“This is only half of my life!” - Gordon Freeman probably
I really hope this is accurate to the actual Half-Life 2 and is just playing the game but in text. Also lmk if it broke or doesn’t work for some things.

Half-Life 2 is a single-player first-person shooter (FPS) in which players control Gordon Freeman.[1] It features combat, exploration, jumping challenges, and puzzle-solving, and narrative elements conveyed through scripted sequences.[1] Weapons include a pistol, submachine gun, shotgun, and the powerful Combine pulse rifle.[1] With the pheromone item, enemy antlions become allies and can be called to the player or sent to attack enemies.[1] Half-Life 2 introduces detailed physics simulation.[2] With the new gravity gun, players can repel objects or pull them from a distance.[1] For example, objects can be fired at enemies, held as shields, or placed to reach new areas, and enemy grenades can be caught and thrown back.[1][3] The player must also use physics to solve puzzles.[4] Half-Life 2 also adds vehicle sections in which the player controls an airboat and a dune buggy.[1]
After the alien invasion at the Black Mesa Research Facility, a multidimensional alien empire known as the Combine has conquered earth. Approximately twenty years after being placed in stasis, Gordon Freeman is inserted into a train bound for City 17 by the G-Man (Michael Shapiro). Helped by the undercover Resistance member Barney Calhoun (Shapiro), Gordon attempts to reach the laboratory of Dr. Isaac Kleiner (Harry S. Robins) but is subdued by Combine officers. He is rescued by Alyx Vance (Merle Dandridge), who guides him to the laboratory. Kleiner's attempt to teleport Gordon to the Resistance base fails, and Gordon is momentarily teleported to the Citadel, the headquarters of Dr. Wallace Breen (Robert Culp), the former Black Mesa administrator and the Combine's puppet ruler. Gordon progresses to the base using the city's canal system using an airboat, eluding Combine forces. At the base, Gordon reunites with Alyx's father, Dr. Eli Vance (Robert Guillaume), and meets Dr. Judith Mossman (Michelle Forbes). Alyx introduces Gordon to her pet robot, Dog, and gives Gordon the gravity gun. Combine forces storm the base and capture Eli and Mossman. Gordon diverts through the zombie-infested town of Ravenholm, aided by its lone inhabitant, Father Grigori (Jim French), to a Resistance outpost whose occupants provide him with a dune buggy. He drives along the coastline to reach the Combine prison of Nova Prospekt, where Eli and Mossman are being held. Gordon and Alyx reunite, locate Eli, and discover that Mossman is a Combine spy. Before they can stop her, Mossman teleports herself and Eli to the Citadel. The teleporter explodes moments after Gordon and Alyx use it to escape Nova Prospekt. Returning to Kleiner's lab, Gordon and Alyx learn that the teleporter malfunctioned and that a week has passed, during which time the Resistance has used the attack on Nova Prospekt to launch an armed rebellion against the Combine. Aided by Barney and Dog, Gordon fights his way to the Citadel. Inside, a security system vaporizes his weapons but inadvertently super-charges the gravity gun; this helps Gordon to progress in climbing the tower. He is captured and taken in a transport pod to Breen's private office, near the Citadel's apex, where he and Mossman are waiting with Eli and Alyx as captives. Breen reveals that he plans to use them as leverage during negotiations with the Combine, contradicting what he had told Mossman.[5] Angered, Mossman frees the captives and Breen attempts to escape using a teleporter. Gordon destroys the reactor and Breen falls into the abyss. Moments after the reactor explodes, the G-Man reappears and freezes time, praises Gordon's actions, and returns him to stasis.

Everything is black.
You can’t see anything.
Where are you?
Before you could think of anything more you would hear a voice and the face of the G-Man as he started to speak
-“Rise and shine, Mr. Freeman. Rise and shine.”
He spoke in a raspy voice almost like he had a cold, you could hear his breathing between sentences and how rough it sounded.
-“Not that I wish to imply you have been sleeping on the job. No one is more deserving of a rest. And all the effort in the world would have gone to waste until...well, let's just say your hour has come again.”
He continued seemingly pausing expecting you to say something, but you couldn’t speak.
-“The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.”
He said but stuttering on his wording a bit this time.
-“So, wake up, Mr. Freeman. Wake up and smell the ashes.”
He finished as you started to fade back into reality on the train car into City 17 as the train blared its horned when it finally stopped at the station. There’s no going back now.
