They are making it. Isnt it pretty obvious already.

lol, so obvious, they just need that full 10 years of development to make it good

Well, that "we don't do long design documents" stuff is certainly good for creativity but in terms of the production cycle... yes, they do need that 10 years (which is almost up by the way, Ep2 came out in 2007).

Never too late to cancel it!

The last Half-Life writer at valve recently left. Could this mean the story script is all wrapped up and ready to be produced into a full game? Or has all hope been lost?

Stanley Parable runs on the Portal 2 branch of the Source Engine. COINCIDENCE?

remember that achievement "pit boss"? that's probably a left over.

There's also the achievement for intentionally going into GLaDOS' trap. That might be another left-over from that.

I'd have creamed myself

The Portal 2 DLC ending is priceless lmao

"Shame portal wasn't their idea, and they can't come up with anything original these days." The only "original" Valve titles are Half-Life and Ricochet. Why "these days"? And what's bad about Portal not being their idea?

they *HIRED* the original creators of those ideas. Therefore giving them jobs and letting them make the game that they wanted. What are you trying to say??

I especially like the physics band aids.

Super_Ponton he says axiomatic soooooo much lol

"no new ideas in the company, so he hired them" That's a fine way to do business. What? They are giving money to good developers to make games that end up good... how is that a problem? The problem with Valve now, is they are drunk on money from Steam. They don't want to hire good ideas and makes games off of them. They are "Valve. We used to make games. Now, we make money."

It feels really abrupt as a sudden ending to the game, but anything less wouldn't do Chell's voice reveal justice. The game wants to carry on a little longer to wrap things up, but as long as that's the ending, it can't without defeating the power of the moment. I can see why they cut it, even though I really loved the way the scene played out.

Too bad it's been a while since we got anything cool from them

@@leoisforevercool half life alyx wasnt that terribly long ago

@@kingofthekarps3066 True I didn`t get to play that cause ion got VR but Desk Job was fire too

they are keeping it a secret cause they want to maybe return to it someday. most have come to agree that the steram game SUPERLUMINAL is similar to F-Stop

Superliminal is what you're looking for.

@@henrycgs superluminal does many things different. And its very clear lighting was also a mechanic in fstop but not in superluminal

@@haiperbus it's spelled superliminal

@@chocofrolik834 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rp-miN2lnt7Mnn0.html

we can also see that the old elevators are just old graphics, if we remake a ps1 game like crash it odn't need to look as bad as it was, so as long as its still a elevator we can think about developer creativity to improve graphics.

....Just a short cameo, gotten Morgan Freeman to voice it, and you spend a max total of 5-10 minutes with it before you're forced to part with it.

​@@helgebrekkemaybe even put it on the old aperture building since wheatley isn't part of that moment in the game

I know this is a joke but I think it may be more that making a sequel to portal is probably even harder than making a sequel to portal 1

@@daniman0114 Yea. Portal 2 was wrapped up in a nice little bow with Chell being allowed to leave Aperture. We also know the origins of Aperture. Nothing new can really be added to the story without it being bland or retconning most of Portal 2, but that's what the Co-operative Testing Initiative and Perpetual Testing Initiative are for. Perhaps they can be launching grounds for new stories in the Portal Multiverse, or an alternative style such as in Aperture Tag. The possibilities are endless...yet they're also constrained by the engine. Half Life has been called the testing grounds for new game engines by Valve itself, even. Half-Life Alyx would usually lend itself to this trend...but Portal VR? Can I have "getting people sick" for $500, Alex? Honestly, the real question isn't if there will ever be ideas for a Portal Sequel, it's if Valve will continue making non-VR engines.

@@skittybug6937 source 2 will have support for non vr? its not like its some discrete engine made only for hla, they made it as a sequel to source 1 ie modding support, superb performance etc.

