Maybe put a spoiler tag at the beginning of your comment for those who haven't gotten a chance to play Alex yet
I sort of get it, but also "Half Life game ends with G Man time-freeze BS and a random abrupt cliffhanger that will not be resolved for years, if ever" isn't exactly an unexpected outcome for anyone who's interested in Half Life.
You may as well just watch a Youtube LP of Alyx anyway, since I imagine the majority of players do not have the equipment to play it themselves.
I'm watching absolutely zero spoilers for it. It'll still be there when I can get the gear together.
That's not entirely true. I believe there are several people who made mods to make it playable without VR.
