The combine will never again control earth, as they have met their ultimate match: Valve's release schedule.
-
When you're a first person shooter character, but the antagonist is playing Stellaris.
-
"Transhuman Arm of the Combine Overwatch" ah, yes, the terrifying TACO
-
Dude just imagine taking a nap for like 8 hours and then finding the earth another place You'll think that god sent you to hell way early
-
Pick up that can.
-
Plot twist: the G-Man's employers are the Templin Institute
-
Some say that the secret teleportation technology needed to defeat the Combine is hidden deep underground in a vast labyrinth of testing chambers...
-
My favorite part about the Combine is how vast and powerful they are. Once you actually get a scope for how impossibly big they actually are, it feels like playing through the events of Half Life 2 is a fool's errand. City 17 is just one city on one planet in one galaxy in one universe. The Combine will always have more troops to send. They're so vast that we don't even know what the original race that started the Combine looks like.

The key to defeating the mighty Combine Empire lies somewhere along the mysterious number... '"3".
-
'Their slaves, we are their slaves' -Nihilanth (refering to the Combine Empire)
-
"Don't drink the water.. They put something in it, to make you forget.. I don't even know how I got here."
-
Even if humanity would escape the grasp of the combine, they'd be scarred forever, as the existence of the combine would be an ever present thought.

Rise and shine
-
8:28 I see what you did there.
-
NOW I get why Half-Life 3 is the most hyped game of all time.
-
who would win: the most power full army in the entire multiverse or crowbarman
-
Wake up, Mr. Freeman. Wake up, and smell the ashes.
-
Welcome to City 17
-
The Combine is the closest thing we have to a lovecraftian empire.

"The Combine" is not a name they have chosen for themselves. It seems to be a name the citizens of earth have come up with. Breen states it's a name that "small minds" use. So maybe the Rebels came up with it. He refers to them as the "universial union".
