Aside from gender, race, backstory, abilities, age, or anything phsyical
can you tell me the difference between Rey and Gordon Freeman.
(I said i'd make a thread after seeing the movie but, it will be a while before I can and I assume she acts the same as the in TFA due to people telling me)
>Rey is about as good as silent protagonist from a videogame
Whoa
There are actually somewhat plausible explanations for the reasons why Gordon Freeman can do what he does. SW cant even explain how a girl who grew up on a desert planet knows how to swim
Gordon Freeman went to school. Unless Black Mesa fires "junkers" to perform their science experiments.
Gordon has literally God helping him to succeed
Gordon Freeman is a genius and has the hev suit
the entire point though is that he isn't really even a character, he's just an extention of the player
>soyboys are having to compare MaRey Sue to a silent video game protagonist from a decade ago just to make her look good
Uhhh... Gordon underwent a rigorous education in one of the world’s best institutions of higher learning in a tremendously difficult subject?
Gordon freeman was a man with a PHD that was given combat training so he could go into hostile alien environments. He's also equipped with the best armor money can buy. On top of that, he has an alien god watching over him.
thats backstory
thats abilities
backstory
abilities
Gordon Freeman is you.
...
>tell me how these two characters are different
>but you're not allowed to name anything that makes them different
>G-man magic
>silent protagonist
>super suit
If rey didn't talk and it was all FP things mightve been more interesting at least
Gordon has the logical mind of a scientist. Rey is spiritual.
What did I win?
compare leia to rey using same criteria:
leia is: hardy, short tempered, militeristic, kind of a bitch, formal, rightious.
Freeman literally has no personality because he is purposefully designed as a blank slate for the player to project themselves as
Gordon Freeman knows how to shut his mouth.
I know, thats why I didn't compare leia and Gordon
He's not blank enough that we wouldn't know he's a physicist from which we can deduce he thinks like a scientist
I did give the answer to you, but technically thats abilities.
Gordon is smart but lazy. He's a quick thinker and crafty but also easily manipulated and somewhat clumsy.
>never played half-life
he was in a shit game, whereas she was in a shit movie
and even though both were shit there are armies of people defending them as the greatest things ever
>Has a PHD
>he's consistently late for work
>Was able to use the vents to get into Kliener's office when he locked himself out
>Blew up that one guys casserole by accident
>Was being led on by gman for the sole purpose of blowing up a time traveling device
Come on man
half of these are either contradicted by the game itself or determinant by the player
OP stop
that wasn't me
All of those (besides the last) were confirmed by in-game dialogue.
>>Has a PHD
alright
>>he's consistently late for work
it was one day
>>Was able to use the vents to get into Kliener's office when he locked himself out
it was his first day
>>Blew up that one guys casserole by accident
Magnusson said this I think so alright
>>Was being led on by gman for the sole purpose of blowing up a time traveling device
fan fiction isn't canon
>Come on man
no
Rey is more like Chell
>took over as new protagonist of the HL universe
>dealt with mansplanning from Wheatley and Cave Johnson
>betrayed by evil soyboy, got rid of him and put a woman back in charge, as it should be
>is technically retarded which gives her retard strength and plot armour
Rey is attractive.
>aside from everything
fuck off
can't do it,
you can even do it with prequel characters,
qui qon jin, patient, has faith in anikin
mace windu, lawfull, authoritative
this
>They are exactly the same if you ignore what makes them different
characterisation, do I have to bring up the leia example again.
>First is the protagonist of a movie
>Whom is intended to be empathize with as well as dramatize action through having a fully characterized person
>Second is explicitly used as a blank-slate for the player and essentially no more.
>His characteristics exist to serve no purpose other than justifying the player being in the setting of the story.
This tbqh.
Gordon is special and able to do the things he does because he is the player, Rey is special and can do the things she can do for no real reason.
Yeah, and the gravity gun is a ripoff of the force too
Post YFW they cast Neal Brennan as Gordan Freeman
>smart
he's as smart as the player. PhD is exposition and there are many ways dumb people get PhDs
>lazy
he's as lazy as the player
>quick thinker and crafty
ditto
>easily manipulated
by gman? I don't think you can call that easily or really manipulated for the worse
>clumsy
??
You just never played hl2 bro. Played 10 mins of 1 and read a synopsis on wiki
here, faggot this is why your question is fundamentally retarded
Gordon is God, you retard. Did you miss the whole background imagery and themes to HL 1 & 2 didn't you? Probably thought it was just about wandering along a corridor shooting stuff...
>implying Rey isn't God
you probably thought it was just about lifting rocks and swining lightsabres around..
Rey has a charaterization and Freeman doesn't.
What kind of stupid question is this? Gordon isn't characterized by anything. He is literally whatever you project onto him. When I was playing HL and HL2 I imagined Gordon was just some gobshit that was oblivious to the complexity and danger of the situation around him and was just looking for a goddamned cup of coffee.
How about you go kill yourself you insincere son of a bitch.
This is tile porn lvl autism
autism: the post
Gordon has a power suit that comes with a life time supply of morphine, so there's that
>Without using adjectives compare these two
Gordon is a videogame character that I control while Rey is a character written by some Jew that I observe.
Rey doesn't give up, while freeman does. The g-man literally cucks freeman
(connection error)
be glad for my perseverance Sup Forums
I'm not a robot
If they are essentially the same character then it'll be much easier for JJ to make the Half Life movie.
