Over 3 Hours of Half-Life Lore

[@Skyrionn]

Welcome Resistance Fighter. While you fight back against The Combine, be sure to listen to this guide on how to destroy them. Remember your AR3s to take them down! Some may say there is no such thing as an AR3 - they've just never seen one... This a collection of some of my older Half-Life videos. No intros, no outros. Just lore. Also gimme give a "like" if you also dream about cheese.

[@jeds_basement1966]

i dreamed about cheese before it was even cool (aka before the "sometimes i dream about cheese" meme)

[@calc177]

have you played the Like a Dragon series? (aka Yakuza) you should make lore videos on that

[@fitzachella]

When L4D lore?

[@OneFreeMan17]

There is no AR3 o_O

[@ForTheFREEMAN]

welcome fighter, take up your Ar3 and prepare yourself. Don't forget, don't let it overcharge

[@HLFanboy]

I would listen to a podcast that just discusses Half Life lore for hours, days and months

[@Skyrionn]

Maybe one day!

Your videos are awesome! So amazing to see how much love and care you put into your content, everything is so well edited and you are simply a great story teller. Keep at it and don't let up! Much love from maple syrup land🦆🍁

[@SysOpQueen]

I love maple syrup land! That's the place americans pretend they're from when they go overseas!

[@Skyrionn]

Thank you so much for the donation! I really appreciate it. It generally comes from a love of the series. I have so many topics I'm excited to explore too!

[@tornado8564]

Half-Life is hands down my favorite media franchise ever because of the extravagant amount of detail and lore in the universe. I love all the work you do, Skyrionn!

[@Skyrionn]

I appreciate you watching the content!

[@diamondhamster4320]

or like 1/1000 of DnD lore or 1/10000000 of Warhammer 40K lore.

[@SoziFang64]

​@diamondhamster4320 half life is the definition of quality > quantity when it comes to lore though

[@diamondhamster4320]

@@SoziFang64 Yes, cause there is so microscopicly little of it. It is like comparing worlds smallest most detailed diamond to a giant gold ancient historical artifacts exhibition. The diamond is neat and cool but it pales in comparison to sheer size and depth of countless historical artifacts on display.

[@SoziFang64]

@diamondhamster4320 I really don't see how you think that there is not much lore and story in half-life, when the game is entirely narrative driven, having a lot of questions open for the player to interpret without them feeling like plotholes.

[@AtomicPython]

Random thought i had while watching this, not related to HL lore but I'd kill for an official Half-life lego set

[@Utfam_202]

Sadly never happening.

[@jeds_basement1966]

a lovely 3 hour mapping and modelling session, how perfect! thanks skyrionn!!

[@Skyrionn]

Happy to help out in any way!

[@DannyKS3D]

SUPER relatable 😍😍 Definetly one of my favorite stuff to do, dev while listening to HOURS long lore videos

[@AngelChaos3990]

Bruh, watching all your half-life videos is very peaceful documentaries. I would fall asleep from watching the entirety of 3 hours, too good to relax to.

[@Skyrionn]

Glad you like them!

[@chrishill1857]

"No intros, no outros, just lore" Me seeing a part of the video called "Introduction"

[@MoosenOggen4343]

This cracked me up beyond reason. Reminds me of another comment, but on a Metal Gear video that went like "-Buys anti war game. -looks inside. -War."

I’ve been putting these on as I get into bed. Something about the content and your voice helps me fall asleep. That’s a compliment not an insult lol.

[@DayvidSchricker]

When you fall asleep while watching some random bs on yt and wake up hearing „oh god please help me“. Whole new level of half life immersion.

[@fankgaming7753]

I was literally about to go back to sleep. A compilation of your videos I've already watched is what I needed. After I focus up and watch one of your videos, I routinely go back and keep them on in the background while I game, work, and sleep. Much love man, always appreciate your work

[@Skyrionn]

I'm so glad! Thanks for watching them! I appreciate you

[@GordonFreman1]

Same he is the perfect person to enjoy and sleep too his media is top tier

How bad are the other employees when the guy who is chronically late is awarded Employee of the Month?

