This mod was the very first Half-life 2 mod I have seen and has completed changed my way of playing games and looking at mods. Before, I was merely an ignorant who thought mods were nothing more that virus-inducing modifications that made your guns shoot wooden logs, spawn teleporters randomly, and maybe crash your computer. But then I saw a video walkthrough of this mod. My first thought was "Did steam release a new Half-life game?" I was delightfully wrong. This was a mod, a personally developed game by a half-life 2 fan like myself. With a little research, I stumbled onto a place called Moddb, where hundreds of free game mods were being developed. With no money and adamant parents, this discovery incited by Minerva was fantastic. With the only games I had in the Orange Box, I can download hundreds(actually twenty since most mods are screwed up) of games that are even better than the Orange Box, with this mod topping them all!
I praise the existence of this mod for introducing me to a whole new universe of entertainment. I praise the superior mapping of this mod, making every time I play a fresh new experience. I praise the difficulty curb of this game. Most of the time when I'm caught in a frustrating spot I would normally blame the game developer, but this mod was so good that I could only find fault in my play style. I praise the story and especially the ending of this mod, you wont find yourself randomly fading to a black screen!
If this wasn't the mod that introduced me to the modding universe, I would only give it a 10/10, but since it is that very mod, Minerva rightfully deserves a 100/10. But this damn system only lets me give a 10. Excellent work CargoCult!
P.S. I scorn all who congratulates Adam's new job in Valve, for my anticipation for Minerva's next release exceeds far more than that I could have for any of Valve's videogame releases!
