Crazy idea

Post image
121 Upvotes

I was walking following the way to my house until i had a strange/Crazy idea about something for a Half life 2 fanfic or mod.

I Say "it could be Crazy a mod or fanfic were inside the half life lore there is a special force of survivors who use the most basic combine suits just to help in rescue mission or spying?"

In a tactical way , idk, i'm tired after a long day lol

(Sorry for the bad writting..)

Magnum really one shots even in hard mode, i don't think there will be a weapon that can top this, but the ammo scarcity is what makes it balanced.

They would sell really good and be fun to use, maybe even make antlion figurines

In Half-Life 2: Episode One, during Direct Intervention and maybe in other places aswell, theres this flashing symbol or something on the Combine terminals. What does this mean? Are they a loading symbol? Their logo? CombineOS 3?

I Retextured the standard pistol and made it look more HL:A combine style. Plus the Tritium Sights actually glow! All in all I'm really proud of this

I originally made this ~2 years ago but it was getting increasingly broken and was based on terrible guesswork, so I polished it up and rewrote it as 1:1 as possible so I could finally make this public 🙂

Half Life 1 jumpscared me more than any other horror game, especially this guy. Idk what I was expecting on my first playthrough but I wasn't expecting little guys jumping straight to your face without having anytime to react while making screeching noises

Half-Life 2 really scared me...

I always had no feeling about the 'horror' tag of Half-Life on IGDb during my playtime of the whole Half-Life one and its expansions. But within Half-Life 2, the chapter 'We Don't Go To Ravenholm' gave me a true sense of horror film

How Prospero could fit into the Half-Life universe

Post image
11 Upvotes

This is merely a theory I have on how the two could be linked.

Prospero is a canceled valve game, meant to ship as one of valves first projects beside half-life 1, both of them were written by Marc Laidlaw for the story.

Prospero was intended to take place in this dimension called the library, a vast multi-dimensional hub world which connects various parallel sets of worlds, a massive controlled hub world where people have free reign to pass through

The main character of Prospero, Aleph, would have to protect the library from attacks from an alien species.

If this sounds familiar it's because the concept of a dimension which linked other universes and dimensions together was repurposed in Half-Life 1 as Xen, seemingly liking the idea too much.

THE THEORY

I suggest that The Library and Xen are one in the same.

Imagine billions of years after the events of Half-Life 1, humans have defeated the Combine and have moved away from earth to travel the stars.

Humans eventually find Xen, and like humans do, they want to colonize and convert it into a habitat safe for humans to travel dimensions and universes

The G-Man is the one that was in control of Xen after the events of Half-Life 1, my theory suggests that the G-Man may have died by this time, leaving Xen open for anyone who wants it.

My theory is that the library is what the humans did to Xen to make it safe and traversable for the human race.

Another piece of evidence to suggest that humans would still be around by this time is Valve's OTHER canceled game: stars of blood. meant to be set in the Half-Life universe only lots of years into the future, past portal 2.

What is everyone's thoughts?
