The car sequence could have used some weapons but in the same token, running down bad guys was good enough for me. Valve really put time into making sure that you could conserve your ammo and use your environment to help you fight then they have in the past.Īlso, with the combination of Portal, they've introduced ALOT of interesting points and questions to be asked about what's going on in the HL2 universe.
Also, while I agree that there one too many lulls in the action, I still welcomed them because the heavy action sections could become tedious on harder difficulties. I was actually happy to not do the usual building/apartment/house affair and found the caves to be a nice unexpected portion of the game. I'm not a critic on level design so I won't get into that. I gotta agree with Linkrift, while i didn't think it was great it was still alot of fun.
