FREEMAN'S MIND: EPISODE 10

Well here's the latest episode of FM, the next one won't be too far behind. This episode will probably upset the Half-Life purists out there. I use some cheats because in my vision of Half-Life, I see Gordon as capable of doing a pull-up.

 

And yes, I know I said the previous episode would be the last one before the new website, but I was wrong. I thought things were going well, but all development pretty much stopped after I made that statement, and I can't do the coding on my own. The good news I now have new help on it and progress has resumed on the site (again). I'm pretty serious about getting the site up, which is why I put the new URL in the credits. It will be called "Accursed Farms", and will be the future homepage for all the videos. Nothing is changing production-wise, it will just be easier for me to manage the videos with the new site and will offer more features than the blogspot address. Right now it's unfinished, so you'll only get a front page, but I think it will be up pretty soon. I'm not giving any time estimates since everything seems to go to hell every time I do that. I'll announce as soon as the new site is up.

 

EDIT:

I'm not sure why the latest episode is darker, I thought it was my imagination when editing. I think it might be a mistake I made in the recording. Unfortunately the footage is already done on the next episode, so it will be darker too, but I'll try and make sure the future ones look alright.

yey finaly a new one
this videos RULE!!
nice job, keep on the good work!

[Guest]

That was awesome, though a little too self-referential for my tastes. Just cos fans might be pissed at Freeman doing pull-ups doesn't mean you should sacrifice the realism of the video to have the character explain how he can do one. Besides that it was fantastic.

[Guest]

When I first saw Freeman lifting up into the vent, I thought "I could of done that!?" Anyways, it's good to see the barnacle thing is working out but the quality seems kinda dark on youtube.

[Guest]

Where's the funneh?

Oh well. Nothing wrong with some chit chat.


Not that I don't also enjoy chit that, but now that I think about it, if you're going to take the liberty of stuff like pull ups, I wouldn't hold it against you for skipping portions of game chapters for the sake of skimming off fluff. Maybe you could fake being able to go through one of those doors that are always conveniently locked to do that.


Also, one possibly argument that comes to mind against Gordon doing pullups could be the weight of his suit and equipment. Anyone know how much the HEV suit weighs by chance?

[Guest]

Awesome! I am always very excited for a new FM C:

[Guest]

Wow! The day I finally notice #9 came out, this comes out too.

[Guest]

Awesome proabably my favourite episode!

[Guest]

Great series, I disvovered it yesterday (for me i mean), and have since enjoyed all parts. I have to admit that I never played the game so I just accepted pull-ups. I love how Gordi (as his friends call him (even though he doesnt have any)) explains stuff.

[Guest]

LOL
Funniest one yet!

[Guest]

I don't know how many times I've been rickrolled for this, well, it was worth it Thanks a lot for 10 great FM episodes & happy anniversary. "Never gonna give you..." oh dang x.x

[Guest]

I gathered my siblings around ye olde computer. We enjoyed it. Thanks, The Ross Scott.

[Guest]

Heyy. I have a few notes.

Uh, first of all, its cool he noticed the frag nade at least, but how come he didnt get the shotgun? he had already 3 friggin chances. Freeman's not stupid, i know that. And Ross, are you making this all the way to the end of half life 1? And how about half life 2?

[Guest]

I simply cannot believe that you can still come up with funny material! A bow before you, Mr. Scott! A bow!

[Guest]

Andy: Yeah, it was a little bit heavy-handed to past episodes, that's something I don't plan to do too much of

Anonymous: Smart is not the same as observant. And the answer is maybe, I'll have it in the FAQ on the new site.

[Guest]

Ross, that was an excellent episode. There was humor in it, though some of the viewers didn't quite see it.

And for my part, I rather enjoy watching him bypass all of the shotguns. I know it would make parts of the game easier, but as the character is more of an actor than the player's extension in the video game world in the Series, it wouldn't make sense for him to check every dead end just because there's a colorful box next to a dumpster.

Bravo, and keep 'em coming.

[Guest]

Nice Ross! I enjoyed that video.

Alright dude! A website! FTW!

[Guest]

Yeah, YouTube made the video pretty dark. I never played HL1, but Gordon should definitely grab the shotgun eventually.

[Guest]

Oh, and why "Accursed Farms"?

[Guest]

Nice episode dude i love the grenade bit and the bit on the old man breaking the window. nice job keep it up man
