The Half-Life 2 Beta had so many creatures that were cut or changed during development - but we were able to see them in the Half-Life 2 Leak. One of these was the Stalker.

How were the beta Stalkers more terrifying than the retail version? Why did Valve change them?, and did the beta have more creative enemies? In this video, I explore the history, lore and development of the Stalkers from the Half-Life 2 Beta.
