I was a play tester on this mod. Great opportunity to be apart of it. Really strong atmosphere, albeit very short and not super challenging or interactive.
Full review on my personal blog: Telvyphil.net
As of June 30th, 2021, this mod is so far in a really good place! It really captures the survival horror element of resident evil in terms of gameplay, while most/all of the assets being mainly from vanilla HL2.
That being stated, plus since most of it was made in vanilla hl2, most of the elements you'd see in resident evil like an inventory management UI and other design factors doesn't make this a complete remake, but it still holds up in terms of things like backtracking, puzzle solving and item collecting.
If this had a full team creating custom assets, models, viewmodels and gameplay changes, I'd see a great remake in the works. I'd love to see more of this turn out well!
Comatose video review: Youtube.com
Comatose is a short and sweet mod that suffers from many unfortunate flaws such as bad russian-to-english translation and general execution flaws. It's not terrible and has a nice style, plus its very short so you aren't really losing anything
HMS Defiance 2 video review: Youtube.com
HMS Defiance is a much bigger improvement than it's last iteration. It's still average at best but there is so much more with better story, gameplay, level design and so on. It's still flawed but it's way more interesting.
HMS Defiance 1 & 2 video review: Youtube.com
HMS Defiance is average at best. It isn't that good of a mod but it's not terribly bad. The mod feels very amateur so go easy on this one, understand that this was the mod developer's earliest mod so there really isn't much to see.
It's short, but atleast there is something of a story within it. Go in and don't expect anything fancy, just play through and appreciate that the developer will try bigger and better things in the future.
Nightmare House 2 video review: Youtube.com
Nightmare House 2 is a masterpiece of a mod and must be played by both Half-Life fans and horror fans alike.
Everything in this mod is thought out 100% from pacing, atmosphere, progression, gameplay and so on. The mod itself is stable, runs well on most machines and looks great visually and aesthetically
As a horror game it excels in everything and most of the things done in this mod are done at the professional level.
Did I forget to mention that they took an already amazing mod and made it even better with the 2015 update? Go play it and see the great changes made!
DayHard Video Review: Youtube.com
While DayHard is extremely flawed in various parts with broken triggers and scripted sequences along with gameplay bugs, its compensated by a great and unique buddy story in one of the most unique settings in any mod, let alone any other game I have ever seen.
It's very fun, does its humor really well, and the music is great and catchy. This mod has reboot potential and hopefully the devs can come back and make another DayHard esque game in the future.
FTW
Great mod, play it and enjoy, yet the music is WAY too loud and needs to be fixed, I could barely hear anything else besides the music, either than that its an excellent mod, download it and have fun
Minor textures appear as purple/black checker boards(probably my computer, I'm pretty not sure);purple/black texture eyes, either than that it needs to be updated. Its a fanastic mod, probably the most well made mod when it comes to level design, just play it
