Alone At The Enrichment Center | Liminal/Elegiac Portal Compilation
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- An elegiac/weirdcore/dreamcore/liminal image compilation of Aperture Science as it exists in Portal 1. But, it's been quite a long time now. It feels a bit different than it used to. I don't remember where I've seen all of these before...
Full Series: • Alone At The Enrichmen...
Part 2: • Alone At The Enrichmen...
Part 3: • Alone At The Enrichmen...
Part 4: • Alone At The Enrichmen...
Original images are my own work. Original concept by Allison Ghost and Soulmoose
*The sequel to this video is now out! **ruclips.net/video/2o8GpMMh0u4/видео.html*
Portal 1 has always had that unnerving feeling where you being alone is what makes Aperture truly terrifying. "Where is everyone?" Where did they all go? How long have I been down here? How did I get here?". Portal 2 is an amazing game, and by all means a bigger game than Portal 1, but I feel as though Portal 1 really did its best in atmosphere & darkness.
honestly agreed, both are incredible, but I prefer 1 due to how it is
It's strange because visually speaking, I much rather prefer the art style of the second game. Yet there seems to be a missing link between the two styles that I still believe can be bridged. Some kind of hybrid between the two.
@@sulphurous2656 It would look very nice
yeah, portal 2 has a much greater emphasis on being comedic and fast paced, which isn't a bad thing at all as it excels at both, but portal 1 is definitely more focused on atmosphere and maybe even horror to some extent. Portal 1 is definitely one of those games that can make you feel completely alone even with the voices of glados and the turrets there to accompany you here and there. Good stuff, even a whole decade later.
I recommend y’all play Automaton Lung. It has a similar atmosphere.

3:21 How did you find the music from the beginning of the Portal Trailer?
it's here ruclips.net/video/1IOYL27vKNY/видео.html
@@anoxylitol Thx ^^
Idk, but ive always had a feeling that ghosts might exist in the Half-life universe. From the ghostly sirens in the deepest parts of the Black Mesa Research Facility, to the the cries of sobbing women heard in Ravenholm's ambience track. Also the same with the Enrichment Center. All this leaves me with one question about Aperture Science and what happened there...
Where tf did all the bodies go?!
I swear the sound at 6:22 is sampled from Flight React's laugh in this vid: ruclips.net/video/QZo73qwRIVM/видео.html
its not, but its been pointed out quite a lot that it sounds similar
I did not know how much I needed portal 1 cursed images in my life until this video.
An A.I, forever in space with a self-repeating psycho, just waiting for it's power supply to ran out.
Which is never, this will never end, Wheatley, listen. You are trapped here. Forever, just... Live with it, turn into a self-repeating psycho. Come on, do it, Wheatley.
Another AI comes along and turns both of them into paperclips
"Did you know we originally used these cameras to capture moments of intense pain and agony in test subjects? If the subject survived the test, we let them purchase the pictures for $5. If the subject died, we gave the photo to their next of kin free of charge. The photos weren't as popular as we had hoped, so we repurposed the cameras."
―GLaDOS
Portal 1 was always really spooky to me. Sure the humor was there, but it was much more cynical than in Portal 2, and in my opinion kind of added to how unnerving it felt. It also didn't help how the white wall panels kinda looked like asylum cell walls lol
EDIT: 3:21 Oh snap boi that's Fstop. And I think 4:08 is from the original intro for Portal 2? EDIT 2: Oh yeah you even got the creepy early P2 GLaDOS at 5:52 lol. If anyone wants to see this stuff btw it's from this video ruclips.net/video/QaK5yr8emW8/видео.html
U ARE RIGHT

I think all source engine games are really creepy. Especally gmod when you play alone. This video might explain it.
Yeah everyone loves Portal 2 and thinks Portal 1 is boring but I like the fact that Portal 1 kind of makes you feel crazy. Portal 2 feels more inviting.
Okay, Portal was one of my first video games ever, and I've gone through multiple phases of being obsessed with it in one way or another. But I didn't expect to be able to identify a _fucking midi conversion_ of a GLaDOS voice line. 7:29 - this is GLaDOS saying "The vital apparatus vent will deliver a weighted companion cube in 3, 2, 1..."
This video made me realize that portal could of easily been a horror game without Glados.
