The easiest to use and most flexible NoVR mod for Half-Life: Alyx! This mod allows you to play Half-Life: Alyx without a VR headset, not needing specialized drivers or anything like that. It allows you to play the game in any way and anywhere you like from beginning to end! We developed the only NoVR mod that allows you to play in a very easy way, with many VR interactions preserved in some form for a flat screen.

The mod's only saving grace is that you can play HLA beginning to end, ironic how it won the Best Singleplayer category considering that it actively removes certain puzzles, mechanics and weapon upgrades. Extra depth my ***.
Overall the entire thing feels jank as hell, you WILL get stuck on small props and geometry, you WILL fall out of the map if you try exploring areas that are normally supposed to be clipped off, I could go on.
The weapons feel horrible, both mechanically and animation wise (but not all of them... that much)
- The pistol has clean animations besides the aim firing being rather bad, no wonder they added the crosshair being always on your screen.
- The shotgun is clean for the most part but has clipping issues during the reload, the firing animation is also rather weak for what is essentially a one-handed (in this case two) pistol sized shotgun AND is slowed down because???
- The SMG is just... eurgh. The posing is horrid, the reload blocks the middle of the screen and the posing for the gripping on the mag is just not good at all during it.
- The Grenade is the same as the SMG, posing is awful, the animation for throwing looks more like trying to place it on a wall, it's like Alyx suddenly became a toddler who has no idea how to handle weapons in any capacity.
- The Multi-tool is of the same issue as the other two mentioned above, posing once again is awful, the animation for interacting with hackables is just ehh.
You have too many animators for a project that only has 5-6 weapons which not only results in inconsistency style wise but also quality. You could've easily let a singular animator do everything as long as they have the time, the fix is not getting other animators that do one thing or absolutely nothing.
I am truly sorry if I ****** off anyone on the team, I just have an incredible distain to your Project Manager who seems to care way too much about his own ego that anything below 7/10 makes him go rabid only to confront, harass or even undermine the reviewer by review bombing their mods with ******** "feedback."
Not to mention throwing a hissy fit over being asked to rename the mod to avoid confusion between the other NoVR mod.
SoMNst's version truly couldn't come any sooner.
Well, this mod is awesome. It lets you play the complete game without a vr glasses. As of right now, I had no bugs and problems with playing. The only thing that could be better are the gun sounds and some animations, but that's just a little problem.
I have always loved the Half-Life Series, not because it is an action game and not because it was released in such an intricate way but because of the storyline that the Valve team has presented to fans worldwide.
I do not know the number of half-life fans and portal fans who are there today, but it is great that you have stuck with us even if the time you have spent with game are only brief.
The reason why I love this mod is because it allow us to play game with no VR equipment.
I don't have the necessary equipment to play the actual game but this is a great way for people to experience this game in way cool and amazing way.
I give a ginormous round of applause to the team that made this happen and I can't wait to see what happens next in this community.
