Despite many surprises, there are enough health packs and ammunition to get your through the game on Medium difficulty without significant problems. Due to specific animations of some models, it is advisable to turn off HD Pack, but if you don't mind a few graphic inconveniences, you will be able to finish the game with it turned on. The action level increases very well with your advancement towards the end, but it has some problematic moments. Sometimes the factions are slaughtering each other, which gives you the opportunity to skillfully avoid confrontation, and carry out your task without fighting. The fights with the opponents are very good, not only because of their good positioning, but also because of their numbers.

The map architecture is not bad, but it is commendable that it keeps improving considerably during your journey to the end. I liked both, the dialogues between you and other characters, and notes, which give you some insights into past and present happenings in Black Mesa. The story takes place in parallel with the original incident, but in another part of the laboratory complex. But at that moment everything goes wrong. ![]() Omstein, is fed up with your incompetence and fires you at the spot.
