My hope is that the main purpose of this is to gradually build up hype and interest in Half-Life again and after this we'll get the game we really want.

It does? I thought it was a nicely up-technicked version of Source, but clearly behind modern-day visuals in terms of things like lighting fidelity. Which is fine, because it's calibrated for VR and so performance is more important than graphical whiz-bang.
That shot of City 17 25 seconds in is using volumetric lighting effects well beyond anything oldschool Source is capable of. It's not absolute state of the art cutting edge, but the whole thing does look more modern in general.

More like Half-Life: Rayman amiright?

It has the hands, but it lacks kazoos.

It looks fun! But it's not enough to convince me to get a VR setup and look like 2015 Marty McFly while playing.

I don't think I'll ever get the “but I look silly!” thing. Gaming never makes you look like Adonis.

Imagine that you got your VR headset on, complete with headphones, and you're standing about in the middle of your game room, TOTALLY absorbed in the VIRTUAL REALITY EXPERIENCE.
Problem is, you don't realize just how into it you are until you knock yourself over after running face first into a wall.
...your whole family's there to witness your shame. They think you look like a complete chode. Your wife ends up serving you divorce papers. Your children disown you.
Happy birthday. :mad:

My wife punched me while she was in VR. I'm still with her. I have no sympathy whatsoever for your imagined family of dicks. And I wear the scars with pride.
Because if I didn't, my wife might punch me again. Or “Let's play Beat Saber!”, as she calls it.

Didn't know your name was Saber.

Well, it's not so much looking silly as it is looking silly while being completely unaware of your surroundings.
