Half-Life 2 Downfall is like going to a fancy restaurant, ordering food and then the waiter comes back and gives you 1 quarter of what you asked for.

I'm going to say this: I don't think this mod is bad, I hate how it just ends. I do have a lot of thoughts about this mod and how it's probably dead (that's most mods in a nutshell) If you like this mod, I really don't care about you or your thoughts. I do think this is a good mod, I was just fooled is all.

Pros:
- It's a Half-Life 2 EP2 mod.
- The environment looks alright.
- Level design is fine I guess.
- The gameplay is also fine because it's just HL2
- The music is well… HL2 so it's good
- Okay basically it's HL2 EP2 so it's pretty much good, but there's no Alyx.

Cons:
- The story sucks because well….. there isn't much of a story other than how the Combine want to destroy scientist technology. Who are these scientists? Why does the Combine want to destroy the tech? Why are the scientists not at White Forest? What's so important about this tech? None of these fu cking questions will be answered because I think the developer stop all means of development for the mod. I say this because the Mod DB page and the steam version hasn't been updated since 2017 in the timing of this review. Well I guess that mystery will never be fu cking solved.
- This mod is too short, what the fu ck dude? How this mod ends I found to be laughable for some reason. The mod just ends, which sucks because I would like to play more of the mod.
- This mod was fun, but it sucks how the mod isn't finished and probably never will be finished. I'm pi ssed off that the game doesn't have more to offer, I am very disappointed with this mod. :(

Half-Life 2 Downfall isn't a bad mod, it's just not finished. If you love mods, play this because you'll get some enjoyment out of it. Maybe someday the developer will come back to work on the mod, kind of like how my wife left me and took the kids with her. Anyways, pretty good mod actually, you should play it. Though don't be expecting a finished mod. But I can say how this mod is better than HDTF and Wilson Chronicles; those mods suck ass don't play them.

But do you want to play a really good fu cking mod? No? Oh, I see how you are, okay goodbye…………*Cry Noises*.............................

Okay seriously though, a mod that is similar to Downfall is Mission Improbable. This mod is really fu cking awesome and is my favorite EP2 mod out there. The story is basic but workable, there's a new character who is beautiful (no ♥♥♥♥), gameplay is fun and the mod is fu cking FINISHED!!!!! OMG!!!! Mission Improbable is incredible and fun as hell!! Downfall may not be finished, but Mission Improbable is. I could suck Mission Improbable's di ck all day!! Just play it already!!

Go play it right now: https://www.runthinkshootlive.com/posts/mission-improbable/
What the fu ck are you still doing? Play it you fu ck!

I'm getting off topic, sorry about that. Downfall is a pretty alright mod, play it. I just hope maybe some day the developer will finish it.
