This video is an off shoot of the Half-Life: Blue Shift - Hidden Entity Names and Jokes video which is currently in production. As a sneak preview of that upcoming entry, the entity name of the elevator func_button you press that brings you down to the Power Struggle chapter is "ajsdfkdfjjlscvnxmd". Also, I offer a free heart to whoever can identify the music used for the mockup arcade sound restoration.
It sounds kinda like Duke 3D arcade sound but. A fun fact: The game you see the scientist and Barney play is a cancelled valve project Correction: It's not a cancelled Valve Project in fact it was made by Gearbox Software and later on cancelled
@@usamazahid3882 I mean, that's the line it's in reference to. It's good to throw it out there for people who are unaware, lol. No need to tell them to "shut up." Have a nice day though ;)
"You know, you repeat yourself sometimes." Bold words from an NPC whose sole purpose is to exist for a looping conversation the player isn't even supposed to fully overhear.
plot twist: he's fully aware of the repetition and has given up on trying to warn them, now he just sits there bored, making fun of the dude for "repeating himself"
I wish he wouldn't, these videos are too interesting. I've played Half Life all the way through so many times and yet I still wasn't aware of some things he pointed out in his videos, like the Xen stealth route.
As a kid I used to just sit there and explore as much as possible before triggering the incident/experiment, just soaking up all the atmosphere and ambience, even pretending I was going to work that day in-game at other stations/computers/etc, lol. Roleplaying basically within the game :D
The mockup sound for the arcade machine is pretty good. Fits the overall sound design. It also has what I think was the intended effect: drawing the player's attention to that object that is easily missed otherwise.
@@ManLikeEddy Their combat is terrible as hell, but their voice lines are pretty good. If scientists didn't have such pauses between conversations, then maybe they'd feel more human. Take Black Mesa for example, they feel MUCH more human than HL1
1:49 “Did you submit _your_ status report to the administrator?” When he said that he remembered and telekinetically submitted his status report to the administrator, accidentally destroying the table and chair in the process
I wonder if anyone In Black Mesa has ever fully explored every area in the facility. It looks like it sprawls underground for miles and miles of hallways and rooms. I think even Gordon missed a good chunk of the facility since many parts of it were destroyed or inaccessible after the cascade.
I just love the 90's early 2000's games. the textures. the look and feel. not too realistic it leaves a lot left to the imagination without trying to be photorealistic. love it. miss it, these games will never die.
Anyone else love the aesthetics of Black Mesa? The whole underground laboratory with the tram and all the connecting walkways looks so fun to explore but we're so limited in where we can go. Anyone else want to fund millions of dollars into making a real Black Mesa?
I love these videos. Like you, I always wonder what goes on in places we’re not allowed to go. I use to no clip to these areas and see what is going on. This was my fav tram ride of the series. It really showed the inner workings of blackmesa. I really wish someone would create an actual black Mesa facility prior to alien invasion. An actual Alive and working facility. That Would be amazing.
It depends on how the lines are being played, either scripted or unscripted, but it's usually the animation from one of the parties that delays the response. In this video, the Einstein scientist at 2:00 asks a question to the sitting Luther, but the Luther won't respond until the Einstein walks to his mark and finishes playing his gesturing animation, at which point the game finally registers that Luther is scripted to react.
"You know, you repeat yourself sometimes." I always thought this line originated from _Black Mesa_ ! I had no clue they weren't the ones to come up with it!
The two guys above the tram at the beginning, I think, are debating wether or not to spit over the side. “Are you thinking what I’m thinking?” “Your not going soft on that ethics issue again are you?”
4:50 "Why do we all have to wear these ridiculous ties?" "You know, you repeat yourself sometimes." "Why do we all have to wear these ridiculous ties?" "Stop asking that question." "Why do we all have to wear these ridiculous ties?" "Shut up!"
Hey Marphy! I had a thought yesterday: "Is Blue Shift the blandest out of all Half-Life games, content- and secrets-wise?" I was planning to ask this question in the next video I would see from you -- but you beat me to it. Thanks for the video once again!

I hate it when my tables disappear when I talk to people
Lmfao glad I wasn't the only one to notice this.
but everybody noticed that
Yeah I know it's fucking annoying
That's because player couldn't see that area anymore and table fell out of potentially visible set.
insert \Name\ yeah it gets me a jumpscare anytime it happens...
"why do we all have to wear these ridiculous ties"
Eh forget you, my voice falls on deaf ears. I don't know why i even waste my time on you sheep.
Shut up
Thanks Ross Scott.
"why do we all have to wear these ridiculous ties"
In Black Mesa, it's rather to look fancy at your funeral in case you'll have one
2:09
*Table disappears*
*Recognizes the inexistent table*
"Is anyone else getting hungry?"
He ate the table and yet still hungers
The day that Marphy runs out of Half Life 1 facts will be the day that Half Life 3 will be released
I wish he wouldn't, these videos are too interesting. I've played Half Life all the way through so many times and yet I still wasn't aware of some things he pointed out in his videos, like the Xen stealth route.
Exactly, thank VALVe's care for minor details!
Really? RELEASE MORE VIDEOS WITH HL1 FACTS - STAT!
The day Jesus comes back is the day that Half-Life 3 will be released.
A Cypriot. I never thought I would see. Come to Kyrenia to drink some zivania friend.
He was so hungry he ate table and chair
why the fuck did this make me collapse of laughter
It's these bits at the start of Half-Life games that I love, the atmosphere created by the walking and talking NPCs and setpieces is just glorious.
I just love games with good NPCs

That's such a simple gag but I love it.

