Still, this is an amazing overhaul for Half-Life 2 and if you haven’t tried it yet, we’d urge you to. Cinematic 11 Mod is a graphical / music total overhaul, as it looks and sounds very different compared to vanilla HL2 and you can view some comparison shots and videos from this latest version bellow."
Half-Life 2 art director and Dishonored designer Viktor Antonov has died aged just 52.
One of my biggest art heroes. His work and vision were truly one of a kind, and he’s been a huge inspiration to my own work. Such a heartbreaking loss.
Remember seeing Dishonored for the first time when it released, fell in love with the art style straight away, so striking! And because of it, still holds up and will for years to come, RIP Viktor
Yep I remember seeing some of the earliest concept art for Dishonored and hearing that the art director of Half-Life 2 was working on it and being excited.
And you are absolutely right, each of those games (HL2 and Dishonored) has a distinct art style that stands the test of time.
So sad to hear this. I absolutely love the Dishonored series and love the world and art style. It looks great and unique. I'm still hoping for a Dishonored 3
After celebrating the 20th anniversary, Half-Life 2 reached top 5 on the Steam Deck Top Played list. It's also on a 90% sale.
TNS: "The valid reasons that Valve have given for shunning Half-Life 2: Episode Three are sounding increasingly less compelling."
How many times have we played this game? They know any time they release it will the perfect time. But it's unlikely to be now. That's too simple. And they don't need that push right now.
They can't do it. According to some articles, a janitor went 'Good Will Hunting' to save the entire company from collapsing because of this game.
And this is y pc gaming dominates.
What? No more taiwanese transvestite prostitute Alyx?
About time!
I love how great these always look, but I dislike it when they change the art style at times. Still, I'll download and give it a shot.
