Been thinking about getting back into this for a while and I have two days off so I think I'll have some as well.

Said **** it and restarted Half-Life 2. Yeah the shooting is kind of dated but the variety of enemies, in both design and function, is incredibly engaging; the pacing is tense but never feels repetitive like a CoD; sound design is nerve wracking at times with its general lack of music but great sound effects that foreshadow certain types of enemies; I love the moderately difficult environmental puzzles that break up combat but are never truly frustrating; and the lack of cutscenes (that Mic hates so much) or level changes makes this the video game equivalent of a long-take movie scene that keeps the momentum and player investment high and constant.

Even if the shooting isn't as polished as a Halo game Half-Life 2 is just so satisfying to play as a whole. It probably helps that it has that retro shooter feel from the late 90s/early-00s from before CoD and Halo changed the way the genre was put together so that they're often more like roller coasters with cover. I don't know if modern gamers would get as much as I do from that since it's probably a fair amount of nostalgia.
