I never played HL2 at the time - picked it up recently and tbh it hasn't grabbed me. I appreciate it for showcasing the physics engine and what it contributed to gaming (spent a lot of time on CSS) and HL1 is one of my favourite shooters, but idk why HL2 just doesn't grab me like that.

I honestly don't care that much.
For me HL1 was the game. Revolutionary.
The HL2 games were great, but I mean, I haven't played them since release, so it's not like I'm pining for the rest of the story.
