You can take a look at Barney's Mind and Shepard's Mind series if you'd like to see how it would look without motion blur. I personally like the effect, as it makes everything less choppy/videogame-y and I can get more immersed. But I guess I just have objectively terrible taste.

While Ross has said he would like to work on projects other than Freeman's Mind, he's also said that he will continue the series as long as people are still interested in it.

"Follow the thoughts of Dr. Gordon Freeman, a 27 year old physicist and neurotic individual. In this episode, Freeman experiences his final moments on Earth." Final moments on earth? What about Freeman coming back to fight the Combine in Half-Life 2?!

Aww, that's a bit disappointing. It would have been nice if he were just baaarely audible as a little easter egg for Shepard's Mind fans, but whatever. Can't wait for Xen! Edit: Just watched it with annotations on. I really appreciate the "Backrubs!" you threw in as a reference to that. Was that really KrimsinYT's voice?

I've found out you can trigger the holster animation in most weapons by switching to a gun that has no ammo. It doesn't work for the shotgun and pistol though, and the SMG of course doesn't have a holster animation. ODvLq_SVscw Edit: This only works if you have the unloaded gun ready for quickdraw, unless there's a console command that automatically selects a specific weapon (e.g. 'drawweapon weapon_357'), but I don't know of one. I also recorded this with a screen-capture software, so I don't know if this effect would get lost in a demo playback. Edit 2: Just tested it; demo playback seems to be okay.

How do you holster/draw weapons in GoldSrc? This effect seems much smoother than 'r_drawviewmodel 1/0'

Oh, my bad. Now I'm the silly ass.

I'm pretty sure the creator of Shepard's Mind asked Ross about that in a podcast to which Ross replied "maybe". I'll be super disappointed if he doesn't, though. EDIT: Not sure exactly what time in the video he said that, since it's nearly 2 hours long, but if you wanna look, knock yourself out. EDIT AGAIN: I remember that actually, I couldn't quite remember what the podcast was called though I linked to it you silly-ass.

Episode 17 I'm pretty sure the creator of Shepard's Mind asked Ross about that in a podcast to which Ross replied "maybe". I'll be super disappointed if he doesn't, though. EDIT: Not sure exactly what time in the video he said that, since it's nearly 2 hours long, but if you wanna look, knock yourself out. EDIT AGAIN:
