I love how this core throws you under the bus immediately but seems like he actually likes doing stuff with you and views you as an actual partner in making the turret
At the end, I REALLY love the flawless cut of Johnson going "Hey hey HEY! I can't talk over the sound of you shooting me!" Then he recounts what he spoke about, and flawlessly continues...
i remember hearing that that type of code was being developed by valve while developing hl2 but it had come out too soon and they couldn't implement it, but they could add it into hl: lost coast, when you shoot a seagull the fisherman will berate you for killing it, then go back to what he was saying. EDIT: example: th-cam.com/video/C4TC8r2NGHQ/w-d-xo.html
@@Bushmills21 tbh he has done voices in so many shows and movies, i really doubt he needs to look for work, he just does whatever seems fun and diverse to him
The thought that Cave Johnson is just burried at the bottom of the whole facility destined to live forever and the only form of entertainment is singing with turret toilets is chilling. (Hope it will be somehow in the next portal game)
Out of all the possible forms they could have chosen for AI Cave Johnson, they chose a fucking giant metal head in the shape of his pretending to be a stone statue. That is perfect
It's almost like Valve has captured the most hilarious writers, gifted programmers, brilliant musicians that ever made games....and have them trapped, working in a salt mine somewhere, only letting them use time to make a game on their coffee break.
more like the Writers, Musicians, Programmers and Artists are allowed to do whatever, and if it doesn't result in a product, that's fine, they can just move on to the next thing. It's why they "don't make games anymore;" they do but there doesn't seem to be much pressure to actually put a product out. Add in the fact that valve never releases things unless it's "finished" (if you don't believe me consider the fact that they have a habit of throwing things out and starting over- HL, HL2, Portal 2, TF2) and you can see why they don't really release much to the public these days.

What an experience. Like seriously, what an experience. I can't believe a simple showcase of the Steam Deck's controls let us in on what happened with Cave _(not to mention, he's probably in a cave now)_ Johnson. It might not be Portal 3, but DAMN is it the closest it's ever felt in years. I hope we get more from the Portal series, but knowing Valve, yeah.
@@akjackhd5804 I'm pretty sure this takes place in one of the many alternate universes we see in the PTI. It just doesn't line up well with the events of Portal 2, with minor details being wrong.
So, Cave Jhonson actually didn't die, he was just abandoned after killing his engineers when he got mad while his mind was transported to a supercomputer, just like Caroline and GlaDOS... except, he acutally KEEP his own mind and... was left behind, abandoned, suffering alone. And now, according to this game events, his mind is still trapped in the supercomputer (now powered up infinetly by a probably fusion core made by a praying mantis civilization) and has connected it to the "toilet turrets" and sings with them... for eternity, in some cave in some place down underground the old Aperture facilities. (Maybe he is the reason why the turrets sing in the first place??? thought in Portal normal turrets sings and talks in feminine voices, while this old turrets sing in manly deep voices. Maybe it's just a Caroline and Jhonson thing... to sing opera songs and has transmitted to the turrets in their control... that would actually be really wholesome) Yup, that's Portal Lore for you, and i love it.
The part with Johnson telling you to kill him sounds a lot like the Portal 2 cut content where you find Johnson in a cube. I really like how they’re making things like that still canon in a way.
@@henrynelson9301 The lead writer of portal 2 said that for the time being, this is not canon, and considering the man mantis and the mantis man, this is probably Cave Prime

@@ultmateragnarok8376 because they were Aperture scientists. Where as Black Mesa takes their jobs seriously yet result in disastrous consequences, Aperture kinda just bumbles around and surprisingly, even the dumb ideas work.

Actually, I hate to bring up Portal stories :Mel, but technically they already had Turrets before in the timeline, since Portal stories Mel was during the beginning of aperture innovators, and is canon I believe
I love how we as the player keep failing at everything, even failing at killing Cave. Also the praying mantis society was hilarious and awesome and now I wanna know what that glowy green thing is
The praying mantis worship Cave Johnson and foresaw his death by toilet in the prophecies so they built that back up power source that is the thing of glowing green.
The mantis society figured out electricity from the light bulb. They created a perpetual power source for thier society. That Cave destroyed. Cave is trapped, living forever at the bottom of a hole, with a turret choir.
It was a fusion reactor. A type of super energy generator that is usually very unstable without proper housing but it seems the manti stabilized it and now it powers Cave probably for hundreds of years as a conservative estimate
This can be actually semi canon. You see somewhere in development of portal 2 there was a concept that Cave Jonson’s mind was placed into a cube and was left in the lowest point in salt mines plugged in and we killed him.
It's also (kind of) a tech demo of Source 2. I know we already got that in Alyx, but this one is the complete package in everything. Lighting, physics in small details, water etc.
25:21 I love how -Grady- Gary finally got that robot arm tattoo he was talking about while we were testing the Turret Mk 0.3 in the end. This is why I want Valve back, man. They pay so much attention to detail that all other developer studios wouldn't even care about. *I WANT MY HALF LIFE 3, VALVE!!!*
It’s nice seeing actual people, albeit mainly silhouettes of people, in the Aperture facility. I love the being alone in a abandoned salt mine with nothing but AIs feel of the other two portal games but this, with warmer lighting too, is a welcoming change :) I also, like every other AI introduced in portal, really like Grady. Love his no fucks given tone of speech
Cave Johnson asking you to kill him is definitely inspired by Epistle 3, where Dr. Breen asks you to kill him to end his suffering edit: also holy crap just realized the ending confirmed Cave Johnson is basically.. still alive
20:34 um I think he’s already dead because of the illness he has that case him to die and they just builded a statue of him ho made the first IOS device on earth .plus where did they god the head part of the statue from ??? I mean that looks to be the head of the statue but wait am I hearing a recording device thing coming from his office ???
i love how all aperture tech seems to be musically inclined? either good, or just more likely to enjoy doing musical things (i knows its just valve having fun but still, its super cool either way, in game or irl)
grady may have lied and pinned all the blame on us for completely fucking destroying a massive underground warehouse that may have been one of the largest on earth, but actually going through real training just to be our parole officer was really cool of him. edit: i miss him

