    NOTE: This video title is technically a lie. Half-Life: Decay doesn't turn 20 years old until November 14, 2021. However, I decided to solve the mystery of this Easter egg several months in advance so as to deny it this accomplishment. Let this be a lesson to the rest of you Half-Life Easter eggs who think you can outwit me for over two decades!

      Btw, this video was actually posted a bit back, but it was uploaded as unlisted by accident i believe, so no one got notified about it.
      I was only able of finding this out through his Half-life playlist, along with some other people

      Its heavily inspired by the logo of Amuro Ray of Gundam, which is kinda fun to think about when you combine the fact that the Polyrobo is a Zentradi Battlepod from Macross/Robotech. Seems like there was a good bit of proto-weebs on the Dev Team.

    You know, i just realised that "questionable ethics" guard is special
    He is the ONLY guard that wont talk:
    With other npc's
    When he kills something
    Or about the smell
    The "dont talk to npc's" code also applies to all scientists found after "we've got hostiles" chapter, but for other reasons
    They had to scrap it because of two lines
    "The military clean up its just a paranoid rumour isn't it"
    And
    "Someome will come to rescue us, right?"
    It isn't nessesary to explain why they had to remove their voice lines after "we've got hostiles" chapter right?
    Well, there's an exception, in lambda core there are 3 trapped scientists wich can talk with each other
    wich make's sense because it seems that they were trapped in there since the start of the resonade cascade
    Those details deserve more attention tbh

Watching LPs that show Colette's perspective (or both perspectives), every one I've found so far shows different perspectives for the two characters. 🤔

    What about the broken viewmodel bobbing and camera tilt (tilting as in how it is in Quake) in Half-Life?

    So how do you switch to Colette's view?
    He must have spent more than just a couple seconds programming those electrical arcs even though they can't be normaly seen. Wow.

      It really wouldn't take long to write a script that does that; place the boxes down, generate arcs in between specific ones. 5-10 minutes work max.

    So I downloaded the maps betrayed.bsp and darkness2.bsp on both my WON CD pre-Steam version of TFC and my Steam version of TFC. For some strange reason, both maps have lot's of missing textures on both versions. How can I fix this issue, Marph?

    • @MarphitimusBlackimus

      Are you sure you're have the right map files? Both maps have all of their map textures embedded within the BSP files themselves.
