Subject: RE: Shogo MAD review: 2017

I replayed Shogo several years back and the only explanation I could think of as to why I liked it before was teenage angst. I'm also convinced that Blood2 would have been a lot less terrible if it didn't have any cutscenes. Though "a lot less terrible" means it would still be pretty bad. I never did understand all the praise HL got. The only thing that had impressed me, at least initially were NPC head and mouth movements, but that could only add negligible value. Okok.... and coke machines. Still, I'd definitely pick Unreal over HL for shooters from around that period.
