I was replaying for old times sake and still wonder what this guy's deal was.
At first I thought all the 'evolution of the species' and science stuff was PR for him wanting personal power but even when Freeman started tearing the house down and Breen had no reason to hide anything, he still kept going on about it.
Was Breen legit crazy and thinking that turning the human race over to a multiverse empire would be a fun science experiment? Maybe the price for joining the Advisor club?
What game is that?
it looks like shit
Fuck off newfag
Half Life 2. 12 years old and it wasn't the best graphics even then.
>Valve took so long with it's game, Breen's VA died.
His deal was basically that humanity stood no chance whatsoever at violently resisting any real force form the combine, what with all of Earth's shit getting rek't in the 7 Hours War that the only chance for any human survival was to grovel and join the Combine willingly.
Course, with rebels fucking up that plan and pissing off the Combine, Breen saw huamnity as about to get fucked hard
Cmon Breen, that suit cost you more than 200
What game had the best graphics in 2004?
World of Warcraft
Yep, done
Breen at the time of HL2 was a villain, who had long ago pretty much totally lost his mind. But the thing of his going nutty is, he continued to do a lot to shield the resistance and Black Mesa East, even as he lost all sight of any possible future for the species. He didn't just do a 180 into the combine ethos (there probably is none, all his posthumanism shit is almost surely his own), he just continually rationalized and compartmentalized (or even dissociated) himself into the shitbag of HL2.
But he was a Hero once. Probably legitimately THE Hero of the story as a whole. And you can just barely see glimpses of that throughout HL2.
This.
Wasn't it him who invited the combine over by rigging that experiment to create the rift?
Probably Doom 3. The designs were chunky but the engine had solid lighting and normal mapping

>Wasn't it him who invited the combine over by rigging that experiment to create the rift?
No that was G-Man.
...
It was G-man who gave the sample but the scientists in HL1 said that the 'administrator' made the specifics of the test.
Could be that they worked together to bring the combine to earth but had different plans for them after that. G-Man certainly isn't that fussed about people dying.
Breen is saving humanity since it got rekt hard. He sees himself as the only person willing to make the hard sacrifices so that all of human kind is swatted down like an annoying mosquito.
And he's right. Earth stands fucking no chance.
Why did the G-Man do that? What's his end game? Who does he work for?
