Ending of Portal
The last few levels of portal got pretty hard, the addition of the rocket launcher bot. I’m not proud of it but for the longest time I thought I had to kill it. I even tried making it shoot itself but it just didn’t. After I finally realized I had to make it shoot the other room shield through a portal. Before the final boss battle GLAdos started to really annoy me, she kept giving me death threats which I didn’t like. Even though the rooms were much tougher I did like the change of color. The old rusted red theme was a happy change because I was a little tired of staring at the white, black and blue colors before. I thought the final Glados fight was repetitive, but I get why they did that, most video game boss battles are the same thing over and over again. Also, the Cake wasn’t a lie ! I saw the cake, and I really wanted a piece, sadly I couldn’t get it which was so frustrating. So maybe it was a lie, im not sure. The last scene was a little disappointing, first Chell is getting dragged away slightly paralyzed and, not real questions we discussed in class were really answered. There were a frustrating amount of plot holes, but I guess they will be fixed in portal 2 and the comics. I liked the end credit song, the tune was catchy but in my option the song was a little weird.
I really did enjoy playing portal, If I was better with the keyboard and mouse I would have defiantly had a less frustrating time with this game a whole. The puzzles were fun and the many different ways you could solve them just added to the allure of the game. I would like tp play portal 2 to learn more about what was going on in that factory, but mainly why that man thought the cake was a lie !
The change of scenery was like a breath of rusty air. Also ditto with the rocket launcher I had no clue what I had to do with it for an ungodly amount of time. Ditto again about the boss battle, nothing special but hey at least there was a time limit to liven things up. Overall a great and very different game with a mysterious backstory. Hope to play the second installment eventually.
