it alright,it was wayy darker than what we got, wished they didnt cut the cremator though i think it would fit the vanilla hl2 pretty well in certain chapters
the only part i like is the level design but I just hate the character models. Alyx looks ugly, I said it. The colors just do not work for me like the retail ones do.
I honestly prefer retail but the beta was fun. The combine were too brutish in the beta, I prefer the more modern/advanced but still evil regardless version
I like the darker aesthetic, but there were way too many weapons. That being said, I prefer the more diverse alien and combine creatures that were cut from the final game. Overall, there are many elements of the HL2 beta that are better in beta than they are in retail. But I think that everyone likes it, but mostly bc it's not what we got in the final game, it's more mysterious, and has that unfinished and creepy vibe, when you play these old maps, you really feel like there's going to be a gman jumpscare around the corner (looking at you, hazard01.bsp) and I think that's what makes people so interested in it.

If it was made to final release, I bet that its gonna make Majora's Mask felt like child's play.
It exists. Sort of.
