Is the G-man the main villain? I thought it was always a little unclear. In HL it’s the Nialinth snd and HL2 it’s the Combine. G-man seems like he’s not clear on what side he is on, and it always felt that vagueness was intentional.
I think the principal is the white bearded guy. I don’t see the G-man being the enemy, because it’s him who wake up Freeman in HL2. “Wake up, Mr Freeman, wake up and smell the ashes.”
In HL1 I’ve always seen him as the corporate fucker who is trying to save the company.
When Dr. Breen captures you in the citadel, he (implicitly) admits that it was the G-man who convinced him to let the anti-mass spectrometer cause the resonance cascade. The G-man arranged for the company, and the rest of Earth, to be destroyed.

They were talking about Wallace Breen. That should speak for itself.
It’s weird, Breen is so… forgettable to me.
To be fair, they both look like high school principals.
