Half-Life Alyx NoVR continues to impress and evolve

Half-Life Alyx NoVR is really coming together and a fresh update is out now to make the experience even better for those without a VR kit.

@gamingonlinux while I can't wait to try this game, I've been told multiple times Alyx MUST be played on VR to fully enjoy it as it was realized. I guess I'll be waiting to buy some VR headset. No idea when that will happen, though...

@tejedoraitor @gamingonlinux I haven't played the non-vr version, but I can't imagine it can compare. Using your hands to search through the environment for ammo and upgrades is something else.

Just watch the trailer for an idea of what I'm talking about (~1 min mark): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2W0N3uKXmo

Also the grabbity gloves are just a fun mechanic. Not to mention the gunplay.
