Feel free to share any thoughts that come up, or react to other peoples comments. Let's get the conversation going!

source engine aesthetic was peak. i still love it, and nothing's been able to replicate it. some games have tried, but the source feel is just unique.
i always love stacking books in barney's interrogation room and trying to shove as many objects as i can in to kleiner's mini teleporter.
i also remember having to wait for headcrabs to finish their death animation before i could move forward in hl1,, so that's fun :P
