I've always liked that Breen says "It's SAFER here." - not "it's safe here." Breen knew. He's the hero of the story, mercilessly killed by the mad scientist Gordon Freeman.
@David Jones Breen was doing all he could to keep humanity alive, he wasn't a puppet but merely a buffer between humans and the Combine to prevent their total annihilation. He recognized that slavery and being ruled by the Combine was the lesser of two evils if their only other option was to be destroyed, and he did truly care for humanity.
@David Jones I think the evidence is shown in his behavior as City 17 goes deeper into war. "Now is the time to redeem yourselves, you've plunged humanity into freefall" or his other quotes where he basically pleads for Gordon or the Citizens to reconsider their course of actions
@@burd2710 This is an interesting subject - He might indeed have had good intentions by keeping the human race alive.. but throughout Breen's speech when the wars 'goes deeper', it's also clear that he is in fact more afraid what will happen to himself. I believe Breen is manipulated by fear at this point; not just for the destruction of his race, but the torture the rebels will pull him through if he gets caught of guard. Is it truly better to live in pain/slavery, than be dead? To keep the humans alive is truly a selfish act from Breen. To summon up - he is loved by no one;(human nor combine) and his actions is purely based on fear.
@@DistilledGuava I don't know that he feared just for himself, he worked very hard to make the combines living conditions for humans somewhat livable, and he realized and accepted the importance of his role as representative of Humanity. This is why Valve needs to make games again. Their writers and story designers are so talented and thourough that their characters are still talked about 14 years later

All of these tracks are excellent, but we need a track like LG Orbifold or Sector Sweep. We need something that get's your adrenaline pumping. But that's just me.
agree as well, but these tracks work for a moody, depressive and isolated feel that you will certainly have in antarctica... before you find the borealis when shit goes down that is...
No me aguanto quiero que salga ya "YA" todos lo esperamos con hacías, mucha suerte con el proyecto, esperemos que siga a delante y que cuando salga sea uno de los mejores juegos saludos
I've been waiting for this to be uploaded for a while, this and Threatening Domain are the best. The siren is a nice touch, Kelly Bailey often did incorporate sound effects of what was currently going on into the corresponding track, like Crawl Yard or Steam in the Pipes.
alright my idea epistle 3 mentions them finding the borealis in the middle of a field surrounded by a base but the art and the transmission show it imbedded into the side of an ice shelf what if gordon and alyx travel through some caves and come across the borealis while it's in the ice shelf alyx gets confused because they are not at the coordinates that they were given and is worried because the combine are getting ready to board the ship so gordon and alyx fight them off in hopes of getting on the borealis but just as their about to it teleports away alyx believes that the combine may have already gotten on and teleported it to the combine base that the coordinates lead next to but when they get there the borealis isn't there and they begin seeing it appear at the coordinates that they were given and then realize that the combine didn't teleport it but that it actually teleported itself and the coordinates are for where it would appear next this allows for a combination of both the concept art and epistle 3 and helps lengthen the game provide an interesting moment provides a sense of false hope and gives this song a great spot with the siren like sounds at 1:35 being played after it teleports out of the ice shelf and causes the entire area to become unstable resulting in the sirens playing to alert everyone to evacuate it would be great to run from a collapsing ice shelf while fighting combine soldiers and dodging debris
que se tomen todo el tiempo que necesiten para hacer el juego lo mejor que puedan. No hay presión para terminarlo. No es como si ya hubiesen pasado mas de 10 años desde el ultimo half life jajj, podemos aguantar todavía
The music is definitely up to par. but there's still that part of me that wants to go to a gaming convention and hear through an abrupt silence "wake up mr. Freeman"
Like, could you imagine the freaking hysteria that would break out if the lights all dimmed at the event just long enough and that voice over the intercom saying those words? It would be the best way ever to tease about HL3

Breen you liar, Twenty minutes in and I'm being shot at.
What's a "Tweeter"?

So, "Safer" is having an entire army of metro-police and synths personally hunting you down.

I´m so hyped for the game
Gonna have to wait a lil bit buddy
@@stranger6445 yea, i know but when it will come it will be awesome
I think this matches the feel of a Half Life 2 game very well. Extremely excited for this project.
Oh yeah, I'm feeling it. That feeling you get from Half-Life OSTs. You know the one.
I'm just waiting for a track called "About that beer i owed ya"
If barney gives gordon beer in this game my life is complete. They can just end the game there tbh it can't get better that
All of these tracks are excellent, but we need a track like LG Orbifold or Sector Sweep. We need something that get's your adrenaline pumping. But that's just me.
Yes. Just... Yes.
They already have like 5 action oriented songs, check Soundcloud
Agree!

