Can anyone tell me without spoilers what makes this the 9th greatest game of all time in the charts? i'm genuinely curious, i'm a huge fan of both episodes & main entries so i'm pretty sure its great all around. i'm just a bit surprised that its rests this high, surpassing every single FPS / Valve games etc on the charts. (didnt read/watch reviews bc of avoiding spoilers)
as like the biggest half life fan in the world i can tell you this is not the 9th greatest game in the world and the fact that this is so significantly higher than both half-life 1 & 2 is easily recency bias and due to a naturally smaller pool of votes thanks to its vr exclusivity. it's a great game with tons of polish and a great part of the half-life saga in its own right, but glitchwave have chosen the only mainline half-life game that doesn't actually belong in the top 10 of all time to be the highest rated. definitely still a marvel though, still one of the best of vr as a medium
To second acjd - no, not the 9th greatest game. That's all subjective anyways. But what this is, a fantastic VR game (emphasis on its time but even now) and it's absolutely worth playing. Worth spending $1k on an index no. Essentially the best VR game to this day, yes.
