this puzzle is the worst puzzle in the history of half-life. just in terms of it being broken

With the physics engine in HL2, instead of "cheating" it or making it pre simulated, they wanted it all to work in real time and be legitimate. Some physics puzzles worked really well. But this is by far one of the worst implemented puzzles in a valve game. With all the polish in everything else in HL2 this is a major outlier.

The puzzle itself is rather simple to solve the issue is attempting to get on top of the physics object, and then jump off of it. Half of the time you slide off of it and when you do get on top it eats you input causing you to not be able to jump. It's so janky and shows the big disconnect between the simulated physics objects and the player.

what a shit load of fuck
