I think you underestimate the amount of "entertainment" poor people get from "making little clones of themselves" (especially if they don't know about how to prevent making clones with tools). In our current world and history, conditions are and have been terrible, but people still had LOTS of children. If the suppression field goes away (by either combine directive or rebellion) then I think there would be a massive baby boom by people with nothing to do besides make little clones of themselves. Things would only slow down once a middle class develops and eclipses the poor. Only then, people might start slowing down willingly (like in the real world).

why do you sound like Chills?

Slight error at 7:30. The suppression field is actually maintained by the Overwatch Nexus by 3 energy ball generators. It is that part with barney where you get ambushed inside a room.

A quick note on how this can be an homage to real life. Dismantling the very desire to reproduce is, in my view, the most effective way to decimate a population, rather than physically prohibiting them from doing so. In the 21st century, western culture has been specifically tailored to suppress the desire to procreate and bear children, as well as to systematically dismantle the family structure. So far it has proven to drive the population into a steadfast decline without the need of any sci-fi energy fields. Moreso, people are perfectly content to live in such a society. As always, reality has outdone fiction even in this one.

its funny how actual governments are working on banning reproduction rights, but in a sense of making sure people reproduce more and don't get access to abortion by any legal means. I would rather live in a world where people can't have children then in a world where they are forced to have children.

It's basically Khala of Protoss and Kollektive 2.0 in Atomic Heart.

So basically the Combine did what the woke wanted.

Suppression Field : *Shut down* Eli : 🤭 Alyx : 😳 Gordon : 🤐 🤵💼

what mods are u using for the gameplay?

the Suppression Field doesn't apply to gordon freeman he's to hot

Imagine being the survivor of a massive multi-billion holocaust, to live in a literal hell on earth, and knowing that you are the last of the human species, so after you die, humanity itself will be gone.

So does this mean we can raw dawg Alyx care free in Half Life 3? Can we get a video on this? Great video as always!

Would you indulge in a reproduction simulator in the future?

The end of the human race.

Truly one of the worst fates to suffer in the half life universe. Thanks for watching! Let me know what you think about this topic down below . 🎉

Cool thumbnail! Keep up the great work :)

Imagine dragons

lesson learned: don’t use a sample that has “GG” in it’s name

What a high quality video for such low views, sad. but i hope more people find this, your monotone is quite interesting too. By that i mean, despite the lack of tone - i think it makes it better as it does not feeel like you are forcing it, or trying to hard to be exciting.

Number Fifteen: The Foot Lettuce Cascade. The last thing you want in your underground research facility is alien borderworld fungus, but as it turns out, that might be what you get.

The beginning was one toned that was hard to understand what you were saying but you switched it up later in the video. I tried not to focus on the tired lifeless voice at start but the content of it instead and you had some interesting ideas which kept me watching.

Please talk with more enthusiasm my guy, you sound like Chills.

Great video, I can tell your content has improved a lot recently. The B Roll is especially something else. Looking forward to more and Happy New Year!

Thank you for watching and happy holidays! Let me know down below your thoughts on the video or any new year resolutions you may have. 🎉

Nice

peak

XD you're home, go high. Jolly Saint Nick with his Vort elves have been busy all year dropping resistance supply crates to the good humans still alive. Good will to Freeman, peace on Earth.

Cool breakdown, hope to see more HL vids. HL2 Vorts kept saying that Eli Vance was considered top priority to destroy the Combine. Then all of Gordon's efforts up to the end of Episode 2 leads to Eli's death. The way HL Alyx retcons this (cheaply IMO) adds another layer to the cosmic game between G-Man, the Vorts, and the Combine. Very curious where the story goes from here.

The G-man is actually the baby in the picture inside Gordon’s locker

Merry Christmas! Santa was probably captured by the Combine to milk for his secrets to portal technology that allows him to hop around giving out presents...

4 seconds of complete silence made me turn my headphones to max and then i got jumpscared by "It's christmas daayyy.."

