If you mean good = game works as intended and bad = buggy mess, then it can be objective sure. But gameplay, design, story, structure are all subjective. In those ways HL2 is a bad game to me, that doesn’t mean it is for everyone, and no one should be offended by that.

Projection, false equivalencies, strawmen, and plain old lying.

I think it’s because it ended EV rebates or something? I try not to follow too closely.

There’s way too much gatekeeping in gaming. People don’t seem to understand that everyone has different tastes, and it’s all subjective. There is no objectively good game. For me it’s Half Life 2, I don’t like shooters, tried it but couldn’t get into it. But to many it’s one of the greatest games ever.

I’ll be joining soon enough, going to dual boot with Linux. Only keeping windows for games that won’t work on Linux.

The Russia that can’t take Ukraine? Keep dreaming.

It’s not anti-Semitic to simply state reality.
