100 Glitches and Facts about Half-Life 2 that you have a low probability of knowing

FAQ Q: Why reupload??? (for the millionth time) A: When I made the original fact videos I was using my phone's shitty mic, recording and uploading in 720p on a cheap laptop, and in general didn't polish things as much as I could have. I've had plenty of comments about these problems and I couldn't really disagree. I couldn't even run with all the graphics settings on high, when NOT recording. Now I have an actual microphone and record in 1440p 60 fps with much better bitrate. Some lines are re-written to work better. The intense red effect from dying has been reduced to make it easier to see and not give you a headache. Text has been added to places where commands are used so people don't have to ask about that anymore. Certain facts which I thought were not that good have been removed or merged with other facts. Even if my existing viewers aren't interested in these re-recorded videos, new viewers will be. New viewers will be less likely to click off because of the lower quality video, audio, editing, and voicing I simply had to work with/didn't see as a problem back then. Q: Well I don't care, youtubers are all evil greedy capitalist pigs! A: Did you know I can ban you from my comments section in two clicks? Q: Mr. Youtuber! Despite not being familiar with the source code, I disagree with your informed description of how a thing works because I think it actually works like such-and-such. A: No. Q: What does "loading directly into a level" mean? A: Entering the level by using the "map" console command or through the chapter selection screen, and NOT by entering it from another level or by loading a save. The text in the corner shows what command you would enter to go directly to that level. Q: Does this video have anything new? A: Yes

"I couldn't have asked for a finer volunteer" drops RPG on the ground

“Some pickups may change on what you need” Me at Nova Prospekt at 16 health and only getting shotgun ammo out of every crate.

In Kliener's lab, if you pick up something and keep dropping it, Barney will eventually say "you're pissing me off, Gordon!"

Watching G-man get absolutely bodied by the dropship at 1:08:15 was much funnier than it should have been

Not gonna lie, that sequence with the regular physics train collision (15:35) is more interesting than the scripted sequence.

16:04 a more emotional recreation of the Mufasa-Scar scene than the official 3D remake.

Valve making HL2: Trigger_once ❌ Trigger_look ✅

at 1:41 you can see him shoot the rocket launcher at odessa and the fact it was cut off makes it hilarious

15:55 The most dramatic way a buggy can fall.

Watching the buggy hold on for dear life from the railroad bridge, slipping and swinging more and more, only to eventually fall dramatically into the water below was more entertaining than it probably should’ve been.

I never get sick of the “Ah there you are brother! I will send the cart it will be but a moment!” loop. There’s something really funny about two cloned NPCs reset event triggers over and over while wasting the players time.

22:54 "Manhacks fly at G-Man but okay."

1:10:04 The subtitle during that cut was masterfully timed.

The glitch at 1:12:12 with the shadow couch would be super interesting for a spooky themed puzzler, actually.

52:20 lmao grigori turning the cart around on you repeatedly is so funny, like the one is trying to get you in and the other sending you out

1:38 "GUNSHIP!" "Damn!" fires rocket launcher directly into his chest

Gordon holding out a gun for the rebel to take then at the last minute just chucking it at the wall kills me everytime

23:06 Metrocops walking on like they didn't just kill someone that killed many Xen aliens + military units + the Nihilanth AND an interdimensional businessman

16:05 "Long live the king!"
