Because of this video, I have bought the game and I'm going to play it as my first half-life game. Also, apparently you can still buy from a bundle and it gives both Half-Life: Source and Half-Life Deathmatch: Source.

I've bought every hl game, and playing for the first time, should i take my money for hl source and hl deathmatch source?

I just came back to this video after this happened to see what people would say!

@@showey no, i haven't gmod

​@@TaxiCabColeyou sure that was the reason so modders can still use it?

Don't forget the hopping houndeye, that was funny.

I remember that but as recently as 2010.

@@Josh-le6lu Could be, the steam pipe update launched around 2012-15, and honestly i have no idea when the Half-Life update happened.

i got a trashy old computer so i should be fine

@@RUNTER_18yeah, they fixed those issues a long, long time ago.

​@@RUNTER_18ah you got a potato fantastic enjoy it man😁

Why is your milk green?

@Inhuman the literal

Truly the real Half-Life Decay was the game we broke along the way

It's in the name. Half life

I agree

Gabe finally got his real-time moss. Except instead of moss, it's degenerating code.

I am a Gen Z-er, and I remember G-Man Squad very vividly. Not sure how old it was when I watched it, but I definitely remember watching it when KZfaq still had stars and the yellow subscribe button. Feels weird being called one of the older ones, cuz that shit was honestly one of the reasons Source games hold a very special place in my heart.

@@SovietMarmalade For real man. It came out when I was in high school, so had to be at least 2008. Crackbone still lives rent-free in my head to this day.

@@RichterOvertime IM ON YOUR ROOF, I WAS LOOKING FOR MY CAR KEYS

Yep, and there's a lot of pre-release leftover assets in Half-Life Source. Such as textures for a dumpster model.

These red models are also found inside the models folder in Half-Life, not to mention the SDK

​@goobelius.gjoobertwrong

How to download it?

@@rasputin15832 thx bro, i needed this

I love HL:S Fixed. I have a lot of nostalgia attached to Half-Life: Source, as it was the first HL game I ever played back when I was a kid. I remember when I played it, it wasn't nearly as buggy and broken as it is now. I don't know what the hell happened to it but it's clear Valve doesn't really care about it anymore as much as it does the other HL games. HL:S Fixed fixes nearly everything wrong with HL:S and I love it.

I appreciate the effort the modders put into fixing the game, but Half-Life: Source just isn't Half-Life: Source without all the bugs. There's something charming about the jank that makes it more fun to play and laugh at. It's a case of being so bad it's good, I guess. If I wanted a stable version of Half-Life with prettier graphics, I'd probably use Xash.

@@jtsuxatgames i think a major part of why it gets jankier is when steam updates all source games, they dont even touch HL source. So it gets the tweaks to the engine but essentially for every other game and it confuses tf out of HL. Thus it looks and acts horrible.

"i dodged a bullet by not buying" what do yo mean????? Half-Life Source is the greatest gaming achievment ever. Our lord and saviour Valve created yet another masterpiece that they update liek every single fucking day. Half life source is a 10 out of 10 and you're pretending like its a broken shitty game for 9 USD no its not you dumbass. If you don't like half life source then you have atleast 17 IQ and should cry in your shame that you didn't buy half life sorse.

Similar experience here but with CS instead of Half Life. Had a horrible laptop and CS: Source would actually run better than the original Counter Strike for whatever ungodly reason.

@@mariosskl8347 That is baffling. Although with our crappy computer it could only render in Software mode, so the UI models were stuck as left-handed. With CS: Source the game still ran like crap but we had access to right-handed models.

As annoying as it surely is to have to work around such limitations part of me adores the whimsical quality of solutions like "I can continue playing the game semi normally if I just remember to swing the crowbar when walking into level transitions" like what the fuck could the game possibly by doing where that's the difference maker

"When in doubt, apply crowbar"

Yeah, this is something that also annoyed me when I got it bundled with every other Valve game.

Black Mesa is getting a Blue Shift mod, keep an eye out

@@quantizedansonit came out already just not complete now only up to I think chapter 4 and of has some parts ported

@@quantizedanson you cant play that in gmod, that was kinda their point :P

@@hat9527 Really? It's still Source, so it should work in gmod.

Care to explain more?

