Samenvatting

Black Mesa is een heruitgave van Valve Software's klassieke science fiction first person shooter, Half-Life. Aangedreven door Source Engine, zul je opnieuw de inaugurele rol van Gordon Freeman en zijn gedenkwaardige reis door de Black Mesa Research Facility. Verwacht gedetailleerde omgevingen om te verkennen, een enorme cast aan personages en experimenteel wapentuig. Volledig nieuwe muziek, stemacteerwerk, choreografie en toegevoegde dialogen zorgen voor een meer uitgebreide en meeslepende ervaring dan ooit tevoren.

Verhaallijn

De verhaallijn van Black Mesa is bijna identiek aan die van Half-Life en is speelbaar via het hoofdstuk "Lambda Core". Net als in het originele spel, bestuurt de speler Gordon Freeman, een wetenschapper die werkt in de Black Mesa Research Facility. Hij heeft de opdracht een monster van een vreemd materiaal in een elektromagnetisch instrument te plaatsen, waarbij hij het Hazardous Environment Suit Mark IV gebruikt om dit veilig te doen. Het materiaal van het monster veroorzaakt echter een "resonantiecascade", waardoor de faciliteit wordt verwoest en er een interdimensionale scheur ontstaat naar een buitenaardse dimensie genaamd Xen, die buitenaardse wezens naar de aarde brengt.

Freeman overleeft, vindt andere overlevenden, en gaat naar de oppervlakte met de bescherming van zijn gevarenpak om hulp te halen. Wanneer hij de oppervlakte bereikt, ontdekt hij echter dat de faciliteit door gewapende troepen wordt gezuiverd van alle levende wezens - mensen of buitenaardse wezens. Van andere wetenschappers krijgt Freeman te horen dat de enige manier om de buitenaardse invasie te stoppen is om naar Xen over te steken en de entiteit die de poort openhoudt te vernietigen.

This remake is a masterpiece! Man, I was a teen when I played half-life, It was a new, life-changing experience! Been trying to come back toThis remake is a masterpiece! Man, I was a teen when I played half-life, It was a new, life-changing experience! Been trying to come back to it a couple of times, but it's impossible for me. Not only for the graphics, but I'm also used to modern standards -even thou revolutionary for 1998- half-life is an unpolished, plane, dated, and boring shooter with almost no gameplay narrative to connect the masterpiece plot. I needed Black Mesa to satisfy this nostalgia.The 1st time I tried the MOD was in 2013 I believe, it was a blast! I remember writing an email to the guys at crowbar collective to thank them for the hard work, I really appreciated their effort. Then I bought the game when it was released on the Steam platform as a stand-alone game around 2017. Man, that was an awesome experience! What a great way to relieve the story that started my deep connection and passion for the games and their lore.But after completing the Lambda Core chapter, when I jumped into the portal instead of taking me into the alien world, I was told that the game was not completed yet. I would have to wait for the final chapter to be released! They did not have the XEN chapters ready yet. OMG, I didn't like that at all, I was frustrated, felt history repeating itself, felt the same way I felt when it was becoming evident that Episode III was never going to be released. A few years went by, and then I saw the Black Mesa definitive edition including the XEN chapters, it was beautiful. You could see the passion, the love, and the hard work these guys put their back into it. I felt the lure, calling me back to complete the story, become the freeman once again and kick the nihilant ass.It was beautiful, I enjoyed it. Man what a Masterpiece. Wish we could see Half-life III someday.

Fantastic. Tried playing the first few hours of Half Life and it definitely showed its age, fun, but definitely not a modern experience. BlackFantastic. Tried playing the first few hours of Half Life and it definitely showed its age, fun, but definitely not a modern experience. Black Mesa brought a modern touch to that Half Life experience while still keeping the genuine experience of the original game. The only game, whereupon reading reviews, was I encouraged by fans of the original release to play Black Mesa instead, because it is so faithful and well done. I was honestly blown away, and would encourage others to enter the world of Half Life from this vector. It makes a game from 1998 play like a game from 2008, and that is selling it far short of the actual experience.

Remake aspect of the game feels and looks phenomenal and perfectly fills in the gameplay and visual gaps I had with the original without ruining the immersion.Best part about this remake is the complete overhaul of XEN. Making it more lengthy, interesting and most importantly stunning to look at.The music kicks in at perfect times and enhances the experience immensely. As a remake, this game is 10/10 for me. But as a standalone game, it still falls short as its predecessor. Mundane story, repetitive enemies and poor engine mechanics keep the game from a perfect 10. But based on the remake, it's a 10 for me.

Black Mesa will probably go down in history as one of the most ambitious, successful, eye-catching and exciting fan-made projects. Its value as a remake is very high: it elevates in every respect the original Half-Life by Valve and even adds a lot of content. It is definitely the best way to enjoy this story.
