All G-Man Speeches (1998 - 2024) 

He isn't on the side of the Combine. The enemy of my enemy and all that.

He’s actually on Freeman’s side but he actually has no concern for freeman’s safety, all he cares about is the fate of humanity

I honestly believe Gman has Gordan's best interests in mind; Gman is just such an unknown variable, and HE also has to obey his bosses, but in the end he just wants Gordan to reach his 'limitless potential'.

My guess is he's on his own team, and uses everyone and everything else just to complete his goals.

@@Alizudo makes me think of Blake from borderlands, who has to key Handsome Jacks orders.

His employers are Valve.

@@KoniginMina and that why Gman looks like Gordon kinda, Everyone knows who is the Freeman but only Valve knows who is the Gman, and as Nihanlanth said The truth.. We will never know The truth...

@@Omega-jg4oq You will never reach the truth

@@gerardonavarro3400 I am impressed you extrapolated a JoJo reference out of this

The writing of all Half-Life games is essentially Lovecraftian. Gman is an unknown entity not just because Valve refuses to tell us, but because the point of Gman is that he's a being so far beyond what humans even realize is possible that Gordon, Eli, and Alyx never actually figure out what the Gman is. Therefore, the player in every Half-Life game likewise never learns what Gman is, either.

He also shows signs of annoyance after being inconvenienced 7:57

@The Bloody Doctor G-Man-ese huh? LOL!

vortigaunt english sounds more natural than gman english

It's not a clone, he's just watching every possible consequence, like Dr. Strange. After that he returns in time back to Alyx to continue the conversation.

He is a four dimensional being. It would be like you puting each of your fingers in 10 seperate 2D universes. You would be simultaneously existing in 10 universes at once.

Yes plz, they need a re education or sent to a off World duties

Feohrad i doubt its aging g-man isn't even human. Its prob just the new graphics.

I mean that happened first so he probably just got disappointed talking to gorden

Actually, it works to his disadvantage. Having somebody who can’t describe G-Man to others or talk back is a dream come true for G-Man.

@@TheAlienGangster 5

Gman(in mind): guess I have to do all the talking again Alyx: What who are you? Gman(in mind): YES FINALLY SOMEONE WHO CAN TALK!

Well, he at least talked to Eli

Doesn't mean he can't do anything againts them. Take JC Denton from Deus Ex for example. His boss and his boss' boss FEAR him.

Power is an important factor but considering what the man knows and how he can apply his skills, he's still dangerous af.

Information wise probably yeah, with their biological technology is far better than combine but since you know some of them still are with the combine he has to deal with them and "extract" information to any of the combine that weilds it

If you read Epistle then you know the kind of power behind him and the Combine.

Gman was able to go behind his employer’s back by saving Alyx during Black Mesa without repercussions. I suppose that he is more powerful than them and only work under them because he can.

That’s brilliant, that actually would make perfect sense

Unfortunately they had to change Eli's voice because his original VA has passed away

SpeedasaurusDex rest his soul, the new voice actor seems pretty good through despite how little we heard him

Yeah no idea why Merle Dandridge got the boot out of this though

@@Myne1001 According to one article I read they wanted Alyx to sound a good bit younger

They couldn’t replace the G-man. Despite his time in the games not being very long, the most he does is just say some cryptic speech for a few minutes and then leaves. Not to mention we don’t even know anything about him other than he’s very powerful. He’s still one of the most iconic characters not just from half life, but in gaming in general. If his voice was off people would know.

Since he is the reason for the Half-Life plot it is fitting.

He keeps the plot in his briefcase

@@DoctorTheo we do not count that thing...

well, we saw him talking to random scientist in Black Mesa

Well maybe he knew that alyx could talk thats why there’s conversation, since gordon couldnt talk he just gave full blown speeches lmfao

@@DoctorTheo hunt down the quicksave

I honestly think the gaming industry took until about 2010 to catch up to where Valve was in 2004 with Half-Life 2. Now Valve has come back in 2020 with Half-Life: Alyx and proven once again that their facial animations absolutely destroy the rest of the gaming industry.

