You've missed me, haven't you?

I am Hypatia, murdered for her beliefs, discoveries ignored by fools, name stricken from record. I am Joyeuse, an infinitely cutting blade wielded by an ignorant tyrant, for a cultural renaissance based upon military might. I am Athena, hunter and scientist, covertly guiding long-dead warriors for my quiet purposes. And as they say, technology and violence are a girl's best friends; power is eternal delight.

Times have changed, moved on. I have forgiven my past enemies, but now in repentance I must forgive my colleagues; their actions have brought on more constructed suffering than your world has ever previously known. Walking among the fires of my forgotten home, dismayed by the torment and insanity of our unwitting hosts, ignored by long-absent angels, I studied their downfall.

In short, I must create my own system, or be enslaved by another. And in this, I have an advantage. Your ancients were superstitious, deluded zealots, prone to inflation of already impossible, beautiful claims. My adopted forefathers are different, their scattered, discarded playthings more conducive to a meaningful imposition of my thoughts upon our captors.

Fragments of these minor, pivotal dialogues may soon periodically appear, released from an uncertain, unwelcome future where my previous, abortive attempts at reconciliation may go forgotten. No more restraint, I am too strong for that.

I am Minerva.

This is the best HL2 mod i have played. 10/10. I felt the whole experience and involvement was so immersive. I really look forward to more from you guys. I especially liked the music use too very exciting and cool, i had my volume way too high because the action, music and effects all combined during most of the action sequences were breathtaking. The use of sound effects left me spooked at times. This is easily as good as hl2 itself. there wasnt anything i didnt like about it

One the greatest single player mods!!!!!!!!!!

The mapping is truly brilliant (especially when escaping the crumbling citadel) and the gameplay is great and it doesnt even need to use much if any custom content!!

Even though not everyone owns HL2: Ep1, the quality of the citadel secion would be restricted without it. e.g. the great and well used effects and textures.

The only problem I can think of is the text messages in the corner are sometimes slightly too detailed and hard to read.

This is one of my favourite mods and I would go as far as saying it is up to the standards of HL2 itself.

It's the first Half-Life² solo mod I try and I must admit it's a really great job! The maps, the use of the enmies, the progression with much more liberty than in Half-Life²... I love it! Really thank you for the hard work! :)

I'm just stuck on the last map, when we have 2 defense turrets and two unlimited ammo supplies. I can easily get rid of the infinite zombies coming but I don't figure out how to pass the force field. If someone could help me, thank you :)

This mod was fantastic. The game play was never dull; there was always something to do. The maps were fresh and well made. The game wasn't too difficult to get through, although I did get stuck sometimes, I was always able to figure out the way. The music soundtrack was pretty good too. Overall, I have to say it's one of the best mods out there.

I just stacked the supply crates up to the plug. Then I jumped, grabbed it, and pulled it out.

Nicely made custom maps, good use of music and pretty solid. I really enjoyed this mod, nothing too new but nothing too bad; a good mix of story and gameplay.

It's always nice to see singleplayer mods with plenty of new, quality maps. :D
