  1. I want to make subtitles for this, but as this isn't technically a content video, I'm going to put it somewhat on the back burner for now. I'll work on subtitles for this when I have free time, but it might be a couple weeks before it comes out. Maybe sooner. Who knows*? Beyond that, I'm super excited about the upcoming projects! :D

     

    * Not even the Shadow knows this one.

  2. Please note that downloading all the episodes and watching them offline instead of watching them on Youtube does cut into Ross Scott's source of income.

     

    I've downloaded every video solely for the purposes of making subtitles for them. When I want to watch the videos, I go to his Youtube channel and watch them there. I don't watch my offline copies.

  3. Look, Google, I have nothing against My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, but when I'm looking for pictures of Rainbow Road from Mario Kart: Double Dash, stop giving me pictures of Rainbow Dash!

  4. Inspired by recent events on the forum, here is the "You're just being paranoid" thread, inspired from Episode 28 of Freeman's Mind.

     

    In this thread, you chide the poster above you for something (anything), followed by, well, y'know.

     

    And go!

     

    Edit: Originally this post was first in a topic that was merged with the original ''Freeman is paranoid.'' thread - Luis

  5. It is possible to fit all of Freeman's Mind onto a single Blu Ray disc with reduced definition, or higher definition with multiple discs. The biggest problem, I see, is that physical distribution of such things is probably illegal due to the fact that it is essentially just a play through of Half-Life with commentary. Valve might take issue with this.

  6. My absolute favorite moment, and line in the whole series is in Episode 14. After remarking about the elevator going down to the first tram car, he sees a houndeye. He says to the houndeye, "Don't look at me." Those four words sum up all that is great, in my opinion, about Freeman's Mind. Followed closely thereafter by his yelling at the houndeyes ("You're a bunch of Mexican jumping beans!" WRT the physics in the game).

  7. Didn't the destruction of Nihilanth cause the portal storms, not the Resonance Cascade? I thought that the Resonance Cascade just opened a doorway from Xen to Earth (and potentially vice versa, if the view from inside the Test Chamber during the Cascade is still valid afterwards--or if the vorts that drop in the Test Chamber don't teleport elsewhere).

     

    My vision of the events immediately following the destruction of Nihilanth is that Gordon is put into stasis by the G-Man, the destruction causes shockwaves to spread out over Xen and the Resonance Cascade tear causes the first portal storm spreads over the Earth. This causes a rebound effect as the shockwaves re-enters Xen, or possibly other worlds, causing regular portal storms to cover the Earth. This activity alerts the Combine to our existence. The portal storms, in my mind, cause untold devastation in "the first days" (see beginning of Episode 2) and the Combine are ripe to take over. Seven hours later, the war is over. The Combine crash Citadels into the Earth (they're welcomed because they stop the portal storms--until Gordon destroys it) and now "crime is at its lowest in recorded history. It's a total U-turn."