Both have green eyes, too

I've always thought that the G in G-man stands for government.

nice video, 1 piece of evidence i didnt see you bring up though was at the end of hl1 when youre on the tram with gman, he offers freeman to go into stasis or die, gman clearly wouldnt kill his past self as itd kill him to, and if he was freeman he wouldve not given the option and forced him into stasis (sorry if i got some stuff wrong i havent played hl1 in a good while)

Quick thing, I am liking the video and will still watch from the point I have paused you bringing up HL;OF and HL;BS as a source to fight on its own is a bad choice only due to the fact that apparently whenever Valve has made/makes a Half Life game they make it without keeping those two games in mind.. I mean you can use said points as helping points to boost any theory/ debunking but you cant utilise this as its own major point and seeing how the HL;OF point seems to be announced on its own I will say you have me with a few less points then to those who dont actually know about the two side games canonicity.. Also believe me, I would love to have HL;BS as Canon but seeing how we dont see any of those characters return as of yet its hard to say for certain whether its canon (also yes, I said I would love to see HL;BS as Canon without mention HL;OF.. Although HL;OF had great gameplay its story doesnt feel as connected compared to HL;BS does even with a few characters not returning and also seeming like they dont at all exist.. With a slightly well rewritten character cast throughout the overall game, I think the story would work beyond like as example instead of Rosenberg you do Kleiner or Eli.. I am rambling now but you know.. XD)

G-Man obviously isn't a future Gordon, he's Barney, after all, they share a voice actor. /s

u sound like chills

Number 17. The last thing you'd want in your Combine Citadel Base is Gordon Feetman, but that might be what you get as this reddit user found out

He's clearly an alien impersonating a human or something like that. The way he speaks, all his misterious powers and such, i really believe he's an alien lifeform.

While i dont believe the Gman is Freeman, i do think the argument can be made that the jacket in Freemans locker in hl2 points as evidence since it resembled the color of Gmans suit jacket

This guy talks like chills

Gman is chell from the past

I heard a theory that Gman made himself look vaguely like Gordon to essentially taunt him. Idk I still think it’s two different beings

10:44 this sound scrared me buh

Number 15 g-man is freeman theory debucked

wake and bake, mr.freeman, wake and...bake... not that i wish to imply you have been smoking on the job...

Probably the biggest evidence against the idea of them being the same person that I can think of is that the G-Man often comes off as antagonistic, if not quite hostile. He directs others to follow along a certain path, but he does so in a way that is beneficial moreso for his own best interests rather than theirs. He barely even maintains the illusion of benevolence, appearing only just friendly enough for others to cooperate with him but while also maintaining a position of dominance and a sense of apathy towards others. He cares about things getting done and puts those capable of doing these things in position to do so, but he doesn't care about the people themselves and has very limited patience when they don't cooperate. This often leaves others feeling very negatively towards him after the fact, with him screwing over Eli in particular repeatedly to the point the poor guy hates his guts. Gordon is antithetical to this. While we don't get to see his personality directly as his actions are the players and in the first game we could even make him into a murderous psychopath if we so desire, his canonical personality appears to be a much more kind and selfless one. He rescued scientists at Black Mesa, freed the Vortigaunts from captivity, and has continued to fight for freedom where he can along the way helping others as he goes. Gordon actively puts his own neck on the line for the sake of others who can't defend themselves and doesn't ask for anything in return, only taking that which is offered to him in thanks. The path he walks isn't strictly for his own benefit, but for the benefit of others. This has given him a messianic reputation; the name "Freeman" is regarded highly and he finds himself often respected by friends and strangers alike. To suggest that Gordon eventually goes on to become the G-Man is to suggest that Gordon eventually goes on to throw away everything and everyone he once fought for, all for personal gain. It's not just an unsatisfying conclusion to Gordon's story, it's the ultimate bad ending in which the hero who sacrificed so much for the sake of others obtains ultimate power and then proceeds to use it against those he once fought so hard for. This could be satisfying if the story direction was for Gordon to reject this version of himself and ultimately defeat him, but this would also be a cringeworthy cliche that would be distinctly unlike Valve's usual writing direction. I find it much more likely that the similarities between the two characters exist to thematically put them at odds against each other, rather than to tie them together as the same person. They are metaphorically two sides of the same coin; A selfless hero who prevails against all odds against him for the sake of others on one side, and a selfish bureaucrat with ultimate power who directs things towards his own benefit for the sake of some unknown "employers" on the other. Not so different at a surface level, and yet entirely different at the fundamental level.

gman

In my opinion, G-Man is a representation of the writers, and his employers are Valve. When you take that into consideration, a lot of the things he says make a lot more sense.
