It would also be nice to wield the heavy weapons used by the large Combine soldiers (which normally disappear when they die).ДЄnd of course thereвЂ™s the Gravity Gun itself, a weapon/tool which was foundational to Half-Life 2.

Unfortunately Half-Life: AlyxвЂ™sВ weapon roster left much to be desired both in terms of number and diversity of weapons.ДЄ mod to bring some of Half-LifeвЂ™sВ iconic weapons-like the crossbow, revolver, RPG, and pulse rifle secondary fire-to Half-Life: Alyx would spice up the combat for your next playthrough.

The Half-Life series is home to as many iconic weapons as it is enemies to shoot them with. Bonus if I can Spartan-kick a Combine soldier out a window. Some games already support the use of Vive Trackers for tracking more parts of the playerвЂ™s body, and a mod for Half-Life: Alyx which would allow for foot tracking would be quite compelling even if it meant I could kick objects in the world for added embodiment.

IвЂ™m not the only one who became so immersed in Alyx that at one point I tried to kick something with my foot, only to remember that the game doesnвЂ™t know where my feet are! This one might seem silly but it could be a major immersion booster. Stormland (2019) showed several smart solutions to these issues (like floating weapons in front of the player for a few seconds if they drop them) which modders could use as a basis for a holster mod in Half-Life: Alyx. Though IвЂ™m quite certain Valve did this to avoid the clunk that can come from an iffy holster system, and to prevent users from dropping their weapons, weвЂ™ve seen several games that manage to do holsters and detached weapon interactions well. I find this approach wholly unimmersive compared to being able to grab my weapons with whichever hand I see fit, or even set them down. And rather than grabbing your weapons from a holster and returning them when done, you use a menu to equip and unequip your weapons into your hand. This was one of the things that struck me right away in Half-Life: Alyx instead of acting like independent objects, weapons are stuck to your selected вЂWeapon HandвЂ™. IвЂ™m splitting things up into вЂPracticalвЂ™ and вЂLess PracticalвЂ™ sections based on how complex theyвЂ™d likely be to build.

Though the modding tools arenвЂ™t available yet, hereвЂ™s list of Alyx mods that weвЂ™d love to see.
