What's also ultimately awesome is that you can record HL2 footage right with Steam, without needing to set up complicated recording software like OBS (which is a great recording software and probably more capable than the Steam UI, still I always scratch my head over the settings).
Yeah, the recording thing in Steam - is the thing that must have its place in Steam Overlay. I haven't tested it out, but i hope in future i'll do so.

Just like they did with Half-Life 1's 25th anniversary, they have created a special website for HL2's 20th:
Yeah, that's very creative. And they added to this website the Gravity-Gun (instead the Crowbar on first site), and you can grab some links and images and throw it over the page, thats very cool.

I noticed Half-Life 2: Deathmatch being delisted from the Steam store. Is it automatically granted for HL2 now, along with the episodes, or did it become temporarily unobtainable? It's even possible that it's been like that for a long time, I just didn't notice – even I didn't buy HL2DM separately, but got bundled to something – to what, I don't even remember.
DM was not deleted from the store, but simply removed, and apparently put into the complect. What about whether it was included all the time (Valve Complete Pack), then yes, it was available all this time freely by searching in the store until the 20th anniversary.

In honor of this, Valve made a set that includes HL2 and its episodes, completley free. They also added content for developers, and a mode for selecting episodes, they tinkered with the graphics, updated the gameplay a little, made updates tio the maps, they didn't even forget about Half-Life 2: Deathmatch, and adjusted it too. And also, THEY ADDED WORKSHOP SUPPORT! HOOOOOORAY!!!!!!!

Sounds made up, you need to provide evidence if you're going to make claims like that. Steam has even refreshed and renewed their family sharing functionality just two months ago, they would be unlikely to do that if they were removing it.
I just saw an article in my gaming media that said (now i think it was clickbait) that Family Sharing would be removed from Steam, now i'll probably reconsider the crap that damn users come up with in their posts.

And with all this, i can't check the rumors myself, because i have an outdated operating system that no longer supports Steam.

Sorry for misinformation.

Valve thus showed that their platform is not in stagnation, and that it is necessary to abandon something old in order to move on to something new. What do you think about this?

in My Steam Client is no longer lauches Post #349178
A few days ago I was blocked in the Steam community for 14 years, for a comment. Then with the support we all resolved, and I was unblocked, but then, after that I can no longer launch the Steam client. The computer does not display any message about the current state of the client, just the usual loading, and that's it - silence. Before all this, the client worked fine, even considering the fact that Windows 8.1 is no longer supported by Steam. If anyone knows what to do - please help

You can likely use the "I need help with something not listed here" > "Contact Steam Support" link to appeal to the support team, but if you were banned from the actual Steam Community (not an individual group) for such a long period, I wouldn't hold your breath.
I wrote to Steam Support about this. I'm waiting for a response. I sent all the necessary data so i can confirm my ownership of the account.

I guess consider what you commented and why and learn from that.
Yes. But the ban came to me completely spontaneously. I didn't have time to do anything, especialy. I haven't been active in steam in terms of games and comments for about 2 months. And therefore it can be assumed that the ban was false. And it unlikely that for a simple comment, i could be banned for 14 years.

I was blocked in the steam community for 14 years. I will be blocked on January 19, 2038.
I was blocked for a comment I wrote. For what is the question for the ages. So if anyone knows how to ask for steam support, please write the options in the comments. I won't wait until my 30th birthday.

I think Half-Life 3 wouldn't be successful or even considered good without Marc Laidlaw.
it's true that Mark Laidlaw made the Half-Life storyline something that no one else would have done. This will never happen again, and therefore Gabe, at one of his private conferences, admited that they never once got involved in the development of the third episode, but everything ended in dysmaralia, depression, and eventually they moved away from all this.

I'm honestly exited for Valve to fail and lose its reputation. This has gone on for too long.
unfortunatly, this is how it will be. It is very difficult to make a sequel so that it is as good as the first game, but with drastic changes, and at the same time not ruin everything.

There will always be toxicity among humans. Regardless of something else. But yes, the Valve are not the same as they were 20 years ago.

High-profile events, people started talking about Half-Life 3 again, they say that the Valve are preparing something worthwhile. But after looking through the news, it becomes clear that they are not going to release anything exept Deadlock. What do you think about this?
