Comments on: Gut Reaction – Half-Life http://www.planetphillip.com/posts/gut-reaction-half-life/ Finishing Half-Life is just the beginning!

I'm surprised that I've never seen that before, when I've always thought that the HEV suit could take it (aslong as its juiced up) It has some really good level design but although none of it blew me away I still found myself liking this mod. I think its because this place doesn't look like Black Mesa eventhough the textures are ones I think I've seen before, its skillful to make something different with the same set of tools. You fight all kinds of enemies except none of the big ones, and the mod is never challenging even in the one fight against grunts, I only died once against the assassins. There where some surprises like the announcer system saying "Freeman it's over", and Nihilanth shouting your name which was some good foreshadowing. Its pretty long to clocking over half an hour.

Fun gameplay, good design, a nice story. very well structured with a clear trajectory towards a very satisfying finale. Some might not like the xenian ending, but I loved it.

It's a little short but has some interesting gameplay. A pleasant way to while away an afternoon. This mod is one of the better mods that I’ve run across.

Glad you've enjoyed it. I cant believe its been 10 years since I built this thing, and also that Half Life is that old!Thanks for all the kind words. It took me many hours to build this thing. I havent really touched it since I released it. I know its not perfect but its gotten a lot of good reviews so it must be doing something right. :)Enjoy!Tim Hey guys…I recently googled this mod just to see if it was still out there and what do you know!

This old stuff is really refreshing to go back to. Good mix of fighting humans and aliens and solving 'the way through'. Properly developing adventure story with a real climactic ending. Best is the colouring and lighting - a visual treat. Great mod. This old stuff is really refreshing to go back to. Good mix of fighting humans and aliens and solving ‘the way through’.
