      Yes actually it comes the game bundle disc known as the “The Orange Box”. It’s got Portal, Half-Life 2, and Team Fortress II on it. Needless to say it was released on all modern consoles(at the time) that could support online multiplayer. So basically just PS3, XBox 360 and PC.

    The stuff written on the walls in the Easter Egg rooms was done by Doug Rattmann, a former Aperture Science scientist, who was trapped in the facility when GLaDOS was first switched on and went mad, gassing most of the rest of the facility. Unable to escape for several months (at least), he instead messed with the test subject files so that Chell (your character) would be placed in the roster of test subjects, thanks to her psychological profile for unwavering determination. His hope was that Chell would be determined enough to find a way to destroy GLaDOS (which you did) and escape where he could not (which you didn't). He couldn't rescue her, but he managed to plug Chell's relaxation vault into the reserve power, keeping it active for an indefinite amount of time, long after the others began to fail. His final fate in the lore is unknown.

    • @dolenore
      @dolenore 6 місяців тому +5

      All correct information. The only thing I would add is that the wall art should not be considered an easter egg. It is canon to this game, not a reference to other media. I hope he looks some of it over. He already made the connection with Chell in the portal gun room.

  • @residentdimwit
    @residentdimwit 6 місяців тому +7

    Fun facts about the GLaDOS wakeup segment: it was one of the earliest parts of Portal 2 the public got to see, and it's not fully hand-animated! About the first half of it, until she gets in the air, is a physics demonstration used for the demo. If you look closely, you can see that her eye is not really her eye but a little light stuck to where her eye _would_ be, and that a dangling piece of her debris stops moving as she spins around to drop Chell. It is also the least used model for GLaDOS in animations. Why? Because it isn't one model, _it's multiple different little parts._

    Yeah, it's the same room, Chamber Double-Zero. Valve was probably making sure people got used to the new art style of the game by just repeating a few rooms.

    • @dickbong3661
      @dickbong3661 6 місяців тому

      If I remember the dev commentary in the game correctly, they repeated some of the early chambers so that newcomers would still get the 'tutorial' levels to learn the most important mechanics (if it ain't broke, don't fix it). Meanwhile for returning players, the dilapidated chambers are different enough to keep veterans interested (helped by them throwing in some new puzzles), and communicate that this isn't going to be anything like Portal 1.
      They weren't really that concerned about helping people adjust to the new art style, the whole opening sequence had laid that out pretty clearly; the first chunk of test chambers is just about setting the tone, giving returning players a chance to warm up their puzzle skills, and ensuring that newcomers have the chance to learn the basic mechanics from the first game before things get real.

  • @Fennalope
    @Fennalope 7 місяців тому +8

    the first 4 test chambers are the first chambers you did in the first game with some changes like the buttons in chamber 2 instead of the portal on a timer. and the chamber right after you wake GLADOS that was 19 is the final test chamber of the first game before you escape the fire pit.

  • @SebastianWeinberg

    29:01 - *_“19?!_** 19. We skipped some.”*
    It's been a while since you played the first game, so it would be pretty difficult to spot, but this area was, in fact, a variation of the very last test chamber in _Portal 1,_ chamber 19 - You just walked through it back to front, starting at the incinerator and working your way to the entrance.

  • @danielrhouck
    @danielrhouck 6 місяців тому +2

    Yes, the start of the testing track (test chamber 00) is identical. The next puzzle (01) is *almost* the same as 01 in the original, but it uses buttons instead of a timer to activate the portals in different rooms. Several other initial test chambers are at least similar, but the damage is usually more substantial causing some differences. Then once GLaDOS wakes up you are back in a (drained) Test Chamber 19; you exit from the incinerator into the fire, go through the toxic goo the Unstationary Scaffold took you over, and leave through the elevator. After that itʼs almost all different.

    I don't get how someone so often can miss what is happening right in front of them. Bruh, you got some serious adhd brain if you hear "Stare at the Art" and you take that as "Find the oven". I'm sorry for coming across a bit negatively here, but it's not really fun to watch someone bumble through a game cause they don't pay attention to what they are told and don't observe most of the context clues in your area. It's like watching a game journalist try to play a game with difficulties of the simple parts of the games mechanics. I could only get 13 minutes into the video before I had to pause. Sorry :(

    it's interesting how you have such an interesting learning style when it comes to puzzles, it takes you a while to get it, but once you've got it you don't forget it and you seam to gain a better understanding of it overall,
    at least compared to me where the initial idea of portals made sense, some of the later puzzles took me a bit longer to do, because some underlying mechanic i missed from getting the overall concept of portals down so quickly.
    meanwhile once you got the hang of it, you speed right along

    That is the timeline of game releases. Blue shift takes place before opposing force, half-life source is a terrible remake of the original HL that you should never play and so takes place at the same time as original HL, and black mesa isn't canon since it wasn't directed by Valve. Also Half-life Alyx takes place before HL2.
    You will hear about Aperture in Episode 2, and maybe Alyx
    Half-Life 1
    Half-Life: Opposing Force
    Half-Life: Blue Shift

      Fun facts. Black Mesa mentioned in the ending Credits, is the Company you work for in Half-Life, the bigger more popular game from Valve, and was a confirmation that the two games take place in the same universe.
      Second, I believe this was the first game to ever made the End Credits fun. Most other games before this had the usual, black boring normal credits like movies. This was the game, I believe, that started the trend of making Credits actually fun.
      All good things come to an end, that ending is something else!
