This game always fascinated me as a companion piece to Half-Life. It cemented some things in the HL lore that have just become accepted, while at the same time existing in Schrodinger’s canon.

I’m considering giving it another playthrough and taking notes. How many people have actually played it? How many people who weren’t gaming when it released have actually played? Is there any interest in it?

    I liked how in Blue Shift you play as the security gourd yet there’s more puzzles in it than the one you play as a scientician

      That was definitely a bold design decision, but I’m glad it paid off for Gearbox. Never before had I played a first person shooter from the perspective of an underpaid pumpkin.

        No one ever said he was underpaid, but I think you and I really know an intrinsic truth about this world eh?
