Overview of Black Mesa Definitive Edition

Black Mesa is Half-Life in a modern shell, supplemented with a number of innovations. Yes, we are talking about a remake of the cult game of 1998. The work on Black Mesa lasted 8 years, the Crowbar Collective association, consisting of 40 volunteers, was engaged in it. The team approached the matter very carefully, so the Valve corporation paid attention to the project, it became the publisher. We recall that in 2004 Valve released Half-Life: Source - a version of the original Half-Life, built, as is clear from the name, on the Source engine. However, this project did not implement all the capabilities of such a powerful graphics program. Black Mesa fills this gap - the player is waiting for completely redesigned textures and models.

At the same time, the Crowbar Collective volunteers very carefully approached the interpretation of the legendary shooter and did not change the plot or gameplay. However, it is worth noting that several features typical for Half-Life 2 were added - the ability to use binoculars, run fast. Black Mesa also has achievements.