"ArEyOuThInKiNgWhAtI'mThInKiNg"
I don't think so.
you arent going soft on that ethics issue again, are you?@@Pancakewafflers
The food court is weird, there's no railing to keep people from falling off.
It probably dissapeared, same as the table and chair.
Thats how they get their.. food..
I’m glad that I’m not the only one to notice that. Black Mesa truly is a one giant death trap.
Well hey at least there is water at the bottom to break their falls

PP UP x01 hahahaha
Fuuuuck man now I want half life assets in the sims
M M M M H !
For a second I thought it would be some unique dialogue, not the same phrases we've heard before. Oh well!
Still, enough to show that you're between real human beings and not just mindless NPCs with no sense of communication.
@@charmyzard Nah, scientists and security guards still feel like robots to me still. HL2 citizens seem like they have more character.

When he said that he remembered and telekinetically submitted his status report to the administrator, accidentally destroying the table and chair in the process
"Did you submit _your_ status report to the administrator?"
*chairs and table vanish *
"I believe so"
I was looking for this comment.

XD
His status report was so bad the administrator decided to permanently delete the table they were sitting at
How tf did u made the comment not have "Read more"?
3:06
Scientist 1: "nyaa hello, it's good to see you"
Scientist 2: "nyaaaa it's good to see you"
Love how the cascade made Rosenberg 20 years younger

Looks like both Black Mesa and the SCP Foundation have problems with the ethics comittee.
DatGameh we most certainly do not

The Devil May Cry game we never got.

Live fast die hard for them tacos
Ay atleast you can just shit the taco's out with no railings blocking you

So that otis slips on it

Oh my God, the table disappeares.
I believe so
Oh my God, GoldSrc had it's own form of culling.
@Justin Urhead fesh pince?
Oh my table, God dissapears
They're like Oblivion conversations.
I saw a headcrab today. Disgusting creatures.
Have you heard of the high administrators?
I believe so
Good day!

be very careful
Oblivion before Oblivion
Can you make a video about how the human NPCs start talking when you bring them close to each other?
You know, you repeat yourself sometimes.
*SCENE LOOPS FROM NOW ON.*
These conversations have the pacing of Oblivion NPC dialogue
Woa you finally found a way to listen into their conversation.
But why do we all have to wear these Ridiculous ties
you wanna know why? it is symbolic. Management wants you to know you are their dog, so you are wearing their lease.
You repeat yourself sometimes
@@dontspikemydrink9382
You don't see me wearing a tie, now do you?
You know why? Because I'm a rebel.
@@noahwilliams8996 no it is because you are iron man jr
I never even noticed there was an arcade machine.
Shea Agnew hey the scientists and guards need something to entertain themselves during their off time
It really needed that sound so it is not missed so easily.
"You know, you repeat yourself sometimes"

Finally was waiting for an upload from you thanks
And looking forward to more content
Black Mesa's main research subject isn't physics, but the psychology of awkward silences

Elder Scroll NPCs in my Half-Life?
It's more likely than you think.
Always glad to see notifications from this channel.
Of all my RUclips subscriptions, this is the one I am most thankful for. Thank you @MarphitimusBlackimus!

Leave it to Marphy to uncover small details like this that I barely acknowledged when playing ;).
"are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
(looks at pit)
"i don't think so"
is it just me that loves the audio quality of speech in half life. Idk why I do.
What bewilders me the most is the quality of that grilled cheese model.
White Scientist: Anyone hungry?
*Table and chairs disappears
Black scientist: Absolutely
I think we all know that he ate the table and chairs.
Right, I see why we weren't meant to hear these in full
Mmmmm
Akward pause
Ill get the leftovers
Awkward pause
Mmmmm
>Restored Feature
>Is just "Greetings."
Start: "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
End: "Do you know that you repeat yourself, right? Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
Best small detail in Half-Life series.
MAN I LIKE YOUR HALF LIFE VIDEOS
4:30 man, the new devil may cry game is intense
You know it's a bad day when your chairs and tables disappear.
Marphy, do you know why there's a few second pause between answers in some of dialogues in HL games? Is it because of scripting?
It depends on how the lines are being played, either scripted or unscripted, but it's usually the animation from one of the parties that delays the response. In this video, the Einstein scientist at 2:00 asks a question to the sitting Luther, but the Luther won't respond until the Einstein walks to his mark and finishes playing his gesturing animation, at which point the game finally registers that Luther is scripted to react.

Wow. This page is a hero to the half life community.
If the accident didn’t happen that day the employees would have bored to death instead , their conversations just kept on looping... 😅
3:26 this room just defines half-life source perfectly. Broken features and shiny ass textures for no reason
it's so weird how it really was just a normal day. scientists eating food, some guy on an arcade machine
man, I love your videos. they are really good to learn about making video games.
we need more cuttingroomfloor stuff like these
As a kid I used to noclip and go listen to these conversations myself the second I hear any murmuring of people talking, lol.
