Half-L.A.I.F. 2 - Chapter 7 - Highway 17
5Half-Life 2 - Looking around is forbidden
My attempt at playing through the entire HL2 series without ever looking around using the mouse or whatever input methods you could think of.
This is a segmented run, not aiming for speed, but merely to get through. Each video starts where the last one left off. If you see any weird cuts, it's because of Source's save stutter. Similarly, some graphical errors occur due to reloading saves.

As expected, this chapter was not too much of a challenge to beat.
We can stay in the car for almost the entire chapter, as there are many areas we don't need to leave the car for but can just get past them.
Save deletion right at the start was needed to get past the entrance door, as we were facing the way we just came from.
The first grenade jump was done to avoid the gunship encounter with RPG launcher tutorial.
It would basically be impossible for us to get a gunship without looking around, so instead we skip it.
Save deletion was done afterwards to get the car back, as it makes the following parts easier and faster.
Instead of going under the bridge to disable the force fields, we skip both of them using grenade jumps.
This is faster and also a safer alternative to the gunship combat we would need to face otherwise.
