By far the most animalistic, terrifying and deadly portrayal of the hunter. And an acknowledgment of its role as a strider bodyguard. Also a good portrayal of a less experienced militia cell.

[@pob_42]

Definitely one of the more underused parts of HL2 is the resistance. They could have been doing a lot more active things at the beginning of HL2, but as the protagonist, Freeman is the driving force behind them. Need people like ParryGod to make great use of the setting to create these small narratives.

I love how you emphasize how scary the combine actually are. Unlike in a shooter setting were the hunters are just another enemy, this emphasizes that they are a specialist tool. Also I love the weapon variety in your animations, when you see the resistance/anti-citizens they have normal human made weapons that are not uniform were the combine have alien made weapons that are uniformly issued. It's really a nice touch.

[@pizzarune5]

Out of curiosity theparrygod, did you use the RPG model here because there isn’t a high-res model of the hl2 rocket launcher?

[@EnclaveRemnantFanboy-118]

That's because Combine issue weapons are protected with gene coded failsafes, although that's to say if Combine manufactured weapons being used by the Rebels and Freeman in HL2 and the Episodes was retconned with what was shown in Half-Life Alyx. But we'll have to wait until the next Half-Life game, won't we?

I think my favorite part, horrifically, was the dude shot in the head. The look on his face wasn't generic or anything, it definitely looked like someone whose brain was firing all sorts of wrong as it tried to understand what trauma it just suffered. Not thrown off his feet unrealistically, not just a ragdoll fall. Just confusion and terror. And the exit wounds on the head were doubly impressive. Well done.

You just awoke my childhood fear of hunters. I remember having nightmares about them chasing me through the woods. The scariest part was that I'd think I'd out smart them, but they're smart and cunning, so I'd hide in a house or something, thinking they would just look for me else where like a normal animal, but they bust the doors down and look for me under beds and behind doors. This is also extremely well done. Exceptional visuals.

It's still very much darker than the original game, but where the beta has this Orwellian dystopia focus on horror, and when we focus on the rebels it's these terrifying, hunt or be hunted game they're constantly playing with the world around them.

[@Conservative4]

Another animation that makes me wish for more. The Combine are probably the most interesting alien empire out there. I have this personal theory that, knowing earth is one of untold thousands they have taken, their real goal is to fight elder gods…. By using technology and empire to become elder gods. That’s why the “G Man” seems to be an enemy of them. They’ve been looking for “him” for a long time. My theory is probably not anywhere near close, but I think its enough to make you wonder… They won the war in 7 hours. If combine hunters are running rear security patrol, what do they have on the front lines?

[@youbaouahdi4358]

I like to think that the "G Man" is a neutral guy who isn't particularly motivated by anything apart from satisfying his employers and gathering assets to complete his contracts (IE: Gordon Freeman), my longest theory is that one he takes contracts from various employers and one of them demanded control over Xen, and another demanded the killing of breen and the weakening of the combines grip on Earth, which is why when he started the resonance cascade (which could be another contract or part of the Xen contract) he quickly picked up on how Gordon was unnaturaly good at dealing with these sorts of situations and hired him.

[@Conservative4]

Gordon was ALWAYS “hired.” In a way. Well he was a candidate since before the black mesa incident. And we can tell in HL2 that there is some negotiation across all parties, but from HL:A, we can tell the combine considers him, and probably his employers, enemies. He was imprisoned and the moment alyx released him he went ALL OVER the place. I think he was taking revenge on the combine. But overall I get the impression that the G-Man’s employers are a single group. The combine just negotiates with them, like armies conducting diplomacy in warfare. The difference is the combine are mortals that ascended to the level of the demi-godhood that the GMan already existed him. That’s why Breen liked them so much

[@SirKolass]

@@youbaouahdi4358 I'm pretty sure he's part of the group by the way he talks about them.

[@SirKolass]

@@Conservative4 People are theorizing that g-man and his employers' whole purpose is to keep the combine from getting the teleport technology, because they would get too powerful, and it all matches up. Since they knew exactly what g-man was and how to trap him, I'm pretty sure they're rivals out there. What the Combine did to imprison g-man seemed to me like just a temporary prison they quickly came up with, since they just grabbed an entire building and used vortigaunts to trap him. Imagine what they have outside earth.

[@youbaouahdi4358]

@@SirKolass idk i always felt like G-Man let himself get captured on purpose by the combine, and the whole game is the G-Man's test to see if Alyx is qualified to be hired by the G-Man, kinda like Half Life 1 where he keeps an eye on Gordon and hires him for what he was capable of doing. I don't think someone as powerful as the G-Man is easily gonna get captured by the Combine forces on earth (I mean look at HL2 and how Gordon alone gives them a hard time), so he let himself get captured to see if Alyx is worth hiring.

Hunters have always been my favorite Half-Life enemy, from my first encounter with them. They're smart, faster than you, half way between a hunting dog and a movie monster, and have automatic grenade launchers on their face. And now they're stalking the S2FM animation space as well...

It must be horrifying to face with even one of them when you just a regular rebel without cool powerarmor, arsenal of weapons and gravity gun. You cant kill them fast - they too armored. You cant run from them on foot - they way more mobile. You even cant rely on your bodyarmore, if you have one - they darts are explosive and hurt you even if dont penetrate. You only have some chanses if you have an AR2 with energy ball, or engage at long range, open fire first and pray that you have enough firepower to kill a hunter before it was close enough for accurate dart shot. Or you can hide and maybe it won't look for you carefully.

The Combine sounds are so ominous. This is fantastic.

Wonder if this video will get age restricted because of that?

It just occurred to me Half-Life creatures sound similar to modems singing to each other

That was absolutely brutal and shocking. Hunters seriously are some of the most terrifying combine forces there are in my opinion. They seem like such a streamlined predator.
