some of yall here probably can say you were too young when the games initially came out. i do not have that excuse. like portal 2 came out when i was 11 and i might've had the toxic yuri fly over my head and gotten frustrated and given up trying to solve the puzzles at that age but theoretically i could have played portal when the series was current.

My most distinct memory of Portal was playing through the entire thing in one sitting when I was like 10 or smt and then developing a raging fever the next day. That was the first and last time I ever played Portal 1. I then went on to buy Portal 2 a couple years later
