A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Half Life 2 still looks and plays fantastic even nearly decades later
Half life 1 also! May be the graphics are a bit dated, but for that is the Black Mesa verdion
Yeah, the graphics are surely dated, in my opinion it still looks nice, HL has a great art-style. The gameplay is still great, smooth and fun, even if it's not like modern games with dozens of mechanics, this style of FPS isn't outdated.
I started playing Valve games with HL2, and didn't play HL1 until the Black Mesa game came out. I highly recommend. It's a fantastic game and the story made bolder choices than the new games. It really gives a sense of wonder in parts, especially on the back half of the story.
