[QUOTE=TheSpy;20970782]then STOP SAYING METROID AS A EXAMPLE. IS THAT YOUR ONLY GAME YOU GOT ON YOUR SHELF???????????[highlight]?????[/highlight][/QUOTE]
Metroid is not a good game because of story or anything like that. That is not why I'm using it as an example. I would go in depth as to why I like Metroid Prime but I haven't thought about that game as much as I have thought about other games at the moment. It's good stuff though, you should play them. 1 & 2 only, 3 was shit.

There's some sort of immersion reason for no voicing.

I never said Freeman ruins the game. What ruins is the game is the game being boring and stupid.

No. You're possibly the ugliest ballerina I've ever seen. Toasters can't be ballerinas. They don't have the finesse or leg strength.
Seriously though you're embarrassing yourself just get out.

It's a good game, to me, to a lot of people, it's a fun game to play, the story telling in my opinion is fantastic, and the way it makes us care about characters is also amazing, in my opinion. You can't always explain why you derive fun out of something, you just...do, sometimes.

One of the major thing about making Half-Life successful was the fact that once the game got going, you never knew what you were going to find around the next corner. A headcrab in every vent is not scary. A random headcrab in 1/3 of all vents is scary.

It's...fun? The gameplay may be generic, but I enjoy it, you obviously don't, but I do.

So you have a weak ass-blob show up to your face some of the time that dies in one or two hits and the game becomes greatness. This isn't how it works.

okay fine I'll say a second reason then
Another reason people find Half-Life's gameplay fun is the physics puzzles. Do you know how revolutionary it was the first time someone put cinderblocks on a makeshift teeter totter? Or shoved a washing machine down a hole complete with loud crashy noises to raise up a ramp? Or jumped an airboat or charger over a gorge so they could escape a pursuing chopper?
People like variety. And Half-Life has variety.

I'm sure back in the day people were so impressed by realistic physics in video games that they forgot the game was bad. I can understand that. But think about it. You are grabbing cinder blocks, putting them on a platform, and then advancing. Where's the game in that? That's work. That is the definition of work. Most of these physics type puzzles were the lower points of the game for this reason.

I'm no troll. Well, I am a troll but I don't troll about Half Life. I firmly believe the game is dumb. I and honestly don't understand why people like it. I argue because I want answers.

people want to much from a game. it isnt just a click and drag. it takes almost 4 years for a game to come out perfectly. and you just dont give a shit for those hard workers

You've gotten answers, that you abruptly disagree with. It's obvious we can't change your mind since you don't believe in opinions, so please shut up and leave.
