I Finally Understand The Heartbreak Behind Half-Life...

Video Description

Half-Life 2 Episode 1 follows the immediate aftermath of Half-Life 2. The destruction of the Citadel has lead to the mass evacuation of CIty 17, and it's up to Gordon Freeman, Alyx Vance, and the rest of the humans there to escape as quickly as possible and hold off the Combine's reinforcements for as long as they can. Episode 2 picks things up right where things were left off at the end of Episode 1. An infant "superportal" has emerged from the ruins of the Citadel, and if it's not closed off soon, it will be the end of Earth once and for all. Watch me experience the collective heartbreak of Half-Life fans firsthand, as I finally finish gaming's greatest trilogy that never was. ► SUPPORT / COMMUNITY 🌎 PATREON (early videos, credits, BTS) = https://www.patreon.com/MrJarhead​​ DISCORD = https://discord.com/invite/gmz4vd7NmP MY SECOND CHANNEL = https://m.youtube.com/@UC8OSh-6jMjQgFvvjVsVdQBQ ► CREDITS 🤝 @Komegatze for the screenshot of Gordon used in the thumbnail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlDAj9GpZmY @crowbcat for the compilation of Gabe Newell interviews: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jt0w9YP_wZ0 Dario Casali interview: https://www.ign.com/articles/valve-explains-why-half-life-2-episode-3-was-never-made @IGN Half-Life Alyx interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0zXkwLs_lo&t=62s @NoclipDocs for the footage of the scrapped Ravenholm game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMygnmB9Zw8&t=367s "Gabe Newell: fun is NOT realism, but reinforcement": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGpFEv1-mAo Hacking meme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nj12LaDvwKA @Team_Hyperborea for allowing me to use footage from their upcoming Half-Life 2 mod "Infinite Finality"!: https://youtu.be/duxrRfsXkOY?si=2k5Ut5SMQdYHzeZa Marc Laidlaw interview on "Epistle 3": https://www.pcgamer.com/i-was-derangedhalf-life-writers-regret-at-publishing-episode-3-story/ Outro song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy61r3Qkm6o ► TIMESTAMPS ⏱️ 0:00 Intro And Background 0:54 Episode 1 7:20 Episode 2 24:36 Where Is Half-Life 3? 31:08 The Ramblings of Marc Laidlaw 35:10 Concluding Thoughts ► PLEASE REMEMBER! 🙇🏻‍♂️ Be respectful towards each other in the comment section, and on other social media.
