Half-Life: Alyx Fast Review by Frank
#Halflife #HalflifeAlyx #QuickAndDirty #UGS
A virtual reality first-person shooter which takes place before the events of Half-Life 2. This game had me tricked and immersed throughout. The devs take great advantage of the VR medium in creating unique hand driven puzzles and mechanics (like the Gravity Gloves - which I like to call the "Grabbity" Gloves). Also, playing through this made me so excited for future experiences which could spawn from this game's success. More Half-Life games are an obvious extension but also imagine Counter-Strike, Natural Selection, Team Fortress, and other/new IP’s...The future looks exciting!

4.75/5
Pros
-Immersive, visuals, use of hands, world building, and INTENSE events!
Cons
-Limiting inventory, very linear, and some may hate the hand-based puzzles.
