Half-Life VR:AI But The Cast is Commentating (ACT 1)

- The party is not over. The G-Man demands it.
As HLVR:AI was a series that we had to be very secretive over during production, I thought it would be great to get the cast together and give HLVR:AI some Blu-Ray Disc Special Features. Join us as we re-watch the entirety of the series and talk about our favorite parts, what went wrong, things that didn't make it in the final cut (or just plain didn't show up on stream), *secrets*, and more. And on top of that, the last bit of this video features RARE Behind The Scenes footage recorded by our stagehand. Which means you get to see the series from outside the VR perspective. and hoo boy, Gordon isn't as pretty as you'd think.
This is a longer video: barring the intro and some quality of life edits and additions, this is mostly how it went down on stream. We also paced it horribly, there's much less pausing in the future commentaries.

When you hear how Benry sounds in HD compared to the in-game compression it really does make every line a lot more innocent. Something about the compression just makes him sound really malevolent while also disinterested, like he's doing a job but get gets some sort of joy out of causing problems for people. When it's HD it just sounds like he's genuinely confused or concerned most of the time.
He sounds like a really angry kid on a public tf2 server
The compression makes Scorpy sound like a gmod server admin, which explains so much about Benrey's character.
Martin Doyle lol no

he sounds like an early 2000s stoner playing an online game on his computer with a shitty scratchy mic that is just half ass going along and fucking with a bunch of nerdy people roleplaying

When g man says the incident wouldn't've happened if he brought his passport, he was correct. Gordon describes how it went wrong as "three samples, one test subject, kaboom" implying that multiple people in the room was the cause of the cascade. The only reason benrey followed Gordon was due to his lack of pass port. Tommy and bubby going in was also due to benrey being in there. With all this evidence, it is clear this all really *could* have been avoided if Gordon brought his pass port
Technically true, although that’s assuming Gordon is smart enough to be right about why it happened, and could someone without their passport REALLY be that smart?
@@sorio99in addition to the fact that he says he doesn't know what a resonance cascade is.
One of my favorite underrated moments is when Wayne tries calling a vote for the scientist's life and asks the group to say "I", and when the scientist is immediately shot Bubby just goes "Ay, ay, ay"
sAme
AGREED
Yep
This
And its perfect because someone does a sad vuvuzela in the background as Bubby says that. There is a few times where someone uses the sad vuvuzela to great success

0:58 Love how the G-Man, an interdimensional being with near unlimited power, used a regular gun to threaten Gordon.
To be fair, the threat of getting shot is something a human is quick to understand. The others are waiting, so getting into _another_ verbal argument with Gordon is not desired.
it's such a weird power move
Better to use a threat he could understand, than one he couldn't?
it makes sense for his admittedly unexplored character so far. plus, the gman has a pistol in his briefcase.
At this point if he threatened Gordon with some extradimensional weapon Gordon is more likely to argue with him over how effective it is. A .357 magnum though? Everyone knows what that does
I like how when the scientist NPC’s express pain, Wayne interprets it as anger/stubbornness and that they are trying to annoy him personally
By scientist NPC’s I don’t mean Holly Baullp, scrorpy, or Gir
To be fair, you deal with HL1 NPC’s long enough, that’s just how you feel about them.

I mean comparing this Gordon to Freeman's Mind Gordon is wrong. The Freeman's Mind one is trying to make sense of the complex; AI Gordon is embracing the madness slowly over the series.
Also, Ross's Freeman is an asshole, hyper-competent, and borderline sociopathic. Wayne's Gordon is the baffled straight man.
Cinematic Perpendiculars
Two takes on parody of HL1
fair to compare
anyways cock
I think the difference between the two is, FM Gordon is acting almost solely off the original game, so while he occasionally makes lucid references to the odd in-universe implications, he mostly has to shoulder most of the comedy. Wayne’s Gordon, meanwhile, in addition to just being a lot closer to Wayne, has the AI to bounce off of, which both lets him play the straight man AND gives him more room for a different kind of crazy.