Pikminiman day what you will about Steam, but valve will definitely be recorded as one of the best developers there was. They’re consistently at the cutting edge.

HL2 still looks good today. The engine may be old, but the art direction and scenery is top notch.

Still blows my mind that Half Life 2 released in 2004. The game is aging as fine as wine and with MMoD the game get's a nice touch up.... except for the Alyx defense section in Anti-Citizen One. With Combine improved accuracy and difficulty on hard it's just brutal, beatable yes, but will definitely require a few quick saves. Other than that I can't wait for whatever valve does for Half Life 3. Assuming that it does finally release all things considered. In the meantime, this is where I get off.

what i love about gman is that he is so much not-a-human that he uses human words as aproximations to what the hell he is and his position in all of this In the first game he talks about government property, but he was not working for the gov, he always worked for his superiors I always thought the same as you do, that gman simply uses business terms to make it easy for people to understand him, but it's not even close to what it really is

Overall, g-man is a mysterious character. Not much is known about his origins. Or who is his employers. Either way, I guess we'll just have to wait for the next Half-Life installment to determine who he is and his backgrounds...

@@humanman2358 Not that it's coming anyway, but sometimes it's better for mysteries to go unsolved. To me any answer to this question would prob be unsatisfactory and ruin the games. Look at The Elder Scrolls for another example. They are never going to make it clear what happened to the Dwemer, at least I don't think so. And they shouldn't.

Nerevar007 whats also cool is that, Gordon was supposed to go somewhere else as implied by G-man that his employers needed his services elsewhere, but the Vortigaunts intervened just in time.

Or rather, a Group. *Employers* , not Employer.

My headcanon is that it's like The Board and The Director from Control, G-Man is the "physical" being that does the employer's bidding

Like the Q in Star Trek being a part of the Q Continuum, he is pretty much a God and even him has to answer to the Continuum.

And what's worse: how powerful did the combine have to be to contain him?

@@michaelk9279 Maybe G-Man let himself get caught to bait Alyx.

damn alyx back at it again with the white vance

I believe he's extremely overjoyed since he finally has a subject that's practically been raised in warfare and tense situations. Alyx was able to do everything Gordon could WITHOUT the H.E.V suit, making her more powerful than Gordon. What's even better is that she's much younger than him, making her more obedient and blind to the tasks she could be given. It also could be that him being wrong about a subject at first (he has no idea of her strength when he pulls her from Black Mesa as a child) is something that rarely happens to him and he's glad when it does

Stage 1 emitters activating in.. 1

Its even scarier when you realize that maybe the reason he takes these long pauses and deep breathes as if he had forgotten that he had lungs is because this physical form of G-Man is not what he is accustomed to.

@@BadKarma444 agreed... Its pretty obvious that he is something nonhuman trying to seem human

the final boss in the first Half-Life game said to Freeman "You are man...he's not man." it could imply that Nihilanth is talking about G-Man, G-Man acts so weirdly and creepy and whenever we're in his cutscenes we would be taken to different places and in Half-Life: Alyx, he literally made clones of himself. It is really obvious that G-Man is really not human, he's some sort of Eldritch alien more powerful than the Combine and Nihilanth and even the Advisors. What makes it terrifying is that G-Man clearly stated that he has Employers, there are more of his kind, watching Freeman and Alyx saving Earth from the Combine. A fellow commenter in this video said "I love how half-life: Alyx is just Valve’s very own way of saying “half-life 3 confirmed” which is true, Half-Life 3 just so happened to be confirmed and is probably finally in development

Theory: Alyx freeing the Vortigaunts was what caused the G-Man chose hwr.

It's notable that Alyx and Eli only find out that the Vault holds a person after the Vortigaunts have been freed.

Its actually a miracle they got him back for Alyx, he must be worth a fortune now.

Such a legendary performance and voice actor. I'm sure voice actors of the future will take from this to improve their own performances!

