I hate Half-Life: Before even more after replaying it, the level design is abysmal, they just placed down enemies with no purpose, there are way too many enemies, the difficulty randomly spikes, and the puzzles were just "make a box tower to continue".
The audio cant be turned down so it was blasting in my ears and it played the wrong songs in the wrong areas, like for example, the battle theme played when nothing was near me.
The Story was trash, it was about the military attacking the cargo ship with the Xen crystal from the original half-life, and some scientists made a powerful creature, which eats the Xen crystal after you free this guy who the military captured. The creature instantly kills you if you are grabbed by its tentacle and it is above you so you have to look up constantly, so you may bonk on a wall or get cornered by the boss, and the creature is also as fast as you which is terrible gameplay-wise. The boss is also just the Nihilanth but flipped downward. The only thing that is good about this game is that the ending looks alright and that this mod is only like 10 minutes at the most. 1/10 would not recommend to anyone.
