and yet i haven't seen a single example of my like, hidden favorite thing in old retro shooter games: the ability to setup private servers for bafflingly ill-conceived multiplayer modes. Sure, there's some multiplayer throwbacks, but that's not what i'm looking for; i'm looking for a SINGLE player boomer shooter that just goes "hey wanna make a private server to kill your buddies in go nuts here you go". i don't want a live service game i want half life multiplayer servers, ya know?
i know that'd be a ton of work so i'm not surprise it hasn't been done, but like, i'd love to see it if anyone DOES try it.
