Will Black Mesa replace Half Life 1 for you?

I will not guessing before i see a final release of BM. But im sure the replacing got direct depense on gamer’s age - I know many ppl who definitely would answer “yes”.

atm its replacing the grandma no one cares about

It better do since fuck if I ever played that old piece of shit Half-Life game. Look at those polygons god damn.

Ahahaha okay guys, I’m leaving now.

we’ll have to see. I am hoping it will. I miss the old half-life days and hope this will bring back some of that fun.

hoping it will since my coppy of HL finaly stoped working

I wish it will… I can only wish though.

… add it to steam?

Thing about Half-life is that it has that good old 90’s feel. Which brings back not only memories of how advance Half-life was, but the easy (alcohol) induced life that those years held. So it’s not really possible to replace it – only to improve upon it.

Tell you what though, in 15 or more years I’ll probably nostalgia about these forums just as much as Half-life. Not to mention the inevitable following years of playing Black Mesa and it’s many mods.

Truth be told, I originally did not beat Half-life on PC. I played it on PC first, but never finished it because I had never played a FPS before that included vertical aiming. Basically I got to, “we got hostiles” and the marines were so hard for someone new at the style that I got discouraged.

Years later after a lot of practice on Call of duty games and system shock, I picked it up on PS2 (which is just as good as the PC version, don’t know why it gets hate). I beat it there, but for some reason it was like being in the 90’s all over again.
That’s what I hope Black Mesa captures. Though it probably wont, I hope it does a little.

This song alone reminds me of the good old 90’s. This song has so many memories attached to it.

Back in the day when people only bought like one game a year, I would always recommend Half-life.
Long live the late 80’s to late 90’s.

No, I don’t think Black Mesa will replace Half-Life 1 for me mainly because its never going to be released.

Shitty ungrounded opinion. Oh, also you are an idiot.

Can’t tell. It pretty much depends on how much Black Mesa Source will keep up to the original atmosphere and feelings of the game. And I’m not talking about nostalgia. For me I just want that old “trapped in the middle of nowhere, in a giant alien and marines infested research facility”-feeling back. I just love how the original Half-Life 1 started with this “there is work to be done”-feeling and then did put you in that escape scenario, in which you explore the entire complex and it’s surrounds. It is like as if you didn’t realize the entire time at all the size of the entire facility you were working at.

I really do hope it replaces it for me. It all depends on how well they replicate that feeling/atmosphere from HL everyone talks about. Still haven’t played episode 1 or 2 nor the portals so I’m waiting for this so I can play the entire saga through in preparation for HL3(if it ever comes out)

Considering I never played Half Life before I knew about Freeman’s Mind and only played the original a couple times and never beat it, I’m probably just gonna play this one more. Playing the original again is usually for nostalgia, something I don’t have considering I never beat it and played it more recently. I’ll just play the remake thanks.

Yes, very yes.

No, BMS multiplayer will replace hldms, however (assuming bmsdm has more players/servers)

hldms’s community is deader than most fags assume this mod is.

/fixed for optimism

If I can do this in Black mesa, then yes, it will replace the original.

(random first post eh?)

I don’t see why you wouldn’t be able to do that in Black Mesa, but this really isn’t the place to ask.

Yes it will. I completed hl beta 15+ times, hl :s ource 25+ times, so i think i newer play them again. Time to complete bm 30+times.

No it’s not. That’s still negative as fuck. :confused:
