Anyone else playing this?
My thoughts:
-The voice acting and script are horrible. I understand that this was a small mod team, but cmon. These guys have to have known at least someone in their circle of friends with a decent sense of humor. It really feels like they tried too hard on this aspect and wound up screwing the proverbial pooch. The nonsensical dialogue is enough to make you want to turn the sound off.
-The actual gameplay is fun, but only because you get to fool around with portals again. If the original game were this hard and unintuitive it would not have near as many fans. I was stuck on the third chamber (the one with the big flight of stairs you cant climb) for hours, and I have played all the advanced and time trials from the first game. I know how to think with portals, so it ain’t my fault.
-Even after all of the above whining, I will still play it all the way through. That is a credit to the game dynamic. It’s so horrible frustrating at times, yet more rewarding than you would expect.
Anyone else have thoughts?
