    It's a shame the cremator got cut again. Ironically, he would have fit ALOT more in HLA than HL2. Cremators could easily fit as Xen Flora Control combine that are sent into the quarantine zone to routinely burn zombies and flora to keep it all in check and away from C17. And it wouldn't break the canon that Alyx kills a cremator and sends its head to Eli. Woulda made for an interesting mini-boss at the very least.

    • @ninboy01
      @ninboy01 4 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      Mr. Cubist
      Could be a combination of things. Cremator gets sidelined as a main-line Combine enemy for one with a long-ranged suppression role. Then the idea of it being a boss was supplanted by a new and unique idea that emphasized a stealth mechanic while still fitting the “Xen Hive” theme. They also likely didn’t include Combine troops from the Xen biome segments just to put a spotlight on the environment and the unique ways you engage with the new creatures, rather than juggling that alongside combat against gun wielding enemies.
      Potentially a number of factors that rendered it conceptually obsolete.

    13:18 Fun fact : During development on a project intended as a potential Half-Life 3, Valve brought back Frank Sheldon to re-scan his face for the Source 2 engine. The developers were very surprised when Sheldon, obviously familiar with the character his face had been used for, showed up to the photoshoot complete with a suit and tie. This project was ultimately canceled due to the Source 2 engine's unfinished state, but the scans were re-used for Half-Life: Alyx, as seen in the image.

However, the writers changed the story plan, so she just became an unknown silhouetted scientist. The model they were original going to use for Hahn went to Olga, the female rebel in the beginning of the game.

    The 'early combine fight' and 'cut AR2' are not from Alyx. They're from the cut minigame 'Shooter' that was set to appear in The Lab, and should be renamed as such, so as to prevent easily avoided misinformation

    18:41 and 21:39 interest me the most. Its the first time I've ever seen gman like that, officially atleast. I wonder what they were planning for gman early on? He also looks far younger at 21:39, no wrinkles and his hair looks more colored than normal.

      Only thing that worries me is Mike’s voice has aged a lot. Just compare his HLA G-Man voice to his HL2 G-Man voice. I guess it could work thematically though because Barney is a guy in his late 40s/early 50s, just like Mike, so it may work better.

    Combine uniforms are inspired by real life uniforms and if you know real life
    Uniforms you can easily see that(pause before you click the link so its easier to see)
    14:12 the one on the right looks like a russian uniform from like 1970-2021
    14:15 left one has pouches probably inspired by german or russian ww2 pouches
    14:22 those 2 on the bottom left have gas mask bags inspired by m17/m40 gas mask bags
    14:36 reminds of the german SS horse riders
    14:45 camo is definitely inspired by german splinter camo from ww2 or some random russian camo (also he has a spas12 )
    14:52 boots remind me of german long boots and coat reminds me of german long coats and gloves remind me of the gloves officers wore and that canister reminds me of the german gas mask canisters
    (No timestamp) combine elite armband is abviously inspired by early ww2 ss uniforms and nazis in films and games
    (No timestamp)the whole “gray with gas masks and masks” is obviously inspired by nazis in films and games
    Lesson: video game bad guys are inspired by generic bad guys from movies and stuff

      Maybe they just couldn’t find a way to fit it in, or it didn’t match the story they were trying to tell? Even HL2 had a lot of stuff cut that we would’ve wanted to see. During the original train ride, you were supposed to see a Gargantua get destroyed by a Combine train. They were also planning to have houndeyes originally.