@@Rookie417 basically, chipsnapper made a post to the github issue tracker for steampipe, suggesting to add the gearbox hd models. however a gamebanana mod was linked and included retextured versions of the HD models, as well as world textures it got added to the HL:S beta branch, a week later the world textures were pulled, leaving only the HD models with fanmade textures and its still there today

it's okay, based marathon man

I think what he meant was 'milky' as in opaque liquid but it definitely made for some fun roasting in the comments about his milk selection

Someone make this a copypasta

This is a glimmer of hope in a big sea of negativity seen everywhere online, you deserve great things

@@adama865 I never expected AIDS to be a part of my story. I was a healthy, active guy in my mid-30s, working as a software engineer and enjoying all the things life had to offer. But when I started experiencing unexplained fatigue and a nagging pain in my butthole, I knew something wasn't right. The diagnosis was a shock: full-blown HIV AIDS. I was riddled with it. How could this happen to me? I was young, fit, and had no family history of the disease. But as I sat in the doctor's office, staring at the bleak statistics on the screen in front of me, I knew I had to fight. The next few months were a blur of hospital stays and endless rounds of medication. I lost my hair, my pride and my dignity. The worst part was the isolation. I couldn't work, I couldn't socialize, I couldn't even go out in public without some idiot asking me if I was contagious. One day, as I lay on my couch feeling sorry for myself, my wife's boyfriend came to visit. He had brought a gift with him: a copy of Hunt Down The Freeman, a first-person shooter game that I had always wanted to play but never had the chance. I was skeptical at first. How was playing a video game going to help me with cancer? But as I started to immerse myself in the game, something miraculous happened. For the first time in months, I forgot about my illness. I was no longer an AIDS-riddled bozo, I was Sergeant Mitchell Shepard, a badass fighting for revenge against an armored mute brandishing a lever. As I explored the immersive, detailed world of Hunt Down The Freeman, I felt a sense of true existential dread and agony that even AIDS had failed to impress upon me. I was watching endless nonsensical cutscenes and stumbling through half-finished corridors. It was a perfect match for the constant worry and pain that had become my daily reality. Over time, as I played more and more of the game, I started to feel a sense of hope and determination returning to me. I began to think about the future, to set goals and make plans. I started exercising again, eating better, and taking care of myself. I even started to think about returning to work. In comparison to playing Hunt Down The Freeman, everything else seemed easy. And then, after what felt like an eternity, the day finally came when my doctor declared I had two months to live. It was a moment of pure joy and relief, and I knew that I owed a lot of my decline to the hours I had spent playing Hunt Down The Freeman. Looking back, I realize that the game was more than just a distraction or a hobby for me. It really illustrated the futility and absurdity of existence, and it comforted me to know that the works of man are all but dust in the face of an uncaring universe. And now, as I stand here, I am grateful for every moment I spent playing Hunt Down The Freeman. It truly made a difference in my darkest hour.

I almost thought this was going to be a copypasta about how Half-Life: Source gave you cancer. I guess this is good too, though.

@@ButtonMasherReal I remember the day I was diagnosed with cancer like it was yesterday. It was a cold, dark winter morning and I had just gotten out of bed when my doctor called with the news. I was in shock, my heart racing as I tried to comprehend what he was telling me. The words "stage 4" and "terminal" kept ringing in my head, and I couldn't shake the feeling that my life was over. I couldn't believe it. How could this have happened to me? I had always been careful, always followed the rules. But then I remembered something - my obsession with Half-Life: Source. I had spent hours upon hours playing that game, ignoring my friends and family in favor of the virtual world it provided. And now, it seemed, that obsession had come back to haunt me. As it turned out, the game was full of bugs and glitches, and one of them had caused my cancer. The developers had known about the issue for years, but they had done nothing to fix it, and now it was too late for me. I was terrified and overwhelmed, and I didn't know how I was going to get through the next few months, let alone the rest of my life. But somehow, I found the strength to keep going. I knew I had to fight, no matter how hard it was going to be. Through the ups and downs of treatment, I tried my best to stay positive. I knew that I had brought this upon myself, and I was determined to make the most of what little time I had left. But as I lay in my hospital bed, staring at the ceiling and trying to come to terms with my fate, I couldn't help but feel angry and bitter. I was a victim of a careless, profit-driven industry that had no regard for the well-being of its players. And so, as I took my last breath, I made a promise to myself - to use my story as a cautionary tale, and to warn others about the dangers of playing games like Half-Life: Source. It was a small comfort, but it was all I had left.

Half life really does put a lime light on some of the better elements of the early 15 years of this new, yet otherwise bleak century.

