"Those of you who volunteered to be injected with preying mantis DNA, I've got some good news and some bad news. Bad news is we're postponing those tests indefinitely. Good news is we've got a much better test for you: fighting an army of mantis men. Pick up a rifle and follow the yellow line. You'll know when the test starts."

J.K. Simmon's best role imo. Now I need to play that game again.

A shame Valve is allergic to the number 3, because I'd love a new one.

You're giving the devs a lot of credit, here. It's less "this particular chimera would be most adept to combat" and more:

So basically:

Takano: I drew a hot big witchy gothy dommy mommy.
