Who do you think will be killed off & what will happen to the story like if Alyx were to die D0g would get revenge(not Gordon because that would be too Cliche'd), Dr.Vance hmm if he died Alyx would want revenge, If Kliener died then LaMar would want revenge & zombify some one.

Gordon, just cause I'll die a few times while playing through the game.

I choose alyx cause I hate her just as much as Adrian(too overrated) & she needs to die before its too late(she says "I love you" at the end, some thing Cliche'd).

Adrian should just appear out of the endless void G-Man had trapped him in and **** everyone's day up. Including Gordon. THAT is the ultimate Half-Life game.

For some reason i think ether Mossman or Barney. Dunno why. Both are great characters, just have a feeling. Didnt vote tho.

Alyx is killed and then Gordon revenge... for alyx in Heaven? Hell, no cliche! The same thing has been used in almost every movie and drama. And it is proved that it won't work. You are such a rubbish scenarist!

If Kliener died then LaMar would want revenge & zombify some one.

The friggin' Lamarr is not a human. It won't do this thing.



p.s I hate you as much as Adrian. :p You are right, tho. No, I love you.

If Kleiner were in a situation in which he was dying Lamarr would zombify him to avenge his death.

Barney will die. He is Gordon's only true friend (as in, only his friend without any other relationship attached, like mentor, subordinate, fan/worshipper, or love interest), and he's generally considered a "safe" character; people don't think he'll die.

But he'll bite the bullet. He'll die before he ever gets Gordon that beer, and he'll lament about it before he expires.

bbson john

Eli dice. So Gordon can take and own Alyx without an ask.

25-07-2006, 05:34 PM
My guess is Eli will die. We'll see a far darker side of Alyx as a result.

Barney will probably die too, but probably not in these episodes. My guess is that he'll hold out with you up until the big end, then he'll die.

Samon
25-07-2006, 05:42 PM
I'm going for Eli. Mainly because of his role as the resistance figurehead, and his death would allow Alyx to grow even more so than she already has as a character. I can't see Mossman dying, or Kleiner for that matter - come on, you couldn't kill Kleiner. :|

Atomic_Piggy
25-07-2006, 06:58 PM
Eli. It'd be cool to see Alyx's reaction.
Barney's death wouldn't really have a major imapct on the resistance. they would lose a good fighter, but it wouldn't be like Eli dieing.
Gordon? We know the Episodes arne't the end of Half-life, so he shouldn't be an option.
Shepard should though. :P

I thought the end of Half-Life 2 left his state as ambiguous.

I Apologize but I just Cant find any other Breen avatar, If any one knows your welcome to show me.

If Eli where to die, then Alyx where to change as in....."Joining the Dark side" which would be too Cliche, Its Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith all over again Annakin(name's annoying to spell) join's the dark side, Kills Samuel L. Jackson, Kills his Pregnant Wife, Then try's to kill Obi Wan Kanobi, How easily he Became Darth Vader Was very Cheesy & Mediocre hollywood at its best.


If Valve did that to any of the Characters Then I would bang my head against the Keyboard till there's nothing left of my head like that Animated Avatar.

Eli. He gets to push Kleiner in to yet another combine city and this time he doesn't get over. Or not. But he will probably die. Somewhere all people will have to run, and he doesn't have the... equipment to do that really.

25-07-2006, 09:39 PM
If Eli dies, it does not necessarily mean that Alyx will joing the dark side. I reckon Alyx will be hellbent on vengence. She is a fighter, and will probably take out her grief as such, initially anyway.

Wally_Breen
25-07-2006, 09:46 PM

Gordon, just cause I'll die a few times while playing through the game.

:P

Can't refute that reasoning. :laugh:



If I had to choose a real character, then it would have to be Eli for many reasons:

1. His death would be a huge blow to the resistance.

2. Alyx would become more interesting as a result (less cheerful, more dark).

3. It would give a chance for Mossman to assert herself into a position of more power within the resistance.

4. The Mossman/Alyx feud could deepen without Eli there to calm them down.

5. The Vortiguants would likely look towards Kleiner now that Eli is out of the picture, seeing as Kliener would be the last surviving scientific mind of the Black Mesa incident (Gordon wouldn't be as practical as he's always in combat).

6. Barney would have a chance to become a more important figurehead within the resistance and it would give his character more meaning.

7. Any possible return of Breen could benefit greatly from Eli's death since they were former friends at Black Mesa.



Eli's death (if they simply had to kill someone off) would be the best because it would affect every major character in a different way.

Thats right, barney Leaded a Push into the Heart of the City's Citadel, its like Berlin-1945 all over Again. where Adolf Hitler(Breen) Commited Suicide(teleport) in his Bunker Refusing to be a Trophy of J.Stalin, which Ended his "Third Reich" which said that was supposed to last 1000 years, but only lasted 12 years.

