combine politics

[Tarkin]

Maybe the combine are an international force established after an alien invasion, as an agreement to keep the peace and take care of any human renegades and fanatics.

Gordon and his friends are part of a fanatical terrorist anti-alien group who believe they can take on the aliens since Gordon did so well in Black Mesa.

But that doesn't explain why the Combines are fighting the Aliens...

 

[Brian Damage]

Combine = Evil XCom?

 

[AJ Rimmer]

Gordon & Gang= VALVe?
Combine= The evil Vivendi?
Aliens= The vicous yet primitive EA Games?

Gordon & Gang= VALVe?
Combine= The evil Vivendi?
Aliens= The vicous yet primitive EA Games?

Yeah, VALVe were wrong about the release date, Vivendi were disastrously wrong? Or the other way around...

 

[AJ Rimmer]

No, but everyone knows that distributors are the second most evil beings in the world.

Why that's pretty obvious
These are not aliens which are affiliated with the alien government, they are the renegade, disobedient aliens! they just didn't like the fact that they had to stop eating humans so they kept doing it anyways.

[Spugmaster]

No, but everyone knows that distributors are the second most evil beings in the world.

The first of course, being lawyers...

 

[AJ Rimmer]

The first of course, being lawyers...

Exactly. The third I think are software telephone support employees.

 

[Brian Damage]

I'd debate that, I'd say "Tax Men" would be somewhere in the top three...
