Gordon Freeman is a video game character
You play a video game
I enjoy playing Half-Life
Gordon Freeman is the character you play as in Half-Life
Ergo, I like Gordon Freeman

Of course this doesn't apply to all video game situations, but it shouldn't be confusing why someone would like Gordon.

He is a silent protagonist in a first person shooter, you don't even get to see how he looks like in-game and his name is barely mentioned (or was it even mentioned in the first game?)

Sure, Gordon is impressive.
But after 25+ years of gaming I have seen 12 years old saving the world and killing gods, so my standards are quite high!