BTW it's Anakin, and he doesn't kill Mace Windu (Samuel Jackson), even though he falls, he does survive and continue living undetected from the force according to the novels. That's right, the black guy doesn't really die! I'm sure Eli won't either.

I don’t think so. Barney has a different role. He is the leading man on the streets. And I think he already was the leading man on the streets before Eli was captured.

I don’t think so. Barney has a different role. He is the leading man on the streets. And I think he already was the leading man on the streets before Eli was captured.

He was kind of the scout within the city, seeing as the Vortigaunts weren't allowed in City 17 unless they were shackled (i.e. the janitor Vort in the Train Station). I'd argue that he was just working undercover and doing nothing more.

It wasn't until Eli went missing that Barney took it upon himself to lead the resistance on an assault.

Vass
25-07-2006, 10:58 PM
I'm thinking Mossman, because in stories the friend who is betraying you and comes back in the end to be a good guy is sometimes killed off, e.g. Borimir from Lord of the Rings. Not always though.

I choose Alyx because I miss the HL- Survival/ Horror of the original....not the stupid love story which has been hyped all around the internet.


I believe that alyx says to some one lets just be friends, well I hope she says that to Gordon, she just a Distraction.


sry bout Going off topic but I cant help but say....What is alyx 17-18 & gordon is 40...ughh thats F**kin' DISGUSTING!!!!! but has anyone though that she thinks of Gordon as a favorate Uncle rather than A personal Love Interest. Eli told Alyx when she was young about Gordon Freeman of being thus a Legend, Gordon is just a Childhood hero of alyx nothing more.



P.S nothing would please me more that to see alyx fall 1000 feet to the ground in ep2 & yes I am a sick Bastard....Thanks VALVe :thumbs:


I loved using alyx has a Human shield in ep2, she can take the hits for me, hehe.

Eli does say that Gordon hasn't changed one Iota, he might as well have been frozen in that space G-man kept him in for 20 something years, and Gordon was 27 then. Still about 7 yr.s older than Alyx but less pedo.

I guess it might as well be a Combination of 3 different NPC's.....Eli & Mossman, Eli & Barney, or Mossman & Barney. Either of them of those 3 Combination will die.

Bob_Marley
27-07-2006, 01:40 PM
Alyx wont go, IMO, I think that valve are trying to use our great ally, war movie logic, against us in this case. The fact that we just had an episode devoted to getting to "know" her and become attached screams that she's going to get slotted soon, but something tells me this is a little to obvios.

As for Barney, if he is to go down I think it should be like in the secne from "the wild geese" when they're about to take of in the DC3 and the bloke is running behind it, realises he cant catch up and says "kill me". Think of it, Barney running behind a train or somthing being chased by hunters/headcrabs/whatever and screaming "Kill me Gordon!". MP7 burst. End of episode.

Mind you, that would work even better with Eli doing the running and Alyx forced to do the shooting...

Darkside55
27-07-2006, 01:59 PM
That'd be f'ed up, having to kill Barney. I don't think Alyx would ever kill Eli, no way, not even if he was going to a terrible fate. She just couldn't force herself to do it. But Gordon might...

Man, that'd be a twist I wouldn't see coming, Gordon having to kill one of the main characters.

Alyx doesn't die, at least not at the beginning of the game where it is widely assumed as the timeframe for Alyx's precarious position as shown in the Episode Two trailer.

The one who is annoying is YOU. If you want to fight only, I suggest that you should play Quake 4 or Doom 3. They have wonderful fighting scenes but lack of a concrete storyline. That is quite an old gameplay style. People like you may enjoy it. I really don't appreciate replies like yours, Eber, no matter you are joking or not.

well i know valve wants a happy end they wont let anyone die to my regret. well i think im fine when alyx, mossman ,eli and that administrator die. all those are annoying as hell andreally dont add to the story they just suck so lets get rid of them.

I agree that alyx, Eli, & Mossman should die, But The Administrator Dr. Breen die, hmmm Nah. I quitelike Dr. Breen's Character.

If you don't like Alyx, it doesn't mean that she needs to die. Will you kill someone in real life just because you don't like him? If there is no law, I bet you will. Quite a selfish, egotistic people you guys have been.

personally i think that if any of the characters die it will either be eli, alyx, or perhaps barney...but if they kill off eli then alyx will probably live and vice-versa...i can see barney going down probably in episode 3 where he saves you but ends up sacrificing himself in the process and like darkside said awhile ago making a comment about that beer he owes you with his last breath. oh and i also believe that breen is still alive and he'll come back to get finished off in some manner.

Eli will die. I can almost guarantee it.

