Best Half-Life chapter?

for half life 1 i really like surface tension!! lets u use basically ur whole arsenal with pretty balanced fights (i'd say forget about freeman gets a bit over the top with the alien spam)

for half life 2 it's a hard pick between ravenholm, highway 17 and nova prospekt, but i think i like ravenholm's execution the most

for half life alyx arms race is definitely my favourite for all the combine fights but captivity is also really good!!

gameplay wise, surface tension is by far my favourite, but i find that im a really big fan of questionable ethics aesthetically

gotta be This Vortal Coil or We Don't Go to Ravenholm

Ravenholm is the perfect video game level, but This Vortal Coil has the moment when the music kicks in while you're defending the Vortigaunt camp and it is sooo good, and it has the best G-Man speech in any of the games

honestly, it's a tie between those two
