Talk:Alyx Vance

message: Enormous popularity? You'd expect so, but I haven't seen any real evidence of this. I think Barney and Dog are more popular than Alyx. pomegranate 15:51, Jan 23, 2005 (UTC)
Please make a section to put this in, not just at the top of the page. Flash Man999 (talk) 01:43, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Enormous Popularity?

message: I am uncertain whether this section contains many other errors, but I revised it twice on June 30 2009. Many other revisions have happened recently. Can someone clean that section up and work it out? 173.65.239.63 (talk) 02:36, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Relations with Gordon needs work

message: I've looked at the entire section on "Alyx's Fate" and it seems to contain a bit too much speculation. Also, the assumption seems to be that PC Gamer made it thoroughly impossible for Alyx to die. It only said that Alyx would be in Episode 2. It never said that she wouldn't die 3/4th of the way through it. I think Valve would try to re-establish the Episode 1 connection with her anyway, before reaching a point where she is in extreme danger. Basically, I would like for this debate to remain as neutral as possible. I for one really think that Alyx will die, and moreover, that the G-man will kill her...and therefore I think it best for someone else to try to clean it up. Try to use all the info, including the Leipzig stuff and the GamesRadar article given as a reference in the Episode 2 article.--72.70.53.87 22:24, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: ALYX DIES controversy needs cleanup

message: I noticed there's no mention about the EMP device Alyx uses to hack the Combine equipment. Can somebody write something refering to it? Remember that it is an important device in Half-Life 2, since that device it's the way Alyx opens the paths of Nova Prospekt to you and saves her father Eli.

Anyone know how to find this file, or possibly upload it for inclusion in the article? Crimson Shadow 07:00, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Mother's name? 

message: I've noticed a tendency to describe Alyx as "fatally wounded" and "mortally wounded" by the hunter in Episode 2. She is neither, as those two terms are used to describe injuries resulting in death, and Alyx does not die. To say she is gravely wounded is the accurate term, or seriously wounded if someone really wants to play letter of the law with NPOV. I played the game again recently and no one on screen makes any reference to Alyx actually being dead and brought back to life, at least not as a result of the hunter incident. She is described as being near death, that's all. 23skidoo 18:34, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think those terms would be correct.  If it had not been for the actions of the vortigaunt immediately after the attack, she would have died.  By the wiki page on mortal wounds, that qualifies. 134.84.206.71 (talk) 04:12, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Remove second to last paragraph? 

message: This is directed at Mezigue. I was just wondering why you removed the part about her beating Civil Protection officers at the beginning of the game? It is clearly implied through sound that she beat the officers unconscious. This is supported by the lack of a death notice on the officers radios. Why did you remove it? It shows that even though it is not seen by the player, that she is very capable of combating several people unarmed. 68.39.248.115 (talk) 00:47, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Unarmed Combat. 

message: In Episode 2 as Alyx Vance is being healed and G-man appears to have a heart-to-heart with Gordon, he mentions how he "plucked her from Black Mesa" despite others (there is no idea who G-man is working with) saying that she is a child and no use, so G-man is the reason why Alyx didn't die in the Black Mesa indicent and there is currently no information why G-man rescued her. Eli also mentions how she was rescued for G-man's selfish reasons. I think someone should mention it in the article, as it seems to be an important part for Alyx's survival. The quote can be found in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vk8IdP-upKY

message: Should we update the lead photo of Alyx? Might be better to use a photo of the Source 1 model (the one most players are familiar with) or the Source 2 model, which is higher resolution but only shown briefly at the end of Half Life: Alyx and is arguably unfinished. We can grab the images from the Valve Developer Wiki or I can make new ones if that's needed: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Alyx_Vance  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 9yz (talk • contribs) 04:27, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
