Thanks to this video I found the inspiration behind one of my favorite games on Roblox ever which was the Hidden. The stalker also uses the same voice lines as the monster in the hidden.

    The Ship is an excellent game. There are still a few active players but the master server is dead, so you have to look up a server online and add its IP manually. There are three servers that I know of. You can also play against bots, which can be really janky, but are sometimes terrifyingly human.
    One thing not mentioned are the secrets. There are 10 ships, all with a variety of secrets, ranging from paintings that slide aside to reveal a weapon, to full blown hidden rooms behind rotating bookcases. Finding all of them is a game in itself.

    There was also Dystopia, and Neotokyo, the latter which got Valve's attention at one point. These 2 don't have bot support, which is sad because Neotokyo especially has some really cool assets for a Source engine game, taking place in cyberpunk Japan.

    A fairly obscure, but very fun mod, was SourceForts, This mod had 2 teams construct their base's fortress during a timed build mode out of variously sized panels that could be frozen in place, after which was attack mode where you had to infiltrate the enemy base, steal, and capture their flag. It was effectively a Half-life 2 deathmatch mod with the weapons and skins straight from HL2, along with various classes. It was a chaotic game, most of the time both teams constructed a wall at the boundary line between the two bases and once attack mode started each team would bombard each other with grenades over the wall. There were also elaborate kill-mazes made that forced the enemy team through a long and winding tunnel to get to the flag.
    Crazy fun.

At least there are games like it today such as Angels Fall First, Star Citizen, Space Engineers, and the EA Battlefronts that can scratch the itch, but they don't quite have the Quak-ey energy Eternal Silence showed off in what gameplay footage still remains here.

    Loved your video! I was also into playing mods back in the day, but my “13 year old playing 12 hours a day” prime was more like 2006-2008 with xfire instead of Skype
    I was a beta tester for The Ship back in the day. It was supposed to be a more full fledged game based on their HL1 mod of the same name, which I had played a lot. The mechanic to maintain your needs is there because it forces you to wander around the ship rather than hiding in a corner somewhere forever, and of course adds to the atmosphere. The funniest bug was everyone’s hair, facial hair, and hats would randomly freeze in place and you would see them floating around all over the map while all the players became bald
    My favorite dead popular mod is Zombie Master. Valve took its idea and made Left 4 Dead which sucked the wind out of their sails big time.
    My favorite dead mod nobody played was Plan of Attack, which I don’t think you can even run today. It was trying to be a more strategic counter-strike
    Shoutout to Eternal Silence as well which was a spaceship dogfighting mod that was a lot of fun.
    Obsidian Conflict was way better than Synergy back in the day, and was the first mod you could really play a co op mode that didn’t crash all the time (not counting Garry’s mod)

The only issues I have with the game is how precise you have to be in melee combat to not get hit, and how some maps like to flood you with infinite/too many sprinters/kids. Sometimes you hit a zombie and it takes a good second to register, and in that time you’re infected.

    0:24 just a small clarification; the license fee is _not_ for Source games per se, but instead for the havok physics engine, which source 1 uses. This was probably the main reason Source 2 uses a physics engine developed entirely by Valve. Not that it really matters that much these days, since Microsoft acquired the company in 2015, and later made a deal with Valve in 2021 that removed the licensing fee for source games, meaning these days you can sell a game using the source engine without any license fees.

    Hey, I'm Resi and I made a map for Double Action Boogaloo and Tactical Intervention (to make a point, haha. I recreated Office and made a thread on the Tactical Intervention forums and explained that the maps that Gooseman had made for the project were extremely inadequate and poorly designed. Because I wanted to point that the map design was not the complex problem that was creating lag in the game, but guess what? I think it was the really bad physics calculations ruining the game's performance. That or extremely detailed models.)
    As for DA:B, I was commissioned to make a map for a private server and there is a funny story behind that, if anyone is interested.

    I honestly loved playing Tactical Intervention. I played it every day with my classmates and we had a ton of fun and then it was suddenly just... dead.

    as having played all of these i can say that boogaloo was basically a spiritual successor to the half life mod called "The specialist" which carried a lot of the same mechanics and play style actually attributing a lot of its mechanics from john woo films rather than the matrix. that being said as well games from my childhood are more ancient than this, not the oldest but still. having been around playing these when they came out new and following them on moddb and someone referring them to as "The good ol days" really makes me think it's time for a colonoscopy since i'm getting that old.
