Okay, so I finally finished Episode Two and I'm just a little confused on a couple story points. Here's what I've got...
After leaving City 17, we needed to get to White Forest cuz it was a safe base for us. We got there and then there was a... missile? I was confused on the whole missile thing until it was launched. Apparently it shut down that "portal" thing above Citadel and saved everything. Gravy. But, stupid me...
What was that whole "portal" thing anyway? Where did it come from/go to? Why did it need to be destroyed? Was it a portal to the Combine world or something like that? I paid attention but just didn't understand the whole thing with that. I just knew it was bad LOL
Also... those weird alien/bug things that pinned Alyx and Gordon to the wall those two times in Episode Two... what the heck are those things anyway? Do we know? I thought they were really cool and added to the game, but was just confused as to what exactly they were and what not.
Any help would be grand. Thanks guys. And other than a couple confusing plot points here and there that I missed... Half-Life 2 and its Episodes combine to be the best game I have ever played. Loved every second of it, esp Half-Life 2 itself. Nothing else compares, and a couple years ago I was a huge Halo fanatic. To think I used to like Halo more than HL... sigh thank you for Orange Box!
