Freeman and water..

[Numb.erz94]

There is probably already a thread about this.. but

 

what is freeman saying underwater..

i know that, after he fires the rocket and climbs down into the hole left by the alien thingy he does a cannonball and underwater he says "That was awesome"

 

i'm just curious about the other stuff that he says while submerged in the toxic waters of black mesa

[Blightmare]

I don't know. I'd have to go back and listen intently to see if anything is actually said. Aside from the "that was awesome" he said back at the jump, followed by what I can only assume was "UH HUH! uh huh..." stressed as self cheering, I just chalked up to random mumbling to make it sound like he's actually saying something.

[HLPrincess]

The thing is.... only Freeman knows what he's saying then

[Pinkie Pie]

I really would like to know what Freeman is saying in Episode 37 (I THINK 37) where he's swimming upward and he keeps saying something over and over, and it sounds like 'Narmley?' all muffled, but like I said I have no idea.

I know some of what Freeman's mumbling underwater. When he's swimming around earlier in the game (I don't remember which episode) he wonders if he should go left or right at a junction in a pipe. He says "Right? No, left. LEFT!" And then turns right.

 

Or maybe I'm hearing it wrong.

[Pinkie Pie]

I dunno but that's kinda funny.

Correct me on this if I'm wrong. You mean the stuff he says after he says "That was awsome." Before he says "Woah. Radiation. Dead bodies. No." I think I might know if that is what your talking about.

Freeman underwater could be understand only by the pyro.

[Kirkreng]

How ironic.

[scott155]

Can you taste the delicious irony? It tastes like lightning.

[Pinkie Pie]

Seriously, can any shed some light on what Freeman was saying during episode 37? It's from 2:57 to 3:01.

[Scorpia]

sounds like he's saying "i'm drowning? i'm drowning? i'm drowning?" i'm not sure if that's what he's actually saying, but it sounds too close to that. maybe he's not meaning to say anything at all, it's just meant to be unintelligible gibberish. :/

[Pinkie Pie]

I dunno it's been bugging me to death ever since I first saw the episode months ago.

Wait a second ............. If Freeman is THINKING, because it is "freeman's MIND", why we can't listen to what he is "saying" underwater? you can THINK clearly while you are underwater, right?

[Scorpia]

yes, but Ross didn't worry about that little logical inconsistency. besides, it's funnier when Gordon muffles underwater.

[ProHypster]

Or Gorden Freeman's thinking process is fucked up.

[scott155]

Freeman actually explained why he thinks in a muffled voice when he's underwater, he just did it while he was underwater so that you can't understand him.

[Blightmare]

Nice try there, Scotty.

Water on the brain, obviously.

[ProHypster]

Seriously, there is people who think the way they feel in the moment, so if they are being strangled they actually think words in a strangled way...

 

This can be observed in kids who play games and replicate the sound and feeling of the game in real life. (They drown in the game they start holding breath in real life)

 

So, lol if I explained it to you so now his thoughts underwater seem rational and you are at peace, you're welcome.