@@daniman0114 The obvious place to continue the story is out in the world with Chell, the Gun, the Companion Cube, the Alien Enemy of Half Life and GLaDOS hacked into the world computer system to free the Earth together. In fact you ought to be able to play it as Freeman, or Chell - starting in totally different places with different viewpoints...

Robin Aldersey-Taylor the portal gun doesn’t work outside aperture though

And people decide that they prefer shallow Skinner boxes over the brilliant creativity that Portal 2 demonstrated with its gameplay and story.

No bro

@@nathanlevesque7812 To be fair, people are still modding Skyrim to this day, and Portal 2 is pretty much antique beauty nowadays.

@@Verpal If people could just mod whatever they wanted, then that would mean something. No idea what the "antique beauty part was supposed to mean. It's a timeless game. People will go back to it the way they do with other classics.

@@nathanlevesque7812 idk man, i love both games and returned to both of them. Skyrim just has a lot more of content, i had 50+ hours of play time before i saw the ending of Skyrim. You have to be either very bad at puzzles or very interested in gazing at grey square rooms to get comparable amount of entertaining time in Portal 2. Not trying to say that Portal 2 isn't a masterpiece

You get busy puzzlin', or you get busy dyin'!

Agreed. (Imagine it said nothing the entire time)

Well it kinda were new/different areas

@@SmashGamerHD No, in the beginning you are running the exact same test track from the first game.

In my headcanon all the new tech is stuff that GlaDos developed and finished JUST before you killed her in the first game. So while you were fighting her, she remotely installed new elevators and laser test chambers and stuff. But yeah, it IS pretty ridiculous how much more high tech aperture science suddenly got between games. It's best not to think about it too much. I just see it as another interpretation of the same world.

I figured that in the absence of GLaDOS, the Aperture turrets rearranged the chambers for fun.

@@MarkMcDaniel There are nanobot crews and such, the facility isn't "operational" per se but some aspects are maintained, since the robots never were really told not to do their jobs anymore.

Freak80MC like apatride tag i think the game is where you have a gel gun

Yup. That's what they said...

@@picture5161 apatride?

Aperture Also Portal 2 could have been 📞 ed Portals, 👍 with 👽 2 being 📞 ed 👽 s.

@@nicefloweytheoverseer7632 what the fuck kinda hieroglyphic bullshit is this

I'd guess it takes place when the game was in development.

cheezkid26 We knew that already, as Portal takes place right as the Seven Hour War is going on

cheezkid26 It was already a known fact

It takes place sometime around 2010, after the Resonance Cascade, and while the combine is occupying the planet

@@panduino2156 it's actually after the seven hour war but before hl2, since the old aperture science website implies that the scientists were still alive during the combine invasion.

same man same, and then things went so quickly, that ending was so amazing. Man I wish I could play it again without knowing what happens.

Ye Portal 2 was just amazing for me and now it’s one of my favourite games now

Story or co-op

My favorite bit is how they factored in the speed of light for the sequence.

The co-op endings are really funny (especially the DLC one), you should look at those. I feel like in contrast to Half-Life which should definitely get a 3rd game, Portal isn’t super desperate for one. For Portal, the main story of the Aperture Science Enrichment Center is for the most part, successfully concluded, and it ends on a very very high note (for both the single player ending, and the ending for the co-op DLC, which is pure gold lmao). But for Half-Life, it kinda ends on a somewhat inconclusive or “empty” note, there’s still more stuff that could happen and stuff that needs to be concluded. The only “more” content I can think of for Portal would be in the form of prequels. Perhaps these prequel games could focus on a different character, and could take place prior to Portal 1, or between the events of Portal 1 and 2.

i mean skyrim is good, but Portal 2 is the perfect game. skyrim has the WOOW LOOK AT THIS! so it looks like the better of the to, but in the long run Portal 2 is a supriem time clasic that lives on. but well its also like comparing ables and bannas. they both great for difrent resons. but in spaecking of game play, Portal is the clear winer. (to tierd for speell coraction =0=)

ables and bannas...

