Portal certainly was one of those games that gave off that “something is wrong” vibe in the best way possible
fun fact: you know removing the morality core in portal 1 causes glados to not be moral anymore, but each personality sphere actually removes personality traits from glados. which you can see in the lines
after curiosity core is incinerated, glados has no interest in talking or testing and just wants to kill you.
once you destroy the intelligence core, the only one left is anger. so all glados does is insult you and say things like "this is how stupid you sound"
it's pretty interesting to say the least.
Theory: the anger core got corrupted by glados and was originaly an emotion core
But in portal 2 it turns out glados was human aaaaand didn't want this
So her anger proved too much for the emotion core
The screaming girl could also be a child. Seeing as it was meant to happen on bring your daughter to work day.
Honestly, I think the Combine did try to get into Aperture, but GLaDOS was able to hold them off, but not before they got some technology from Aperture such as the energy pellets and turrets, however GLaDOS was able to prevent them from getting hold of the Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device, and other more secret technology.
I like this theory too. There's so many theories to look deeper in to.
She even mentions it (I think) in the portal section of Lego dimensions.
I generally thought the US government bought some Aperture technology. And that's how the combine got it.
What about the gravity gun
@@timothy9954 the gravity gun was created by Eli Vance, though interestingly the portal gun seems to use a similar-albeit weaker-method to pick up options without the option to launch options like the gravity gun.
Portal 1 and 2 scared me when I was a kid, despite watching videos about them before getting them, I was horrified there would be a jumpscare or a monster of some kind.. I love both games to death now, but I always felt like there was someone else there, not just the cameras, not the turrets, not Glados, not Wheatley, a third party watching me.
Same in a rat man room I had almost peed my pants
Same!!
@@cartayzcrazycircus omg, yeah, especially that one rat man den where if you are near one of the walls you hear his mumbling…
@@silent-hills the entire game in general but especially that specific room haunted me and still does to a degree
The IRS
I just love this kind of storytelling where there's all sorts of ominous references without specifically saying exactly what happened. You can tell there's a well defined story that the writers have thought up but they dole it out in small bite sized pieces. Jonathan Hickman's comics have kind of a similar feel.
Five night's at Freddy's moment
Blair Witch Project moment
I feel like it was a missed opportunity not calling the sections "Aperture Labs". You have the surface, complete with flowery fields and rusty metal shed; the upper levels where GLaDOS has control; then the bottom levels where Old Aperture lays in ruins.
They run out of money to Hire Tousands of Maintenance Workers. Unlike Black mesa Using Securities to Maintenancing and Fixing Stuffs.
Dude just that opening line hits hard, Portal is so damn creepy
Portal is amazing.
@@Sacrow im quite late but i honestly consider Portal a bit, well, unusual. Especially as it is canon in half life lore despite aperture being such a comedic company that just happens to have some of the best scientists on board.
It is always interesting to me that two people can do a reading of the same iceberg, and you can walk away with a great yet unique experience. Well done.
there are early animation tests of glados, and her arms weren't 'bound' like her final animations, and it shows that her 'chest' faces the ground, like she's arching her back.
24:21
I think that the story Wheatley gives is meant to foreshadow GLaDOS and her history as Caroline. Cave and his staff forced Caroline into GLaDOS and she eventually remembers it. The "screams" could have been the hostility that GLaDOS had initially when she was turned on due to her being confused and scared as to what she made.
It's possible that GLaDOS did initially have memory of her time as Caroline when she was first turned on. Her fear and rage at being forced to become GLaDOS is what caused her to become hostile as the staff is who hurt her. This could have been done with other staff, too.
It's possible that some of the staff caught on that she was attacking people due to her past memories and attempted to delete or bury her memories of Caroline to curb her desire to kill people. They succeeded and GLaDOS forgot Caroline, but her hatred of humans and need to kill lingered, thus causing her to continue murdering people but no longer really knowing why.
Portal is how to make a horror game without SPOoOoOky monsters or HoOoOrifying jump scares
The main thing I learned from this iceberg is that Rattmann is a real one
same
I can tell this video was recorded before the release of Aperture Desk Job
@Cloudify The Cave Johnson theory...
25:06
my theory is that glados sees you enter these rooms, and decided to lock it up when you left because she doesn't want you in there.
(she does have cameras, and could sense where we were in the first game without them)
Portal is probably the first liminal space video game
For real.
*cough cough* Silent Hill
The Half-Life series is full of liminal spaces, so Portal isn't even the first Valve game to use them.
