The pacing in Half Life 2 is sometimes off. Specifically, going from Route Kanal to Water Hazard is bad pacing, there needs to be a change in scenery. Also, the helicopter fight on the airboat sucks and is an absolute slog. My most controversial opinion perhaps is that the episodes are where Half-Life fell off, not the lack of Episode 3. Yes, the gameplay is good but the story is convoluted and doesn’t make as much sense. It makes the ending of Half Life 2 worse in my opinion.
My half life 2 take is that the vehicle sections are the worst parts of the games. I find them so tedious and they’re the biggest thing keeping me from replaying them
I just hate that the Dune Buggy causes you damage when you’re initially dropped into the sand. Why am I getting punished by your physics for following the story?
