Seems to be just Ravenholm and Nova Prospekt for now

Half-Life 2 is $1.99 right now if you don't have a license.

Oh boy! Can't wait to see a 20 year old game run at 720p to get playable fps on a $1600+ GPU!

eh, tech demos can run like shit, i wouldn't play it until a few gpu generations have passed

edit: I caved, gonna try it today

edit2: oh yeah, 15 fps at 1080p native on my 6900XT, disabling secondary bounces helps but not by much (worth noting im on default settings, apparently there are presets too)

Finally!! Now I only need this 20yo game to become a 30yo game so I can play it with an average outdated GPU.

Minimum requirements: Ryzen 3600/i5 8600 and RTX 3060 Ti.

I really like raytracing and think it can greatly add to realism and quality but I didn't actually love this. I got 100 fps so that wasn't the issue.
