The broad, early 2012 launch window of the pretty little Half-Life 2 mod-turned-full Steam game Dear Esther has been narrowed down to a sleek, streamlined release date. The game's official website just announced the title will arrive on Steam February 14 -- that's Valentine's Day, lovers -- for a cool $10. Or a hot $10, or any other temperature bill you feel like forking over.
The site also posted a handful of new screens, such as the one above. See, it's got candles! That just screams "romantic Valentine's Day plans" to us.

Woah. A Half Life 2 single player mod is actually finished!
That doesn't happen very often.
Looks promising.

A ton of them get finished.
It's just the ones that people actually look forward to that are in a seemingly endless "production stage."
Yes, I am looking at you Black Mesa Source.

That's what I mean. I'm not that into multi player mods so all the awesome stuff I got goosebumps for in 2005-2007 never seemed to happen. :(
I was a lot younger and probably easier to please, but the half life 1 single player mods were pretty awesome, at least the top 10 or so were. I was disappointed when so many promising projects using source never were officially released.

Wait, does this have all the chapters? I played the first part when it originally released and I loved it. I knew they were working on more, so if this is the full deal I'll gladly pay for it.
