>"Why do we all have to wear these ridiculous ties?"I don't think these ties are THAT ridiculous.
>>735046569why would scientists in an underground lab wear ties at all? Woudn't it be a working hazard since they are around rotating machinery all the time?
>>735046569They're candy cane pattern, they are absolutely ridiculous.
>>735047317Since when has safety been a concern for Back Mesa? Their computers explode when you kick them, all their catwalks are made of cardboard, their service elevators require fifteen foot jumps over three story drops, they put machine gun turrets in the fire escapes, and said fire escapes are also locked.
>>735047317I'd imagine maintenance workers wearing coveralls would be doing that kind of work
>>735046569These ties ARE that ridiculous.>tip not reaching the belt buckle>way too wide for their statureThey are simply not fitted well. If they were fitted well the colors could be forgiven.

>>735047502The turnover rate of scientists must be pretty high, they probably don't even make it to their first monthly payment. Taxpayer money well spent.

>>735047706That's not even counting how many they were just dropping into Xen with no guide or map. And somehow they still had better odds than Aperture scientists.
>>735046569looks like school ties, yes
>>735047382Candy canes aren't red and black
>>735049232the liquorice ones are
>>735049232I was referring to the pattern, not the color.
>>735046569I can't play half-life anymore without thinking how valve fucked the fanbase over for 20 years while they just sit back and did nothing but collect a paycheck from steam.
>>735047780>he still thinks the portal and half-life crossover universe is canon anymore
>>735049894Why would canon matter? They're never making another game either series. So the plot is still stuck in Episode 2 and Portal 2, with the only caveat being that Eli is alive now and Alyx is gone.
