The mod's just very well done but it's amazing how well the base game translates to VR. Talk about standing the test of time when your 2004 video game can be modded into VR pretty much seamlessly and then blow Triple and Double-A games that are specifically made for VR out of the water
EDIT: Thinking about it, Half Life 2 and it's consequences have been insanely culturally influential in the greater sphere. I mean from Gmod Youtube-Poops over to SFM all the assets are still relevant now due to skibidi toilet, and they're nearing 20 years old now.
The only object I understood in that sentence was GMod what was everything else
Youtube-Poops were a once common internet funny video genre, often accompanied by stop motion visuals via Gmod, that hinged on cutting together sounds to make characters say words (there's more to it but that's the gist)
Assets are the stuff you see in a game. Like the citadel or the g-man or whatever
SFM is source film maker, a tool where you can use all kinds of assets (but it basically comes with the Valve stuff) to animate all sorts of stuff.
Skibidi Toilet is I the Gen Alpha thing, where SFM and HL2 assets are used to tell some kind of story about some dystopian future where the skibidi toilets rule, or something? It's a whole thing. Think like Slenderman, or Ben drowned if you're that old, just as videos.
Skibidi itself is a song by russian band little big that gets remixed for these videos, allthough I could not tell you for the life of me how all of it found its way together. There's also the camera men on the good side (I believe) that do seem to take inspiration from siren head
The skibidi toilets are doing a proletarian revolution against the media and surveillance apparatus of the capitalist state
I call all the good-guys media people bc there's cameras, speakers, and TVs. I like that it's more a surreal action-adventure than the older horror stuff. Like SCP has grown in to a saturday morning superhero cartoon.
I want to get a plunger-guy poster before the fad wears off.
