    Interesting. My copy of Half Life from 1998 never got an upgrade for new hardware 😞

          I didn’t forget it, but it’s not strictly an update.

          If you try reading those patch notes they’ll tell you exactly what kinds of modern hardware some of these changes are targeted at:

          • Steam Deck optimizations
          • Improved controller support
          • Default gamma reduced since you’re probably not playing on a CRT anymore, and resolution no longer defaults to 640x480
          • Ultrawide FOV support for ultrawide monitors
          • Lowest quality settings removed since no one is running hardware that weak anymore
          • Software renderer fixed on hardware that doesn’t support 16-bit color
