btw, Alyx was kinda mid. Like it's not bad, but I've had a lot more fun with custom content in pavlov or VRChat.

It came around at a time that VR controls weren't quite standardized so switching guns and fire modes isn't intuitive, guns stick to your hand, you can't switch hands, and their actions are weird, grenades never go where you throw them (this is somewhat remedied by carrying around a bucket full of grenades, health, ammo, and vodka).

Also, IDK if it's just me, but HL games have a weird sense of loneliness and isolation.
