Its like four o'clock in the morning and I just spent the last (idk) seven or eight or thirty three thousand hours playing Portal 2 and I kinda want to rant about stuff that kinda got me a little angry while playing. I warn you know, I'm bloody insane and tired so if this is just a rambling mess just bear with me. Or don't I'm not your mom or your wife or even your cousin.

I can't make you do stuff.

This is one of those games that I followed quite closely during development but never played when it released (the other would be Mass Effect 3). THe main factor was money, when Portal 2 was released I had just recently gotten back from a trip from Europe so I didn't get anything during the year.

And then I forgot about it.

I hope the trend where they shove you in the room with no clear exit isn't going to continue, Valve plz don't do this for Half Life 3. I spent large amount of time in simple areas just because I didn't know where to go next or even where to start.

The best part about the first game was not reaching the exit, although it was nice, but how you got there. It's just frustrating where you don't know where to start and it ends up with you just shooting random walls with your portal gun hoping that you'll progress.

Eventually you just tired of looking at the room in particular and you open your console and just fly to the exit. I don't cheat waht is this I'm not your mom.

It was particularly bad in Old Aperture but when you head back up to newer Aperture its even worse. At least in my opinion Idk I might just suck at this game. it very likely that I just suck at this game 

Can I just talk about how adorable Wheatley is, because he is. And if he doesn't reappear again I will be angry. 

I aint even mad at what he does.

Plz show up in Half Life 3 (assuming Portal 2 is before it as I remember being told it would be far past Portal 1 and Half LIfe 2).

Also the story was good, it provided background information to Aperture and gave the game a bit more legs than the first one had.

But it's a Valve game, they tend to have well thought out storylines and tend to age well.

I'm just a bit mad about the Level design and the fact that all Valve games seem to make me nauseous after a while ( I had to take a twenty minute break near the end.)

I'm going to sleep and then probably regret posting this after waking up.

I'M OUT!

Ermahgerd I know what you mean e_e I solved Portal 1 in like 2 days without using a walkthrough AT ALL, but Portal 2 took me like a week and I had to use some walkthroughs because seriously, a lot of those chambers WERE IMPOSSIBLE O_O But it was definitely a great brain workout and BY FAR my favorite game ever. I love the story and the new characters, especially Wheatley, he's the best part of the game IMO =P If they do make a Half Life 3/Portal 3 I really want Wheatley to come back ;3; He doesn't deserve to be stuck in space. I forgive him ;3;
