they always were, there still human, they have emotion when a sopdier dies or they kill another. and when they fall back you can sense their fear. there robot-human but there more human than combine
God its fucking genius that the combine's suits make a loud beep when they die so they know if some shit is up. Its the little details in this universe that make it feel so vibrant and real
@@peanutbutter1180 You jest, but that's entirely likely. He's probably apologizing to whatever poor sod he's leaving behind to face the Union's wrath.

When you consider that Combine Soldiers have had all of their humanity wiped away this becomes much more terrifying. This is a purposeful tactic to try and gain Alyx' trust.
Half Life Alyx took place BEFORE Half Life 2, not after, so it’s most likely that the Grunts (or all Combine Soldiers in general) still felt human emotions before the events of Half Life 2 and its Episodes where all of the soldiers were made into emotionless killers that can’t feel or express human emotions. That also explains why the voice of the Grunts are so human-like in HLA compared to the more serious tone of voice in HL2. Just my guess.
if you turn up the audio you can actually hear them saying what the subtitles say, which means they actually were trying to talk to you. I feel like they were trying to act nice so Alyx would get tricked and walk-in thinking they were allies but then kill her immediately.
The Combine is probably one of my favorite enemies in any game. They seem so human compared to other enemies, which is shown more so in this game than any other.
@@tenmacinh2152 Not really, there is evidence to suggest that they are basically put through extreme exhaustion and only given “anti-fatigue boosts” to prep them for action. A much more dark tactic is linked to a line the Overwatch AI says to the grunt that kills you in HL2. Something along the lines of “Family Cohesion Assured” Cohesion is another term used to say if someone is alive, as the same AI designates dead soldiers as “non-cohesive.” Basically, the Combine hold the entire families of these grunts as hostage and will kill them if they fail their duties, even if they die. You die as a grunt, your family is going with you.
@@vladislavkotenochkin3589 homie you would be commenting about the cursor on the screen if he hadn’t done anything. how is not covering it up the better option
The personality you give is astounding. The life-like scavenging, trying to listen through the walls, the victory fists upon disarming the mine, and the "no no" with the Combine... It's fun to watch. :D
When I first played through this scene, I was genuinely fooled by those guys. I just walked up to them thinking they were allies in disguise or something. I’m kinda dumb.
I wish I could actually play this but I dont have The space for VR- but I know for a fact I’d be fooled by these guys. Now them being combine is quite obvious but I would be convinced that there would be an option of being able To approach them without a weapon and have them demand your surrender or something, valve games are quite impressive and with modern technology in games such as in GTA where you can get a game over by surrendering To The police, it doesnt seem too far fetched that you could have a showdown with The combine trying To detain you
I was also tricked my first time; I thought they were rebels in disguise because of the emotion in their voice, but one was right next to the door I walked out of and startled me and I shot him fhe face with a shotgun.
I remember when I played this part during my play through hearing the Combine trying to trick me into thinking they were allies was genuinely unsettling. This is still the most immersive video game I’ve ever played in my life. The most immersive form of any media I’ve ever experienced in fact.
I think they were secretly recording people, and among those lines were Resistance members greeting to each other. They then replay it through their radio to trick the members into their traps.
The VA for Alyx really shines in moments like this. Perfectly expresses the hair raising and stomach dropping feeling of dread and unease when you hear the combine saying her name. The way her tone just barely falls out of confidence on “name” communicates that feeling so well of getting spooked but knowing you need keep going despite freaking out on the inside
@@noregrets5258 but there is one thing I think I overlooked when writing this comment, wonder what swear word(s) the combine said while dying on the floor?
I know the combines are evil and are experimenting on humans but i really like their armor, helmets, radio chatter, etc... They are one of the best galactic armies. I like them😁
Well yeah, though they don't have any morality they're still pretty civilised beings, but they are very human. Especially if they CAN BE humans, just brainwashed. They're very interesting indeed
Something I love about watching no commentary gameplay is picking up on what the player is feeling, whether playing a horror game and a scary noise plays so frantic mouse and screen shaking ensues, or a little fist pump to celebrate finishing a hacking minigame :)
I've heard that the Combine troopers aren't as heavily modifed as they are in 2, so the really tragic idea to me is that it might actually be somebody who knows Alex and wants her to join the Combine because they think it's the safest thing to do. Either Alyx kills him, or he survives and eventually gets sent off to Nova Prospekt to get his guts replaced with Combine Tech, and I think either would be heartbreaking.
i like these combine outfit designs alot more than the vanilla ones we see in half life 2, they add alot more detail into their roles in the combine army and their gear shows how well prepared they are to handle the situation at hand.
Fun fact: when a combine unit dies or mc unit their suits tend to beep which alerts other combine to their location, setting them on fire seems to stop these beeps.
I have purposely avoided watching anything of this game so I can play it fresh when I eventually have a system to run it. That said, the sound design here is nuts. I didnt know it was THIS good :0
Combine Metro Police (CPs) are fully human who joined the Combine either willingly or out of despiration to get better treatment. The Combike Grunts (the bois in full white suits) seem to also be fully human or just very lightly altered weither ir be by augmentations or memory-wipe. But they are either not augmentet at all like CPs are very little augmentations. Soldiers and above though have augmentations amd memory-wipes. Which make this do interesting, sad and a bit creepy.

Combine used different units when they occupied Earth. These soldiers you see are just the garrison of Earth. They are mostly regular humans who wants to live in better conditions and eventually end up joining the Combine. So basically if the Combine could open that portal and bring their occupation forces on the planet again, we would be fucked.
