    The World and a Journey Through It

    Get up Nathan. He was on the ground in the top floor of a three-story house in the countryside. Countryside of what country? Europe? America? Somewhere else? Screw it. He was somewhere on Earth, lying face up, his eyes wide open, and he couldn’t move. Get up man. Get up. Why? It was...

    Grey Sky

    You don't write stories for a theme. You write a story to tell a story. The theme comes later. If we wanted to read stuff like 'Of Mice and Men' or 'Grapes of Wrath' then we would be on another forum. Make it cool, make it interesting. But if you don't want to write a 'lesson story', then you...

    Episode 2 - what it does/doesn't need.

    What Episode 2 needs Definitely, definitely more Xen wildlife. Two or three would be perfect. They don't need to overdue them, and have three levels featuring them (like they did with the antlions), but they need to have them. Zombies can definitely show up, they are a core part of...

    "Relatively small"

    The Dispatcher reminds Combine Civil Protection that failure might result in 'off-world assignment'. The Combine are not horrible at teleportation, they can afford to send mere soldiers into different universes. What they can't do is teleport 'within' the same universe. Black Mesa East was...

    One Decade or Two?

    How about something like 16 years? That could qualify as 'nearly twenty'. 27 + 16 = 43 Its a little better than 47. My opinion is that Alyx was around 10 during Black Mesa. 16 + 10 = 26 ... Sounds good to me.

    Video Driver

    Hey thanks! I actually got the thing up, finally... but it says that "it cannot find any compatible software"... ???? Steam definitely says that I need new drivers, but for some reason it doesn't want to give it to me.

    Video Driver

    Has anyone else gotten that Steam update about having an outdated video driver? Well, I went to the sites they suggested, downloaded all the different stuff, and none of them did anything? I have a NVIDIA GeForce Go 6800, does anyone know how I can improve that to Steam standards?

    Episode One: help with OFFLINE PLAY

    I disabled my wifi and was able to run Episode One. Are you sure you can't play the game offline?

    - Stormwreck - A Half-Life RPG

    Dude, totally sorry lastHOPE_lambda! My bad, for some reason my update for you didn't get in that post. Shane Teriyani OOC: Yeah, that was good length. The door flies off and noise blasts through the room. Through it lies a hallway with ceramic tiles. Such a hallway is very good at giving...

    - Stormwreck - A Half-Life RPG

    Leon Highwind OOC: I don’t want to play your games for you, do something eventful or useful or you’ll remain in this state of limbo. Not that you have to be out of character or anything, just be wise to new opportunities. Behind some random stormblown, tied down and under canvas, you lay...

    An Enlightening Conversation (Short)

    I think Ravenholm was destroyed at least a few months before Gordon Freeman arrived. That was Ravenholm that they crab-nuked, right?

    - Stormwreck - A Half-Life RPG

    David Caboose OOC: Me neither, I was hoping you would try to explore around and try to find something and I could invent something more creative... but that's okay. Remember, when I give you an update, the environment isn't all displayed in front of your eyes immediately. If your character...

    - Stormwreck - A Half-Life RPG

    Shane Teriyani You sit down on the sled with Kaniy and try to start it. There is one central slot that seems to have some kind of button- Before you know what happens, at the slightest touch of your finger, the sled takes off! It accelerates so quickly that it leaves you shocked for thirty...
