    I had an idea a while back; that it was Adrian Shepard rather than Gordon Freeman that G-Man wanted to destroy Nihilanth in HL1. While G-Man looks curiously towards Freeman a few times but doesn't really interfere with him, he seems to more actively direct Shepard's progress: freeing him from the room of toxic waste, blocking his departure on the V-22 Osprey, reactivating the bomb he'd only just deactivated. He even appears in the 'Boot Camp' training segment. It seems like Shepard and his unit were a more controlled factor to G-Man while Freeman was more a random element. And I'm sure G-Man was intrigued that Freeman defied his expectations and became the one to destroy Nihilanth instead.

    When bashing the crowbar around like a caveman in game, it's easy to forget that Gordon is canonically a scientific genius with the same unauthoritative caliber of education as Kliner or Eli. I always wondered what deeper questions he was asking about the new world he found himself in; the alien life, combine tech, the overall impactions for the multiverse... But more importantly, just how did he get so good at killing things?
    Side theory: After being hired by the Gman, Gordan no longer needs sleep. He's awake for nearly a week by Episode 2.

    It's so wild to think that Gordon just went to work one morning and participated in an accident that sent him and the rest of humanity down a path of unforeseen consequences. Like he doesn't get a moment of rest, during one moment he's fighting for his life in black mesa, killing an alien overlord and getting recruited by an interdimensional creepy guy in a suit and a couple of seconds later he gets teleported onto a train which leads to him becoming the posterchild of humanities resistance against a oppresive alien empire.

      Imo he's not sociopathic, he's so tired and so thoroughly traumatized by the end of hl series that he's just grown numb to practically everything. Finding out that the alien race you were killing en masse for nearly 2 days straight were actually enslaved and forced to fight you would break most people, even though justifiably in self defense.

    I always thought Gordon was an anomaly. He never speaks, but his somewhat close relationship with the people around him (like the black mesa folks) makes me think he used to be able to speak. Or maybe he just appeared one day and all the people around him were given false memories.

    I never heard of Gordon's past in Innsbruck, Austria. It really opens up the world of Half Life to other research and maybe resistance centers around the world. I really like that Half Life 2 was set in eastern Europe I think, because of the Combine relocating everybody as a strategy to control the population. A lot of games and movies come from the USA and also take place there, so it's always a welcome change of scenery to have stories take place somewhere else.

    Oh, and i fucking forgot, seeing his lifelong friend die in front of him in a horrific manner (tho afterwards it was "fixed" by Alyx)
    Poor dude had it rough

    So far watching this, one critique. The crowbar Barney gives Gordon isn't the same exact crowbar Gordon used back in half life 1. He is established to be a jokester ("About that beer I owed you!" and "Pulling that switch? Your MIT is really paying off!") so it makes more sense that he heard that Gordon used a crowbar back in Black Mesa and decided to give one to him as a joke/callback.

    Gordon Freeman is what one would call a Wildcard. the G-Man never really intended to use Gordon for anything specific, but rather Adrian Shepard. but because Gordon seemed to get out on top, no matter the odds, he took him into stasis, in case he could use his Talent once more. and in Half-Life 2, that is exactly what happened. everyone knew of Gordon Freeman, and what he did. he was a Symbol of hope long before he returned even, and the G-Man knew he could use this to his advantage to steer the course of history where he wanted it to go. but during it all, when the Vortigaunts found him and rescued him from the G-Man, they also severed the link between them that Gordon gained when he walked into the Green Portal after the Black Mesa Incident, thus rendering him unable to take Gordon back into stasis to use him further. that is why Alyx was taken instead, as she looked up to Gordon, and she learned a LOT both because of him and from him as well, and the G-Man could use this. whenever the G-Man gives you an offer, the one that you can accept to work for him ALWAYS creates a direct connection between them, which means that the G-Man can and will interfere and steer you where ever he pleases or needs.
    Adrian Shepard is the one person we have yet to see anything of after the Black Mesa Incident, but i think he is going to play a MAJOR role in Half-Life 3 once it rolls out. either that, or he will be in a game of his own that leads into Half-Life 3, setting his role there in stone. or rather, setting it in Code haha!

    Thinking about it the G-Mans "threat" to teleport Gordon into an unwinnable fight just meant back to Black Mesa, he could have just killed or stranded Gordon or even just left him to die in the aftermath of the Nihlaths death. There was no real reason to just teleport him to a fight he couldn't win, he could have just have threatened to kill him or strand him where he was. During the intro to HL2 he told Gordon "all the effort in the world could not have made a difference" in the events on Earth during his absence, perhaps his threat actually just meant he would simply send him back to Earth where he could not have changed the outcome as it was unwinnable and accepting his offer simply meant returning him to a point in time he could change the outcome.

    I think something worth noting about GF, something that occurred to me while replaying BM recently….Freeman possessed a nearly psychopathic character trait. I mean this seriously. His position at BM rested entirely on a willingness to experiment with tech that was potentially catastrophic if misused or abused, and once it was, he quickly and most effectively, began to kill without second thought or remorse. The scientific imperative switched from experimentation (ie dissecting small animals in your parents basement) to homicidal survival, which involved killing everyone and everything that got in his way. I think there’s an interesting case to be made that GF might very well have been the right Predator in the wrong place.

      That's true, it's most likely why Gman saw his potential and made everything possible so that things would play out in a way that would benefit him and his employers as well as hire him for his services due to his latent talent. Although we can't forget Gordon seems to be really fond of his friends and co-workers at Black Mesa since he does save many and becomes a hero to many, it's obvious he's not a complete murderous killing machine. He's got a perfect balance.

    Its also strange to think how the events of decades take place over just a few days to Freeman. Everyone has been fighting for decades while Freeman was on the way to work just a few days ago expecting another normal work day. Has to be kind of jarring.

      Not to mention that he freed earth from the combines grasp in Just a week and 2 days (since you first arrived at the train station all the way to Nova prospekt 2 days had just passed, and then when you get back at city 17 only a week has passed, and assuming Gordon while in stasis was unconscious, for him he entered the portal and then he woke up immediately to see that it has passed a freaking decade in just a couple of seconds for him. My lad must be having an internal breakdown after seeing the combine for the first time

    Suggestion video > During the invasion of the Black Mesa there where many who took arms trying to hold out any reinforcements to defend their home and workplace . Freeman is very well known that contributed to the Freedom and the Resistance of humanity alongside Isac Kleiiner Judith Mossman doctor Magnason and Doctor Eli Vance . However there where others just as important . What happened to them ? Here we will explore behind the Lore of Doctor Cross Doctor Green Doctor Keller and Doctor Rosenberg

    Amazing video! I knew absolutely nothing about half life (minus a few meme mod videos I've seen) and this really boosted my interest! I'm so glad this was in my recommendations.
    I really love how Gordon isn't some government trained soldier or super powered individual,
    just a man
    Who was late for work
    With a suit
    And a crowbar
    He really deserves that beer 🍺
    But then again 🤔 he did turn on the microwave......
