Mr. Half-Life didn't always start out as Mr. Half-Life, but instead it started out with me calling myself "arman_nita", where I would record myself and edit Roblox gameplay. Also around that time I have begun to make music and that time was... ass. I didn't know how to add notes to FamiTracker so I just reuploaded 11 demo files from FamiTracker and claiming to be mine. Also a couple of these said demo tracks would be turned into rap battles, similar to Freshy Kanal (the guy who made the MR. BEAST meme), except the lyrics weren't written by me but ChatGPT, since that was new to the time.
Although, it MUST be stated that I DO NOT use AI anymore to come up with lyrics nor do I take ANY demo files to claim as my own.
However, I didn't always have musical interest, but instead I used to put together memes and put them into a series named "Funny Videos", sadly all have been deleted, but I did manage to recover one from July 2023, that originated from my old iPhone SE (See here)
On January 18th, 2024, I uploaded a video called "Even more problems with Opera GX (Part 1)" which at it's peak had about 350 views, but I was kinda biased on the topic by taking words from a German creator who spoke up against Opera GX. Most comments were either saying "i use opera gx btw" and some were flaming me for using the then recently released Pet Simulator 99 game from when it dropped. My opinion about Opera GX is that it's still spyware, but my old-self hadn't done enough research to understand so.
Also, here's a screenshot from December 1st, 2023 that showed my YouTube stats
I rebranded my channel into munitionne, named after the hat in Team Fortress 2 cosmetic named "Gentle Munitionne of Leisure". I think I wanted to name my channel as "Leisure" but it was already in use therefore I had to pick the next best choice and that being "munitionne". It's also worth noting that as of writing (August 9th, 2026) I have all munitionne related content saved on my computer.
The channel's profile picture was said hat on a green screen done in Source Filmmaker (full render available) and my main class was and still is the Soldier.
Around that time, I joined the platform "BitView", which I actually was on when my name was still arman_nita and winning the coding challenge on second place which was a small recreation of Minecraft in Python (taken from this tutorial but with early Minecraft textures added onto the blocks.) where I would post videos on which I don't really remember. I think it were reuploads from my YouTube videos?
I wasn't doing the traditional videos from big Team Fortress YouTubers, I just did my own stuff. However, everynow and then, I uploaded some full clips of TF2 gameplay to my channel, one being called "peak engineer gaming" where I was around the courtyard of RED's team in 2Fort on one of Skial's servers. In it's peak it would have around 350 views with comments doing some TF2 humor like "Engineer Gaming" or something. The video being 11:50 minutes long.
A 7:33 minute long video name "Team Scotland" was just a lot of demomans on a wonderland.tf server in RED's spawn doing some shit, mostly KABLEEEEEEEEEM or the demoman laughter
Around 2024, I would get in this beef with a young YouTuber whose name I will not disclose, where I would just talk about the stuff they did. Rewatching the video, I have come to realize that I was too harsh to that kid, and I geniunely hope that they just be themselves and don't get in any sort of drama.
The main reason why I even was involved in the drama is because my friend from Elementary School and with whom I still have contact introduced me to the team of a Solarballs inspired show named "Candyballs", where to this day, I contribute music and the voice for one of the characters "Almond Joy". And in the video the kid was mad at the shows creator "Jose" for some drama and I decided to make that video regardless. I DO NOT condone anyone to bully a 12-year-old because they are corny or for some internet drama that's going to die out in a month or week mininnum.
Late-2024, I came back to BitView after deleting my previous account around mid-2024 for some reason, this time called "arm0812nit" and there I uploaded a horrendous parodies, to which today I'm embarrased by. This would be the time when I saw the drama surrounding a creator named "wizz" or better known as "hugepiss". To sum it up, wizz had nazi allegations on being on another YouTube revival named VidLii, where by late-2024 had people with extremist beliefs, mostly being neo-nazi beliefs. Later a different creator named "A Treeager" would have another drama (to which he addressed said allegations). AND on top of that the popular YouTuber "yikes" had made an account for a YouTube video of his, creating a clusterfuck of a situation to be in for BitView.
I remember getting a notification from the Bittoco discord server about wizz and A Treeager getting banned and linked to a video named "Das Nazi-Problem" (translated to "the nazi problem") accompianed by "Linksradikaler Schlager" by SWISS, to which I was totally confused by, because who are A Treeager and wizz and how are they correlated to Nazism or rather neo-nazism? I needed context. I was on my way to one of my dad's relatives to shoot fireworks and clearly I didn't had enough time for some drama. Once I got home from the fireworks, I watched the video and I was more confused than ever.
When I woke up on January 1st, 2025, I found that yikes had made a video about BitView, and once I got to my main home back (I was staying at my dad's house for new years) I would learn the hard way. BitView had a MASSIVE invasion of yikes fans going in and slowing the servers so badly that you couldn't even watch videos normally. In fact they had to put out a warning which would become into a short-lived meme where they would just edit the message into something else, I took part of that meme and created a rant with ChatGPT, I know I didn't had enough time lol. (here's the actual image lol).
On a public voice chat, I still had the name "munitionne" with a Half-Life scientists In Utero profile picture (the actual render) and since none of these people wanted to say "munitionne" in this Frenchy accent, they just said "Mr. Half-Life", and then, BOOM, Mr. Half-Life was born. Although, I must admit that I haven't really played any of the games, I do have a CD with Half-Life on it, it also includes Counter-Strike 1.3 (What the CD includes).
I would stay on BitView for a long while, becoming a BitView partner, since the mods of BitView actually pick out some small channels with high potentional, I was one of those. You can actually check most of the videos I had uploaded on BitView here.
A Treeager would actually come back to BitView after an insanely good apology, and I would join his server and I would find out that he's actually a very chill guy who does his own stuff.
The fun would come crashing down in Feburary, Feburary 2nd, 2025 to be exact, when A Treeager leaked information which he didn't knew were supposed to be secrets, to which he got banned. A BitView mod had allegations that they had sexual engaged and emotionally groomed a 14-year-old child whilst they were the age of 17 and 18. The drama was going on in the Bittoco Discord Server and the A Treeager server, in the middle whilst messages like "X is evil" were sent I sent a message that said "X is non-binary", X referring to a BitView moderator who identifies as they/them pronouns. I don't know why I sent it in the first place, and it got viewed as transphobic. I didn't had any transphobic intentions nor did I have a reason to say that they were non-binary. Now in the current situation of grooming was the topic of transphobia. I tried talking to a BitView moderator after I was banned from BitView and the Bittoco server, no reason was given, because I didn't know at the time what I did wrong. The conversation had me delaying my messages, because I seriously thought to myself on why I even said that, and I just said it because many people were talking. To which the moderator would come back by saying "I'm forwarding all messages to the team and we'll see". I knew that I couldn't come back, because it would get shut down eventually in 2026.
Throughout 2025, I would make some HORRIBLE shit in the free program LMMS, mostly combining two or three songs MIDIs and trying to make something outta it, resulting to songs like "Auf Zuhören", to which the guitar and bass just didn't fit at all. Late-2025 I would find out about VSTs, and begin making progress on making "Debut Album". Then I created Amazing Wine From Rhineland Palatinate. And here's where we are now, modern day Mr. Half-Life.
If I had to reflect to this entire wall of text, my internet presence is just a huge rollercoaster, I had some good times and some crazy times, and I am happy with the current me, but I must admit that my previous me's were great in their own right (sometimes).