Nice! I know what I'm going to listen to while working on DBs today. Thanks for putting out the compilation!

[@Skyrionn]

Enjoy ☺ thanks for watching this

[@Crunchedcan]

This Channel is so underrated. I love your videos and have watched every single half-life and portal video you've made and thoroughly enjoy your channel.

[@Skyrionn]

Wow, thanks! Best comment.

[@Crunchedcan]

@@Skyrionn Thank you! I wouldn't post it if I didn't mean it.

[@jackdaniels5071]

Crazy to think that the microwave was likely gordon's last act of free will, the last real time he did something because we wanted to (if we ignore the fact that he is controlled by the player)

[@kiwiplaysvr6798]

I love this video to death, but the amount of times its autoplayed while I sleep. ive watched the whole thing at least 9 times in the past like week lmao

[@danielled8665]

Omg same, it's like KZbin has decided that if it even suspects I might be sleeping, it will practically interrupt the video I'm currently watching to immediately play this one. 😂

[@derkatwork33]

My podcasts have been bumped back a slot.

[@Skyrionn]

Best compliment

[@Combinehuntsmanunit]

As a half life “fanatic” I love your videos never stop making and creating

[@Skyrionn]

It is an incredible series. I have so many more topics to cover too

[@WolfyStudio115]

I always love seeing the perspective of half life almost everyone knows and understands after learning the half life lore

[@acoolnamehere1100]

Thanks for making these videos, they're a great listen while I'm busy building models or cleaning my room. Keep up the good work!

[@americanwallace5216]

Is no one gonna talk about how the Latin motto on the Questionable Ethics symbol translates to “The Proud Way of Ignorance?”

[@FragNade]

your voice is so calming oml

[@MushroomHeavy]

109 Half-Life / Portal univerese videos! Keep up the amazing work man! (Also, as a side note, your voice is so soothing) (Also Also your story telling is unmatched, your voice, tone, and over all sound is the best ive ever heard) (Also Also Also i counted the videos with Half-Life / Portal characters in the thumbnail, title, and if the video is about Half-Life / Portal) Sorry if thats alot to read

[@sdwone]

This is absolutely GREAT for DEEP CODING!!! Thanks Skyrionn 😁

[@Skyrionn]

You're very welcome! Perfect timing

[@Fourtune1]

Just what I needed. You’re a godsend.

[@Skyrionn]

Perfect timing

[@AlexzanX89]

Watched this whilst playing with Lego. I was sorting Lego. I also play this whenever I go to bed. And also whenever I wake up I just start watching it lol

[@einsfloelexd]

3 hours Half life... I LOVE THIS SO MUCH 😍😍😍😍

[@Skyrionn]

I love that you love them. I appreciate you watching them

[@TROYSZEMA]

I fall asleep to your videos they are oddly relaxing lol

[@Skyrionn]

Glad you like them!

[@wiaf8937]

dank u well. im on a week holiday and im basically just chillin in bed, just what i needed.

[@Skyrionn]

Have fun!

[@luv-lost]

I have listened to this to sleep so many times now. Such a great narration. The Gman is such a well played and memorable character. Every time I watch and you start on HL2 the "rise and shine" part gets stuck in my head. The voice actor does such a good job. Really hits that uncanny valley. "Wake up Mr. Freeman, wake up and smell the ashes."

[@quinnthedeer28]

Thank you for helping me with work with this beautiful vid

[@elloot8478]

watching the stalker lore high asf im terrified 😂

[@roflmaohaxorz]

I would like to extend a personal thank you for this video. I remember when Laidlaw was actively dropping those posts and when he released the script for "Epistle 3", I figured Valve isn't going to take the story anywhere and this guy wrote it so this must be canon. It took a long time for people to even start really including the lore from Laidlaw in their videos and I mean, the topic had already been stale for many years. It just feels nice that someone took the time to organize all the data and to make a full video essay (a high quality one at that) and make it something that can actually be visualized. So yes, thank you Mr. Skyrionn.

