I really enjoyed Half Life when it first came out and it's following new version.
I am aware that it also came out on Xbox, but after having multiple surgeries on my right hand leaving a lot of it fused solid, plus also fracturing my left, I find it very painful to hold and operate a console controller when compared to far less pain from a keyboard and mouse - so I was happy it was available on PC.
But then Half Life was dropped from PCs and I I have awaited it's return.
As the years passed, I became more disillusioned and less interested in the game.
Then I heard it was coming out on PC again - WooHoo - started looking forward to it's release.
BUT, then I heard it was going to be VR only
Well that was like the feeling you get when you come home to find your house has been stolen.
I was totally gobsmacked!!
So now it is only for rich people - especially when a decent VR setup here costs at least $2000 (eg - 2020 Valve Index Full VR Kit w/ Half Life Alyx is priced at about $3000 here) and that does not include the PC which would need to cost at least another $2000 to have a hope of giving a good experience.
So who has a spare $4500 to $5000 lying around just to be abe to play a game??
Absolutely STUPID to bring it out for VR only both preventing soo many from playing it and reducing it's profit by a very significant amount.
Even if I did have an Xbox to play earlier versions of Half Life, it is useless with this game because there is no dedicated Xbox VR headset - again proving how moronic their decision making is limiting it only to rich people.
It astounds me why didn't they do as Resident Evil did and cover all the bases and bring out a non VR version???
