@ImNotFunny541 Portal 2 works as an ending, but Valve didn't make it to where there couldn't be anything else. It could be a Prequel(different character or Chell). It could be a Sequel(different character or Chell). It could take place at the same time as Portal 1(different character). It could take place at the same time as Portal 2(different character). It could take place between Portal 1 & 2(different character). etc. We've heard from multiple sources at different times that certain people involved with the first 2 games(I'm sure even people who weren't)are interested in making a third game.

@@model7494But the Portal side is fully finished, the rest of the world had no access to Aperture's tech. There is physically no way to shoehorn in another game without it not making any fucking sense.
I wonder what plot Portal 3 would have. Since GLaDOS let Chell go, at least one of the two couldn't be involved. I kind of like the thought of a sort of stealth shooter where Chell fights the Combine with only her portal gun, but I'm not sure if that would really be Portal anymore and not another Half Life 2 spinoff.
I always thought of it to be a robot test. In single player you'd play as a robot who, half way through, goes corrupt. the robot realizes how bad glados is, and tries to escape.
It’s really because if you’ve noticed, valve stops games after the sequel and sometimes they will do a prequel, look at team fortress, half-life, and portal, so if we see another game, it’s gonna be a prequel
Im perfectly fine with a prequel. I don't know many people who are into Portal because of the phenomenal gameplay. I know a lot of people like the simplicity and flow the games have, but most of the fans are in it because of the lore. We need the lore. It's like our crack lol
valve has a policy or something where all the developers get to choose what they want to work on. So if the they don't want to make a new portal they won't, or if they don't want to make a new tf2 update, they won't etc. the idea is that if you're forced to work on something you don't care about, it won't be as good.
exactly theyre like "the real reason is because this guy said a joke and the real reason is because this guy said a joke and the real reason is because this guy was like "oh no it was a joke" and the real reason is that there wasn't enough devs wanting to make it
*_Well, most of Valve's games have so far stopped a "2". Maybe they will deliver an "Orange Box 2", with all the 3's in it. But NOT Half-Life 3, as we are still waiting for Half-Life 2: Episode 3._*
Even if the people wanted to make it, there’s still a big issue: Valve has leaned more towards VR games like HL Alyx, and portal in vr would likely be a nightmare for motion sickness. They’d either need to wait for more advanced tech or just stick to traditional gaming
We ARE gonna get a movie called "Portal still alive". This movie was supposed to be brought to theaters in 2022 but it didnt. And it could take a very long time before it will. Why? The movie was already confirmed in 2013. Damn. We have been waiting for this movie since FNAF came out.
I think the reason why is because GLaDOS just wants her gone and chell has her freedom which it makes no sense for her to return to that hell of a place considering they now have Atlas and P-Body that were invented as robotic test subjects.
@@mohepicpro7790 portal 2 has already been confirmed to take place way after portal 1, the writers said that portal 2 takes place so far in the future that the events of half life are no longer relevant.
Although Portal 3 isn't coming out, Portal Revolution did come out. It's a DLC for Portal 2 on steam that includes an entirely new story and maps and graphics
Kinda true. I don't want to see people lose their jobs, but all I got out of this "real reason" is that they don't want to work, and Valve just said "ok then". I'd love to work at Valve where in order to get paid, I just have to say I don't feel like working 😅
Another thing is that portal 2 basically finished the series. Our goal was to escape this testing facility, and in the end, we make it. The only way a lot of people would want another game is if it focused on a new character, other than Chell.
I also think part of it is the lore. The 2 bots in the back (I forgot their names) were meant to replace human testing so it could also be because it’s oart of the lore
I cant imagine a Sequel to Portal 2. This Story is finished. But a Prequel to Portal 1, Maybe playing as Rattman and try to hide before Glados, would be very cool.
The reason is that the story is over. Chell got thrown out of Aperture, Wheatley is in space, GLaDOS forgave Chell (kind of), and Aperture completely phased out human tests.
Stupid healthy office culture. Where does Gabe Newell get off treating his developers like human beings instead of content buttons. In all seriousness, this makes a lot of sense. It's probably the reason that valves games are so beloved by fans, in order for a game to even be green lit, enough people have to be passionate about making it.
Like it or not valve is a tech company as well as a video game developer. Gabe himself said he makes games only when there is an innovative new techonology to build it around i.e. valve source engine or steam vr
While I think the story is wrapped up nicely in Portal 2, a Portal 3 may be interesting. I imagine you play as a combine officer who discovers the facility, eventually being trapped by GLaDOS and being forced to test like many others have.
I mean, come on. Who WOULDN'T want to make another portal game? It's so popular that someone literally published a fanfiction book to take the empty place where portal 3 should've been.
We need a prequal that gives insight into the story of GLaDOS and early Aperture Science! Kinda like that desk simulator, but with real story elements!
Portal 3 has happened it’s called portal revolution it’s free on the steam page. Now technically yes it is just a mod for portal 2 but the story is so good it’s basically portal 3 it even has some new machines in it
The story was intended to be left the way it is, Portal 2's ending will lose its meaning if we continue Chel's story. That said, there are some really good mods for Portal anyway, especially Portal Stories: Mel and Portal Reloaded (has a 3rd time dimension portal)
No portal 3 BUT a spin off without chell or something can be absolutely incredible, like mods did with : Portal Reloaded, or Portal Revolution or even better Portal stories Mel
I mean… we pretty much can’t go back into aperture science labs. We would piss off GLaDOS so much if we went back just to prove that the Valve devs can count to 3
Honestly portal doesn’t need a third installment. The story was pretty well wrapped up with the release of Chell and the cooperative testing initiative which essentially means there isn’t much more story to tell after that. Maybe a prequel or in between story but who would be the main character? Besides there is still a strong modding community that has already made (or about to release)“portal 3” with their own characters and voice acting. I saw a trailer for one of these mods that takes place between 1&2 not to long ago and it looked awesome! I thought it was an actual valve trailer! In short valve doesn’t need to make a new portal game as the modders and even players creating custom test chambers on the steam edition create more than enough content to keep the game alive.
If they do make It I don't want it to be a sequel to 2. I feel like 2 ended in a nice little bow so if they do make a Portal 3 I hope they make it as a sort of prequel
It’s also the lack of reason for portal three to make sense it’s not as if our current protagonist would ever be inside aperture again anyway so unless they wanna introduce a new one it’s never happening. (Actually if we got a game with the portal games from GLaDOS‘s perspective that could be interesting)
If Valve bosses really wanted a Portal 3 they could have asked the community but ofc it would make them seem not good enough to make the game themselves so what stops them is basically staying official.
Yeah that checks out, it's the actual way of working from Valve, there aren't going to make you work on something you don't want to and if there isn't enough people on a project well you just can't make it
Took a really long time to say that the developers just dont want to make it
But wait! Portal Aperture Tag is probably portal3!
