This is not a type of video I usually do. But I feel like just showcasing the mod should be enough to tell you how I feel about it. As a form of boycott, I refuse to properly review it. Stream: ua-cam.com/users/live58WF2TbIdWc?feature=share ua-cam.com/users/live58WF2TbIdWc?feature=share
I may sound weird for saying this, but I genuinely enjoy Half Life 2 Overcharged, it's just so goofy and there are so many new weapons, enemies, and even map edits. It changes the Half Life 2 game that its (somewhat) refreshing to play and different while still being the same maps at its core. I enjoy just screwing around with cheats to get me certain weapon loadouts like the Adrian Shepard loadout or the Half Life 1 loadout. Just don't play it on hard, it you want it to be a challenge by the way, choose the realism setting, it makes so you can only have 8 weapons which means you have to think about what you need and makes the drop weapon function useful. Also, I love the Charger enemy because it's just an Ailen dinosaur.
I assume you must have loved it since it looks quite fun. Saying you're not reviewing it "As a form of boycott" sounds way too dramatic for a video game mod.
This is how Valve originally wanted HL2 to be like but the common pc would not have been able to play this in 2004 so we got the HL2 we know and HATE today instead of this masterpiece

I like how she screams "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" and the Metrocops didn't even get to hit her husband with their stunsticks, which implies that you kicked her husband to death then did the same to the brave peace officers who tried to save him.

@@richardchicken923 I liked this mod actually, I like the new weapons and enemies and some other weird shit but the problem with the mod is just it was buggy and unbalanced and some weapon were just redundant for example half life 2 retail SMG and beta smg is just unnecessary. And inconsistent or out of place models such as some weapons does not fit half life 2 or half life 1 enemy ported straight from original without some modification to fit half life 2 atmosphere and style
@@dauzlee2827 Meanwhile the devs have now uploaded scripts that made a youtuber unable to play it for criticizing the mod. Check noclicks latest video. Time for the mod to get buried for injecting actual malicious codes lmfao.
I like how even though you're not talking, it still feels like you're the one playing the mod and the editing is as if you were narrating it silently. Incredible as always! I would also like to add that I do not enjoy the taste of lemonade.
overall overcharged is chaotic as hell and i freaking love it, is a good mod where you need to trun off your brain and just mess around with it if you are really bored. Also a quick way to have it run instead of just scrolling through soo many addons from gmod workshop.
Reminds me very highly of Smod, and it's made for the same exact people that's made for. I get why it's not for everyone but there is a silly childish fun to be had with mods like this.
I'm not gonna lie, I know this mod is bad. I know it's janky, and I've made plenty of fun of it myself... But now that I'm watching this video, it's almost changed my mind. It's like a completely over the top, caricature of "HOW GORDNON FREDMAN SAVED THE WORL"
Gordon is tired of theoretical physics now he is applying REAL physics with his mighty foot Also there is a perfect way to describe overcharged: SMODn't
@@havoc3-243 there's kinda so much content that valve have, or other team like cremator's model from RTBR (If i'm not wrong tho), so much HL1 models that is not fitting in this mod, and rest of this mod is like gmod collection nothing more impressive, just a weird boring mod
A few things i really wanna see added /re-added in new versions overcharged is the enemy randomizer, weapon randomizer and a preset option for a more streamlined weapon per slot limit/ easy swap. I actually enjoyed the earlier release despite jank and some issues
It looks like something i would do when i was 16 years old. It has no sense, no cohesen, everything in clash with each other, it 100% would be better without some of that stuff. But boy i really want to have kalashninkov in game and you cant stop me :V
I still think they need to change the maps like expand them to account the new enemies, like imagine Route Kanal but less claustaphbic and Xen infested or something with more creatures added.
Perhaps it's beyond me why people would be so overreacting to a mod that is completely free and doesn't carry some huge thought behind it (like Prospekt, which is also a pay mod and deserves criticism that it get). However, I also can't understand what is the problem with playtesting mod before releasing something like this.
Playtesting isn’t required to make a mod that simply adds weapons. It is required for a mod that adds and plays around with the enemies and their spawns. Edit: It’s also required to check if any major bugs are in the game, such as crashes.
Seeing the part where the combine soldier kick you on one shot made me loose my ship. Also why are there so much aliens, what did a second residence cascade happened??
this mod still has some sort of potential if they stop fucking their brains up, id say the best parts of this mod are the new zombie variants, the cremator, the combine guard, and the charger thing from the hl2 beta, they all fit in quite well and I like them ( besides their textures )
First, 100 kicks out of 10. We are talking Kung-Fu movies levels of kicks. Second, not bad. Junky and silly - yes, bad - no. And much better than the original version. Nice to the the authors still improving on their work despite the amount of negative feedback they've got.
I gotta be honest, lots of questionable decisions in this mod but the kick isn't a bad addition (I kinda like how stupid overpowered it is). That, and imo introducing the zombine during HL2 actually makes sense even if it does deflate Alyx seeing it for the first time later.

