Sucks to be Freeman 2 / Half-Life 2 Animation

- Didn't expect this one now did you?
At last, I could finally finish this project of mine. And boy oh boy did this take a long time.
This is my longest animation EVER, and I first used Pivot Animator back in early 2010s! And I'm happy that it is dedicated to Half-Life 2!
Find every skull in the Route Kanal parts!

I believe I'll have to make a few explanations for this video. Reading this may or may not be helpful.
- If you make it to the end, you can see that there is...*drumrolls*...no Episode 1 or 2 like how a majority of people wanted! And while I wish I could also animate those, this project was getting really, really tiresome wayyy since the Black Mesa East part of it. The reason being me having to focus on real life events and my own mental well being. I, however, plan to work on the Episodes as separate projects which I'll try and produce something even better than my other stuff.
- As you can easily tell, this took a long, very long time to make. While there are a bunch of reasons for that (one of them just being me lazy :P) they can all be summarized in me having to focus on real life events again.
- And of course, as always, something *has to* go something wrong in my videos. Apparently some of the sound effects got replaced by others sharing the same name, this might cause some silly little oddities. I dunno if I'll fix them later.
- Finally, will I be more active in the channel after I upload this? Probably not, I plan to focus on myself for a while, while also cooking up smol, teeny tiny animations to post once in a while. I consider uploading videos to YT as a side quest rather than my main objective, at least for the time being. Because of this, I don't bother with it too much. So that may result in me posting once a month or two.
With that out of the way, I hope you'll enjoy this one fellas. I don't expect many of you to give a view, and that's okay. I hope that you'll have fun nonetheless. Thank you for your patience, stay safe y'all.
You Can Take As Much Time As You Want To Focus On Your Mental Health Youve Done Enough For Us
Support, you, we, will
Пазар Иванович? Да ладно?
Alright. Who gave this guy internet access? Not mad just wanna know.
I think you should do "sucks to be Shepard" and "sucks to be Calhoun" someday (when you ever get the energy)
20:08 Gordon's face without speaking already tells you he had ENOUGH.
2:15 i like that cheeky lil free tvs reference
I like that Gordon have flashbacks from hl1, Great job ład.
At this point, despite what his non-fourth-wall admirers/worshippers/haters may think, Freeman's life is basically a linear road of suffering and precariously-sealed (and cursed, in no small part thanks to G-Man) PTSD, despite what other HL-characters might say otherwise in any positive light towards Gordon.
Accounting for the scale of time being different cuz video games, Gordon gets a reasonable amount of intermission time. People talk about how he doesn't eat as though it's cannon that he never eats anything.
I absolutely adore the amount of effort this includes. Wonderful job. I love Gordon getting more and more messed up over time.
Its sub at first sight.
For a second i tought this was uploaded 16 years ago☠️
Edit: great vid btw love that you included beta npc's
what i thought too lol
90/10 THIS IS SO FREAKING ACCURATE VALVE NEEDS TO SEE THIS YOU DID A VERY VERY GOOD JOB ON THIS NO JOKE
This made me realize... It really sucks to be the one Free Man.
Can’t wait for sucks to freeman 2: Episode 1 !
21 Minutes Of Pure Entertainment Amazing Job! And The Part When Gordon Threw A Water Bottle At The Civil Protection Got Me Laughing 😂
Bot
@@FBI_UnusualIncidentsUnitNOT everybody is a bot, BOT.
I don't know how but you absolutely nailed making a stick figure look tired and dazed. Love the little moments. This feels more like a genius animator downgrading to stick figures to save time than a beginner using them because that's all he knows. A few years ago when I was all into half life I would have killed to see this
"IF YOU SEE DC BREEN..... TELL HIM I SAY FUC-" bru💀
i remeber playing it with a mod that replaced that dialogue to instead say IF YOU SEE DR BREEN TELL HIM TO GO KILL HIMSELF wich i found way better

