You guys realize, that in the first part of Episode 2 they had point_clientcommands all over the place making you crouch when you were crawling through the antlion caves.

It's not a matter of making the player do something, it's more of automatically doing something for the player that the player would have to do anyway. It's convenient and easier for the player.

Yeah its okay in that way, but it allows the player to be controlled, in a bad way, mainly bad if the player didn't want to do a certain action.

Indeed forcing the player to do things usually isnt a good idea

Yeah you might be close to death, and the game makes you crouch, and then you die, which would suck pretty bad.
