#reblog #Gordon Freeman. Bro doesn't even speak i'm goin to jail bro

[shmorp-mcdurgen]

i want to climb seth like a mf ladder just to give him a couple head pats and then jump off

Head pat

#asks are neat #I feel like he'd be very confused

do u get rlly sad when the half-life scientists and barneys die or do i just have attachment issues /hj

I do get a little sad when they die, specifically when I was trying to PREVENT them from dying, but more-so with the barneys rather than the scientists-

#asks are neat #I have. shot scientists before then reloaded saves right after a few times for shits and giggles though #So I dunno if i'm the person you should be asking /LHJ

loving the half lifes stuff! Can he have jaundice

Gordon Freeman is already going through an alien takeover from a different dimension, he doesn't need liver failure to be added onto his growing list of struggles

thoughts on the half-life blue shift and half-life opposing force? both take place in black mesa during the time of half-life 1

I think they’re neat! I’ve only played blue shift so far and I thought it was fine, and I have yet to play opposing force

#asks are neat #I got blue shift cause. I think half life 1 Barney is neat #only to find out it’s typically seen as the WORST extension so- #I dunno. I thought it was fine. not BAD

(Pg. 1)

Stage Two: Resonance Cascade Simulation (RCS)

Section 2: Resonance Cascade Simulation

The Resonance Cascade Simulation (RCS) is a revolutionary advancement in Black Mesa’s incident prevention/preparation technology, where a replica of multiple wings of Black Mesa’s main facility were constructed to give the appearance of the real facility. Here is where the rest of the test will take place, as soon as the simulated Resonance Cascade Catalyst is complete. We hope that this experiment will prepare us in case of a real Resonance Cascade event, and thus can potentially prevent one entirely. 

Dr. Freeman is to be put in the RCS as soon as the Catalyst is complete and he is sufficiently unconscious. It is crucial to place him under anesthesia to not cause alarm as he is moved from the real Black Mesa Facility into the replica. (REMINDER: it is of UTMOST IMPORTANCE that Freeman is to be unaware of the test taking place, as to make this simulation as accurate as possible. Failure to comply with this rule will result in career termination.) It is to be noted that despite the simulated AMS failure being in a controlled environment, there is room for error and potentially even injury in the case of Dr. Freeman being within the chamber as it happens. However we believe the HEV suit will be enough to protect him throughout the process.

To make the RCS even more realistic, we have contained multiple species from multiple expeditions to [CENSORED TEXT] within the testing facility. Though it is to be noted that certain species remain too great of a liability to keep within the same facility as the subject. We hope these specimens will help make the cross-dimensional-travel of anomalies more predictable in the case of a real Resonance Cascade event happening, and more importantly, teaching us how to deal with, and/or dispose of these specimens.

Notes: Freeman is a smart man. Hiding the true nature of this test is for his own good.

Power AMS to 105% to begin simulated AMS failure scenario

INCIDENT LOG: #40

TIME OF INCIDENT: 10:24 AM, December 13th, 1998

CAUSE OF INCIDENT: Technical Malfunction

PERSON(S) INVOLVED IN INCIDENT: Gordon Freeman

INCIDENT TYPE: Workplace Injury/death

DESCRIPTION OF INCIDENT:

At approximately 10:24 AM MST, a malfunction occurred involving the Anti Mass Spectrometer, where a stray beam struck Dr. Gordon Freeman between the lower Thoracic and Lumbar sections of his spinal cord. Due to this area being primarily the HEV’s visible undersuit rather than an armored section, it proved to not be enough to withstand the entirety of the shock. Freeman Suffered near instantaneous lower body paralysis, along with heart failure. Freeman also underwent convulsions, restricting his ability to remove himself from the situation. When the AMS had reached a state of stabilization, allowing personnel to enter the chamber, they found Freeman unresponsive aside from minor erratic muscle spasms. They found that his lower back was severely damaged, along with the HEV undersuit.

Damage to the HEV suit was minimal, though holes caused by the shock needed to be repaired. The protective cover over the Life Support Module was damaged, and unable to be reattached. However, the Life Support Module is still intact and functioning as expected. 

Freeman appears to be healing despite tremendous damage. The HEV suit took most of the hit, allowing Freeman to heal relatively without problem. Due to the HEV’s extraordinary biomatter repair technology, Freeman’s heartbeat has returned, along with stable brain activity and nervous system control, meaning he is no longer paralyzed. (It is to be noted that he awoke during examination, but was quickly put under anesthesia to prevent further pain, any potential alterations to the test results, and any further mental strain from the resurrection.) 

Planned initial Termination was going to be three (3) hours after the RCS had begun, however due to this horrible oversight from the engineers in the Lambda team, the first test had taken place prematurely. However, Freeman appears to have healed completely from this incident. This is promising.

FOLLOW UP ACTION(S):

Monitor possible HEV malfunctions

Monitor Freeman’s physical health and recovery from this incident

Resume test as initially planned without further delay.

trapped in an emotional prison of their own making.

hey shmorp, i dont know if you heard, but alex kister recently made a response to all of the allegations and proved them incorrect. i understand if you still dont want to be involved with TMC anymore, i simply just want to let you know :)

also here are some videos for more information:

https://youtu.be/VY7EumLruJo?si=msMwfDrOSgIHaCj_

https://youtu.be/y02u1Wcv7gw?si=uYHu79_T-dZZQn7T

I've known about the recent developments, and honestly no matter what, I really. don't feel comfortable returning to the TMC community, at least not any time soon.

Honestly the entire situation is just very stressful for me to even think about, so I'd rather just. stay where I am currently rather than return to that series.

#like. I don't really know what else to say about it #but i've already made my decision and thats to. not go back to TMC. #Besides I think i'm happy with the developments i've made on the half life au i'm working on #plus the au turned oc projects like the monster au and HSH especially #So. yeah. this will probably be my final statement on it #Overall the entire situation is awful and I wish everyone effected the best #But i'm not going back to that community. I appreciate the support and the friends i've made due to it. but i'm not going back

Those are some weird lookin dogs, gotta be honest
