Are there any threads on Half-Life games or the Half-Life series as a whole? Searching the forums I've only been able to find a Let's Play thread for Half-Life: Alyx, but I wasn't sure if I'm just not searching right or what. Thanks in advance!

Anything pre-Alyx is fodder for the Early FPS Megathread over in Retro Games.

The fact that a 1998 FPS is now considered "Retro games" and in consideration alongside Doom and such in the Early FPS thread is incredibly depressing to me.

E: TO make this post not totally worthless, the Starfield Thread is not in the index in the OP. Not that there's a lot of conversation actually about Starfield at the moment.

Much weirder to me that the 2004 & 2007 entries for HL are considered early fps.

Sure, I get that, but it's also more than a decade after doom came out. It's now an old game, but I wouldn't call it early FPS.

It's three years after loving HALO. If anything should be a cutoff for early FPS it's Halo.

I'm gonna do the thing where I ask "Why isn't there a thread for <X>?", where X="Shadows of Doubt".

I just started playing yesterday, so I am nowhere near knowledgeable enough to actually start a thread for it. Isn't there a mystery game thread somewhere?

There's a general randomizer thread in Retro that didn't see much use (https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3890106). Also several randomizer threads for specific games.