this video essay successfully adheres to the valve game design philosophy
(the protagonist should be silent)
Unless you're Alyx, though for her, it made total sense.
@@pizzacade8594 yeah,i'd say that alyx is a "side protag" just like atlas and p-body in portal 2's coop mode,those are allowed to speak i'm p sure
My favorite part of Overcharged 2.0 was when John Freeman showed up, said "It's time to get Overcharged", truly a masterpiece of HL2 modding.
And overcharged all over the place

The fire extinguisher is probably the best weapon in history of hl2 modding
Not even a modded weapon, as the HL2 Beta featured it already. In fact, I am pretty sure they just got it from there.
@@gimok2k5 Oh yeah. I forgot they had planned for the fire extinguisher to be used in the borealis chapter.

Half-Life 2: Overcharged Kick
i think half life 2 overcharged needs more overcharging
Truly a mod we needed since 2004 (Coughing)
And also i loved the part in Ravenholm where you just didn't lose any health
gordon's gonna tear his groin kicking that high
Honestly it looks so ridiculously jank that it might be fun bad, I love the part in the video with the kicking
I think the protagonist is Gordon Feetman instead of Gordon Freeman, because his kick is stronger than any other weapon.
I'm not gonna lie, I know this mod is bad. I know it's janky, and I've made plenty of fun of it myself... But now that I'm watching this video, it's almost changed my mind. It's like a completely over the top, caricature of "HOW GORDNON FREDMAN SAVED THE WORL"
In the words of a YTer:
"Half-Life 3!"
Gordon Freeman Live Reaction:
Gordon is tired of theoretical physics
now he is applying REAL physics with his mighty foot
Also there is a perfect way to describe overcharged:
SMODn't
"The right kick in the wrong place can make all the differenccce in the world"
Rad was overcharging some kicks
7:01 that bug exits in original half life 2, in fact you can do the same thing with the gray wide material you just walked on.
I like the part where he kicks the enemy...that's very rare
*[KICKING INTENSIFIES]*
Hmm, very overKICKED 2.0 moment
That menu cover of Triage at Dawn was magnificent
Now it just needs Gordon doing witty yet offensive and vulgar one-liners for full effect 😎😈
This is truly one of the mod of all time.
Overcharge? More like PeakCharge, amirite?
Just as good as arctic adventures (which was apparently made by the same people as this)
I played the mod myself, I got up to Highway 17 then the game just keeps crashing during the gunship explosions
Interesting how they gonna put this mod in steam with content that valve might not like it
yeah uh isn't that MP5 model from a CS:GO leak (or the game's public beta)?
@@havoc3-243 there's kinda so much content that valve have, or other team
like cremator's model from RTBR (If i'm not wrong tho), so much HL1 models that is not fitting in this mod, and rest of this mod is like gmod collection nothing more impressive, just a weird boring mod
Overcharged will be rebuiled from scratch for Steam release. It might take 2-3 years since there only one coder for now
this was gabes real vision for half life 2.
Gordon never skips leg day
Kick life 2, overkicked

3:46 Running out of bullets when having some (any) would be badass; absolute RadHaz moment lmao
ok but did you try playing any Leon maps with this like some sort of twice-unholy act of summoning Satan AND Cthulhu in the same room?
The mod author really must love kicking.
I bet this mod is now broken with the recent HL2 20th anniversary update.
Finally SMOD 2. I dig it.
Half life but Gordon Freeman's role was cast by Chuck Norris
the foot is mightier than the lever action rifle shooting magnum rounds

It has no sense, no cohesen, everything in clash with each other, it 100% would be better without some of that stuff. But boy i really want to have kalashninkov in game and you cant stop me :V
I will say I like the heavily MMOD inspired crosshairs if I have to give a positive, and like almost all games that include it, the kicks fun.
I still think they need to change the maps like expand them to account the new enemies, like imagine Route Kanal but less claustaphbic and Xen infested or something with more creatures added.
I got kicked in the bаlls
Truly the mod ever
This mod overcharged my bank account, believe it or not
This will be dark messiah of might and magic in 2024
Like the modmaker, I also often ask myself:
"Why can't every game be like FEAR but shit?"