@@CubicApocalypse128 Portal is more of a liminal space than Half-Life though, since you at least meet actual people in Half-Life, and you aren't alone in a bleak facility that heavily gives off that "creepy Source games" vibe (mostly due to the uniqueness of the "low-quality" creepy Source lighting and texturing like in GMod).
Doom is also t3chnically a liminal space
Not chapter one nor the hell chapters
But the second one: the shores of hell
Wich shows hells corruption of human structures
Morphing things around.
Needlesly long hallways
Concrete Walls moving (in knee deep in the dead the walls where sporting a more sci-fi look and probably had circuits in them)
Hell on earth is even more noticable
With the ceiling of a building crumbled to the floor and a house that sunk to sewer level
I consider the Companion Cube dead bodies theory to be bs, as MatPat says the bodies would not be emancipated by a fizzler, as they are organic, this being the reason you have to burn the cube. The thing is, in Portal 2, you meet 3 more companion cubes in Chapter 2 Chamber 7, and GLaDOS fizzles 2 or 3 depending on if you do the achievement or not. No bodies!
makes sense
36:15 i remember the line being “the surge of emotion that shot through me when i saved your life just now taught me an even more valuable lesson: where Caroline lives in my brain” is that just me or???
I’ve played portal since I was atleast 5, and I’ve made comics and drawings and notes and stories all about the characters, and including theories and backstories, and this has really helped ! Thank you!
dude I loved this video! Portal is one of my favorite video game series of all time. I love the eerie atmosphere it gives off. I was always intrigued by the mysteries that layed beneath the surface. I don't think I'll ever get enough of creepy Portal content, it just make some sad that Valve is not into releasing any games right now unfortunately :/
#keepportalalive
Here's one thing that would've never caused both games to happen: Not having a neurotoxin generator. Genuinely if that had never existed then when the scientists opened GLaDOS up for the first time they would've just shut her down, put on the cores, woke her up, and now there's literally nothing she can do.
If Chell is one of the scientists' kids who was presenting a potato battery on bring-your-daughter-to-work-day, how did she get into the relaxation vault?
I thought Portal 1 took place shortly after the neurotoxin attack on that very day and Rattmann only pushed her name to the top of the list of test subjects and then put her back in stasis _after_ the first game. Not that he put a child in a relaxation vault and then survived inside Aperture for multiple years until Chell was grown up
I have thought about this actually. I'm not sure how exactly it all works.
Chell was just really overqualified for the potato presentation, but they still made her do it anyways
The parents theory could actually be the reason why GlaDOS freaked out, even with the Morality cores attached. Caroline could have put her in the care of a trusted employee, given the line "Science has agreed with your mothers decision to leave you on a doorstep."
Cave was never a family person. Caroline knew that, but when true morality hit her, being forced into GlaDOS and seeing her own daughter under another's care. Psychotic break.
Yeah, I've read tons of different theories related to Chell's parents. I always liked the idea that it was Caroline and Cave.
The parents theory is bullcrap, makes no logical sense, and would make the story narratively massively shallow. I cannot comprehend why anyone holds to this.
@@BabyCharmander not a fan either, but there is a lot of things that support the theory.
@@d3sp3r4t3 There really truly is not. Two white people cannot magically produce a Japanese/Brazilian child.
You can disprove it very easily, Chell is a mix of Brasilian and Japanese, she can't be their child because of her ethnicity, unless maybe adopted...
Maybe the combine leaves them alone because the only thing they do is torture humans
A bit like a corporate partner
I've never played Portal or Portal 2, but I have a deep appreciation for them. I played the Portal level on Lego Dimensions before it stopped working.
What do you mean stopped working?
@@lord_egg I think our disc is broke.
tbh i’m not a fan of the caroline and cave being chell’s family theory, but it is very possible.
i’m just gonna add something to that.
we all saw chell’s potato battery project thingy and we all saw it is enormous. her project was different from the other kids’ projects..
now, i saw someone managing to read what the other writings on her project said. (the ones on the right)
it says “a secret ingredient from daddy’s office”
now we don’t know who chell’s father is, but..
cave was known for being, well.. cave. he didnt mind doing inhumane things for science and i bet he wouldn’t mind adding something special to chell’s potato battery thingy in order to make it outstanding.
another good point is ever since glados found out about caroline, glados’ approach/attitude towards us, chell, did a whole 180, that’s without a doubt.
in the end, glados stated that killing chell would be hard.
how is that?
chell was literally standing in front of her, possibly injured, tired and without any weapon. the room she was in had a non-portal surface.
she could’ve killed her in a second.
now, the turret opera.
the whole thing sounds like something a mother would say to her kid.
last, but not least, the song which was supposed to be an easter egg, i think.
the name is “don’t say goodbye”
ellen (VA of glados) and her husband made it together for an easter egg, but it never made it into the game.
glados sounds very motherly in the song as well.
