What is it? If you haven’t heard of Half-Life 2 yet: The shooter was released on November 16, 2004, and is one of the highest-rated games ever. While the game may be technically outdated today, Half-Life 2 is still considered a must-play for many gamers that everyone should experience at least once. In part 2, you also take on the role of Gordon Freeman and fight against the nasty Combine.
Do you have to play part 1? No, you don’t have to have played Half-Life 1 to play part 2. However, many fans recommend it to better understand the world and background of the game. Additionally, part 1 is also an excellent shooter.
What was the criticism of Half-Life 2 back then? By the way, there was a huge discussion at the time regarding the online requirement of Half-Life 2: Many complained that you had to activate your game online on Steam and could not resell it later.
Today, this fact hardly seems to bother anyone, as Steam, along with the Epic Game Launcher, is one of the largest providers of games.
By the way, you can also get the predecessor, Half-Life 1, for just 1 euro. The still very popular predecessor has received another patch years after its release to fix an ancient bug. You can read more about it on MeinMMO:
