Half‑Life Blue Shift is basically the Gordon Freeman DLC where you don’t get to be Gordon Freeman. You’re Barney, doing your best while the universe is falling apart around you. It’s short, snappy and feels like a lost episode of a show you forgot you liked. The new areas are fun to poke around in, even if the whole thing ends faster than a YouTube ad. It’s classic Black Mesa chaos and honestly, that’s enough.
[7.5/10]

Nowhere near as good as the original half-life, my favorite game of all time, but it's a pretty neat expansion for it.

I dont understand the hate towards this expansion during the last 25 years. Probably because it is short it was so hated? It's not short if you play on hard with autosaves only. Great game, so far my favorite expansion for HL.
