Half Life Alyx did, and in my opinion exceeded it.

Was there hype for this? As far as I remember this only turned out to be impressive after reviews started rolling in.

(not contesting thr experience itself, I just don't remember the pre-release hype)

It came out of nowhere and nobody ever expected Valve to come back to the Half-Life series.

It is technically a sequel to Half Life 2 so I'd say there was some hype to it.

There absolutely was hype for HLVR in the community, and to be clear any successor to Half Life 2 Episode 2.

I was a VR buff and a Half Life fan but I was blown away by how good it was and it’s ending.
