    For those who are concerned, you do get a dual-portal gun in this mod. Yahtzee was only a couple of chambers away from it.

    I like that they came up with a few new mechanics for this one. I'll still put Mel and the time portal one as my favorites but this one is mighty beefy with all those chapters. I'd argue it does a better job than Mel of explaining mechanics that Portal 2 doesn't teach you, like how those early levels remind you that you can re-summon a cube intentionally as part of a puzzle as well as how, when you only have one portal, a fizzler wall will only impact your blue portal, not the existing static orange one.

    Change too much, people will complain that you weren't "True to the original". Don't change enough, people complain that you didn't innovate enough.
    IMO, this mod carefully straddled the line, and did a pretty fine job at it.
    It's a free self-published mod, of course it doesn't have AAA voice acting. The story was as good as you can reasonably expect and was better than I expected it to be.

    Love Watching Yahtzee and frost. I watch Yahtzee tries just as a fun distraction while I clean or just to watch. Let's drown out I rewatch constantly. It's fun I keep up with both Gabe and Yahtzee though I only recently discovered Gabe's channel. This reminded me that Portal 2 was the last Let's drown out Yahtzee and Gabe did. To my knowledge.

    Pretty good mod, would recommend especially since it's, y'know, free. Expect it to take you 5-7 hours to beat. The ending was not great but I think they could've done much worse, and it didn't sour my enjoyment of the game as a whole at all.

      @@gyroscope915 I'll defend the first half. They got a lot of mileage out of having only a 1 portal device for a good chunk of the game. And the puzzles actually threw me a bit because Portal 1/2 really only utilized the 1 portal device to establish the basic portal mechanics. This mod actually reserved on getting the dual portal device to much later and let the mechanics of having a static portal work more in its favor. Where it failed gameplay wise was where Portal 2 did as well. To many segments of just you walking or progressing through set pieces while dumping exposition.
      As far as it failing on writing, well, how the hell was a fan mod with a low budget going to afford a quality VA? The writing itself is just serviceable. You can't really get the top brass that Valve had.

      @@valcant940 if half the game is boring then its fair to say its a boring game.
      Half the game being boring doesn't magically stop being a fact because the other half of it is slighty better.
      If you like the game then good for you, that's your opinion, have fun. And its other people's opinion that its boring and saying *only half of it is boring* isn't a great defense

    Timothy Spall is my guess for the actor. He was the game mechanic guy in the squid ink episode, the rattish dude in Harry potter, and surely he's been in Dr who.

    I just finished this, and I will admit, my prior Portal experience prevented me from realizing that, in this game lasers don't hurt you, for a really long time.
    I will also say this: I just finished this game, and I hardly remember these initial puzzles. It was ok fun overall, but when core parts of your game are so easily forgettable........

      ehhhh, it's Portal 2 1/4. If it was twice as long, and had Cave Johnson back (yes, voiced by JK Simmons), maybe you could call it Portal 3........or 2 3/4. A real Portal 3 would introduce entirely new mechanics, not just rehash the ones from 2.

    I just finished playing the mod because I didn't realize it was coming out until I saw this video.
    Gameplay is pretty solid, it's just more Portal 2 with some very mild gameplay twists thrown in and a bit more effort put into it than a typical mod.
    But the story is just Portal 2 fanfiction and by the end I was getting tired of it.

      @@MrAzulmagia I still think it would be better, he didn't really have much to say about portal, there wasn't much countering or challenging of points that wasn't him just misremembering the original games. And he seemed to always talk over dialogue, which wouldn't have been as annoying if 90% of the stream wasn't silence. Would've preferred if it was just Yahtzee playing and talking about the game, not necessarily even talking to the chat.
