I'd rather play the cinematic mod, RTX Remix is terrible software.
I can barely run this with dlss at performance and even then it looks terrible with artifacts everywhere and just blurry gameplay in general, honestly reusing the assets and installing mmod would be a better way to play HL2.

Appreciate the effort of course but this RTX remake will never be good unless you have a 5090 and money to pay the insane electricity bill.

Source games don't really need raytracing to look better, look at Black Mesa or even the cinematic mod with improved lighting, that's all we need, improvements to the source engine.

I've played CS:GO/CS2 for around 8 years now and never left a review for some reason but here it is now. The new engine update from Source > Source 2 changed the performance and visual quality for the better, however the movement and other important things changed which took getting used to. The new Vulkan implementation is also a great addition to the native linux version which improves performance instead of using DXVK.

One crucial thing that was removed was Cache, everyone loved cache and valve just nuked it from CS2 so we can no longer enjoy it on official matchmaking servers. I also miss cobblestone and would love to have it back, please add it back Gabe I beg you.

The VAC issue has always been here with lots of cheaters ruining games, especially in premier mode. I do like that VAC isn't in the kernel being invasive but at the same time it isn't super effective either.

Most players lost the ability to take part in overwatch which was crucial to getting cheaters banned quickly with players reviewing match replays and selecting an option to explain what was happening, if the player was using wallhack, aimbot or something simple such as griefing in matches the reviewing players could select that option to inform valve of their findings. Sure a few people got false banned but it helped a lot with getting a lot of cheaters banned fast too.

More often in my leetify I see players getting banned more often which is a good sign but it still isn't happening fast enough, we cannot enjoy the game with the amount of cheaters running around and most of them are "legit cheating" which means mostly using ESP (Wallhack) and trying to keep as legit looking as possible. Back in CS:GO times a lot of people liked to ragehack so it was easier to spot them.

I will still recommend the game of course because I enjoy it but this review is something to look at and consider for sure. Giving the players control again (Overwatch) is a step in the right direction, we need it back.

Honestly I was mad when this game first came out, a HL game with VR only support. But once I got my quest 2 I bought this game and loved it. It has been a while since a half life game was released by valve but this was a great addition, however where is Half Life 3?

The story, mechanics, upgrading, shooting and big maps are great, source 2 has a lot of potential and HL:A only shows part of it. I would 100% recommend buying this game if you're a fan of the Half Life franchise, you should play the rest of the games first though since it shows spoilers for one of the original HL2 games.

The graphics are great and the performance is excellent compared to other PCVR games (It also runs great on Linux).

There are mods for Half Life and Half Life 2 if you want to play the originals in VR.

The developer has put a lot of effort into this game, it has challenging levels and takes a bit to complete. The co-op is great!

I never thought much about this game when I first heard about it but thought I'd give it a try. A robocop game seems interesting and it was quite good. The campaign, story and mechanics of the game are great, you have the option to do side quests too if you want to get more out of the game. The campaign took me around 10 hours to complete so it's decently long. You have the options to upgrade different skills and upgrade your pistol.

The game has some bad optimisation issues though especially with proton, you have to use DLSS or FSR for best performance but once you get the framerate sorted it's a fun game. I believe that this is down to their DX12 implementation, I've heard you can use DX11 but I never managed to get it to switch.

I never actually got around to playing this for a while for some reason, funnily enough, Dead by Daylight got me more interested in it. It's got a very good campaign and story, allowing you to play two separate campaigns with different characters that meet each other in their stories. It has a few puzzles and can be challenging at times but it's very fun to run around and solve them. It's the best of both worlds with FPS and mystery puzzles to solve. Would 100% recommend.

Pretty decent campaign, I wouldn't spend £54 on it though. Pretty much a soviet bioshock with flying cities and a small underwater complex kinda like Rapture I guess, best of both worlds. Can't wait for the DLC to come out and I'm very impressed that they decided to use Unreal Engine to develop the game which has caused the game to have very few bugs on release unlike others. Good combat, campaign and graphics, also runs pretty well on my 8GB RTX 3080 with almost max graphics and RTX enabled (of course). Don't fully take my opinion though, I seem to fall in love with a lot of campaigns that people dislike. Well made game with a longer than expected campaign, took me around 11 hours to complete.

Probably one of the best campaigns I've played through in a while, I personally love games for the stories and this one was amazing. It's amazing how you're presented with multiple challenging options which can change the outcome of the entire story.

Well worth the £1.29 (sale) I spent, 10/10 game.
If you seriously put the price back to £12.99 ♥♥♥♥ you lol.

Pretty good story, not as scary as the first one tbh. Still made me jump in a few scenes but overall it wasn't as scary as the first one.
