The story in Half-Life 1 isn´t that great when you think about it.
As SoulMan says:
Quote: "Half Life really didn't have a story line. The premise of the game was that you were a scientist where an experiment went wrong and you had to escape black mesa. Along the way you met people who talked to you but that didn't happen very often."
I love Half-Life, and Half-Life 2. But it´s not a great storyline.
The incredible thing about HL 1 & 2, is the way the story is told.
Not by irritating cutscenes where you can´t interact with anything.
It is told by professors, and guards, that are in the disaster with you. They talk to you, and help you. It gives a way more realistic feel. And that, is the kind of storyline you can make in FPSC.
