 5 дней назад +34

    It's an alright mod in my opinion. My only real complaint about the game is that it's mostly all just combat with story bits in between each map and that's about it. If there was a bit more stuff to do in between combat like maybe some small puzzles or something then I'd say that it's a great mod but as is, it's a pretty decent mod. Just wish some of the maps weren't so confusing and there was more stuff in the game to break up the combat.

    • @EduardoProa
      @EduardoProa 3 дня назад +7

      That's not an oversight though, it's deliberate, the mod is meant to feel like an old-school shooter, like the first Doom games, Quake, Wolfenstein.
      Think Doom for example, you go through the level at a fast pace killing everything you see, reach a room, press a button, you do that four or five more times and then you get a bit of story in form of a wall of text.
      It says it right in the store page "Various Combine enemies will be stationed in each period to bar your way, in tight, close-quarters combat intended to channel the retro shooter vibe."
      It's like complaining about there not being too much plot in a Madden game.

    The Burton Equation is fun but i don't agree calling this one the best Half-Life 2 mod of the year.

    It's honestly pretty alright. I was hoping it would be way better because the idea for the game is awesome, but it's just pretty average. Also since the areas are so small and claustrophobic half the time the combine just stand there and shoot at you and never move and kind of makes it pretty boring.
