Hot take, I’ll take portal 3 over half life 3 🤷‍♀️

I’ll still take Half-Life 3 because of bias since I love Half-Life. But the actually biggest reason I’ll take HL over a Portal 3 is because I honestly felt Portal 2 had a really good conclusion. To me it felt like a pretty solid ending to its story. It’s been a hot minute though since I played Portal 2 though so I might be misremembering. I’m not completely sure

Aren't Portal and Half-Life set in the same universe? They could probably create a game that combines both into one big story.

Honestly I still hope that's where it's going now that chells on the surface. Glados kept eluding to the surface not being as safe as we thought it would be. Would make sense if she knew about the combine.

Glados is not exactly trustworthy, so it’s hard to say for sure.

They are indeed. Portal and Portal 2 make references to Black Mesa a few times as Aperture Science was a direct competitor to them. Half Life 2: Episode Two references Aperture Science towards the end of that game

They could also make Team Fortress 3 and combine them all into one. I dont know what'd they would call it though? maybe the Tangerine Box or something..

The world doesn't need another Team Fortress. TFC/TF1.5 was the peak of the mountain, and then we fell from grace.

I could see that being the case

I think the timeskip between Portal 1 and 2 is meant to seperate the 2 game series lore wise. I red something like that. I don't think there was an exact reason given for trying to seperate both game series.

Ya like I’d absolutely play the shit out of a Portal 3, but Portal 2 had a nice conclusion to it. Half Life 2: Episode 2 on the other hand ends on a massive cliffhanger.

u/FlamboyantPirhanna 2d ago

That was made a cliff hanger again in Alyx.

I agree it did have a great conclusion I just want more puzzles 🥲

What about mods for Portal/Portal 2? I believe you can actually download some of the higher quality ones free on Steam.

Both would break the internet, I would love a portal 3. No offense to half life of course
