    When you think about it, the series is really depressing, but also heartwarming. GLaDOS was Caroline, Cave Johnson and the lab boys forced her to become GLaDOS, to take away her freedom and move her into a computer. She flooded the Enrichment Center with neurotoxin to kill the people who did it to her. Later, she felt bad about it but what was done was done. So she developed a mindset that, like the people who basically killed Caroline but everyone was horrible. She eventually distanced herself from the nice, cheerful woman who Caroline was. She wasn't the same though. She was pretty much a murderer. She awoke Chell, and very quickly begins to show distaste for humans. Throughout Portal 2, she insults you on weight, lack of parents, and personality, just because she doesn't have that. And she killed hundreds of people, and took it out on you. At the end when she says "You were my best friend." She means that as in, you're her only friend. You're the only person who ever, 1, wasn't using her for some higher goal or 2, forced her around like some maid, although you killed her, disobeyed her, and tried to leave her. In reality, you're one of the nicest people GLaDOS ever met. But she wasn't programmed for socializing. She was programmed for testing. She can't keep you around. You are a distraction to her and she gave you the best thing she could before she sent you off. A memento. Like when a best friend moves away in school, they give you a card, a bracelet, a gift, you know. She gave you that pretty much. GLaDOS is one of the loneliest creatures on Earth but she found it in her heart to give you a gift, her one, true friend.

    Honestly short films like this are usually tone deaf to the original content, but this was spot on. Chell wasn’t emotionless or anything, but she was still a “violent mute lunatic.” The dark humor and insanity/absurdity was still present like when chell used the portal gun to scratch her back. The dark lore was always there, always being subtle, and of course, there was some weirdly wholesome moments. Just like a Portal game.

    • @Wolffman109
      @Wolffman109 4 роки тому

      Yeah, it also is kind of bittersweet in a different way that the video doesn't really touch on:
      Portal 1 takes place around the same time as Half-Life 2, meaning Chell is currently living in a world inhabited by the Combine, so I can't imagine she'd be in a safe environment, and not just because of her paranoia about Aperture.
      Speaking of which, I wonder how Doug Rattmann is faring on the surface, since he doesn't need to go back into the facility to save Chell.

    I love this film dearly after all this years. It is just perfect for me. For starters, it manages to perfectly translate the game’s feel into another medium. This film is full with sense of trauma that becomes experience, of isolation that leads to solitude and serenity. Chell is outside of Aperture, but Aperture will forever be a part of her now.
    This hits hard. I’m not an active part of the fandom anymore, but Portal will forever define me. I will always find myself content while covered in paint or cooking a microwave cake.
    And then there’s Chell’s personality in this film. She is determined, she is resilient, and it’s shown beautifully here. She never gives up! She trives and tries with the cake. She tries and tries to live a normal live, to move on, to utilize what aperture left her with instead of fighting or resenting it.
    I love this film.
    I hope it will never be forgotten or lost to time.

    The realistic depiction of someone with PTSD is astounding, a simple sound or any sort of stimuli that brings back memories of a traumatic experience can cause an anxiety attack, which can cause feeling suffocated, clasutrophobic, and in some extreme circumstances can cause halucinations. many people with anxiety (myself included) have a person, activity, object, or food that brings them down from mental extremes, clearly the Black Forest Cake is Chell's comfort food. comfort objects can also sometimes be the subject of hyperfixations or hyperfocusing, which are also common experiences from people with ADHD, ADD, Depression, Anxiety, or PTSD. honestly the fact that this depiction of Chell is portrayed very realistically is amazing, and is something i can relate to a lot.

She probably escaped Aperture, explored outside for the rest of the day, arrived at the house by night, had a quick look around at beans/tv, then fell asleep due to being so tired after fighting GLaDOS. Love this!

      Alex Hooper this is when Chell leaves Aperture and she has PTSD. Most of the video is her trying to bake the cake she was promised

    This is one of the most touching short films I've ever seen. There is so much story behind Portal that is frequently back burnered. The PTSD aspects in Chell's behavior speak volumes.

      Other materials can conduct portals, it's just that moon juice happens to do an extra great job at it.

    • @Akoalawithshades
      @Akoalawithshades 10 років тому +6

      FireFeret T I seem to remember that in the game it was only special surfaces that worked which in the second game explained this to be moon rock paint.

    • @THENINJACHAMELEON
      @THENINJACHAMELEON 10 років тому +16

      Mikey Mike Mikey You're thinking of Conversion Gel. Portals work on any flat, white surface, hence being able to place portals in the "non-testing" areas of Aperture (While escaping in the first, and outside of the old testing areas in the second). He used moon rock in conversion gel because the liquid is sticky and white.

    • @SomeGuy_Somewhere
      @SomeGuy_Somewhere 10 років тому +7

      THENINJACHAMELEON It doesn't have to be white. concrete worked too. thats grey and red sometimes Color isn't a factor in anything outside of biology because only to life forms with eyes is color real. and concrete isn't 100% smooth... nothing is really if you go down to a microscopic level. so any thing with less edges than a wrinkled piece of clothing should do.

    A friend that I might meet in real life one day: What would you do if you had a portal device?
    Me: 5:31 - 5:35
    (Note: I thought I was smelling actual cake when Chell was looking at the cake recipes, but then I had to tell myself that it's just me. That's when I stopped smelling cake. 0-0" )

      At first, I thought she put the cake into the fridge with the candle lit, too. After rewatching it a few times, though, I saw it actually wasn't on there anymore. The fridge light made me think the lit candle was still on the cake. : )
