Lol, I agree, but it will be shitty Framerate.
Half Life 1 RTX and Portal 1 RTX both brought my 3080 to its knees, I'm not looking forward to these unless I can get some sort of playable performance through DLSS lmao

Demo is only 41gb. Steam is working on fixing the number it's displaying.
That's....still a lot.
Portal 1 RTX is about 17GB and that's not even a demo.
I don't know how much content there is in the HL2 RTX Demo granted Portal 1 is still pretty short but damn

Portal 1's asset count is much much lower. Its all test chambers with reused textures, and repeated models. Half-Life 2 has a much bigger variety (as well as number in general) of assets, for all of the different areas in the game. Even the stuff that is reused between areas is a much greater amount. Hence the admitidly very large install size for even the demo.
It ran like shit and I felt misled I thought it was gonna be a full game, that’s what it felt like when it was being advertised as lol

ray tracing soooo overhyped

its not even ray tracing its fully pathtraced
the thing is the original game already does this... it just bakes the lighting down into an image so it isn't realtime
albeit at a super low texel value so it looks horrid compared to 2025, but I can rip the exact same map, bake lighting on it, and have it look identical to the pathtraced result in HL2RTX. people just want Muh Realtime Graphics so much that they don't care if it's running at 1/5th their refresh rate
at least the people that made the assets did a great job...
here's some of the assets being used on a cs map from gamebanana