In HL2, however, that entity was made to spawn only the skull gib. All these maps still use the original entity names which is why like 5 million skulls pop out of vents sometimes.
For instance, that bit where there's a scientist surrounded by skulls right after you meet the peeper puppies? There's supposed to be random hl1 gibs shooting out of that bloody vent in front of him.
This would probably make a lot more sense if I knew what a gib was lol
@@Maski500 it's called google
@@Maski500 doesn't know what a gib OR the internet is?
I tried to not laugh throughout this whole thing but when Holly said "the woman behind the slaughter" I fell over laughing

Imagine if someone was breaking into Baaulp’s house when he was kid, they search the drawers and find his tic tacs
It's only just occurred to me that Benrey's "niiice" was to the other guard talking about how his target range time was finally gonna pay off.
Honestly, I would love a “Half Life Vr, but the AI is self aware 2.” That would be amazing. Remaking the entire half-life 2 story with the characters you know and love, and some new ones.
I feel that this entire thing was so incidentally great that its a thing that just should be left as it is
Wayne has said on stream that HL2VRAI will be a thing, but the characters will not move forward into that game. The Science Team's story is over, it's time for a new story with new characters.
@@admirallily6791 NOOOOOO
“About that passport I owe you”
@@probes-e-minor sorry *shrug*
holly is like the mascot for this whole thing. love her work in this.
dr coomer is really the only AI that becomes Self-Aware, so in her coomer aspect yeah
I'm alarmed by how much Tommy sounds like Tommy when he's talking like himself ; - ;
RIGHT? baaulp has such a very specific voice I wasn't expecting it to have that same wavery quality tommy does
Its pretty uncanny.
mike: G-Hand/stageman
the best spelling error ive seen in a while
?
TuckeredOut 28 it’s supposed to be G-man/stagehand
Head canon: when the passports were destroyed, benrey became vulnerable and and was defeated, but not killed. He still exists but his powers are weakened so about that of the gmans, but since he's benrey he's not really a threat anymore.
"Oh no, my drawer full of tic tacs was in there! We need the calories!"
I love how Mike keeps changing his discord name from time to time for no reason.
no, actually another friend of theirs, Mira, was doing that.
@Rose Shrimp Oh.
36:47 just came back to this video after a while to rewatch it and i just realised that Mike was changing nicknames to incomprehesible garbage during this section and it makes me appreciate this video 100% more
1:25:30 The reason that the soldier waited is due to how the AI works. Once the AI performs an action, they have to wait until that action is finished before doing anything else. In this case, their action was "waiting", probably to make sure the AI didn't bug. Once his wait timer ran out, he then attacked.
Technical explanation for the f-ed up textures from lasers
It appears to be using the texture 'bigshot1' which is a decal that has no alpha layer to occlude the sides of it, and the texture itself is really large for some reason. I'm not sure if this issue is also present in Half-Life Source, but this texture was probably different originally or was planned to be changed, but that never happened.
Big shot? Spamton g spamton reference!!!?!!?!!!?!
@@segadoeswhatnintendontgood feel
I just realized
A: I’ve never actually seen his face before this video
And B: I never freaking read people’s channel names
I recognized him *immediately* from the “THERE IS NO FRIDGE” clip from Fax Hell that made me laugh for like, 4 days afterward XD
HE IS THR FRIDGE GU
DUDE OH HM GOS
that's like
my FAVORITE meme-
Wait, you've never seen his face, *and* you immediately recognized him?
@@ryantalley5284
I saw his face separately from HLVR: Ai, in a completely unrelated video he did. I didn’t realize until I saw him here that it was the same guy. But that fridge thing he did is seared into my brain, I see it behind my eyelids whenever I blink, it was so shocking
I love when Gman pulled a gun on Gordon. Classic Half Life.
Well, it is a faster analogue ofvthe battle he has no chance of winning.
@@yegorgribenuke6853 IDK, kinda seems like an anticlimax after what he just survived.
@@goodoldgamer9675 But Gordon did choose wisely though.
@@vikram03 I guess that means we'll see Gordon up ahead.
@@goodoldgamer9675 Definitely when his time comes again.
Gotta thank Vinesauce for giving the series a call out after chat told him about it, that is what brought me and probably a good deal of people in, loved every minute of the series!
Binyot is a man of culture
which stream was it?
It MIGHT have been during his Half life google translated stream
I came here from eddache.
I actually found the series after Slimecicle referenced it (in his human fall flat video I think) and someone mentioned it in the comments.
