Valve games

[BRING BACK GËG]

I replayed portal 1 & 2 over the past week. I forgot how piss easy both games are, it gets to the point that it often feels like it's just a walking sim. I thought Portal 2 would be better, but it seems like they tried as hard as they could to cuck you out of solving puzzles in any way other than the intended solution. Which is a shame since Portal 1 being easy was somewhat mitigated by the fact that you could find faster or just more interesting ways to solve chambers, and actually get to play around with the portals instead of just putting orange gel in front of a walkway and flying through a portal on a slanted surface for the 12th time. Despite the new additions like lasers or funnels the focus of the game was pretty obviously just taking you to new places (Decadent Aperture, old Aperture, through the production areas, Wheatleys Aperture,) which is whatever, Cave is okay. Some of the dialogue is amusing, but like you see people say pretty often, a lot of it is reddit tier "zomg so random" stuff. There are several times where the joke is just that one of the characters won't stop talking.

(no I am not finding a less shitty video)

I'm making this a thread about Valve games in general since there wasn't one already and I don't think Portal warrants a dedicated thread. Poll for my own curiosity, grouped overly similar games together to avoid bloat. I don't imagine many l4d1 fans are going to be offended by being grouped in with l4d2.

Doesn't really matter but I forgot that the HL1 expansions weren't made by Valve when I posted this thread. I'm only pointing this out so nobody else can.

HL1 is the only good game Valve has made besides Portal idk the button to shoot orange portal never worked whenever I pirated it and TFC, TF2 is alright, counter-strike birthed a shitty genre of shooters if memory's right albeit that was HL2's fault or something. In general valve is definitely going to become a lot more shitter as a lot of their success as ridden on the fact that people are idiots who will use the status quo for convenience sake, give up ownership, along with that all the people that made Valve any good are gone now, it's only a matter of time before sheeple realize Valve is crap and that'll probably be when good old liar Gabe Newell kicks the bucket.

i remember playing counter strike at school and not knowing how to play it so i guess that one

You only have the blue portal for the first few chambers.

I have 100%ed almost ever single HL2 mod on steam. I'm just missing stuff from the dead multiplayer mods. I love HL2 very much

I have 0%ed HL1&2 and I mainly just use the games as proof of concept tests for emulators on my console
They seem fun but I suck at FPS games so I'm not even gonna try

Uhhh… Portal 2 xisters… what is this???? KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK

(I do agree with with your general complaints about 2, it feels like the game spends way too much time trying to teach you everything all over again and by the game lets you do something more challenging you’re just fuсking done and don’t want anything to do with the game any longer. Also the writing and humor is insanely obnoxious and is peak “LOL RANDUMB AND QUIRKY BRITISH ACCENT P3NGU1N 0F D00M” tier garbage, I preferred Portal 1’s approach that didn’t use some SNCA heccin quirk chungus British comedian and celebrity talent and just used the environment to tell the story)

If you separated Portal 1 and 2 I would’ve voted for the first game. However I didn’t really enjoy 2 much at all so my vote is going to HL2

GTA is my favorite valve game
