Okay i kinda understand why you are saying Half Life is shit but what about other Valve's games? What do you think about Portal/Portal 2? You may say it's Overrated but I don't think anyone can deny it's great and awesome.

The game was fun, but the story was too cheesy and the puzzles themselves were often too simple. I find it hard to believe it takes place in the same universe as Half-Life with how silly it gets at times.

It did some things better than the first but i think it tried too hard with the "humor". They tried to make a new cake is a lie thing with the combustible lemons. If you ignore that part i think the gameplay is overall better and the level editor is welcome.

Aesthetically okay but not really as memorable as the first. First Half-Life is great. It's the sequel 2 that really sucks. Overly praised for its cinematic interactive cutscenes that you'll desperately want to skip if you want to replay and unwarranted driving sections and ending on the one worse cliffhangers in video game history. It's doubtful they'll ever do a Port 3 or Half-Life 2 Episode 3 unless there was a third-party involve. Valve gave up on making games for Steam.

2011 was when I was living with my nana, portal 2 was the first game I played without her watching me so I kinda like it just for that reason alone, I didn't really care about the contents of the game itself I was just super excited to finally play a game without her nagging me all the time to "go back to the words" she meant the menu screen, she would do that with every fucking game I played, one time she made me cry and I got flustered because I didn't want to stay on the pause menu all the time.
Anyway portal 2 is ok, its got that brand of le wacky humor which I can't stand, I liked the bit where you explore the old company I wish the whole game took place there instead.

Portal 1 had a great blend of bleak atmosphere with dark humor, it's the better of the two games in terms of writing and setting. Gameplay-wise it's somewhat let down by the game's use of portals never really leaving "tech demo" territory. I hesitate to even call it a puzzle game since it's only remotely puzzling for idiots who have trouble understanding how portals work.
Portal 2 was influenced too much by TF2, it lost a lot of the first game's atmosphere and was too overblown, really it felt like it belonged more in the TF2 universe than the HL2 one. However gameplay-wise it is much closer to a puzzle game. Especially when you play some of the custom-made content that has been made with the in-game editor. Seriously you faggots are missing out on a great puzzle game by just playing the story mode and every fucking time I bring this up I get a bunch of twats who spout the same bullshit because they're among the aforementioned idiots who thought Portal 1 was in any way challenging.

Portal always felt to me like a Miniclip.com time-waster in the form of a mainstream vidya title. It's short, unrefined and experimental, with puzzles that are more reliant on your reflexes than your reasoning ability, but it's very fun for those evenings where you have absolutely nothing else planned and want to relax.
It's far from being some revolutionary title and Valve trying to make a sequel to it was a mistake, IMO,but I can see why people like it.

Skyrim's source code would be stored in a physical medium separate from a devkit, since it's a PC game first a console game second. Devkits are only useful if they actually have source code inside or the guy who has it also has early beta and alpha versions of a rom or shit like that.

That painting is a print. Most of them wouldn't know how to get their hands on good shit to ruin, though they do get lucky and fuck up some real bad shit sometimes.
One fuckup that I remember reading about was that they tried to "solve" the boston bomber and tracked down somebody who they suspected to be the perpetrator, who disappeared at about a week before the bombing, so they doxxed him. They filled his lines with phone calls, people sent him letters saying that he was fucking terrible and a fucking monster, and the works.
Turns out the guy who they had found was missing because he had committed suicide a week earlier. They had been flooding his new widow and children who he left behind with hate and vitriol from every dimension, and even though people finally found out they fucked up, it took forever for everybody to get the memo, so she was being hounded for several months nonstop.
Apparently, that's where the "we did it, Reddit!" thing you see on screencaps comes from. They're referencing how they fuck shit up. It's an inside joke that their attempts at vigilante justice just ended up harassing a poor widow.
Contrast this to how 4chan like 10 years ago exposed a school shooting threat by a photo that was pointed at a window, and they could use information visible out the window to triangulate the exact house that the photo was taken from, and got the guy arrested before the next school day even started.

Thanks for reminding me, OP, I hate the sequel with GREAT PASSION.
People here tend to hate Portal for “the cake is a lie” memes normalfags spammed back in 2007 yet other than that one joke the game had a pretty serious and even at times horror atmosphere, it’s called blaming the tool for its user.
Which isn’t the fucking case with the sequel, that shit is full-blown Big Bang Theory-esque sitcom with robots. Nobody ever shuts their fucking mouths, even during the puzzles. GOD, EVEN DURING THE FUCKING COMMUNITY-MADE CHAMBERS! THEY JUST HAD TO PUT THAT UNFUNNY CLOWN CAVE JOHNSON IN THERE TOO.
Speaking of puzzles, there are barely any of them: 75% of the time you’ll spend walking with a literal retard and listening to his nonsensical screeching and the other 25% are the actual test chambers that you complete in less than 5 minutes, nobody ever leaves you alone. It’s a fucking circus, the player must be entertained at all times.
In the original game you wake up in creepy unfamiliar place, you don’t know who you are, where you are or what the fuck happened or will happen. Your only clues are the clipboard in the chamber where the only thing you can make out is “#234” that implies that you’re far from being the first one—which, by the way, was fucking retconned in the comic and now—ahem—“Chell” is actually THE FIRST TEST SUBJECT—and an emotionless glitching voice that may or may not be pre-recorder for all you know. That’s fucking it, here’s your “Environmental Storytelling 101”. What part two has to offer? “Ha-ha! You can’t talk, get it, because it’s a video game trope! Humans are so icky!!!”
Everything worked in support of this atmosphere. The textures, the lighting the fucking music, oh God, the music. Who was the degenerate who thought that replacing the orgasmic ambient tracks by Kelly Bailey with these autistic beeps and boops was a good idea?! “Yay, science is FUN!” What a fucking joke. Sure, some tracks are fine but that’s irrelevant because it’s not them you’re going to be hearing during the actual gameplay. What you’re going to be hearing is shit that might as well have a negative effects on your brain activity.
Portal 2 fails even at something as basic as colors. Nigger, colors! The original test chambers were predominantly white-and-blue with rust-brown. None of the walls were perfectly clean, quite the opposite in fact, they were full of imperfections. All this creates this freezingly cold aesthetic. Which later gets subverted when you reach the escape sections of the game where orange is the dominant color, you know the complementary color of blue. In the sequel 'everything is just blue, even the air at times.
The “lore” is a great offender too. Listen here, future game developers, if you’re ever going to release a sequel never, I say NEVER, spoon-feed literally all the lore there is. You leave fucking nothing to speculate over, no mods will ever be made for your game that explore the untold parts of the story and your shitty game will die in a year. I call it the Hotline Miami 2 syndrome.
In conclusion, Portal was about being lost alone in an long-abandoned ethically-questionable research facility where your only goal is to escape and optionally uncover its secrets. That is, if you can survive the tests. Sure, it’s short and the gameplay is below average but the atmosphere alone sold this small game. Having little it achieved a lot. Portal 2, on the other hand, should’ve never left the concept art stage, because that’s the only time it was close to being good. Fuck that “game”, it must be de-canonized. The only useful thing it did was marking the year after which everything related to Valve went to complete and utter shit: 2010. March 1st – annoying radios were added to Portal and a day later the fucking ending was changed, May 26th – Half-Life 2 and the episodes were ported to a new engine, June 23rd – Counter-Strike: Source was ported to a new engine and raped in the process with shit that nobody asked for, September 30th - Half-Life 2: Deathmatch was moved to a new engine, then GCFs were replaced with NCFs, SteamPipe was introduced, Steam’s UI went to gay-blue like every other botnet on the planet (though this one is the least I care about) and so on and so forth. I guess the only exception to this rule is Day of Defeat: Source which was raped in 2008, but whatever, you get the point.

HL2 can barely be called a sequel, it’s pretty much just “Hey, Gordon, it’s me, your agent, G-Man. I have a new job for you.” for the most part. Which is fine, I’d rather have that than the shitty drama that got instead. So, I didn’t care much about the fact that characters were retconned as much as I did about the fact that the game just doesn’t want you to have fun and wants you to stand and listen to these boring uninteresting characters talk for 20 minutes. This shit simply goes against what (to me) Half-Life was always about: surviving alone in some God-forgotten shithole.

show me at which point this supposed barney shows up in hl1
oh fucking wait
>>15642753
it can also barely be called a sequel because it actually has worse gameplay than its predecessor with worse enemies, enemy variety, weapons, weapon variety, and lack of innovation in terms of gameplay excluding physics for which the entire game was a tech demo for.
that's also the issue with hl2, you are no longer just a dude who's isolated and attempting to survive against an overbearing alien threat but now it's a gay ass generic dystopian story where you fight alongside a rebellion which is shit. ep1/ep2 would have been 10x more enjoyable had gordon been alone and by alone i mean literally nobody but combine and xen aliens, especially ep1 as it would be a callback to hl1 where you are forced to survive against soldiers and animalistic aliens while isolated from everyone else

are you a retard and forgetting that this takes place is an entirely different section from the facility that is an entire facility away from where gordon is and that this barney never interacts with gordon, thus the security guard you are claiming to be the barney character in hl2 cannot be this one?

My nigger. Half-Life 2 is a good setting wasted on a bad game.

Portal 1 was made to be a puzzle game with some decent writing/atmosphere added to give it character.
Portal 2 was made because reddit liked it when they said the cake was a lie. Complete with 'celebrity' voice actors and making sure the gameplay didn't get in the way of the jokes.
Outside of co op the best bit of Portal 2 was the underground labs where Cave Johnson having a breakdown was just played in the background instead of the game play stopping so Valve could make sure you knew they were trying to tell a joke and the gel seemed like an actual effort to think of new puzzles.

Portal 1 is a good game. Portal 2 multiplayer is also good. Portal 2 singleplayer is dull.

I don't get why people shit themselves over stuff like this. Yes its in poor taste and unfortunate, but its not Paul Mauser's workshop prototype. You're crying over a hot rodded Corolla.

Kleiner is the only HL2 character who actually resembles any of the generics from HL1.

I don't think the in-game editor was executed well. There are over half a million single-player maps and there is no practical way to search through them other than to go by popularity and ratings. If you play the popular ones you will rarely find any challenge and if you pick randomly all you'll find is dogshit.
The vast majority of maps made using the hammer editor are really easy or don't even contain puzzles and torture you with dialogue from the game for no reason. There are some good ones, I thought the "monoportal" levels and similar ones that introduced new mechanics were good and there were even some good maps using the in-game editor but you have to play so many awful maps to find good ones that it just isn't worth it.

Not that they cut the maze. but the reddit post refering to it, it's like it's easy to fake it, and the most evident thing is that devs shouldn't tell testers that they are a cause for removing something.