Good job! Now now, can you count all the skulls throughout Route Kanal and find the last easter egg? :>
I was about to comment why there where so many skulls but ok
I found 5 before I lost count.
7:22 Predator (1987) moment.
also, HL:A antlion? 14:52
thank you for not sleeping on the job, my employers will love this
I literally just the first one, and this literally just showed up! This one is 4 times the length of the first but the animation quality is equal if not higher! Awesome job!
Great stuff. I respect your dedication to animation, everything moves nice and smoothly. Also the storytelling here is very good, you showed full spectre of emotions on Freeman just with his eyebrows. Keep it up.
P.S. I appreciated that War of the worlds reference
Thank you so much!
And oh my, you're the first one to notice the WOTW reference, good job!
This is going straight into the hall of fame for HL videos, alongside Ballad of Black Mesa and Half-Life in 60 seconds
12:07 ADOLF WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING THERE!?
Nahh 💀🙋♂️
He join rebels
Everything about this animation is very lovable
edit: the choreography recreated in a 2d animation for specific scenes and also making them sorta more cinematic in a way makes me excited if you ever plan to tackle onto Half Life Alyx combat and combine, even going out of your way to animate stuff unused for a small scene just shows me that you were dedicated, whatever project you plan to animate next whether its half life or not, I fully support ya
12:00 this shows you the horror and graphic side of half life 2 that you don't see or think of when playing the game
and it also shows you Adolf Hitler
when I thought he had perished, he returns with gifts
I adore this old school animation style!
Our benefactors of course never miss the mark when it comes to glorious HL videos.
Just stumbled on this channel and I absolute love it. Gives me old school RUclips vibes - you definitely deserve more subs
Bro is so good at this. Just in time after I came from school. Biggest W.
You really know how to add details on your animations I love it
You have a lot of talent dude!, great job doing this on pivot. Pd: i repeated this like 3 times is so good.
Alternative title : it's everything AROUND freeman that sucks
this gives me early 2000s flash vibes, love it
I'm impressed with your patience and talent in animation, especially with stick nodes
Thank you! But this is Pivot Animator, not SN!
@@combineadvisorwithinternet6040 For me it's almost the same thing
I always loved the way we got introduced to the magnum, just sitting in a tabble with the perfect timming for a metrocop to open the door, best feelling ever
HOLY SHIDT HE MADE ANOTHER ONE, THIS FUNKING AWESOME
That has to be the greatest and most talented animation that I have ever seen!
I like how Gordon in this animation actually shows some emotions (although subtle and in rare instances from time to time) and is not completely stoic all of the time as some people portrayed him in SFMs and animations, very cool!
This was actually amazing!
Thanks
Whole 20 minutes of a great animation
Hey its me again, i found 6 skulls during route canal, one during the introduction of the barnacle, one near the container, one behind barrels when freeman uses the turret, one at the spot where Cps throw barrels at freeman, one where freeman is stacking bricks, and i think one is where freeman is taking cover from the hunter chopper.
Good job! Although, there are 2 more you have missed, even a secret 3rd one that I don't count because it's way too unnoticable!
9:58
I would expect anyone to have a mental breakdown not only after fighting through Ravenholm, but spending literally a few hours with Father Grigori
This is amazing, also I love how you snuck in some beta/unused stuff
9:32 my face was the same when grigori started running away and that music started playing
Why was this just recommended now? Real great stuff!
I love when youtube actually recommends me something good
This work shows how amazing would had been dismemberment in HL2 like when you use RPG /grenates or heavy combine artilley on the target
This is a very high effort animation, especially with how long it is. I already struggle to make animations longer than a minute, but this is a decently good length.
Good animation in general :)
Can't wait for:
Sucks to be Freeman 2: Episode One
Sucks to be Freeman 2: Episode Two
Sucks to be Shepard
Sucks to be Calhoun
Sucks to be Cross and Green
Sucks to be Alyx
Sucks to be Chell
Sucks to be Chell 2
Even that everyone can speak Gordon still has the most emotions
I would like to go on record that it was a nice touch add the epu as a officer and the cp with a trench coat it reminds me of the Shock divisions from halflife RP
this really gives me old flash esque vibes and i love it dearly
Gordon did a two thousand yard stare for almost the entire video.
well it’s either be an abused citizen or become a well trained professional that is an outlaw.
Man, i feel bad for freeman even more after watching this ngl... also hsppy 20th anniversary!
Been a fan of your content since 2021, Just what I needed to make my day better, good job cant wait for ep1 and 2! (And maybe epistle 3?)
this is great
also i just realized that the URL for this video has *ow0* in it
Well atleast he’s a “free man”!
I love this so much
great work! I hope seeing the episodic releases also.
you are severely underrated!!! Keep up the amazing work!
9:57 Made me feel sad for sm reason
How do you not have 100k? this content is too underrated
Dude this is FUCKIN AWSOME also intense idk why but when gordon gets all damaged i just feel sad.
This is like paper half life
i finished half life 2 in the same day after watching this video
I can see in gordon eyes that he his tired of fighting combine and headcrabs all day
Im find it great that you include in 2:28 and 4:12 how Gordon Probably feels when he sees these creatures in his perspective black mesa was a few hours ago while for world its been 20 years barely and creators put this details in these fan made animations or etc.
6:00 you when you first time play on controler be like
This looks amazing, great work!
12:09 There was an Austrian artist with an mp40 on the top right
I usually name the antlions and on my first playthrough i cried when i saw one that i named die.
A well awaited video!
Who wins?
Trained Overwatch Troops.(with guns)
Or
Funni little nerd in a HEV suit with a crowbar.
This is great good job i love the style
This is really a nice animation. WHY THIS MAN DOES NOT GET MORE VIEWS???
man this is great, this deserve million views
Absolutely amazing
Amazing job! It was fun all the way!
Yea it sucks to be freeman
highly anticipated, my friend
Noticed that guy at 12:09, first thought it was weird because of the gun he was holding, missed the moustache and armband for a solid 3 seconds lolz
hes also sleep deprived for 6 days
love this project, the one and ONLY gripe I has is that you didn't include the combine soldier leaning against the fence at the bridge. Other then that though, damn good job.
Gives Paper Half-Life vibes, very well made video
I can’t for “It sucks to be Freeman2 Ep1”.
7:47 gotta love that war of the worlds reference
you have so much talent, your animatins are incrediable, nice work!
i like how gordon just tanks like a billion rounds of jacketed lead
Gordon already knows that Vortigauntas are neutral. Now way he really wants to shot them.
Bro was cooking with this upload
I like those 7 hour war unique synths
If Half-Life² Cutscenes to be this fast on 2nd play through it would be way nicer imo.
Absulotely spectacular.
Absolutely epic, good job!
gordon is john wick, but mute
Easter eggs spotted:
- beta Elite metrocop
- Free TVs in kleiner's lab
- Beta Bullsquid
- Possible tau cannon SFX in the winston-hit firefight
- HLA Antlion model
7:47 perfectly-executed war of the worlds reference. it's peak
7:48 i love the war of the world reference there🤣
wake and bake mister feetman, wake and bake.
Ain't no way
I instantly clicked on this when I saw it
Amazing animation!
5:42 you shouldve made a part where he checks on the manhacks guy, to check up on him and hes dead with a manhack on him
you can that when the video keeps going freeman look more tired and had enough with the shit his going throw
