Hi! My name is Marcel and I began learning GoldSrc modding back in 2020 by creating bad reskins. Now I'm learning Hammer towards being able to make an actual mod. That's pretty much it.
This mod has very beautiful visuals for an engine that came out over 20 years ago. The overall gameplay was fine, but I had moments where I had no idea how to progress. I also like the story and the way it isn't another "you are a part of the black mesa disaster, you have to get out of here" thing.
I love almost everything about this mod. I've played through it and I got stuck 2 times because I couldn't find an item or didn't know where to go. I had to use online gameplays sometimes to see where to go. The voice acting is alright, except for the obvious Russian accent. I didn't understand the ending. I do appreciate Portal/Half-Life references scattered all over the place.
This is very good. I mean like - very good. I love the level design and I love how this is a 2021 mod but still sticking to the old style of models and textures. It still feels like Half-Life. That's very good.