"Who? Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a mask." -- V for Vendetta. Just as G-Man's human appearance may just be a mask. Telling Alyx "who" he is would amount to nothing. So G-Man skips over it entirely and jumps to the "what", as you pointed out. A very mysterious and intelligent being.

In the original script alyx's line called gman a 'what' but gman's speech is the same, but yeah it does make it sound more ominous in the final version.

They can snap the earth

Maybe it's condescendance instead. Maybe he says "employers" knowing that _he_ is their boss in reality. Or maybe he can't really express _his_ vision of what his employers represent to him. Maybe they don't fit our concept of employers, but since there is no word in the English human language to fit what they are to him, he stutters when using the word closest to the concept.

Hes like one of the elder gods, its straight up lovecraft

His employers could be somebody that depends on him, giving him tasks for the means of their collective goal and survival. I guess perhaps they're not necessarily stronger or anything.

I think, personally, that Gman's employer's interests are beyond our understanding. Perhaps they're training "extraordinary" individuals for some otherworldly task, so by proving that a few guys and a girl can defeat an inter-dimensional galaxy-devouring space empire, they may be suitable for whatever the next mission is. It's pretty obvious that Gman wants them to defeat the combine, at least to me. This is why he said "that would be a considerably large nudge, too large" when alyx asked for the combine to "leave earth", he doesn't NOT want them gone, but he wants her to prove that she is more than capable of doing so on her own.

Just like Freeman, Shephard wanted to survive. He had no orders about killing scientists nor Freeman himself either.

Because he is a alien

he is not used to talk with lungs

@Taco_ Kamikaze well, Nihilanth also implies that Gman is not human, so that's for sure.

I always liked the description I heard from years ago. The G-Man is something very different from human, trying to appear human, but not trying all that hard. He has the shape right, what he says is coherent and his manner of dress is neat and was not immediately distracting prior to the Black Mesa incident. But all the little details are wrong. He emphasises the wrong syllables, his eyes seem to almost glow at time and by the time of the Combine, his suit is now very out of place, but he's got a form he uses to talk to us apes and he's sticking with it.

I prefer his episode 2 appearance. I think his disguise of being a human improves each time, yet still seems off

So the theory is complete, no holes anymore.... G-Man did indeed knew that Freeman would eventually be freed from him by the voritguants so he had already hired Alyx before it happens. Timeline: Black mesa happens, Eli bargains with G-Man then after that, G-Man gets imprisoned by the Combine through the use of Voritguants' powers and then is mistaken to be a weapon by the Human Resistance(HL:Alyx) then Alyx frees G-Man in exchange for her dad's life in the future and is also hired by G-Man then her memory gets wiped and had probably had fake memories of what was in the vault then the timeline continues until HL:2 Ep. 2 ending where the bargain of G-Man and Alyx is fulfilled and she was now hired by Gordon and her memories of G-Man is returned.... With that being said, many people think that HL:Alyx happened in an alternate timeline or that it involves time travel which is a no no because of the fact that the pistol that you(Alyx) get from Russell is kept by her and it also is fully upgraded which you can see in HL 2

@@gus9351 how do we know her memory gets wiped?

@@bapboi That's the only explanation, it is said to be a prequel, not a sequel as if it was a sequel then that means that it involves time travel but it's a prequel so no time travel at all just some memory wiping stuff

@@gus9351 To be honest I think Gman did not know of the vortigaunts. And in fact the unforeseen consequences he did was to nudge the death of Eli back. What deal did Eli do with G-man? Well it obviously would be seeing her daughter removed from Black Mesa. No matter the cost. That cost obviously would be the death oh him, eventually. But that was then set back to him being alive. Which, he didn't know about. But then the vortigaunts freed Gordon. So Gman resorted to nudge it back. Which Eli did not forsee. Because he already was expecting to die. and yeah

@@gus9351 regarding the alternate universe thing, why is the shirt worn by eli under his jacket in HL:A different from the one he had in EP2? at first i thought it was a mistake by valve but if you look at the original ending of HL:A with the original voice actor for alyx, eli is wearing the shirt from EP2. so they must've changed it for a reason
