  • "This is the tragedy of one with power such as his; seeing what could have been. Seeing that, be it victory, loss, or stalemate, he will be alone in the end. And that end will be of his making. His fight is to undo this destiny he has created, and he will burn everything to avoid it, if he must. But we've seen how it ends. He is the last. Such is the tragedy of the Freeman Immortal."
    Was listening to this one playlist curated by ‪@daymoon_playlist‬, and got inspired: • 인류 마지막 생존자인 당신의 장례식 - ...

    Gordon Geeman's walk animation is a combination of three different G-Man animations mushed together and edited to be a cohesive whole. Mostly did the trick.

    So from what I can tell, the story is that Freeman, or some version of him, got ahold of Gman's powers and saw what his inevitable fate would be after driving The Combine off earth, eternally resting in the ruins, overtaken by healed nature.

    They held a funeral for him
    All the birds and the bees, the air and the wind, the dirt and the grass
    A somber celebration of both mourning and a final sigh of relief, for he was the last man on Earth

    So, from what I interpret, the Gordon Freeman we see on the HEV suit (the dead one) is probably none other than the Gordon Freeman from Epistle 3. After being left behind by the G-Man in favor of Alyx, and saved in the last moment by the Vortigaunts from his impending doom aboard the Borealis, Gordon was sent to a far away shore, away from everything and everyone. And, from what I can see, it wasn't only in terms of space, but also, in time, probably due to the Borealis' time-and-space-shifting properties. After the ending, Gordon would have been transported thousands, even millions of years away from where he was, on a desolated Earth, where no other human remained, cursed to walk miles upon miles on an empty world, where the only truly alive thing was him. Left alone, he was left to wither away, only to be slowly forgotten by time, with the only thing that remained of him being the armor that had sustained his injuries, the suit that not only allowed him to survive through countless hardships, but also the last connection he had to his past: the last connection with Black Mesa, with the resistance, and with his friends, was now reduced to a shell, a coffin for his body.
    But, what is the other Gordon we see, looking at his own lifeless body? My theory is that it is another Gordon, from another faraway reality. A reality where thing turned out different, where maybe someone took other choices in their career through existance. Maybe this Gordon was curious about what other fate would he had have if things had continued the way they were originally supposed to. That, we cannot fully know, for his intentions and the knowledge we have about him still lie unknown and ungraspable.
    Post Ramble: I love how this kind of images can make someone, like myself, think of a whole interpretation from such a simple yet strinking couple of frames. Great work!

  • @JamesTobiasStewart

    If the G-Gordon is indeed the one from 'Someone Else' then a part of me honestly thinks the corpse is luckier in a way.
    That Gordon died surrounded by a world that is now healing itself. A world that is no longer being stripped of every resource it has by the Combine. A world where he is no longer needed and where he can finally rest. Perhaps he was indeed the last man on Earth, but the planet he fought to save will go on. It has survived mass extinctions before.
    G-Gordon meanwhile has gained immense power, but at the cost of his soul, as that very power twists him into something with only a very vague resemblance to what he once was.
    That said, he shows less scorn to this alternative than he did the HEV wearing Gordon he encounters in 'Someone Else'.
    Regardless, a beautiful image that provokes so much speculation and thought. Excellent job!

    • @Sepko
      @Sepko  Год назад +14

      In my head, this is early on in his “career”, still under the employment of the G-Man and such. This off-the-books trip to see what he potentially could have been is the turning point to his resentment of his “employment” and his alternate selves.

    Like a lot of comments, I teared up a little bit watching this. The beauty of the ambient piece "Lavender" by artist Foxwood really helping to sell the image you're portraying, alongside the soundscape work interlaced between.
    I have had a bit of fun imagining some of your Freeman Immortal series ending with a fading in and out Lambda symbol, as if to tease a game we may or may not see in our lifetimes...
    God I love the Half-Life series so fucking much. Thank you for blessing us with your creativity.

    I feel like half life has an incredibly nihilistic setting, (and i don't mean the Orwellian aspects, but something far far more existential) and yet its the most uplifting setting by far. The combine are for all intents and purposes the physical manifestation of the idea of what the universe is: cold, uncaring, vast and forever expanding. There is absolutely no reason to even think that humanity can win this war, and yet humanity refuses to bow down, even against the impossible odds, they keep on fighting for their freedom, and that gets us to freeman, a man whos life changed in a single day from an average man with above average intelligence to a freedom fighter who had no choice whatsoever. I'd like to think this freeman, after all the fighting and the events of epistle 3 ,finally lets himself die after refusing to do so for weeks (from his perspective), allowing life on the planet flourish for however many years or millennia before the combine inevitably come back again.
