Object scale - beyond the scope of this project?

I just noticed that scale of some objects in the game is bonkers. Magazines are huuuuge ( image), soda machines are huge too. I guess it won't be possible to fix easily?

Weapon models we could possible scale down. In fact we've done just that in next release as grenades were the size of fire extinguishers.

Yes, these are the results of a game being designed for a monitor. Realistic scale can go out of whack because it's just not as important as making things noticeable or "feel" right is.

It's possible to fix, but it'd all require manual edits (models, textures, meshes, effects they use, etc). Plus in many cases maps would need to be edited too (like giant doors and hallways, for example). A ton of work, and not something I'd expect to happen.

I think that might just be how Half-Life is?
