Who TF is Rattman? Can anyone explain that much?

The lighting on the goo in zoo_testarea is remarkable...

Spamton Says That Mike Is An Crook Correct? Remove The C From Crook And Youl Get Rook, Meaning That Mike And Tenna Are Possibly Just Read Hearings And The Boss Is Possibly Going To Be Called C.Rook

FIRST THINGS FIRST: I like this theory, It's well written and has a great angle to it, I just struggle to resonate with the evidence given for why caroline is not chells biological mother. the first counterexample of the potato battery experiment, if a child is adopted, they are usually adopted at a young age and not told so until they're older. This could explain why they refer to their father and cave as different people the second counterexample of the races of the characters disregards the fact that this is a work of fiction, and you did not care to mention or look for what the character designer said about caroline's race, instead you chose to just say "this face model is asian, this one is white, theory debunked" and proceeded to imply that anyone who argues with you is racist because they are trying to white-wash chell. And for evidence for why cave and caroline could be the mother of chell: early in the game, glados said there are 2 people in cryogenic storage with their last name, while this could be their adopted parents, it's not crazy to think that glados could have used chell's birth name. glados shifts her position on you being adopted after learning she is caroline, and defends you against wheatley, which could be some sort of maternal instinct kicking in. and there is plenty more already spoken by other people. I can understand your perspective as a person of the lgbtq+ community, and on some points, I can see where your mind is headed, but it feels like your approach is more "I'm right, your wrong" leaving no room for actual debate or discussion. If you were approaching this with more of an open mind, I could see your perspective a lot more, and want to listen to you a lot more. EDIT: I realized that Ossy uses "they" instead of "she" and chell is not given a gender in the games, so it's best to just use "they". Sorry, didn't know!

This was such a good video ❤❤❤

Hi Dorsa

Da cube go brrrr😂

World portals are cool though also apparently i pushed the skip button on accident when i played through part of the mod

most i know bout chell is she is so angry all of the time

your videos are like fuel to my portal autistic mind. love them!

I would guesss.............. that the devs decided to change the design 🙃

crazy

hi dorsa !

why does he not pronounce chell as shell?? its driving me crazy

Imagine if they went along with the glados having an arm ; she would attempt to grab you if you tried to dislocate the sphere’s from her , and she would also suffocate you with her arms.

15:17 bros even got the ikea shark 😭

THEY MADE A G@Y GLaDOS SONG, WHY

glados is just wearing more accessories in 1. looks like an eyepiece and headphones. she’s au naturale in 2.

I guess what they meant by the game becoming dated if they showed Ratman is referring to the fact that it would complicate things too much to have a human model talking to the player while the rest of the world of portal 2 consists of things that aren't real, yet are stylised so uniquely that they seem like they could exist logically, therefore making the game still seem modern. Sorry if that made no sense.

There is one aspect of Chell that I was hoping this was going to cover but didn't got a note: like Freeman, Chell is a silent protagonist. What are the odds that two extremely capable and intelligent adults, who can adapt to completely crazy situations, are also completely silent when surviving these scenarios? Like Freeman, Chell is a vehicle for the player, so it is understandable that Valve wanted to keep them silent for immersion (and, as consequence, cost cutting reasons since no need for voice actor). Still, they don't communicate on any way with anyone (other than action by the player's hand), don't show any kind of emotion, they don't even grunt in pain. What would be needed to make a human act like that? My personal guess is that when G-Man addresses Freeman, he's not addressing the character, he's actually addressing the player. The player isn't the protagonist, but an entity (not unlike the G-Man) that is capable of either controlling humans, or stays hidden among them, for what purpose not even G-Man may know. Chell, similarly, is one of such entities (or controlled by one), either knowingly by Aperture Science or not. If knowingly, it makes sense on how Aperture operates (by direct competition with Black Mesa), which would justify the president of Aperture to address the adopted daughter of a lowly scientist because of a such a small project. If unknowingly, then these entities are investigating/infiltrating both science complexes, and that would explain why Chell would keep a positive (or neutral) relationship with an adopted parent (that works on Aperture) even after she was mistreated and abandoned by her former parents and showed signs of distrust towards others (her unlikable and unfriendly nature).