I used to enjoy playing games in the PS2 era simply for the janky physics. I remember being enamored with the ragdolls of Hitman. Good times.

Also that dig at the modding community? Cringe my dude, I think Stone and the gang did a great job at bringing the visuals more in-line with half life 2.

yeah, yikes, i saw the dig at the modders and just have to ask, why? what is wrong with people having fun

it feels like he was looking for reasons to trash this port. To me it was always just Half Life 1 with ragdoll physics

It has a few bugs, mind you I do consider the current version of Half-life: source to be objjectively worse than the original because of all the game breaking bugs, but at launch it actually had a lot of minor improvements that were nice. Like the ability to select which chapter you want to play from the main menu.

same

The fact that Ross is STILL making episodes of Freeman's Mind keeps my inner child alive

Same dude i watched Gman squad without even knowing English way back when lmao

Remember to re-watch Freeman's Mind once per year, lest you mess with the Freeman.

+ImmaLittlePip Believe it or not, Freeman's Mind is still ongoing as per Freeman's Mind 2

Same! I was tricked into thinking it was an upgrade to the original and I played it first. As far as I could tell it ran normally and I fell in love with the game. I guess it's good enough by itself so, for a first timer, it wouldn't make a difference. I didn't get all the hate at first but apparently I played it right before the Pipeline update that broke the game in 2013. I was lucky, I guess.

I played in like 2008 and it was fine as far as I cared except for the atrocious ragdolls, but as covered in the video and the above comment the Steam Pipeline update completely fubar'd it and it continued to get more busted with each Source update. On the topic of HL:S Deathmatch, I also played a little bit of it around the same time and a small child who was one of the only people still playing it recruited me to "act in" a knock-off of GMan Squad he titled "The R*****ed Guys" and ordered me around for a while and sent me the KZfaq link, it was one of the most godawful nonsensical things I've ever seen, fond memory that I hadn't thought about for years.

@@bluegum6438 is the video still up today?

@@drawter3592 I have no idea, I just searched it and nothing came up if it is still up good luck finding it, sorry

Yep, I've been playing the original half life and MAN is it a blast!

that's what wayneradioTV did to film the HLVRAI series!

@@dominicbofficial i believe he also used the resized maps mod, since hl:s has a shitton of loading screens and level transitions, so it has like 500 maps per chapter instead of just, well, 1 map per chapter.

Funny thing is I don't feel nostalgic about Freeman's Mind because still waiting for next episode.

​@@ZenurfiyI am glad I am still waiting for Freeman's mind though, at least I am waiting for something instead of nothing.

After those comments like this, I like Half Life Source even more just beacause it gives the opportunity to do creative reimaginative Half Life 1, also Black Mesa is on my heart.

I'm just old enough to remember G-Man squad existing, but too young to have bothered watching it. I didn't really get into the internet as quickly as everybody else my age.

hunt down my will to live

Prospekt was relatively inoffensive, just a HL2 level pack that talked a big game about "starring" Shepard but wasn't actually doing that much with it, but all things considered not doing that much wrong. HDTF turned any issues it had up to 11.

Benry was my favorite bug. Such a silly little guy.

Uh that was garrysmod my guy

@@nuclearcosmos23 Yeah but wasn't it a direct port to Garrysmod?

@@Hebleh the gmod port fucks it up even more

Same for models, the combination of the two with the old static lighting system gives a vibe

Kind of reminds me of tuna or minced meat

Gman Squad was awesome, shame they all broke up

It's not that you didn't notice them earlier, they didn't exist earlier Updates absolutely destroyed the game

if it wasnt for it, we wouldnt have gotten der bunker

Do you have cold war and 3 swapped? One came way after the other

@@busterbackster1 Okay, maybe I didn't explained well ? I know that BO3 came first. But what I'm saying is that even though Cold War is hated, a lot of people who made BO3 zombies maps took inspiration from mechanics and other things from CW Zombies. And some of the people who hated on CW Zombies probably also played some of the BO3 Zombies maps who are based on CW Zombies' mechanics. That, or, they are shitting on these maps, just because they uses CW Zombies mechanics, even though, said maps are popular and good. While i do have problems with Cold War as a whole and a lot of other things about it, I would be really fuckin dumb if I decide to deny anything that Cold War allowed some new good maps to be created. (Don't pay attention to any uppercase "i". My auto translate on mobile causes this, and I stopped bothering to fix this shit)

​@@skaynne54oh, youre talking about custom zombies!

Ladders are just a wall that you can go to the sky.
