    Half-Life: Alyx is an incredible demonstration of what can be done with virtual reality. Nobody, so far, has put the amount of resources and research that Valve did. This might not be the killer application VR needs, but it’s an excellent game, worthy of the main series of Half-Life.

    Я всегда считал серию Half-Life примером того, какими должны быть игры, и Half-Life: Alyx это пример того, какими должны быть шутер и хоррор в VR. Я зарегался только потому, что мне стало обидно, что к некоторым играм у критиков разная предвзятость.
    я бы поставил этой игре 9/10, потому что до идеала всё же немного не дотягивает, НО тут вышла ещё одна замечательная игра, которая    Я всегда считал серию Half-Life примером того, какими должны быть игры, и Half-Life: Alyx это пример того, какими должны быть шутер и хоррор в VR.

Это смутило меня очень сильно, поэтому ради справедливости я накину ещё один балл. Обидно, что приходится оценивать не саму игру, но и ситуацию в целом.    … Expand

    Valve realmente lo quiso decir cuando dijeron que este juego sólo se puede jugar en VR y no como un juego de FPS regular.

    It is a resurrection of legend.
    Optimization is fantastic.
    VR user essential game.
    Prepare for unforeseen consequences.
    If you are a fan of the half-life series, you will sit down and cry at the end of the scene.
    I pay tribute to Valve, who made this masterpiece even after a long ridicule.
    12 years of my half life fan life was rewarded with this.

    Juegazo, Inovacion, VR, Vuelta de nuestra saga de pc favorita, lo tiene todo, fisicas alucinantes, hasta puedes hacer malabares, lastima que este subtitulado y no doblado, un juego que no te puedes perder y por el que merece la pena el desembolso de unas gafas vr, en mi caso oculus rift s, las quest aunque se pueda no convence lo del cable mucho y no las pille, si tienes la posibilidad compralo

    The best part of the game are the graphics and the physics engine. But It is awkward to play, and boring like all virtual reality games today. This technology still has a long way to go.

    Alyx is an amazing game. It's the first VR title that actually makes real use of the platform. It is immersive, engaging, and challenging with a defined story. I'm a fan and early adopter of VR tech, but I untill Alyx I was never blown away.

    Granted it's far shorter than I'd like, and the AI could use a little work. But it's a game changer!

    An appropriate game valve for 2020. Here, new standards are set, just like at HL.
    No one has ever reached it again, except valve itself. Only criticism, it is too short.

    Fantastic visuals, combat and story. This game really shows that VR is not a gimmick but instead a tool to exasperate the gameplay and visuals to an amazing extent.

    I can not wait until we get another VR title from Valve.

    It's not half life more than 2 less than 4 but it's nevertheless an half life game and valve still got the old magic. Source 2 looks great. Hope we won't have yo wait 13 years for the next game...

    Half-Life Alyx is proof that Valve is still at its best creatively. This emblematic franchise has been brought to virtual reality; in Alyx we enjoy an immersion never seen before, with comfortable and intuitive mechanics as well as excellent visuals and atmosphere that accompany this interesting adventure within the iconic saga.

    It’s a good thing that Valve didn’t add a digit to the title: from Half-Life 3 we expect nothing short of revolution, while Alyx is “merely” an amazing game. [Issue#245, p.50]

    A special mention should be made of the game's dialog, mainly consisting of Alyx herself and Russel, a scientist who Alex remains in constant communication with throughout the game. Their relationship feels genuine, the conversations between them are enjoyable, and almost all of the intended comedic moments land perfectly, which is something most video games seem to have trouble with.
