IMO the only part of HL2 that didn't age as well was EP1, felt very fillerish to me when I was playingHalf-life 2 is more overrated. Base HL2 didn't age as well as the episodes
A lot of parts of HL2 are just boring like the boat part. The game just feels like a tech demo for the physics since it is. The only slow part after Ravenholm is Highway 17 iirc. Everything past Sandtraps is good. I didn't really like Ravenholm after subsequent playthroughs unlike others doeIMO the only part of HL2 that didn't age as well was EP1, felt very fillerish to me when I was playing
I haven't really replayed HL2, but I can see Sandtraps "floor is lava" gimmick getting really annoying on repeat playthroughs, it wasn't particularly fun the first time aroundA lot of parts of HL2 are just boring like the boat part.

That's true but it's a somewhat short section and I'm pretty sure you can rush it. You just get an achievement if you never touch sandbut I can see Sandtraps "floor is lava" gimmick getting really annoying on repeat playthroughs, it wasn't particularly fun the first time around
I usually love puzzle-platformers and am usually quite good at them, but I didn't like Braid at all. The amount of micro-manipulation that the game requires you to do is incredibly tedious and frustrating, and I couldn't solve a single one of the puzzles without a guide (even with a guide, they were quite difficult to pull off).
I've never liked any of Bethesda's RPG games, like The Elder Scrolls and Fallout series. All of them have a very unpolished feel to them, with constant glitches and bugs, and the gameplay always feels aimless and dull. I tried playing Fallout 3 and the game autosaved me a split-second before I died, so I died instantly upon starting up the game each time. That sort of slipshod programming is a Bethesda staple.
I've also never been fond of any of the generic military FPS games like the Call of Duty series. All of them are very bland and boring and all of them feel exactly the same.
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars is one of my all-time favorites, but I was not impressed by the only other GTA game that I've played, Grand Theft Auto IV. The driving (which you have to do constantly) is quite bad, and the missions are often very tedious and annoying.

If this noob wasn't smart enough to beat Braid without a guide he was never gonna be smart enough to run a whole sitebut I didn't like Braid at all.

The real puzzle of Braid was how the enjoy it which was solved for the first time by Soulja Boy many years ago:If this noob wasn't smart enough to beat Braid without a guide he was never gonna be smart enough to run a whole site
I honestly thought the game was pretty good, although I didn't have much desire to replay it after I finished it, unlike most Doom games (even Doom 3), which was kinda interesting to me. I finished it once and already feel like I've seen everything the game has to offer.doom eternal

>Braid too hard.@Grok summarise in one five lettered word
All of those things are commonly known and criticized, making them correctly rated.>Braid too hard.
>Bethesda games too buggy.
>Call of Duty too boring.
>GTA 4 bad driving and repetitive missions
More than a single word but that's the jist of what xhe said.
