I played through recently and I beat it but I distinctly remember thinking that I didn’t remember it being that hard. It took me several tries and very precise timing, I think I even ended up coming back to it the next day.
Glad they are fixing it, though it makes it hard not to speculate more about an upcoming sequel. I think they will call it HL2 Episode 3 just to fuck with everyone.
I thought it was strange on steam that it was so hard to get across when I was sure when I played it on Xbox that I basically did it first try no sweat.
There is indeed! My kid played it on the switch and loved it. Well, right up to the point where they couldn’t proceed due to a level being completely broken. They ended up having to finish the last few stages on my PC instead.

That explains a lot. I remember it not requiring that strict timing.
Look, I don’t care if it’s fake or not, but beating trains is uncalled for violence.
#trainsrights for all!
Ugh finally. I thought I was having a fever dream about beating it on the bridge back in the day. I never realized the bug was that old.
I thought I had done it, but I have only played it since after it was made impossible. I guess I didn’t
It was possible after the update. Just way more difficult.

HL2: Episode 2: Part 2
They can’t count to 3
You’re right! But that means it will be HL2: Episode 2: Episode 1, just to bring things full circle.

Nah, it’ll be Half Life Alyx: Epsiode 1.
My speculation? They’ll call it HL4 and then just say that HL:A was technically HL3
Technically?

Wait, they didn’t fix that with the anniversary update?! What the fuck?!
Wow! I somehow never knew this bug existed. I guess it’s been a long time since I played this one. 😅
Now, how about fixing game-breaking bugs on the Switch version of Portal 2?
I didn’t even know there was a switch version
There is indeed! My kid played it on the switch and loved it. Well, right up to the point where they couldn’t proceed due to a level being completely broken. They ended up having to finish the last few stages on my PC instead.
