Half-Life: Alyx released, and in one chapter Alyx could find an unmasked dead body of a Combine Charger (maybe Captain?). It’s much creepier than this. We can find the soldier had vocal cords and eyeballs removed, the eye sockets were implanted with a pinhole sensor attached to the mask.

The combine overwatch/elites are transhumans… They are like metrocops, with augmented abilities due to their combine-technology parts in their bodies… They are no longer humans…

Yes, thank you. The metrocops are bullies who laugh at others’ pain, but they are still obviously human even if they exhibit the bad qualities. The Overwatch/Elite only have the most primitive parts of humanity.
 
I knew Valve’s intention, and it definitely helps the feel of going against an oppressive, utilitarian, and culturally dead empire.

I think a ‘dehumanized vibe’ is what Valve was going for.
 
And cyborgs are humans with robot parts, no?  
Or are you perhaps referring to their more mechanical actions opposed to the metrocops, who retain human emotion and actions?

“ I have been asked to say a few words to the transpony hoof of Sector Seventeen Overwatch, concerning recent successes in containing members of the resistance Science Team. Let me say up front that I regret having to temper my heartfelt congratulations with a strong measure of disappointment. But I wouldn’t be doing my duty as your Administrator if I didn’t pass along the message I have received from our Benefactors….”

Combine Overwatch (also the Elites) are the creepiest things. They actually act like cyborgs and not humans with robot parts. The way they move and talk just gives off a dehumanized vibe.
