There are some issues I'd like to address...
- I did retcon Kane's age owing to certain informational websites.
- Allegedly, the Armstrong Station incident resulted in all personnel being killed except for Kane, and that he was sworn to secrecy. I consider this a discrepancy as there are indications it wasn't exactly suppressed. Kane may have pulled survivors out, and they're now working at SMC labs. Whatever the case, information got out, and the SMC grunts know...Kane may have been one of those people like Gordon Freeman, the right man in the wrong place. However he's still a Marine. I've known a few. Some have taught me tactics on the paintball field. They are trained brutally and come out the best on the ground. (Though USAF and USN will argue about the air...)
- Some have argued about my political opinions. Personally I'm with Voltaire on this..."I may not agree with what you say, but I will fight to the death for your right to say it." And actually, the line about Obamacare was on professional rather than political grounds.
- "Kane has an artificial eye." This is another discrepancy between the lore sites and the game. The graphics would show at least a difference between his natural eye and his cybered eye. I went a different route using technology currently in actual experimentation, and following along similar lines as the "medchip." That said, I hoped to enrich Kane and stay within consistent precedents set by ID.
"I can has cheezburger" is grammatically incorrect, but it's an assembly of artistic license for a theme. So my best literal translation to Spanish would be..."¿Yo puedo tiene cheezburger?" That is, "Yo puedo" ("I can"), "tiene" ("has," the English conjugation, as in "he/she/it has," as opposed to "I have," "you have," or "they have,"), "cheezburger" (which would be translated as a foreign-derived cognate, like a brand name).
Seriously, I am not trying to rip off Red vs. Blue, I reference them in the dialogue (Kane is a history buff, so to him, Roosterteeth is part of modern media history) and in the credits.
Enjoy.
Maybe you've found a niche, you have over a thousand youtube subscribers and counting and Kane's Mind (sound quality wise) has gotten better with each episode, maybe it's time to add some Adds on youtube a do some shameless self promotion to build a business though Twitter/Facebook fan page and see if you can grow an income out of Kane's Mind.
