I'm not even finished Alyx, I started again when I got my new build done and I went from an 8/10-10/10 and I haven't even finished it yet. I played HL2VR mod immediately prior and it has completely changed the way I view the whole series.
Yeah it took me literally years to complete it and then suddenly got on a roll and finished it in one week. On completion I don't know why I didn't do it sooner. It was a fantastic journey.
It's given me a huge perspective shift on why the 7-hour war was only 7-hours.
The combine in their prime before Dr Freeman's crowbar entered the scene, is a terrifying machination.
My appreciation for Alyx Vance has also skyrocketed, badass woman, through and through.
Edit: forgot to mention A FUCKING VIDEOGAME LETS ME PUSH THE DAMN ELEVATOR BUTTON