[@gobbleygourdiscursed6782]

The begining really shows you the small details in the textures of half life, like the strider in the seven hour war poster. Also im sorta confused why someone who goes by skyrionn never talks about skyrim(except that one time 5 years ago) . I need a video on the most emotionally brutal ways to steal faendals crush from him

[@Skyrionn]

Half-Life is full of those small details. I did consider Skyrim, and the Elder Scrolls but there are already some amazing content creators that cover it!

[@malkeus6487]

This video pops up in my feed constantly, I'm tired of waking up to it.

[@Deha1299]

I was introduced to this legendary game in 1999. I don't remember how many times I finished it. Maybe more than 10. Half-Life is the game of my life.

[@snackastackas5349]

I have never watched this video, yet every time I fall asleep to a youtube video, this video has concluded and is paused. This has happened half a dozen times at this point.

[@KevinoftheCosmos]

Spectacularly done video. I never realized how utterly terrifying this all would be. Something similar happening feels more plausible now than ever before, imo.

[@skibur848]

I woke up to this video in the middle of the night and immediately vomited, coincidence?

[@ProjectRedfoot]

Weird, me too

[@EggZu_]

I fell asleep to this and woke up at the end where everything was described with different names and was so confused

[@saone1914]

i had no idea i needed it until now. This right here made me wanna play half life and watch more lore videos

[@KelanDoesStuff2]

I fell asleep watching youtube… apparently this played while i was asleep

[@GHAEY]

Somehow KZbin always recommends this whenever i finish watching videos.. and always end up watching thi in its entirety

[@Skyrionn]

I appreciate your service

[@peracality7648]

was thinking about rewatching to renew my knowledge and this is perfect for that

[@captainMony]

every time i fall asleep this video ends up on queued videos and end up listening to 3 hours of half life lore

[@TheHungrySlug]

I thought this would have been longer. Great watch and really well assembled. really like watching this.

[@Skyrionn]

I appreciate you putting the time into such a long video!

[@TheHungrySlug]

@@SkyrionnNot a problem, mate. You could say I am a little obsessed with Half-Life. I rather like watching your videos on repeat! Just wondering if you accidently Hearted then UN-Hearted my comment. Love your work and the way you narrate and thank you for the hours of easy listening.

[@daveemooowostreams192]

for Jeff's section Valve basically look at the last of us part two saw the rat king section and said "let's make that incredibly horrifying and make jeff basically immortal till the trash compactor."

[@helloimskip]

Can't believe KZbin autoplayed to this when I fell asleep watching a 1 hour iceberg vid. Then my phone died at the 1:50:22 mark.

[@EricShonStudio]

A new fantastic discovery! The best content to listen to while relaxing 🔥 Maybe one day there's a really thorough Diablo lore series, which is as calming and thorough as this 🙏

[@Theta90]

Love all your work, man! I'll always enjoy the HL videos, without a doubt. I have a suggestion (yes, I am THAT idea guy) if you're looking to branch out a tiny bit, like with SOMA.. Prey (2017) is an unbelievably fantastic game that I think is overlooked too often. The world is fantastically created, it has a somewhat rigid timeline of events, and so so so much background information that fill in the blanks. Is it obvious I am too into Prey? :)

[@Atomic_Apache]

This is just what I needed! Keep up the great work bud! 😁👍

[@Skyrionn]

There's so much more to come!

[@quaiacka]

Wow. when you posted your last video on G-man i thought finally! this is the one I've waiting for since discovering your channel and amazing content, and it was brilliant! and then you top that by bringing all the lore together I one video for me to watch at work in my excavator, thank you :D
