otsonny!! he was really silly in HL2 today. leave it to sonny to make ravenholm not scary by spending a retarded amount of time using the gravity gun to slice zombies in half with saw blades and attempt to prop fly over an electric fence. i forgot to keep track of the death count today, but the amount of times he accidentally killed himself with an explosive barrel was definitely more than one. he added a few more weapons to his arsenal like the pulse rifle and RPG, and honestly i don't think the shotgun is that fun to use to warrant such suspect noises, but if he uh... thinks it's that satisfying, then more power to him. the world definitely opens up after you escape the mines, and he used that newfound freedom to immediately flex his skill to backhop at the speed of light instead of follow orders from NPCs. he really is like a bratty kid sometimes... the road to nova prospekt is where the difficulty ramps up, and the stream became a little more reminiscent of HL1 after getting to the surface, where sonny would spend a lot of time at 3hp dying over and over to tanks as he tried different ways to get past them. HL2, however, features a lot more fucking around and borderline retarded determination to do things like take down far-off gunships with grenades or spend 10min raising a deafening antlion army to sic on his foes. he then finally infiltrated the prison he was bound for at the beginning of the game before saying GG, leaving the rescue of eli vance for next week. this was a pretty comfy stream and a nice way to cap off the week. it was one of those longer streams where he loses himself in the game, which is always fun, even if he confuses and bewilders me at times. if he's enjoying himself then that's what matters, right?
im really jealous of all the kadets that get to talk to sonny (real) tomorrow... at the same time i dont even know what id say to him, id probably just throw up. i think the event is pretty early for him, so rest up taichou, have fun, and take all the time you need to recharge your social battery afterwards! hope everyone that's going to the con has a good time and i do hope to see some stories itt by monday. o7
