Posted May 24, 2011 Yeah I liked Wheatley more as a villain than anything else. Oh god, Portal fanfic... Everything's Chell/Wheatley, or Chell/GLaDOS or Atlas and P-body, almost always involving them becoming human. WHY Dx Why is there so little good fic that focuses on... you know, some kind of story? Something interesting? I've been trying to work out a good Portal fic that examines Chell before the test, and something after, probably working with 'Chell gets involved with the HL world'. It's fun to think about I've often thought about Chell getting envolved with HL as well. It is an interesting idea. I haven't read any Portal 2 fics, aside from that short one about Altus and P-Body. I liked that one, 'twas cute. <3 Share this post Link to post

Posted May 24, 2011 You don't need to if you draw from Chells perspective... yeeeaaaaah, I was thinking about that...might do some doodling/sketching later...maybe...acutally, if I do, it might have to wait until tomorrow... oh yeah, did anyone else see P-body run through the exit when Wheatley "made" an exit for one of the test chambers? X3 GAH I want to play more but I can't right now :/ Share this post Link to post
Posted May 24, 2011 (edited) -raises hand- I loved seeing her there, and seeing both of them at the end Che la Stimo. Exile. Exile is just great, as for Che la Stimo... I still like it. It shows GLaDOS is indeed GLaDOS, and Caroline is a much repressed, smaller part of her. Teaching the turrets to sing is a nice way for her to try and do something x3 ... -is still firmly of the belief that Caroline is completely gone, though- Edited May 24, 2011 by Dr. Paine Share this post Link to post
Posted May 24, 2011 I saw P-Body my second time playing, when I was going for the Smash-TV achievement. Didn't take long to combine Wheatley's behavior during that chamber and P-Body's appearance. Just read those both, Paine. I especially liked Che la Stimo. x3 Share this post Link to post

Oh I hate that achievement, more than I hated Camera Shy... -is now writing the fic version of that scene- I'll be putting it up on my writing thread, if anyone wants to see Share this post Link to post
Posted May 24, 2011 Yeah. Oh I hate that achievement, more than I hated Camera Shy... -is now writing the fic version of that scene- I'll be putting it up on my writing thread, if anyone wants to see I liked Smash TV. Getting the achievement was a blast, I thought. x3 Wheatley's reactions cracked me up every time. Camera Shy, on the other hand, I never really persued. x_x Share this post Link to post

Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) That reminds me of another thing you wrote. A fictional GLaDOS monologue where she says that she remembers being a human. That was written before Portal 2 was ever mentioned. YOUPREDICTEDCAROLINE!!! or valve stole your idea, Either way, Edited May 25, 2011 by sailing101 Share this post Link to post

YOUPREDICTEDCAROLINE!!! or valve stole your idea, Either way, Me and about half the Portal fandom I got the idea from a piece of fanart I saw over a year before I even knew what Portal was, and it was one of the major theories of the Portal WMG page on TV Tropes. I think a few other people wrote stuff involving Human!GLaDOS, too... but yeah, I am incredibly happy that the theory is now confirmed Share this post Link to post

YOUPREDICTEDCAROLINE!!! or valve stole your idea, Either way, I was also a "follower" of the thought that GLaDOS was once human in a sense. I really didn't know much about Portal at the time, and honestly, I didn't have any actual arguments for it. I just had liked to believe that, as well as that there was a deeper connection between GLaDOS and Chell. My relationship theory was pretty farfetched, though, thinking back. Valve totally stole our ideas ;D /shot I'm also quite happy the theory's been confirmed. x3 Share this post Link to post

The human!GLaDOS theory was the only one I ever really followed And that Chell was an employee of Aperture, I still maintain that one. ... I also hold that she will still appear in Ep3, as another pawn of the G-man. -yawns- Still need to work out ideas for a prequel/sequels to the fic, and the long-dead Hypothesis... Hopefully we'll see a decrease in the pairing centric Portal fics and see people doing some character studies or something, the Portal cast is amazing for that. Share this post Link to post
Posted May 25, 2011 well, her acronym name did have Genetic Lifeform in it... I think pretty much everyone that delved deeper into Portal suspected a human element to GLaDOS... Share this post Link to post
Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) For those of you who are interested, Volume 1 of the soundtrack has been released. :3 And it's freeeee~ *flails* Ok, anyway, I started my second run-through yesterday and...now that I kinda remember what to, it's kinda sad how long it took me to figure out some of the tests the first time around. |D EDIT: Oh yeah, is it just me or does the companion cube sing? ._.

Posted May 25, 2011 YAAAY SOUNDTRACK! That just made my day. I currently can't play because of grades. If you see me playing, tell me to get my butt off. Share this post Link to post
Posted May 25, 2011 I'm listening to it now, and the sound is great~! I know I'll be having this on repeat for a long time! And thanks to Valve for making it free~ ^^ Share this post Link to post
Posted May 25, 2011 Ohsquee soundtrack! Also, Ohsquee x2. I've been trying to find that "I Saw a Deer Today" song for awhile. I didn't know it was called that. The ringtones are making me wish I had a phone, just so I could use those. :'3 Share this post Link to post

Posted May 30, 2011 I could never get through myself. Be it difficulty or lazyness you can decide. However I watched the walkthrough. Pretty epic. I mean pretty DAMN epic. GoW series is still my favourite but Portal + sequel comes close. Share this post Link to post
