Portal: The cake is a lie Aperture Tag: the outside is a lie

2nd ending explanation: Aperture tag was a sealed off wing that glados nor Wheatley knew about. When you escape in the 2nd ending you are still in the facility when Wheatley is blowing everything up.

I am very late to this train, having only just got the game last monday and finished it a few minutes ago haha. i managed to get the alternate ending on my first go because i'm chronically looking for eastereggs and things so i came to see how it should normally end. I'm struck with a theory here, Nigel isn't as incompetent as he seems to be, and doesn't want you to suffer or die but has to work within the framework of his programing. so he drops you cryptic hints through the guise of incompetency. and even his turret ambush at the end may have come from trying to make your death as quick and 'painless' as possible, sense burning alive takes so much longer. and when that fails he tries ( albiet too late in the death ending) to put you into the loophole that would let him let you go. I also suspect based on the alternative ending he may also have been at least partially behind all the hidden panels warning you. Even if he didn't create them, he seems to have knowledge of things that are 'out of bounds' of the testing coarse and no doubt could have had them removed.

The roof wasn't closing in, it just broke to show you're still in the facility

The citranium is a lie

I like how all good mods out there leave the story open-ended for any future expansions, Like Portal Stories: Mel is in between Portal 1 & 2, and this is after Portal 2, but the ending leaves it where a second mod can come out that adds more to this, or another mod expands upon Aperture Tag.

it says "source engine mods can't be commercial unless you pay valve for a license"

Ok imagine a species gathering every type of gel and both sets of Portals from portal 2 co-op and maybe even concepts from fan stuff like a third portal that fise time stuff

Yep after the battle with GLaDOS : GLaDOS “hmm hmm hm hm hmmmm testing with new test subjects!” Chell “falls to the backrooms are kills all the monsters and falls back into the facility where the facility is now Apicher tag” me “sooo let me get this straight Chell killed GLaDOS two times and then she went back to test some more because she missed the place? Man her life must be difficult!” Everyone else “ WOW 🤩 this is true!”

That core has a stupid voice

6 years later and im still watching this

How big is aperture labs?

Portal Reloaded?

if this were canon, then that would explain so much about portal

I’m convinced GLaDOS doesn’t even use the test chambers for their intended purpose anymore. I feel like she just uses them to see which one if going to be trouble. If they die, they’re the average Joe. If they live, they’re the next Chell and need to be kicked out immediately.

The ending was a Lie

Why do I Imagine it like this Wheatley: A-Are you alright? Why aren’t you moving? Oh…o-oh no no no… Virgil: (traumatized for the rest of his life) Nigel: LMAO, MY TEST SUBJECT JUST DIED-

Que es esta cosa contexto

If you like games like Portal, you will probably like LORD TEMIN'S FORTRESS

Oh my god I just realized that Nigel’s voice actor is Oikawa from Haikyu holy shit

I want to replay portal 2 with a portal gun that allows me to shoot the white gel and the portals so I can do so much stupid shit

Wait then where are we

If only people like Chell are allowed to leave, wont humanity become smart, but also mute? Reminds me of old films that didn’t have sound.

just grab him for him to see too

so this might just be me, but i personally find Nigel's character really amazing because of how eerily he mirrors GLaDOS in portal 1 and Wheatley in portal 2. Nigel through out the whole game is our guiding voice, rarely seeing us face to face and watching us behind monitors. Nigel isn't meant to be eerie and omnipotent like GLaDOS was in the first game and part of the second game, as he seems really excited about his job in his first dialogue encounters, but as we continue we see his kind of, well a newbie, reminiscent of Wheatley's incompetency. The main thing thing though is he only calls you test subject, not partner like Wheatley, or by name like Virgil, or even an insulting name like GLaDOS, just test subject. It is my belief that as the test associate core, Nigel is like a new and improved GLaDOS, where in portal 1 she only cracked a few jokes and was all serious, Nigel is more open and incompetent seeming to make you feel at home and focused, his line deliveries aren't as human as most cores, so he might be phoning it, but whether he is or not his job as the test associate is to monitor and watch you test, so in order to not have another chell he is more friendly, never getting actually attached and just making you feel less likely to escape. this is especially clear here in the ending, where he is so nonchalant about you burning alive, even stating "Ill just choose another subject at random". Nigel is a modified version of Portal 1's GLaDOS, friendlier and more open, while still being a cold hearted machine unlike the other cores, keeping you in line and following testing protocol by book, which in my opinion makes Nigel a really amazing core

I honestly thought on the elevator at the end they were gonna redo what the actual game did with the turret opera oh well

I don’t know why but on the elevator I just expected the guy to “SIKE BITCH IT’S ANOTHER LAVA PIT”

Glados "Now the real testing can begin"

2:00 is where the part of ending 1 starts 3:40 lava drop 4:50 ending 2 start

they escaped but they where still there

Say what you want about portal tag the end credits music is a bop

this makes me so sad I LOVE PORTAL 1 and 2 I WANT PORTAL 3 WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY CAN"T THEEY DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT

I love how you get to keep the gun in the alternative ending 😂

What if the ending isn't that they're still trapped, but it's a fix from Portals 1 and 2 where despite the combine being there (1) or just passed (2), there are plants. I personally think the combine didn't literally kill ALL plants, but this is an option too.

It's a nice callback to Chamber 19!

Please tell us where you get these games

Ending 2 is the true one I think

It should have part two because in the alternative ending we still in aperture science I still waiting

No turret opera for you

THE WORLD IS A TEST

The alternative ending is so open ended

The turrets spazzing out is funny

Did valve make aperture tag?

GladOS be like:GOD NO IF SHES LIKE THAT SUBJECT LEAVE HER GO IM NOT DYING AGAIN

the fake outdoor ruin the game in my opinion tho. unnecessary ending i guess

I love how the map to end the game has a “gg” in it’s name

I found the second ending worse somehow And why do they kill the test subjects after all the tests
