Being someone that isn’t all that patient when it comes to puzzles in video games, I actually managed to get through the puzzles in Portal relatively easily. If these two new Portal 2 videos are anything to go by, however, I’m going to have a much harder time with Portal 2′s puzzles.
The two videos show off the two new puzzle mechanics introduced in Portal 2, the “Faith Plate” and “Repulsion Gel”. Faith Plate looks like a fairly accessible addition, but when you combine it with Repulsion Gel? Things get considerably more complicated.
Don’t get me wrong, that doesn’t necessarily turn me off to the game. In fact, I think it’s a good thing — one could argue that Portal was actually a little too easy. What with the introduction of Repulsion Gel and the Faith Plate, plus the news that Portal 2 will be significantly longer than the first game, I think gamers are going to have a much more quality experience in Portal 2 that should challenge you, but not frustrate you too much.
Sorry, went off on a bit of a tanget there. You’re probably just here for videos! Here they are:
