*BRIDGE BALLAST* *P Y R A M I D O F S T R E N G T H* Congratulations! You are now a bridge building master!

[@adelaide2511]

*Skyrim level up music* BRIDGE BUILDING 100

[@San_D._Beard]

I can ignore the pyramids of strength, what I can't ignore is the total ignorance for landing angles........especially when you can send a test vehicle that shows you exactly where to put the landing and at what angle it needs to be.

[@renman8957]

No, not the Pyramids of Strength again, still having nightmares from the last time. Please no, No, NOOOOOOOOOOO

[@jamesren12980]

Oh god, he's back with the carried away simulator, how many people will die this time?

[@BrianGuilfoos]

Jon is SO BAD at physics. Oh god.

[@maxbradford400]

Jon saying the word "bridge" brings back Vietnam style flashbacks to bridge simulator

[@maxbradford400]

BRIDGE BALLAST

[@Mireaze]

Jons mechanical incompetence is terrifying.

[@Kiwi2703]

It's what Freddy Krueger has nightmares about.

[@legion999]

This "pyramid of strength" stuff is killing me. I'm not sure if Jon is using the term earnestly or if it's a self-mocking running gag.

[@hunkydory7139]

legion999 probably both at the same time

[@firstnamelastname3169]

You need to construct additional pyramids.

[@RinIsArty]

I don't remember Jon ever actually doing Portal on the channel. I think he should.

[@enderalden1290]

Seconded.

[@human_4040]

ninethousanth

[@lukedrane4409]

Portal Co-op with Claire livestream.

[@galaxygold5939]

Got your wish

[@GhostGlitch.]

Jon, stop connecting anchor points to each other, it does nothing. Edit: other than making me irrationally angry.

[@TheGrinningViking]

Then he has reached his intended goal.

[@GhostGlitch.]

Huh, wow. I got one of the top comments on a matn video. This makes me happier than it perhaps should.

[@pizzamanlaz21]

0 out of 10 not enough bridge ballast lol

[@DarthPyrofreeze]

Definitely needed bridge ballast

[@firstnamelastname3169]

I just watched his Bridge Ballast video, and thought, "I wish he'd done more bridge building games. But it doesn't seem like he has." This was six hours ago.

[@BRUXXUS]

Wait.... why on earth did they change the fundamental way portal colors work? That's so confusing! If you shot a blue portal and walked into it and also came out of the blue portal I think the universe would explode.

[@HanduBananu]

yea I actually had to stop watching because it was messing with my head.

[@ManyATrueNerd]

I was fine with it as I've played a bit of Portal 2 multiplayer, where Atlas' portals are both blue and nearly match.

[@BRUXXUS]

I think it makes a little more sense now that I've watched it some more. I suppose when you're not the one placing the portals this scheme makes things a little clearer.

[@SirZeu]

Mmmh jon....atlas portal or purple and red...

[@Tiny_bigninja]

@@SirZeu bruh no atlas' portal is dark blue and light blue P-Body has The red and orange portals

[@SykoPathak]

Jon, it amazes me that someone who knows so much about building bridges can't aim a cannon down one at a bunch of Mongolian neigh neighs.

[@SykoPathak]

All you had to do was shoot the damn cannon CJ

[@lucygoosie3370]

It would be funny, if it weren't so sad.

[@antisocial-gamer7293]

It reminds me of that fan made flash game made years ago after Portal was released but just with the basic mechanics not the bridge building stuff (or just Armadillo Run)

[@PoisonInc]

Something something bridge ballast.

[@The8347135]

Portal 2 Episode 1: Pyramids of Strength

[@parishdennis8288]

The will of Pythagoras is strong within you Jon.

[@illusiveman7471]

So thats what valve has been working on all the years

[@SarahAndreaRoycesChannel]

They couldn't make something with 3 in the title, so they got creative.

[@neru_pehut]

...and Artifact. Sorry I had to bring it up.

[@Hornwiesel]

They have a different philosophy than other game devs when it comes to game development.

[@narbacularblu6779]

They didn't make this game...

[@vomitedthoughts]

I love how they reused the animation of GLaDOS from the ending of the 2 game and not make a new one

[@Andrew_Price]

It made top one of my Steam Wishlist within 15 minutes from launch!

[@Vanilla-Gorilla69]

"Please sir may I have some more"

[@pale2457]

Pyramids.

[@jackwood8496]

John... Please stop... you're making the engineers cry...

[@hamsandwich1457]

Bridge ballast

[@lepazzz]

I have to say, compared to last times Jon played bridge building games he actually did pretty well.

[@pale2457]

As Claire would say: "Oh, Jon!"...

[@gaterzoom]

6/10 not enough pyramids

[@goldengolem4670]

0/10 not enoguh bridge balast

[@mikek2971]

bridges really need more balasts

[@awordabout...3061]

Also needs pentagons of power

[@arsia.]

anyone else finds it weird that jons first pyramid of strenght makes no sense at all (for one single cart), but still works for some reason lol?

[@lorddenti]

The Pyramids of Strength have the triangle Power! May they give use the strength to shoulder the forces upon us

[@supr3m3panda]

All hail the Pyramids of Strength!

[@carbonicbuckey3995]

Jon. Play astroneer. They had a massive update just now. Its a good time to revisit.

[@tenbeat]

Came across this game on Steam and I just knew you would play it.

[@ManyATrueNerd]

I couldn't resist :)

[@kanelewis2124]

but john on the desert bus vr video you said you didnt like portal

[@riley-delilahanderson9360]

KaneHammer he said he liked it just that its not the best game ever like everyone claims

[@devontapierce3476]

super lit vid bro 10/10 would watch again

[@sirsloth4351]

choud you maybe play more of this? c:

[@jwrm22]

One episode on Portal, please.

[@Embetebe]

Actually this isn't Bridge Constructor Portal - Jon is playing it as Turbo Dismount Bridge Constructor Portal judging by the way he is making a point of removing the drivers from the vehicles ASAP....

[@wolflone249]

What I’d really love to see is Jon arguing with GlaDos. Am I the only one who is enjoying this thought more than he/she probably should?

[@AshtraskaPanthera]

I'm proud of you Jon. You didn't say ballast once!

[@Embetebe]

Nice touch that when the computer is plugged in the image is a cake....

[@xPROF4NEx]

This just makes me wanna new portal soooo bad

[@mrcheesemunch]

Jon the question has to be asked, if Half Life 3 ever came out would you play it on the channel? I feel sorry for fans of the series, because no matter what happens they'll be disappointed. Jim Stirling done a video about it recently and he's spot on I think. The game would have to be literally the best game ever to live up to the hype, it just wouldn't be though Valve are only human. Expectations are way too high. But who knows, maybe they've felt backed in to a corner and they are actually making it. (I doubt it though)

[@adelaide2511]

At risk of sounding heretical but... I never thought it was that good. Don't get me wrong, I like the game but I don't know why it has this cult of superiority around it.

[@notapplicable7292]

They confirmed they are not making hl3 ever.

[@TheGrinningViking]

We have known for years that Gabe is terrified of the number three. Do we want to make a kind man who has brought us two of many excellent series foul both the front and back of his pants daily while the third installment of a trilogy is being developed? I say no, sir, and good day.

[@mrcheesemunch]

+Venus Victrix I've honestly never properly played it... I think I played the first one on PS2 when I was like...idk 7 or something, so I had no idea what the hell was going on. And now as you say there's just this like cult around it that are like "OH MY GOD IT'S THE BEST GAME EVER YOU MUST PLAY IT, BECOME ONE OF US, IT'S PERFECT" But then I look at footage of HL2 and...okay? It doesn't look _that_ amazing. It's the Original Trilogy but in game form really. Not that either are bad just...calm down.

[@SpikeC91]

More please

[@shawncat]

Goes to Steam - "Oh, Bridge Constructor Portal - hee hee, bridge ballast." Goes to MATN - "Well that's a stroke of serpendipity!"

[@willreaver1425]

Same here

[@dustyb58]

I bet this is one of those games where you think "Oh, I spent $68,500" and if there is a leaderboard, the #1 player spent like $3200

[@tylerstokes2454]

Based on the title, I was expecting this to be more along the lines of The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test.

[@g0r0keth]

Please do another video. I haven't had my fill of pyramids.

[@mudcrab3420]

Well that wasn't as painful as the Ski Lift game. Ski Lift hurt so much I couldn't finish it, so I guess Claire is slowly improving Jon via osmosis.