Snark

awesome and precise lore video

2:12 Wheatley gets banished to the shadow realm

alright so who's gonna build a life size aperture science facility? and then a life size black mesa, and then recreate the events of the entire Half Life Universe

Whether or not what she claims is noted in the personnel file is true, the admission here is that Chell HAS a personnel file. Only an Aperture Science employee would have a "personnel file" - test subjects would just have data files because that's all they are. This would mean Chell "isn't a good person" because she betrayed the company in some way since, from GLADoS's point of view, the only morality is loyalty to Aperture Science.

Dorsa <3 (yes I spent time trying to pause the video so I could read it)

Anyone remember Robins Donuts in Canada and they had that Black Forest cake in a rotating display case

i dont really see what the large difference between wakeup and portal 2 glados are, idk if i missed anything directly comparing them in the video or i something but i kinda wish it was shown more bc im kinda lost on what the big difference is supposed to be (i dont mean portal 1 vs portal 2 glados)

Hi Dorsa

Yes and no lmao but who cares at this point we're past this

Really like your content, huge Portal fan here. I have a bit of constructive criticism though… speaking a little more clearly can go a long way. I misunderstand a lot of the things you say because many of your words run together. No hate, just a suggestion.

i just realized that portal 1 glados has arms

Are you a girl?

Finally someone brings up the obvious. You can have more than one “Bring your daughter to work” day

when I hear people talk about which portal games art style looks better they often say portal 1, and it kind of infuriates me because portal 1 doesn't even have its own art style it’s just half-life 2's. the only difference being the setting of course they're going to look different ones in a combine ruled surface and ones in an underground lab (that was designed to be pristine looking in the test chambers, outside of that it looks like HL2), portal 1’s art style was dragged down by portal 1’s pretty inexperienced (source) developers, and it being a half life tie-in game that was supposed to be an orange box filler (meaning they made it look like a half-life game). Portal 2 is the definitive art style for me because by that point portal was its own franchise with its own fans and players even if it still shared a universe, portal 2’s developers had more experience, more time to not rush the game (unlike portal 1 did to fit into the orange box), more creative freedom due to the franchise thing I said earlier, and the newer version of source gave them the ability to give it the true “portal” art style that made it its own unique thing. Team fortress 2 is just a half life 2 mod like portal 1, but had a better team that had more time than portals devs, more experience, and it wasn’t a half-life game, so it could get its own art style different from HL2’s, and its art style is one of it most praised things for being so different from other source games. Portal 2 got to do that same thing people just don’t see that (although it is still reminiscent of HL for obvious reasons) yet its way different: cartoonish, expressive, etc. (video brought this debate up so thought I would share my opinion)

this video pushed me to learn hammer (gmod version) then learn the portal 2 hammer, then how to export the puzzle creator maps, then to edit them and now im making my first fully custom maps, and its like hell but its relaxing overall, altho i dont think that spending 9 hours on the elevators is good

wheres the unused area at 1:56? i wanna see it

15:44 c-c-can has? Can borrow??!!

Someone needs to rig this model

"The most deranged portal gameplay I have ever recorded" 3 words. Portal Epic Edition.

I think the Ratman disc was just going to show what the noise transmission was for the player instead of the community doing it themselves. Kinda like a built-in decoder.

Fun times, it wasn't easy getting that Perceptual Pack video in one take.

5:05 Harry101UK animated the GLaDOS wakeup 9 years ago in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5m8h418oZJ2oZIsi=HS78u-XwC9Iwbz7- Well, that's what I think

Why do you speak like a retard

Hi Dorsa :D

GLaDOS excitedly saying 'CEREAL' always makes me smile

hi dorsa