They only post a minute taste of the overall feel on the RUclips, check out their Soundcloud, it's versatile, spiced up and all things nice!
The soundtrack is just awesome... Can't wait for the game!!! 💪🎶
Наконец то хоть какое-то то движение,трек зачётный,верим, надеемся, ждём!

Omg please dont stop this Project
I can't wait!!! Thank you guys for your hard work!!!
This sounds like a place where it should take place In portal, portal and hl2 ARE in the same universe.
Thank You for making this possible.
brings back those good memories, great work project borealis
that music sounds really cool i really enjoy listening this
Welcome to OST |7. It's safer here!
Sounds so good!!
The coolest track, guys! Keep it up!
Amazing!!!! Hope more people see this and the project continues.....
I really like that sounds that alternates left and right every couple of seconds.
I’m in love with the soundtrack
Legendary music!
Wow. So many portal vibes here. Love this
Good i love it, it seems a lot to the city 17's theme, you are awesome!
I can't thank you guys enough for this. Love from Bangladesh. ❤️❤️
I wish you success in the making of this game guys, you have my support.
I love it. Can't wait for more news.
Looks fab!
Как же классно! Когда уже выйдет сама игра... Жду, верю, надеюсь.)

This is too good
This is really good

Amazing!
Wow que buen soundtrack me muero de probar el juego con esa musica BUEN TRABAJO PROJECTO BOREALIS SIGUE ASI!
Lovely.
I really like this one here
Has a nice portal feeling to it
Это
Просто
Ох$енно
a mix between Black mesa and Aperture science music. looking great already
i've been waiting for months, can't wait to see update 5
No comment, beatiful
...Well, That is true.
Yeah, *beatiful*
This means (I mean you are wearing the soundtracks) that there is little left for us to see the full game. support and greetings you are the best
Masterpiece.
I am just here to say that the siren in this track is amazing.
I FEEL HALF LIFE HERE
Yay a song for my birthday :D
Very nice!
Good work i like this sound
amazing
Perfect
i immediately thought of Portal when the song started playing. definitely has a portal vibe but can't complain about that. good stuff.
Welcome to borealis.
A project of aperture science.
EPIC.
awesome!!!!
Good!
Seguire esperando 10 años mas
The Path Integral and It's Safer Here should be mixed together. Great tune both!
Once again, listening to this music, I suddenly came to the conclusion that it would be very suitable for the final credits.
Que el juego salga yaaaa
No puedo esperar
Very good
wenn you run away from some elite metrocops with insta stunsticks without any weapons on you
If I only had money or talent, I would do anything to help you guys ;n;. But for now I'll just support you from here :3 YOU CAN DO IT!!!
I love the elements of portal 2 present here!
i cant wait
Im love this music ost for hl3
Oh man!Just Love it!
In the game?Holy shit can't say now!
Sounds like ost of original hl. Awesome!
Oh wow !
Круто так держать мужики!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Lit!
I like it
WHOA NIIICE
Welcome to City 17...Its "safer" here...
Nice.
Eso fue algo increible esa música
❤️❤️❤️❤️ Los amo!!!!
I dig it
Great
alright my idea
epistle 3 mentions them finding the borealis in the middle of a field surrounded by a base but the art and the transmission show it imbedded into the side of an ice shelf
what if gordon and alyx travel through some caves and come across the borealis while it's in the ice shelf
alyx gets confused because they are not at the coordinates that they were given and is worried because the combine are getting ready to board the ship
so gordon and alyx fight them off in hopes of getting on the borealis
but just as their about to
it teleports away
alyx believes that the combine may have already gotten on and teleported it to the combine base that the coordinates lead next to
but when they get there
the borealis isn't there
and they begin seeing it appear at the coordinates that they were given and then realize that the combine didn't teleport it but that it actually teleported itself
and the coordinates are for where it would appear next
this allows for a combination of both the concept art and epistle 3
and helps lengthen the game
provide an interesting moment
provides a sense of false hope
and gives this song a great spot
with the siren like sounds at 1:35 being played after it teleports out of the ice shelf and causes the entire area to become unstable
resulting in the sirens playing to alert everyone to evacuate
it would be great to run from a collapsing ice shelf while fighting combine soldiers and dodging debris
❤
NOICE!
Ya quiero ver un trailer, aunque sea un pequeñito avance
