When people think of the development of Half-Life: Alyx and its beta they usually think of the era I describe in this video. Together, we shall explore the game as it could have been if it had launched in early 2019 like originally planned.

Special thanks to Thomas Connell for the icon used in this video's thumbnail and outro.