[@fizzyaider4191]

It’s not that glados mocks you it’s that she can’t give you advice remember in portal 2 when Wheatley tried to tell the answer to a puzzle and got damaged because of it. Same situation here

[@iinsouciant]

I love the cute nickname for trusses

[@JackieColey]

Not usually my type of game, but I loved World of Goo and Portal. Plus, it turns out this is available for iOS, so I know what I'm downloading to my iPad!

[@ruairihair]

Here here here here, to this here here here here here and here and here... and so on

[@ben-brady]

Please do the ending it is awesome

[@Merdock19]

Jesus, 5 minutes in and he’s already starting with the pyramids of strength

[@995cool]

portal 3 releast finnaly

[@NikkiBudders]

Never enough bridge ballasts

[@turtlezeus1610]

No enough bridge ballast

[@Savvyonion]

Ilysm matn

[@carstorm85]

Part 2!

[@MeetMeatMo]

This game makes me happy.

[@hugmonger]

Needs more portal ballast

[@soulsearcher9620]

Hey Jon. Ever played Dragons Dogma? Maybe you could make a new series on it at one point. Worth playing if you don't. It's a great game.

[@SuperRedNovaDragon]

I enjoyed this.

[@zagreus5726]

That Was fantastic :P

[@kalebrosenberg8294]

"This is still how bridges work" I'm not sure 'bout this mate

[@TheMullerClan]

So is there any difficulty in the game? It states how much "money" you needed for construction, but it seems there is no build limitation, so you can just build as much stuff as you want? Where is the challenge then?

[@tonyp947]

Starting out Jon says I've already played bridge builder so don't need tutorial....I remember what happened last time in bridge builder Jon...

[@Disastra]

oh god the pyramids of strength are back

[@yontevenknow3789]

Just a friendly reminder: Being skilled is not a requirement of success.

[@jacksongray2087]

Watching this was almost as painful as watching you build a city transit system shaped like a dong where nobody could drive back home.

[@Trrondee]

i think the key to this game is "additional pyramids of strength"

[@Toastclaimer]

You must construct additional pyramids of strength!

[@OnemarioOLDCHANNEL]

That's awesome.

[@markpaff8211]

You forgot the bridge ballast, that's why they kept dying

[@bigchindave6102]

Could you now play polly bridge?

[@NoReplyAsset]

aw yiss, the pyramids of strength are back

[@John.._]

Will you play ghe hitman Christmas special

[@theobrill5161]

Jon, triangles (and triangular prisms) are not pyramids

[@adelaide2511]

The pyramids are back! Give me strength, the pyramids are back

[@Yorie1234]

I just looked it up, and this is actually voiced by Ellen McLain. Nice.

[@raulprima]

Pyramids of strength, bloody hell lol

[@inferniken7601]

Yep, instantly bought. :P

[@wolfcaliburRX]

Uploaded yesterday woo

[@TRGTACE]

Very slightly disappointed in the fact blue portals don't come out at yellows... Still looks a fantastic game!

[@TheShinseph]

I don't know...I see a suspicious lack of bridge ballast.

[@gaiusjuliuspleaser]

Last time I was this early, the Dead Sea was still fine.

[@Misterlxl]

life is strange before the storm??? when's next stream??

[@lenoxg4959]

Do you even Pyramid

[@emrickazor2610]

Maybe if we actually through another twenty in there!

[@peacefulsurfer]

how the hell are you still alive...

[@connerhuntington6094]

As a person studying to become a civil engineer, this hurts to watch

[@hunkydory7139]

Pyramids of strength gave me PTSD

[@appleogold]

where are the bridge ballests

[@falcon1029]

*PYRAMIDS* *OF* *STRENGTH*

[@hydra5758]

"So that's unfortunate but that's okay." ... ?

[@dragmire3D]

... Shouldn't the Aperture Science Material Emancipation Grill vaporize the bullets? Everything but the test vehicles my ass!

[@StrydarXtheXGrim]

So Jon, when are the "I am a genius a t-shirt" tees getting released? I'll take two freebies as payment ;) haha

[@MagicGonads]

YOU MUST CONSTRUCT ADDITIONAL PYRAMIDS

[@dappermola1232]

Pyramids of Stremph

[@renammartinez]

Pyramid of Strength Bridge Ballasts Co. on behalf of Aperture Science.

[@Lectiuss]

Jon, I know you don't like Portal that much, I've seen Desert Bus VR...
