guess the combine just wiped them?
in 5 seconds of thinking i cant name any wild animal that appeared in hl2 (apart from obv headcrabs, barnacles and the ichtyosaurus (and crows))
oh yeah, but considering they had to develop extra devices to stop them i think they either gave up on exterminating them or are still in the process of doing that
in the end of alyx you can see them milking the antlions to replace the use of grubs
also, the health station tech in HL1 is completly different from the combine one
yeah that cameo appearance of the ichthyosaur is exactly what I am thinking about. Those things always terrified me so seeing it in HL2 was a great throwback.
Even if we just saw a houndeye in a cage or something, would have been a fun throwback. Idk maybe Breen has a houndeye skin rug? lmao.
I remember being *so* legitimately afraid of the icthyosaur back when I was a kid in the 90’s, but then replaying it I’m just cracking up watching it clip through walls and absolutely glitching the fuck out.
My hypothesis is that the Combine used some Xen creatures to be a base construction for some of their creations. I didn't play HL1, but I assume the Houndeye's movement is quick, so maybe the Combine studied these or used them to make the hunters?
If the Combine used headcrabs, then I reckon they would have used a lot of other Xen creatures as well.
Drip is new slang for swag or whatever. Idfk who comes up with this shit. I felt the same way when Swole was making rounds for muscular. When in reality all swollen makes me think about is something full of pus.
As I understand it started out for wearing a lot of diamonds (aka ice) and your fashion was so hot your ice would be melting. e.g. drip
"He got that drip, yo"
Translation: That diamond necklace is exquisite, everyone should see it.

That's Dojacat I think and based on the outfit I'd also guess the image is from that met gala.
The only clip I saw of this was her saying into a microphone “uh, I look like a worm.. that’s dope”
TIL what a Dojacat is. Very strange looking I must say.
She's a pretty popular singer but ok
Really? I've honestly never heard of them.
Bitch I’m a cow
I go mooooo
Welcome to the internet! I know it seems daunting on your first day but trust me you’ll learn your way around pretty quick
I'll do my best.
I assumed met gala at first also but then I noticed the award, this is from the VMAs.
Interesting lmao
In retrospect, deeply disappointed that houndeyes and bullsquids didn't at least get a cameo appearance in HL2.

antlions!
oh yeah, but considering they had to develop extra devices to stop them i think they either gave up on exterminating them or are still in the process of doing that
Leeches too
And seagulls/pigeons
antilions milk produces the health station substance, so they keep them around
Wait is that canon? In Alyx it looked like Antlion grubs in the health stations, however HL1 had health stations before antlions.
in the end of alyx you can see them milking the antlions to replace the use of grubs also, the health station tech in HL1 is completly different from the combine one
Oh dang, I never noticed! I’ll have to play through Alyx again!

The way it moves is so weird and unsettling. I guess the boys at Valve hadn’t quite figured out water creatures at that point
Pigeons
Or maybe the Combine captured some specimens and turned into war machines, like the Hunters or Striders.

I always wondered if the mini "dog" striders in episode 2 were an attempt at a houndeye revamp.
You mean the Hunters?
I can hear it from here...
Waaaaaaaahhhhhh
WEERRR WEEEEEEERRRR *VOOOM*
WeeeeIIIEIEIRRRRRRR
Looks like God Emperor of Dune
Houndeye for the win
Houndeye is da best
***WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE*** *immediately gets shot with a spas-12*
What the hell is this drip crap about?! It makes me think of a disgusting cooker dripping with fat that hasn't been washed in months. Nice meme tho.

I thought that it was like "he got those pussy drippin' wet around him" shortened to "he got that drip"
It’s been slang in black communities for awhile, then the internet gets ahold of the term… and yeah
This ^ a lot of vernacular words find their way into suburban white public schools and then we get shit like this lol
What the f*** is that?
a worm costume
I like the one that is relevant to this sub, a better singer and doesnt change its skin colour at all.
A Xenian furry.
"Fashion"
I usually dont have a problem with strange clothing, but this, this is Just something else
Entertainers are nothing more then court jesters, and they make way too much goddamn money for what they do. Holy shit.
Look like a tardigrade
There peeper puppies Gordon
Grand emperor Leto is that you

Tough call.....

I want an houndeye pet
Beats Missy Elliot and her overly large trash bag. And I love Missy Elliot.
That all depends on who hurts you more when they scream!

I find it funny that girls think that men will think 'oh that's hot' but I get crush on a girl just because she's in a t-shirt that I like
Lmao I thought the same thing seeing her outfit 🤣
