TL;DR: Valve launched the Steam Frame VR headset with an Arm-based Snapdragon chip, aiming to run Half-Life: Alyx natively and streamed from PC. The new hardware features a “Frame Verified” status for optimized games, while rumors suggest two upcoming Half-Life titles supporting PC and VR cooperative play.



Hey, I would def play the Black Mesa version (of the og game, not blue shift) unless you really love that HL1 aesthetic or like things ‘untouched’ . No hate for the OG, I loved my first play-through, but I think the Black Mesa version is really good and mostly leaves things how they were but with more polish.
I agree with you on the rigidity of the gameplay, its kind of old school in that way. I was kind of jarred by it coming back after a decade and a bit. But it keeps putting down this… vibe, and keeps the gameplay constantly shifting, it payed of for me.
gotcha. Thanks. I do like time capsules ! but sometimes put off by the creaking, so to say. I did hear Black Mesa was very respectful of the original however