Skyrim did not age well. At all. Portal 2 did. So the fact that it got game of the year over Portal 2 is kinda funny in retrospect.

@@lobsterbark skyrim aged very well, still an insanely fun game to this day, its somewhat lack of polish is what makes it so charming

@@MouseGoat obviously portals mechanics are very interesting and obviously amazing, but skyrims fun comes from it's freedom

Oh yeah, it's way out of sync. There's another video that switches to a view of the presenter at the worst possible times but at least the audio is in sync. Can't have the best of both worlds I guess XD

Except you can! *SLAP* www.gamasutra.com/view/news/188840/Video_Valve_on_Portal_2_the_sequel_to_a_game_that_doesnt_need_one.php

I don't think it's the video, it's KZfaq. I have the same problem for every video I watch on KZfaq for Mobile. It's probably just a KZfaq bug.

Hold up I just noticed, this discussion is a Year old, you might be right.

ArturoTGN now it’s 2 years old, same issue

I saw this video like a couple months ago and I swear they showed the two guys presenting

@@ProdCashhier you mean this one? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qM-Zndahp5-oeYU.html Different channel, talks about the struggles of making the Portals themselves, not the story

@@dankmachine yeah that's the one I'm pretty sure

This hurt me

K

I just keep telling myself that the episodes aren't canon. It doesn't work

We got Half-Life: Alyx at the cost of Team Fortress 2

That sounded like a joke that could work really well for comedic relief before quickly switching to saying *Three

E3 died

McFly yeah I would love to know what it was

obviously the F is for frame, its a machine that stops your frames ^^

Creep Gameplays no, fuck you!

@@MouseGoat _Pretty sure_ it actually means *Focus* , not *Frame* . And yes, I am fully aware that my response is over 4 years late.

ay-oh-AID 😂

Wheatly in Skyrim

Because Space Core fell into TSE's planet, from a somehow interstellar escape velocity from Luna right out of the Sol System.

The "thinking with time machines" portal 2 mod is a really cool continuation of portal 2 if you're interested But yeah, portal 3 would be amazing lol

Portal Stories Mel is a community made prequel that was absolutely fantastic, I would highly recommend it. You could mistake it for a Valve-made title.

F stop? like in cameras?

Nevermind, just watched the video.

they said just enough to tell us they won't tell us because they might still use it, so here's hoping they use it or give up and spill the beans

ik this is old but i have to say this. You referred to something as famous and no one knowing about it at the same time. Made me laugh.

True. It’s good they used lighting to their advantage at least

Especially in the large old aperture areas I spent a long time trying to find the right portal spots.

When I saw the announcement for the second game I started to think of crazy ideas for levels they could make and one of them was shooting a portal to the moon and having a level in low gravity. My mind was blown too when I finished the second game...

well the effetively forshadowed it by telling us that the portal surfaces were made from moon rock, so naturally that's where portals would be able to go

Technically you're right, but the thing is, those are all questions that do not interfere with your gameplay experience. Most people wouldn't care for these questions until Portal 2 actually came out. Basically, until the devs have decided that they want lore, the players didn't really need it.

well congratulations, then, because he surmised a basic concept in completely understandably language, and you still failed to understand it and yet felt the need to feel upset about it and be entitled enough to complain.

metalhusky yeah wish we could get that story

You should get it. It's a fantastic game.

Same

It would be more like "Ah-yo-wa-day." Say it quickly. :P

But you can see how it was anti-climactic, and to any new players it would be a bit confusing as to why that's a big deal

Yeah, pretty sure Valve is completely dead as a developer. They're a content provider and store now, nothing more.

They made a game.

ROBLOX is 👎 🏃 g 2 me.

@Gizio the Jackal just between him drop and floor it is possible to grab before hits floor

@Gizio the Jackal not sure how he was caught when I was beside where he falls then without him hitting ground

mlee6050 you’re lying if you think you caught him, it’s not possible

@@DoodleZoo not lying just saying what I saw or how it felt

That was the last question.
