Being one of, if not the best, made-for-VR games released, the potential for mods is nearly limitless. While many were hoping the next official game would be the infamous Half-Life 3, what we got instead was the virtual reality (VR) exclusive Half-Life: Alyx.
Half-Life 2 introduced the Source engine and even more amazing mods, so it would only stand to reason that the next title would also open the doors for a new slew of mods. Without this game, which on its own has influenced the FPS genre in many ways, we wouldn’t have games like Counter Strike or Team Fortress that start off as fan mods. It’s strange to think now, but so many amazing and popular games were created out of mods for the original Half-Life.
