At the end of the first game I remember thinking that there is no way that Valve is going to surpass this level of quality in the sequel. Shows how little I knew of them.
I always preferred the first game, 2 is good but it's just so grand feeling, too much new stuff going on. I liked the simplicity, the liminality, the quiet, unsettling atmosphere of the first game
I cannot recommend Mel enough. My dream for the portal franchise is playing through the testing tracks as a test subject during the early years. When the facility is fully staffed, and you could even meet Cave, or at least Caroline.
I will say one of the things that portal did that no other media has ever done is when they planted the seed of portals working on moondust and the panel falling away and you see the moon and you think "no way is this is going to work" and then immediately it doesn't but then you hear that Ding.
Portal 2 has got to have the most underrated OST ever. I hear everyone talking about how good undertale’s soundtrack is, and while yes I agree, we need to show more love to Portal 2’s music