In a way, the moving walls, the ever-changing landscape, and the hostile environment controlled by the long-dead assistant of a mad scientist is its own sort of haunted house
Some of these pictures were nice, some were strange because nothing seemed to be wrong with them, but the majority were extremely unsettling and/or cursed.
its all about that tonal contrast
🤌
I bet you can drive someone insane if you tied them up and put this on a big screen with headphones.
This comment mildly concerns me
@@catdn7011 :)
YES! YES! DO THAT!
That's what I just did to myself and yes, I can confirm that it makes you feel _different._ It is 3am here and ANC headphones were not the best choice.
Other then the ti d up part that’s how I’m watching it lol
"We ran the ai to artificially generate pictures of the facility as a test. At first they were pretty realistic, but photos with some strange anomalies started appearing. We decided to shut it down after we saw an exact recreation of the room we were standing in. I compiled the anomalies inton a slide show, but then someone put it online for everyone to see. Me and Mike were going to try and take it down...
But then they turned on GLaDOS again."
PORTAL PRELUDE LORE?!
Jokes on you I have probably thousands of hours in that game and this just feels like home
same
same
same
I detect no falsehood.
i've never felt so familiar with and scared of a place at the same time!
for me, it's a game of "spot the shadow people"
They all left me with a horrified, unnerved twist in my stomach, as intended. Awesome work and music choice. I love how some of them are behind the glass offices that look over the testing chambers
someone needs to make a mod out of these
half these cursed images look legitimately fun to play through, like the one in 0:15
that chamber is just test chamber 18 but really stretched out
That one is actually in Portal Epic Edition, as CBT 18.
Portal can make you sometimes feel like you're alone, which is a bit creepy.
But I think it would be worse if you did see someone else.
The soundscapes / music really tie this together, that one for the first image is deeply unsettling. Awesome work
Bro, i really would love to see a Portal 3 where some parts of the facility are underwater and completely rotten.
Right after i saw this video i remember i went to sleep, and in my dream i was on Portal on that part where you are going on the sewer right before the turrets pop out from some holes in the walls, and in my dream i had "god" mode activated and i was swiming on the waters, and then i found a secret room that looked like 0:16 and 2:09 fused together into a really big room, and i think it was too real for it to not be constructible so i think im going to make it into a map.
i would absolutely love to see it if you do make a map of it
@@AllisonGhost Im definitely doing it, it haunts me.
"Well you found me.. Congratulations. Was it worth it?"
glados hits hard
Interesting how this series of videos is three years old now, And after rewatching all the videos, they were still very fun and unsettling to watch. As I was a huge portal fan (and still am, nothing has changed) and was really into a lot of creepy liminal stuff back then in 2021, like its just a burning memory, liminal space pictures, and the backrooms (before it was mainstream and actually creepy), this defiantly scratched an itch I didn't even know I had. I'm not into that anymore, but it was just another phase I went through. I loved making portal 1 maps and these sort of inspired me to make some more stuff. And even if there is no 5th video, these 4 videos are all really fun, and I'll enjoy looking back on these every so often.
:)
I'm going to be honest... I don't feel as unnerved by this as I probably should
3:40 and 6:03 are from Afterburn, right?
That's pretty obscure. A list of all the actual maps in your vids would be fantastic.
I loved how creepy Portal 1 was, everyone was dead as well during it.
Portal Nights at Freddy's.
congratulations you have carbon monoxide poisoning
Fucking love this comment
@@AllisonGhost you have my welcomes
I was deciding whether to re-download portal 1 (I never finished it back in the day; it's so hard!) This video clinched it for me. I'm gonna download it just to have the ambient sound back in my life.
Some f-stop pics, noice
Edit 2024: portal 1/2 beta, alpha pics, noice
These feel like what you'd see in dreams about Portal.
This is basically what every portal dream I’ve ever had looked like minus GLaDOS teaming up with my cat to try and kill me
6:22 ive watched too many 21st century humor compilations for this to sound scary
this video has brought me existential dread and hatred
6:22 I think we found the entrance to Android Hell
The sound tho
It sounds like that one reaction youtuber laughing
You open the door and it's just a pile of on-fire, screeching turrets
7:30 "The Vital Apparatus Vent will deliver a Weighted Companion Cube in Three. Two. One."
Gotta love the last one. It took me a while to realize it was GLaDOS's Companion Cube intro converted into a piano.
"Self Sanity Fund canceled."
this is perfect horror, I need a portal mod like this, but not error. I just need something different....
