Bonus: it also seems that the episodes have been rolled into the base game. Full details of the anniversary update.

Cool, but I already bought it like 20 years ago and still have it on steam

[-] goldteeth@lemmy.dbzer0.com 53 points 10 hours ago

...Think it's too late to get a refund?

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 14 points 9 hours ago

They didn't even do refunds back then

[-] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 10 points 8 hours ago

So you're saying there's a chance...

[-] ms_lane@lemmy.world 4 points 8 hours ago

I don't think they can refund ATi Half Life 2 tokens.

[-] Flamekebab@piefed.social 39 points 9 hours ago

Ye gods, 18 years, 4 months for mine. You'd hope that they'd just automatically stop asking if I'm old enough to view store pages, right?

[-] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 30 points 9 hours ago

My account is so old I have (or had, before they normalized the format) a four digit steam ID. I "owned" Half Life 2 for like four months before it released thanks to getting a code free in the box with my Radeon 9800 Pro back in the day. For a short and glorious flash of time in the summer of 2004, I was guaranteed a copy of the most hotly anticipated game ever, even though nobody could play it yet, and also owned an example of the fastest video card on the planet. Damned if I didn't mow a fuckton of lawns and reinstall Windows and Outlook an a horde of septuagenarians' computers to afford that card.

And no, they do not stop asking about your age.

My account turned 21 a couple months ago. They really should just go "yeah, it's fine" and don't ask

[-] FilthyHands@sh.itjust.works 16 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

My steam account just turned 20. Fugggggg

I remember downloading it bundled with CS 1.6 - with the download being behind a queing system, so the servers weren't overloaded.

was in the queue for a day and the download took over night

[-] naticus@lemmy.world 8 points 10 hours ago

Oh hell, mine too back in August. Guess I'll have to take it out drinking next year.

[-] TSG_Asmodeus@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

Oh wow, I just checked and mine turned 21 today! 🎊

Jesus Christ my steam account is old enough to drink in the US.

[-] FilthyHands@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

we old lol.

I probably have 500+ hours in Counter Strike Source and about the same in Day of Defeat Source, (edit def add cs1.6 and original dod to those numbers) from 2003-2005. All before steam kept track of play time. So many games (including HL2!) show "no recorded activity". It really irks me but it's also kind of funny. Took a near total break from gaming until about 2015. Didn't get a decent PC until 2020. I Was surprised I even remembered my steam login.

[-] essteeyou@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

Mine turns 20 in 2 days. Yikes.

[-] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 12 points 9 hours ago

Originally played on orange box on the 360, I’m surprised I didn’t already have it on steam. Glad I stumbled on this post

[-] Sludgehammer@lemmy.world 13 points 9 hours ago

Holy crap, someone who actually didn't have it yet!

[-] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 7 points 8 hours ago

I mean I do, just not on steam

[-] Sludgehammer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Close enough I suppose.

[-] PlzGivHugs@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 hours ago

Well, they implemented some graphical improvements and options, as well as workshop mod support so now would be a good time for a replay.