5:24 in portal 2 concepts, some of the cords or something on glados were detached to form arms, basically confirming it.
I've been thinking that G-man is an aperture employee. Black mesa and Aperture always seemed to be at war with eachother. Can't work out why he'd want gordan or alyx's help.. But it's something I can't shake.
I would love to see someone explore that train of thought further.
He might've possibly been one of the "lab boys" cave speaks of, or he could have given cave the hint about moon rocks being conductive to portals. He could've told him about the chances of cancer too, but that's not Gmans style
Interesting theory however with portal releasing in 2007, years after half life 1 and 2, you'd think the g man character, after appearing in multiple half life games by this point, already had his secret backstory in place behind the scenes by valve, this would have to suggest that through years of half life games that valve actually had no idea what to do with the backstory of g man and didn't have one, and only decided to go down the aperture labs path as a huge afterthought
Leadhead made a great video about portal and in it he points out that there were some pipes blocking the way after in the incinerator room and that other test subjects must have attempted to escape the same way chell does but died because the pipe blocked them. Maybe those previous subjects were previous clones of chell?
Well, as of the release of Aperture Desk Job, (Spoilers) we know that Cave Johnson is indeed "alive". With his concusses stuck inside a giant immovable computer head. He also asked you to kill him in the game, so that it sucks.
It's not cannon lmao
that's like another universe isn't it
The darkest part of portal is, of course, Hoopy the Hoop. A true evil mastermind.
It was all a dream and Chell wakes up on her birthday to find that her parents have made cake
That was one hell of a dream then
Chell wakes up
"hey, you're finally awake, got caught in the imperial ambush, same as us, and that thief, over there..."
bruh def saving this for my lunch break tomorrow lmaooo lets go
Still blows my mind to this day that this of all series made It Into lego dimensions over starwars and marvel and also brought back the Idea of cave Johnson being In a companion cube even If Its for a one off rescue mission
Disney own Star Wars and Marvel and put them into the Disney Infinity series, so there was zero chance of those two franchises being put into Lego Dimensions.
Been looking forward to this since the cyberpunk live stream. I love your vids, keep up the great work man
Glad you enjoy them and thank you for the support.
When it comes to the head crab, do you put it past Valve to update their game to put in assets and then another update to remove said assets to make us the gamers seem schizophrenic?
Both portal game are both unsettling when you focus on the surroundings and details in the games. A business man who used to sell shower curtains starts fucking around with science leading to his and many others death leaving behind the shell of what used to be what scientists researched and tested and the only thing that remains is a single test subject and the robots that inhabit the abandoned facility
A summary of portal:
You play as Shell, the silent monster that’s trapped in hell and your only friend is an inanimate object that’s actually the most important character in this entire game. After combusting Ms. Malicious potatoes you get knocked out and dragged back down to hell. Portal 2, You meet the Tyrant Core a.k.a wheat. After a while you meet the corpse of Glados who isn’t very glad to be alive. After a while you get to the control room and make wheat take control of everything but he decides to be a douche canoe and not let you escape. Then Unglados shows off her Pickle Rick cosplay and you both fall a long fall and snap your neck on planks. YOUWAKEUP! Your looking for your autotune potato and save a defect sentry from death. He tells you about how Prometheus got his liver stolen by Mario and it never returned. Later, you find your prized potato getting it’s starchy liver eaten by birds. You impale the potato to your gun and go through the rest of the game. You make it back to the control room with Tyrant Core stealing Glados’ “unlethal” neurotoxin and snorting it all up and convincing you to do it. Potato helps Shell tack 3 special cores to Wheat: Hillbilly, Collage Professor, and *SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACCCE.* after Tyrant Ted breaks more of the facility you get the brilliant idea to attach a portal to the moon and everything gets sucked in. You hold on to wheat and after some more help from Glados who’s glad she got her body restored. Makes Wheat fly forever in the far far infinite reaches of space. But before he got launched Space Chimp who i mentioned earlier finally got his wish and will forever be happy in the depths of space. After that Glados tells you to politely get out of her life forever. And one beautiful Turret Orchestra later you’re free and back into the light of the outside world. Oh but before you leave, Glados gives you Companion Cube as a go away gift. And they lived happily ever after.
THE END
More accurate than wikipedia
Fun Fact: Portal 1 happens at the same time as Half-Life.
