twitch :aah:
Yes, do that! I want you to make it as disturbing as possible. I’ve played HL so many times the normal Gonarch just doesn’t cut it anymore.
if you do please, make the hair short. longer hair on anything NOT living in a tundra just seems unnatural. not to mention that on the gonarch, long hair would just look absolutley over the line disturbing.
This thread is terrible.
Also, I’m sure the devs have/are working on the perfect between disturbing and not…
well, not gay pr0n, put it bluntly.
Hey, at least we don’t have to destroy it from the inside out…
Right Ram?..
yeesh, this topic really went to hell quickly. Then again, what do you expect of a thread labelled:“Gonarch’s Testicle suggestion?”
BTW, there’s no proof that it is a testicle. Only a big, dancing, disturbing, nightmare bringer baby headcrabs’s spawner.
Valve said the original idea was a massive armoured spider with a big testicle. It’s obviously not fulfilling the exact biological function of a testicle in the game fiction, but it is beyond a doubt designed to resemble one, to disturb people.
I’d be OK if it had short hair. most arthropods(bugs) have at least small hairs on them. on spiders (which headcrabs, particularly the black poisonous kind, resemble) the hair is a LOT more prevalent. I’d imagine the big mama headcrab would, at least have small hairs on her legs. putting hair on the erm “jiggly bit” of her would probably creep players out.
But then again:The goarch ISN’T an anthropod. It’s an alien with the goal to make people grow testies.
It might be an alien testicle. Who says that the males aren’t the ones to carry the offspring inside their giant testicle sack. Then, later, :aah:
Maybe in the alien world males give birth to children where in the human world females give birth to children…
Oh wait, Gonarch is also known as Big Momma. Even if Gonarch is male, it is an alien. Therefore, it really doesn’t matter if it’s male or female because it’s an alien from a 1998 video game that’s being remade in the Orange Box Source Engine. All I care about is killing the damn fucking thing and moving on to Nihilanth and blowing its’ brains out with a shotgun.
Am I the only one that thinks that Gonarch’s sack looks nothing like balls ? It’s not hairy, and has a hole in the bottom
(does a shiver-take) ugh, I don’t even want to know what the hole’s for.
For dropping baby headcrabs out of.
It’d be kinda neat if they did a kindof ‘crawly under the skin’ effect to show the living headcrabs moving around inside.
EDIT - like a moist, hairy balloon full of maggots.
This thread is bringing out the most disgusting imagery ever conceived. You should all be ashamed. :fffuuu:
or really proud, depend on who you are.
or particularly immature
You are correct the gonarch does not look like balls. It DOES look like one testicle. The gonarch is a member of the uniballer club. Other members include Lance Armstrong, Tom Green, and a guy I refer to as Lefty(he lost his right testicle because of a shrapnel wound while we were in Iraq). Also not all ball sacks are hairy, some people actually groom themselves.