By the way, story content does not really distinguish a game like Half-life 2 from one like Doom III or Serious Sam. Half-life 2 has only as much character development as the gameplay and level design will allow as it was created to be a thrilling experience first and foremost. There ARE games that are driven by story content almost exclusively but they are RPGs and Adventure games (Planescape: Torment comes to mind).

If that's the case, then Lamarr will likely go with him.

The thing is I don't think anybody will die, even though I selected Lamarr :)

I don't think Barney would die. In the commentary for Ep1, they mentioned that its really one of the only characters who inject black commedy and satire into a hostile situation, thats the reason they brought him over from HL1. He's too likeable a buddy-like to have him killed before Ep3.

I have doubts that Alyx dies as the trailer is only supposed to mess with our minds.

Eli and Kleiner no doubt survive, basically because they should be developing weapons, or way of combating the combines remaining forces (like was mentioned briefly in one Kleiner-cast)

Judith, being a a double agent originally, seems like the most predictable person to die. But again, I think she is too important now that we know about the artic-project

A bit late here to this topic

But Alyx will not die, Valve are smart enough to foresee every possible prediction, the teaser showing Alyx's possible death is like someone said before, to mess with our heads.

I believe Valve are looking to really strain the gamers emotions like no other game has done before. Since you are like just playing the role of Gordon Freeman, when any person stops playing it (ok, any normal person with a soul) it is YOU has feelings for these characters, or we wouldn't have this widespread discussion about it all over the internet.

Well if i was to predict i would say Eli to die because the impact it will have on the resistance and of course on Alyx, who everyone will know loves her him a lot, i mean come on, he is all she has left in terms of family. That could lead to some extraordinary circumstances with Alyx in terms of reaction and what she will do. Mossman? I will say no because the impact inside the game and on the gamer will be minimal. Alyx? well i know i will be devastated to see her die mainly because of the unique innocence she portrays, and I feel that she plays a too vital role in the game tbh (people who dont like her are either just joking about or are literally gay). Barney would be an interesting option too.

However, like i said, i think valve already know all the possible predictions, and when the final product is made, i think we all may get a massive suprise =D

WTF, I don't like her & I wish for to die, does that mean I am a fag ? Quite wrong my friend, quite wrong. That statement is 100% is without a trace or shadow of a doubt, definatly, Black & White theory......FALSE. You need to get your mind out of the gutter, Pixels do not turn me on. There's nothing 'Attractive' about polygons. Except little 15 year olds, little teenagers.



Believe it or not their are realistic minds out there.

Im not talking about attraction you tard, im talking about her importance to the game. Oh, and for your information, im 17, in college and have a girlfriend, if anyone needs to be more attuned with reality, its you, with all your stupid comments on breen, he is a ****ing dictator, he is meant to be hated, only utter retards would actually like him and have the other characters die!

Shift
16-08-2006, 10:31 PM
Oh and also for your information, one of valve's goals with Alyx was to make the player feel emotion towards because of how real she is portrayed to be. Saying someone is sad for feeling attraction for Alyx is just like saying someone is sad for saying that Angelina Jolie or Keira Knightly is hot after watching a film they were in. You will never meet them in person, only see them through a screen, but since Alyx so well made to be real, im afraid its exactly the same principle, as a lot of people say, its just like watching a movie.

IMO there's a major difference between feeling attraction for something that is 'Real' & something that is not real(like a fictional video game character).



Having attraction for people like Jessica Alba & Angelina Jolie is different that being attracted to something that is just thin air.

Yeah fine its your opinion, but my opinion there is no difference, and to all the mates i know who have played it, there is no difference, to everyone down at PC Gamer, there is no difference, to the majority of the people who have played the game, i can bet they would see no difference. But then again its your opinion, so lets just leave at that, arguing over an internet forum about a game is more pointless than getting in a car only to drive across the street.

Also if Alyx where to say "There's something I've been meaning to tell you....I love you Gordon, I just wanted you to know that." If that where to happen then Id go :rolling: :angry: :x :dozey: :frown: :flame: :sleep: :eek:, All that would give me a heart attack, a Stroke, severe asthma, Vomiting, & cardiac arrest. Also I would go GTA on valve's arse if that happened.

Kleiner dies. Or disappears. You play as him in Portal, and use the portal gun to get back to the resistance. Gordon is then armed with the super portal gravity gun with the ability to fire EP1 hopwires.

I can pretty expect something like that to happen, but i think it will happen in completely different circumstances and it wont quite work out the way it does in films, remember valve know all your predictions and thats why they suprise us all in wierd and wonderful ways!:thumbs:

If Alyx ever said "I love you.. Gordon.." It would be when were all about to die. Or its going to be like..
Gordon: AGAIN?
They are all stuck in a trash compacter and thers no way to get out.
Alyx: If this is our final momennts.. Gordon.. I..."
then Barney opens up the top and says something completely inappropriate.
