I presume a playtester managed to get up into the vent and went "hey why's there no secret item here?" and so instead of player clipping off the vent, a mapper at valve decided to throw in a battery.

Everything beyond the upper turn of the vent is technically outside of canon. The battery could just fall from beyond that side.

I've occasionally seen people find the SMG grenade on a machine in the room that leads to the barrels you shoot to swing a girder into a door but never by climbing the tiny one-hand ladder attached to the machine. My point is this game has some super obscure secrets. Like the one dumpster with an actually climbable ladder on it & a box inside.

i always imagined the armor working like a magnetic coil. Coils can work both ways: 1. when bullets fly near them they can produce energy (impact area location) 2. when you apply power to them, they can push bullets (bullet deflection) basically, whenever you sense electric current in a coil, you just apply an enormous amounts of current in reverse to the said coil those supercapacitor battery cells should be perfect for this massive power for a brief moment

For using electricity for armor, if I recall correctly, there was an idea for the Future Force Warrior power armor concept to use electrically responsive gel armor that could harden to protect the wearer. Instead of using impact armor that hardened from kinetic force, it used electricity to harden the armor for a split second. This was done so it could also be used to turn the armor into a splint or brace if the soldier got injured without having to remove the armor itself. The concept has never been actually implemented due to the insane power requirements and the fact you can just use material properties for a similar effect, but hey, it does exist at least on paper.

"I fail to see how adding power to a suit will make it more resistant to bullets." Well "powered armor" is something that has been experimented with in real-life in the military, and the proper name of one of the more known variations is "magnetorheological fluid". Adding power can totally make a material composition more bulletproof in theory. That, along with exosuits, which again are very real, make this actually one of the more believable and plausible concepts in the Half-Life universe.

Clearly we see you in the Nihilanth's chamber. We bear witness to the bright eternity of the Nihilanth's demise. You leap, you fall, we see you flash beyond the barriers. For a brief time you joined with us. You are one. Between the worlds. Communion of the vortessence. And that other: a deeper mystery. No deeper than the void itself. We cannot forget those whose cords you cut. Forgiveness is not ours to bestow. Unity of purpose, the shattering of common shackles, as single road we tread. Your song we sing and shall sing for eternity. No matter the consequences of this struggle. You have brought us grief and jubilation beyond measure. We are there still, in observance of your final stroke. While our lay scattered at your feet, you severed the vortal cord that bound the Nihilanth to life, and to us. That sharp spur of hope has not dulled to this day. For once the lesser master lay defeated, we knew the greater must also fall in time. With you beside us, a talisman of victory, the day of freedom draws nigh. Your bright face obscures your darker mask. We call you sib, although your mind and meaning are a mystery to us. Far distant eyes look out through yours. Something secret steers us both. We shall not name it. We have endured these chafing bonds of eons, yet a single moment of further servitude seems intolerable! How often have we slipped our yoke, only to find it choking us again. Let this war end in either total victory or our extinction. No further compromise shall we allow. We take our stand beside you, here, upon this miserable rock. The way ahead is dark for the moment. What seems to you a sacrifice is merely, to us, an oscillation. We do not fear the interval of darkness. We are tapestry woven of vortessence. It is the same for you if only you would see it. How many are there in you? Whose hopes and dreams do you encompass? Could you but see the eyes inside your own, the minds in your mind, you would see how much we share. We are you, Freeman.

"Anyone whose tried using this thing for any extended period of time will tell you it's an absolute nightmare."

We had a good 4 weeks to do it in and in that time I learned two things: Hammer crashes more than any Adobe product. Hammer lags more than any Adobe product. All I managed to do was create a series of coloured blocks and triangles representing the building and the carpark and a presentation where Hammer crashed about as many times as it did throughout the past 4 weeks, further cementing how fucking awful an idea it was. But I still got a B for the effort so there's that, at least.