Portal 2 is supposed to happen 50,000 years after, that is why we don't see the effects of the Combine occupation.
Actually it takes place 99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999-
Cave Johnson was actually uploaded to a giant statue of himself in desk job. So he was probably not uploaded to a companion cube.
The companion cube theory was proven incorrect in Portal 2 as Wheatley refers to shaking skeletons out of stored testing chambers :)
24:34 All I could think is Weathley saying "you have brain damage you can't read you shouldn't interact with your paradox self?"
I love your voice, how you explain and the music. All it perfect I'm a fan of the portal sequel i din't really watch the story of half life i don't if it worth it for learn more of portal.. but anyway continue your great job !!
I really love the theory that everything is alive in the facility. It's like being in nature in a world that's completely alien. I wonder if that's how GLaDOS feels about earth.
babe wake up, sacrow made another iceberg video!
The fact that the "Cave Johnson is alive/in a cube" theories are actually canon, kinda... If you know, you know 😉🗿
That "hell" creepypasta gives me nestolgia, I remember listening to someordinarygamers' narrating it
I love portal 1 because its disturbing ambience
Also, I guess you hadn't played the Portal: Desk Job game released on Steam at the time, huh? It actually adds some credit to some of the entries involving Cave Johnson, such as him being alive and his mind being put into a machine. Not a Companion Cube though, but a statue of himself.
I was gonna say the exact same thing
Well the original P2 beta idea was to have him be in a companion cube in a pit but Desk Job made it more realistic by making his eternal prison actually big enough to store his consciousness (given the era)
As it was said the original idea was to have him put into a companion cube. So.
idk if its considered "canon", but cave actually ends up inside a metallic head in aperture desk job, and spends his days among the turlets
I still love that end scene where she's talking about how important of a lesson she learned from Caroline, she actually sounds slightly happy, maybe, and she's speaking in a slightly higher tone
And immediately after deleting her she goes back to her monotone voice
44:57 oh my god, they reused this for aperture desk job?!? I had no idea it was such an old concept
37:52 this has almost certainly been pointed out already, but her being guided by "Virgil" is an obvious parallel to Dante's Inferno. pretty cool.
42:34 On the contrary, I find it comforting knowing I'm being watched by people who bring me no apparent harm. Most of the panels are pretty docile and at times act very funnily.
Yay I can't wait to watch this later
What if portal three is f-stop so we can see the enviroment of early aperture.
in the final rat man den when hearing the gibberish also hear "ITS YOUR FAULT!"
Chellobrine is the funniest shit i've seen today
When i play portal I remember that according to the lore someone is following me and i get creeped out
It was not Doug Rattmann over the other side of the wall. It was a Mumble Rapper.
45:30 is true its was confirmed in aperture desk job
I've never played Portal but after someone made that comparison to glados years ago, that's all I ever see when I see her since 🤣
25:50 in lego dimensions Johnson's conscience into a Core
"this song makes you feel alone and helpless. i like that" are you ok
Well done
Thank you.
(Includes spoilers for Aperture Desk Job)
Cave Johnson being an AI was re-used at the ending of Aperture Desk Job. There, he also wants the player to kill him, and feels good while doing so.
I was going to include aperture desk job in this video but couldn't get the game in time. It's still a really fun experience.
You should probably press enter before telling the spoiler so people have to click the “see more” to see the spoiler and not right next to the spoiler warning
@@ass4ssinang3l97 Thanks! I'll edit the comment to do so.
My theory is that there ARE people in the cubes, but not in the way we've been thinking. On the second attack, it was bring your CAT to work day. Glados proposes an experiment with cats and boxes to acquire neurotoxin. Stop right there. That's Schrodinger's Cat. We've got something to work with right there. Now. How do you keep a cat, within a box, in a quantum state between life or death? In this day, it's just a hypothetical. But in Aperture, we take shit to the extreme. A computer is often box shaped. Let's put a cat's brain in a computer. So my theory is that the weighted storage cubes and the companion cubes are like, an advanced form of supercomputer made for storing someone's brain. And I believe the hearts are a sort of marking system, to mark down important ones, and the regular cubes were probably blanks. At one point. Glados probably put all the cats in companion cubes, as that very thing was her way of getting what she wanted, it was a momentous occasion. Whereas the blanks probably had the dead scientists' brains stored in them so she could do whatever she wanted to them after. Again. And again. And again. Now, you might have some questions about this theory. Like, why are the cubes so heavy? One. Advanced. Compacted. Supercomputer. Secondly. Aperture had reoccurring problems with Black Mesa stealing their tech. I wouldn't put it past Cave Johnson to just come up with the solution of making everything that's important weigh a metric fuck ton. That is so hilariously absurd it has got to be the actual answer.
