@Florida Man, Black Mesa takes place in the half life universe, as we know it's a remake, so in half life 1, the vortigaunts are enslaved and are FORCED to attack anybody they see. in half life 2 however, gordon kills nihilanth including his little alien controller bastards, and after that, vortigaunts are free and they are friendly.

Hello, i've not played this since before Xen was added. So i guess i'll just add these four too since i'm randomly looking at this.
