Striders were actually alien creatures that the Combine captured, assimilated, and heavy modified with their technology. The Combine developed the ability to synthetically create these creatures, as they ran their original population extinct.

I dissected one in gmod and discovered some interesting things, first of all, the machine gun 'nose' socket is actually in what used to be it's mouth with the roof of the mouth removed and the ammunition packed up into what was once the nasal cavity. Second, the legs would have had two toes on each foot, the toes and foot where replaced. Last, they were most probably completely harmless prior to the combine conquering them, they seem to have been animals from the same planet as the gunship and dropship, as well as unused beta soldier synths. They were most likely herbivores that used their long legs to reach tall plants, similar in function to earth's giraffes.

When you look at the striders, they appear to be mostly unmodified. They are an insectoid species, with a proboscis-like feeding tube. Their stilt legs could mean that their original homeworld, the strider homeworld (strider prime) is a low gravity, forest world. Probably their homeworld orbits a star similar to ours and has an atmosphere similar to ours.

Hah, a nice idea. Come to think of it, it's not only the case with insects as domestic cats (among other felines) also have whiskers on their paws. As you can read on the web: "Whiskers on the back of the legs help your cat climb trees. The carpal whiskers, located on the underside of the cat’s wrist are very useful in hunting. When the cat has prey captured in her paws, the carpal whiskers help determine if there’s any movement. Since cats can’t see as well up close, the carpal whiskers also help determine the position of the prey." Considering the enormous length of striders' legs, I suppose additional sensory organs wouldn't be out of place, helping them navigate through tight spaces and detect enemies.

Striders have full emotion and intelligence. Here’s why: Hunters and striders are connected and protect eachother. Hunters are smaller than striders, and when the player is low in HP hunters make a laughing noise. Striders have a brain much like the hunter’s and it’s a lot bigger than the hunter’s brain which shows they can communicate and aren’t idiotic. Hunters have proven emotion from the laughing I said earlier. Striders have proven emotion because when they die they roar a lot louder and their roar gets wavy as if they are running out of life until it fades. The default roar noise isn’t wavy and doesn’t fade. Showing that they are more than dumb brutes with 99% of them replaced with metal. So.... there you have it. Proof that striders are not just dumb brutes. You are going to say I’m crazy for what I am going to say, but listen here. Given that time is a key part of this franchise, from how Vortigaunts and the G-Man can control time and stop it at will, that means there are timelines. And from how these things have brains bigger than human heads that are completely Intact with no modifications, hear me out and I bet you’ll call me crazy, but in one timeline, ONE TIMELINE, a strider becomes a defect and gets taught to help resistance and rebels against the combine. From how they speak and can communicate with hunters, and even know how to shoot into the sky to let combine know they found a high profile target such as Gordon and Alyx, they are at least smarter than a dog. Dogs are smart enough to understand A portion of English. Their brain is smaller than a human’s brain, and from these creatures having such a big brain, they are smart enough to understand English. Meaning that if a rebel disarms a strider, and tells the strider that the combine took over their planet using some sort of waves in the way hunters talk to striders telepathically, that they can convince striders to rebel and rearm the strider by telling the truth about the combine. It sounds crazy, but from how I think it, it adds up....

I never finished the latter cause one man wrecking the worldwide Nazi War machine all by himself is ridiculous. Half Life may seem similar as Freeman also appears out of the blue and wreaks havoc to the combine almost singlehandedly. The main difference, however, is that at no point does Freeman come across as invincible demigod. First, he runs from the combine and even his later victories are only moves on the chessboard where Gordon is merely a pawn. Ah, damn, sorry for rambling off-topic.
