Weird Half-Life secret shows Gordon Freeman can actually talk, kind of
Half-Life is famous for a lot of things. From the classic Black Mesa labs to the sinister G-Man and always hilarious scientist NPCs, the Valve FPS game remains a staple of the genre, even some 25 years later. But above all, Half-Life is perhaps known for Gordon Freeman, and his principle, mute protagonist gimmick. Since he doesn't talk, it allows the player to put themselves fully into his HEV-suited shoes, and imagine themselves inside the Half-Life world. But if you discover a spooky little secret in Half-Life, it turns out that Gordon Freeman does, in a way, kind of actually speak. Perhaps this is the big character reveal we've all been waiting for ahead of Half-Life 3.