0:53 funny how i know this is from portal epic edition cbt campaign chamber 17
i feel at home again
these look like a mod but don't at the same time. my head. I feel like I have seen these in-game.
You have, we just made sure you forgot
I also like that some of these images look like they were taken in the same place in aperture for example in 2:28 and 2:42 look like they where taken in the same area with the hallway except the second image is from inside the hallway, stuff like that. I don't know of that was intentional but if it was that's a nice detail
Who would've thought that maps from portal epic edition can be so liminal!
I always get a errie feeling on big maps being the only one there
coming back to this video after two years, just wanted to say thank you a ton for making these videos. Really helped me find some sort of comfort during a hard time in my life.
This is what my dreams sometimes look like. Aperture Science lies in my soul
I- I need more
more is now available! ruclips.net/video/2o8GpMMh0u4/видео.html
what's the sound for the one in 2:43? that one was really terrifying
I kind of wonder how some of these pictures came to exist
Oof I got chills all over my body now, thanks
I recognize loads of these from portal 2 epic edition, and one even from that big map i forgot the name
sum of these make for cool wallpapers
Idk why, but I like the use of one of the songs from the Everywhere At The End Of Time album by The Caretaker.
1 dislike? WHO DA FUCK
5:53 omg slaughterhouse extreme demon
i have a feeling that some of the songs come from "Everywhere at the end of time"
0:01, Average day on the testing shift. (2007)
0:17, chamber 847 (as we see it in 2006, outside of the testing shift and/or janitor shift.)
0:36, A normal day at the labs. (sector a12)
0:45, A Rattmann den in a chamber under construction when the neurotoxin hit.
0:54, A test chamber flooding from a breached water tank overhead.
1:12, A submerged part of the Enrichment Center that was probably a docking bay at one point.
1:33, Possibly concept art for Chamber 16.
1:46, A test chamber where you (probably) put a cube on that button and 2 panels beneath those wall icons spring open revealing the elevator to the next chamber.
2:10, Possibly a massive pool?
6:26 i couldn't take this part seriously because of the audio used lol
Nah that image of glados room without glados just give me the chills the most
you never know what you have until it's gone
We all need more
WAIT A SECOND IS THAT FUCKING FLIGHTREACTS' DOLPHIN LAUGH BUT PAULSTRETCHED AT 6:22?
it is not
@@AllisonGhost lame
This is sort of pleasant...
0:36 Nah fuck that, I don't want to know who opened that door.
Sería genial que fuera un mod
5:30 dead and Punching confirmed??
Portal 1 and 2 had the feeling that you were alone but for some reason you always felt like a person is watching you even in places where Glados can’t see you.
Welcome to Portal Space
You have been testing here for as long as you can remember
(You're not)*
is the experiment ever truly finished?
Interesting comment
portal 1 liminal space :o
Fun fact! Some of these images are from portal2's development,
Oh no
0:00 gmin
what are the black figures from gmod doing here
you are supposed to be haunting that game not portal
From gmod??
i can't tell if this is just me but replies by me aren't showing up so if I say anything multiple times then that's why
That flooded chamber image is from portal epic edition
New Valhalla teaser looks awesome :D
0:01 ahh~ the the atmosphere. Complete silence. No one, exept you and a death robot. And then you think to yourself "but, wait... if i’m the only one here then.....
Who is that...?😨
0:44 Also, what’s with all the milk?😂
man, if only i knew how to make good looking maps
This Is how we all see portal for the first time
didnt know I needed this but now I need more
3:20 Music?
I can not differentiate between reality and portal 2 now thanks
Some of those pics seems taken from custom Maps, which ones?
A few of them (specifically the ones at 0:42 and 0:52, there are a few others aswell) are from Portal Epic Edition, specifically the CBT campaign.
Oh man, some of these are triggering fight or flight in me.
My man straight up made liminal spaces in portal
Isso é perfeito
A portal game like this would be cool.
Nostalgia is real
this is so strange
i love it
Part 2 pls
it is in the works!
@@AllisonGhost nice!
@@lividus4804 part 2 now exists! ruclips.net/video/2o8GpMMh0u4/видео.html
"Guys there's something wrong with aperture"
There's a shitload of stuff wrong at aperture.
In all meanings of the word.
Suggestion: Add Everywhere At The End Of TIme to old vidio game pics like these
