AES-GCM is also used in the Bluetooth Low Energy protocol, which is commonly used for IoT-purposes. As a result it’s more often than not available as a hardware-accelerated peripheral, saving both time and power. There’s also hardware-RNG available in those cases.

I think one reason nonce-reuse is a problem in IoT is lack of experience and awareness. Up until relatively recently a lot of embedded development was constrained to just offline devices, so cryptography wasn’t really required.

Play the original!

Black Mesa is a modernised version, so it plays different, more like a modern shooter. The original has aged well compared to many other games from its era.
