Literally missed to take every cue in G-man's manner of speech from the original series. Superb writing on his lines, truly.

the gman would never said "ill kill you"
he'd say something like "ill be sure to dispose of you"

honestly the tangent goes on for so long i started to lose track of context
What is this? Is this the FakeFactory Cinematic Mod of 2018?
who the hell is sergeant mitchell, why is he hunting freeman? from what i can tell he used to be an HECU during the whole black mesa kerfuffle, why did they not just use Adrian Shephard?

First time skipping around and I hear a breathy shitty mic from some teenager acting like a dying soldier or something
I respect hard work with no resources but uhh :v:
While its sad to see some stolen content mod get so much coverage, the trailer is pretty good. If i didn't know about the stolen assets and who are voice acting in it ( *cough* Keemstar *cough* ), id actually buy it.

Plot twist: freeman from hunt down the freeman is actually freemans mind freeman

I didn't know the models were stolen and don't know any of the voice actors and it's still bad. The whole thing tries really hard to be cool, brooding, and dramatic and the creator(s) seem to be in love with this dark messianic OC of theirs; while the voice acting is just poor (I get it, they're amateur modders, but it's still poor). Additionally, the memory power-- I don't even know why that's a thing, in the context of the Half-Life universe-- seems to serve no purpose other than to try to "world build" and give the OC a superpower. It has all the hallmarks of a poorly written fan-fiction that tries hard to be taken seriously.
The modding community is going insane waiting for Half Life 3. That's my only explanation for this mess.

Is the game really like this? The last cutscene is so bizarre you forget it's supposed to be in Half Life until they mention the Combine.

Yep, this is my video and I was actively laughing the whole time I was playing through this shit. The arm cutting, unnecessary edge, terrible voice acting all combined into this perfect mess that was too much for my sides to handle. As well as the fucking terrible combat sections that I didn't really show here, which consist of some NPCs spawned in a Gmod map firing from all fucking angles. I hope it's free so I can make a sequel to this because oh fucking boy will I NOT buy it under any circumstance.
I have a friend who's working on this. I'm not sure if they still are. I looked on their steam page and they've deleted everything from their bio so that should tell you something.

The memory shit is literally ripped from F.E.A.R
There's a lot of ideas, let alone assets, that are just badly re-purposed in this.
I wasn`t expecting so much repost. Then again this project is not going in a good direction neither.
Still suprised to see this is something a handfull of peoples has been worked on for around 2 years :v
Ok so I talked to my friend, my preconceptions were wrong.

The non-final version of the game contains maps he's made and retrofitted for the mod. These maps existed before the mod.

How the fuck do you get recruited to work on something like this and go "Yeah that's fine, this will be good?"

Probably a combination of compartmentalization and baiting people into doing work for free by saying "I just need some placeholder [voice acting/animations/setpieces/textures/models/sounds] for a project I'm working on, you'll get a [I]lllllooooootttt[/I] of credit when it's done! Just do it for the exposure!"
Like this feels like this is a project that is one like, 15 year old's dream that is getting way further than it has any right to, the writing is beyond terrible, like, genuinely a child wrote it.

The tragic backstory sounds exactly like something taken straight from MGS4 with the tragedies of all the bosses only it manages to be much worse.
I love this.
Maybe if enough overblown Half-Life projects get sufficient PR meltdowns, Valve will start producing Half-Life content up to their standard just to preserve whatever value the IP has left.

You're right, I too can't wait for Valve to rescue their decaying IP with Half-Life-themed pachinko machines.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;53073605]id genuinely love to see someone like konami get a crack at bastardizing the ip with something similar to mgsurvive, just taking characters and concepts completely out of context in a new engine with a story that makes no sense
could you imagine some kind of half life battle royale f2p monster with crowbar lootbox skins and shit[/QUOTE]
Honestly I'd like it if they outsourced the IP to willing contributors and pulled out some official fan project like Sonic Mania. From what I've heard they already tried to outsource to other companies but weren't satisfied with the results and so cancelled the projects.
Having shit management and being picky/perfectionist is the perfect recipe for having IPs sink and never resurface.

So, if they let Crowbar Collective, Tripmine Studios, half of the old world TF2 Emporium and Garry do it, [I]maybe[/I] we’d get Episode 3? Well then what are waiting for? :v:
