What happened after Chell escaped? Are there other humans left?

      Where is Chell going to go after Portal 2? What if she decides to go back to Aperture, if she's got no where else to go? I'd begin Portal 3 with Chell encountering a robot who tells her he can get Chell to a civilization but they have to go back into Aperture to teleport her there, but it turns out the robot is an old foe of GLADoS and this causes her to punish both the robot and Chell for coming back. Chell spends the game getting through test chambers trying to reunite with the robot so he can tell her how to get home. And the game would end with Chell converting GLADoS to a human form with an android or clone body and then Chell reunites with a family member or someone who matters. Also the Rattman mystery should be fleshed out and resolved in this game too.

    I've actually been thinking of a Portal 3 idea, it's not story heavy at all, and is mostly just tests. So, the idea is you play as those human test subjects from Co-Op's ending cutscene, and the basic idea is that it's just Portal test chambers, but there like a decent amount of pre-made tests, first, it's replaying the tutorial levels, just like how you do in Portal 2's first chapter, but the test chambers aren't dilapidated anymore, and back to their former glory. Then come in the pre-made tests, so let's get into the key mechanic! :]
    Replay Loop: Every time you die, you start a new run as another test subject. However, you skip the tutorial, it just kinda throws you back into it. After a randomized number of tests are complete (around numbers 17 to 27), at the last test, you get incinerated. Just like before the escape in Portal, except there's no physical way out. After you get incinerated for the first time, your next run will have slightly more difficult tests. With each incineration, your next run's tests get harder. Each difficulty level has around 70 or so premade tests, so that each playthrough doesn't get too stale. It's kind of like playing a roguelike but puzzles!
    It's pretty much just a skeleton of a concept, but there's a few extra notes I have down, like, maybe dialogue from GLaDOS could be her vaguely talking about events from the previous games, previous events in the story/lore, stuff like that!

    My personal idea for portal 3 is super dumb and would never happen, but it would be an amazing game. GLaDOS is experimenting in new portal technology for new tests, but something by goes wrong and it accidentally connects at an alternate universe aperture that tests on gravity instead of portals. And GLaDOS would maybe send a test robot to go into the gravity tests and report to her so that she can get new ideas for testing. And maybe the alternate GLaDOS is Cave Johnson that tries to take over Caroline GLaDOS facility for more power. The gravity testing could be a handheld gravity gun that can manipulate yourself and boxes gravity. I know this is super dumb but gravy manipulation could be an amazing puzzle game idea. This is so dumb lol.

    Tbh, I think they made games to demonstrate what you can achieve with modern technologies. This theme starts with half life by literally revolutionizing gaming, then half life 2 had it's killer physics engine, then portal showing off using physics in portal based scenarios, and even half life alyx can be seen as them showing off their VR technology like no one else has.
    But I do agree that I want a portal 3, and I definitely think it's doable. Most people don't seem to mention this, and I'm not entirely sure why, but literally at the end of the CO OP, you find a vat full of humans. I feel like that could be really useful in creating a storyline for portal 3. Maybe you play as one of those humans instead so Chells storyline can remain intact. Or maybe something completely different, either way, more portal please.

Portal is a different story, the first game was basically made by a group of interns as a stocking-stuffer for the orange box, and its success took valve by complete surprise, sparking a sequel (thats why portal 2 is of so much higher quality than 1, it had the whole studio behind it)

It also helps close the gap between traditional gaming and VR gaming. Especially considering how long the game is too. It was definitely one of the longest singleplayer vr games I had played before. And also one of the most immersive. To me, half life alyx felt like a demonstration to anyone that if they wanna make a truly great VR game, they can.

    Something that sticks out to me is the potential for a Portal game that doesn't primarily take place within Aperture. Fans have speculated a lot over the years about what it would look like to play around with a Portal gun outside of the lab environments designed for it. There's been countless mods adding in Portal guns into other games, fan films/animations toying around with the concept, etc.
    Part of the Portal 2 Co-op story is GLaDOS coming into possession of an incredible number of human testing candidates. Imagine for a moment a character creation process in which you name and design your own Aperture test subject, and then are thrust into the tests of Aperture the same as Chell once was. Very early on you shift gears from testing to trying to escape, and against all odds you actually manage to make it to the surface and escape Aperture, Portal gun in hand. From here, the story could go in really any direction, and it would no longer have any connection to Aperture or anything else from the previous two games. There's no chance of Portal 1 or 2 being ruined because this is now no longer a story connected to characters and events from those games in any meaningful way. I'm confident that Valve could find a creative way to make innovative puzzles that make use of the Portal gun in more familiar environments, and maybe even inject a survival element into it as you are tasked with using the Portal gun in clever ways to deal with enemies or stealth around them.
    Valve have always been innovators at heart, and I firmly believe that out of all their IP's Portal is the one with the most obvious potential for further innovations.

    BASED VIDEO. I've always used a lot of those arguments. My sister said once the plot was already ended in Portal 2, but cmon man, is VALVe, they ALWAYS make peak plots. I swear to God they could even continue Chell's story and somehow they could make it WAY EVEN BETTER than Portal 2, I'm totally sure of that without a doubt.
    Also imo Portal Revolution is very good but in plot terms is kinda uhh idk its ending was bad I think. If you want more Portal Mods/Fangames with better plots you should try Portal Prelude and Portal Stories Mel. Those both can surely be canon, their plot is very interesting and I think every Portal fan should play them!

    This could still make sense after aperture desk job because in that game aperture is still hiring at that time meaning the “lab boys” could still transfer him to another robot.

    For the sake and point of conversation, I just wanted to mention that Valve originally wanted Portal 2 to have a different protagonist, the unused Mel (that the folks at Prism games took to make Portal Stories: Mel about). They went with Chell because test players were confused that GLaDOS didn't recognise.

  • @username6127
    @username6127 2 місяці тому

    I think it would be interesting to see a mix of both the half-life and portal games as the third installment. For the third game, we could see both games intertwine with each other. We'll play as Gordon in one section, and then in another section, we could switch and play as Chell (given the ending we get in portal 2), or maybe even ATLAS and P-body. And since they're intertwined, we can get a mix of elements from each side. Like using some pre-placed portals to get through an area as Gordon and then, either as Chell or the robots (likely surprised at first since they had no human contact prior), we could assist in fighting the combine. Since they're more used to only using portals, however, it'd be likely that we would see them help only passively or at least for a decent chunk of the game. That's how I see it at least, and I think it would be interesting, but it'd need to be executed perfectly in order to be done right.

    I've actually thought about what the story could be for some time now. I don't like the idea of a prequel very much, so a sequel is what I'm going for.
    I decided to look for some details in Portal 2 that I didn't like and see if I could get something from that. The most major plot point of Portal 2 that I don't like is the deletion of Caroline at the end. It never felt satisfying to me and it felt like a last ditch effort to tie up a loose end.
    Thus, here is what I propose: Chell goes back into Aperture because she knows that Caroline is still there. Caroline is still there because GLaDOS is still there; present you WAS past you, and past you IS present you. This would say a lot about Chell's character, too, if it were to happen.

    To me theres only 2 ways to do it:
    1- make it a prequel and have rattman as the protagonist. This one is complicated, as it would be limited by the timelines of both portal 1 and the lab rat comic.
    2- (my favourite) portal 3 follows eli vance and gordon freeman as they explore the borealis, which would either be a standalone facility or would teleport them to the main aperture facility, and glados would be ecstatic to have new capable test subjects. Ideally it would explore the relationship between black mesa and aperture, and the hints sprinkled throughout the expanded material that black mesa actually stole its technology from aperture (maybe there'd ba a jab at gordon for being another mute protagonist). I get its a bit weird to make the sequel to HL2 be a game in a different series, but honestly i dont think theres anyone out there who doesnt know the story of both series

    An idea i had is Glados eventually missing Chell and quite literally rebuilding the entire Aperture Science complex to be fully mobile around the overworld, so it can find Chell, capture her for further testing while exploring the wasteland that was left from the Half-Life universe (or even it's aftermath! Could be a great tease to Half-Life 3)

They created level design, graphics and good physics. They were trying to finish off the chapter. Valve got wiff of this and created half life Alyx out of pettiness. That’s why the ending changed because it stopped project borealis in their tracks. You see them on UA-cam.

    Regardless, I think it's clear there won't be a Portal 3. Portal 1 ended with a cliffhanger, making it obvious that a sequel was planned, but Portal 2 ties everything together. All the humans in Aperture's coma storage are dead, GlaDOS doesn't want to test anymore, and Chell is finally free. There's no better way for Valve to say "We're done, the franchise is in the community's hands now."

    Idk how I feel about a Portal 3. On one hand, I want it. Desperately. And I would love to get more content. But on the other hand, a Portal 3 would DEFINITELY require Chell be the main protagonist again. She is LITERALLY the protagonist for the first 2 games and leaving her behind would be like leaving part of the game itself behind. And I don’t see any way for them to continue her story without seeming desperate. Chell is the CENTER of the Portal universe and we play as her and follow her story too long to just leave her behind. I suspect this is why so many Portal fanfics bring Chell back. That’s the main reason why I protest to a Portal 3. I do REALLY want a Portal 3, but I just can’t see them making one that would appeal to me or a lot of others.

    I think the main point against "Valve CAN make Portal" 3 is that Valve DIDN'T make Portal 1 and 2. Seriously. They were both school projects made by college kids who Valve hired to flesh out their ideas. And importantly, they were separate projects, made by separate groups of students, at separate times. Portal 1 started as a student game called Narbcular Drop, which is where the mechanic of the portals themselves came from, and Portal 2 started as a student game called Tag: The Power Of Paint, which is where the gels came from. Portal 3 probably won't happen until some new college kids impress Valve with another game using never before seen puzzle mechanics.