(Edit)
Also, I'm pretty sure the intelligence core just explained word for word some of the tools they probably used on Carolyn in the process of transferring her consciousness, so yay, manmade horrors beyond comprehension.
Aperture should have experimented on maybe Death row inmates or something
The only issue with the Companion Cube theory, is that you emancipate the cube in Portal 2
that was great :)
Thank you.
watching this at 1 am was a bad idea
"nature is coming directly in them"
Underrated
Ty
I don't know if it's canon, but in aperture desk job, it's shown that Cave Johnson was actually transferred to a giant robotic head. And ends up wanting to die.
Definitely not lmao

We should get another game using the F-Stop mechanic. It looks super cool.
What do you mean
Problem i have with the companion cube theory is he seem to not play the game as a simple debunk is by putting the cude though the barrier which don't effect human tissue
And pat said if you put the cube though the barrier a human would drop out which never happens in 1 or 2
And glados mocking the cude can be 2 things
1.refencing rat man
2.how she had feelings for cave but her now being a emotionless robot made her loose her feelings and anything referred to it like the heart on the cube bring hate
The companion cube specifically doesn't have a barrier in either room that you use them. Though I highly doubt a human body would fall out. That was be a little too dark even for valve.
@@Sacrow in portal 2 glados destroys the cube if you try to take it with you that dose same effect as a barrier would
And is proven glados can't get rid of a human body
Also of you watch matpat video carefully he contradicts himself so many times and this was the era matpat fans noticed he didn't d well script wise especially with fnaf which why the respond videos that came
But he did soon improve and became less contradictory (despite still some bad theory's or errors that was in his own proof)
But ye no way the cude would have bodys also this was under caves programming and even the cave theory shows he is crazy with pointless researching (seriously a very funny, dark and amazing theory) he won't reuse bodys for tests if they die... They die and binned like any other test subjects.... Unless they are worth researching for nonsense
"Please be advised that a noticeable taste of blood is not part of any test protocol but is an unintended side effect of the Aperture Science Material Emancipation Grill, which may, in semi- rare cases, emancipate dental fillings, crowns, tooth enamel, and teeth."
And straight from the portal wiki
An unforeseen consequence of repeated use of the Emancipation Grill has shown to emancipate teeth, tooth enamel, crowns, fillings, and ear canals
Safe to say, considering it can dissolve certain bodily tissues, the body would be most likely burned in the cube, along with the cube itself, if there were a body inside.
Also, the "screaming cube voice" sound MatPat cites only plays when you fizzle a *radio*, not a cube.
Portals levels are like liminal spaces
4:40 there are black mesa logos that appear on the screen
4:02
A user's name is in the bottom-right corner.
You need to delete it for account hijacking, and other bad stuff.
You probably need to edit it out.
however Cave Johnson did get put in a computer and that is confirmed in Aperture Desk Job the Steam Deck short Valve made
I assume that aperture desk job is non cannon or this video came out before that game. Just wondering though.
Yes.
This was made pre-Aperture Desk Job wasn’t it? Cuz we know now Cave is a giant head
new video let's goooo
Let's go!
The fact that in that iceberg, GLaDOS was spelled "GladOS" just irks me a bit.
I see this video was made before aperture desk job
Strange concept for an iceberg video but a really great video nonetheless.
To clarify,chell isn't the daughter of cave johnson and caroline
We do what we must because we can
45:35 Aperture Desk Job?
"GladOS"
I love the video
valve games for life
1:38 walls made of glass??? Those are usually called WINDOWS!
So F-Stop became Superliminal essentially?
I swear, I've actually seen the Headcrab in portal 2 before. In one of the elevator shafts. I swear I've seen it everytime I've played the game. Huh. Could this be the mandela effect I wonder?
I got an AD about ainal cancer WTF?
doesnt black mesa exist in portal and IFFFF portal 3 happens i want a gordon chell interaction
5% facts, 95% this is extremely terrifying if you're afraid of lasers - as turrets use lasers - fuel for nightmare, and terrifying if you're afraid of heights as you have to jump around, nightmare fuel if you're afraid of electronics as the game features a radio. What drugs are you on? You can get nightmares if you're afraid of chairs as the game has some
the combine theory makes no sense though, as portals are literally EXACTLY what the combine are looking for, they would have not struck a deal and immediately just stolen the teleportation tech and blown up earth
my theory is aperture was just that well hidden
