    so annoyed rn my proudest gaimng moment this week: i got Little Rocket Man in Half-Life 2: Episode Two.

    The achievement requires carrying a specific garden gnome from early in the episode all the way to the rocket at the finale and putting it inside. You carry it with the gravity gun and stash it in teh car during the driving sections.

    It fell out about six times. i went back for it every time. At teh end the gnome went to space and i felt like Id raised a child.

    Strider fights are where most people lose the gnome. Park it somewhere safe before the big battles. lmk how it goes

    it works on my machine™

    if you're doing a commentary run, Valve's developer commentary talks about why little things like this exist.

    ok so save often. if the gnome gets lost or destroyed, relaoding is much easier than backtracking.

    Put teh gnome in the passenger area of the car. Its less likely to fly out than if you balance it on the back.