@@crippledanimator8197 imagine this is the combine prequel. After their city was destroyed, they modified prototype portal gun to look for a safer world. Some time later, they decide to conquer earth. They are the highest in the chain, and will never see the earth again because of work, so they just destroy it for (REDACTED)
Nah Aperture made shower curtains for the military, cave became millionare, cave invebted aperture science innovators, created a portal gun, turrets, gels and a lot of weird stuff, tested with the stuff waiting for the money to come without selling anything, cave almost ran out of money, cave boughts a lot of moon rocks and discovered they are poisonous and a really good portal conductor, he died of poisoning and was put into a giant head
@@Licht_Umbra actually the head thing is not part of the main continuity. In the infinite testing initiative a cage who survived mentioned the existence of multiverses. I assume desk job takes place in a universe where cave survives but loses his body and mind to science. The main continuity has signs that cave almost survived (the abandoned chassis in the multiplayer ending) but he most certainly didn’t. Otherwise you’re right on the money.
@@AnimatedTerror I think it could technically be possible, as we only hear of his death. I know Caroline is put into GLaDOS and not cave, though Cave could have been uploaded into the head during some top secret project or something. It is stated he was abandoned. Just someone who forgot a small chunk of portal lore adding his take though.
It's so nice at 0:48 to finally see other people in a portal game. Back in the 70's before things went to shit. Even if they're just in the background Edit: at 26:26 you can see he fell into the sealed off 1950's lab, evidenced by the sign in the background
I really want to believe that cave’s giant head later becomes the animal king turret. Only cave could be so confident as to become a giant leopard print robot with an army of worshipers.
And cave cube from a cut version of portal 2, and the cave core from lego dimensions that got sealed behind a wall, but those technically don’t count, and technically the cave head, cave cube, and cave core are all derived from the same exact scrapped concept
i really hope the reception of this small demo can prove that portal is worth continuing, they have the talent and a fanbase who loves what they do, this honestly feels like a proof of concept for a portal 3 game with the main villain being cave johnson: the founder of portal so much potential man
unfortunately gaben would rape any employee who dares release anything. idk why but they have internal assholes who fire anyone who tries to get anything done.
Fun fact : The "Cave Johnson immortal computer" thing was supposed to be a scene in Portal 2 where you unplug the life out of Cave Johnson to go on in the level but it was removed because it was a bit dark.
@@Red_Ryry don’t forget the boyband who aren’t picky when it comes to women, the parents of chell, loads of other boys, ponies, there’s a pony farm too… all down there in the pit. Definitely not a lie.
0:48 The number of Easter Eggs in the intro is incredible and one that I instantly noticed was the giant chicken which comes from an old portal 2 prototype where I was planning a level where due to Aperture's experimentation with chickens, we would have to fight a giant chicken as the boss of that level
Coolest thing for me that for the first time we can actually see PEOPLE. Not robots possessing minds or cyborgs. Actual Aperture workers. I wonder if we can use no clip to get a more detailed view on their models
The Lore implied by this game is staggering. If we take everything we know from Portal 1 + 2, it suddenly becomes extremely tragic. If we ever do get an official Portal 3, it's going to absolutely wreck fans of the series.
@@fyodorshestakov6462 Nah dude it could of been a joke game without explicitly telling us what happend to cave jonson or any of the lore implications. This game is basically the origin story of the turret.
its actually pretty impressive that valve chose to bring back j.k. simmons to play cave johnson again in a 30 minute long tech demo for their steam deck. gotta love their respect for the franchise still going strong
You just got to love the writing in this, "Remember, the important thing is to have fun, otherwise it's just an add-on, it's been a really bad year" Clearly written by devs who are are little too self conscious about software development (and hardware development come to think of it)
Grady is perhaps my favorite Aperture robot ever since Wheatley came to exist in Portal 2. I hope to see more of this large handed robot-ball, eventually.
5:12 that Mantis looks smart it's trying to start an electricity 9:56 Now it became a town 15:31 It turns into a city 25:12 Now it was destroyed because Cave Johnson's Robotic head fell
26:27 The power source is laying down next to the head as Marcos Cubilla said in a comment above, this power source is actually keeping Cave Jhonson alive.
I love the small detail of the buzzer on Cave Johnson's portraits constantly blinking 'cause Cave is trying to get his employees' attention, but no one wants to go up there.
He turned over evidence to convict loan sharks, I'm guessing he used money from them to be able to afford building the toilet turret as he says he was gonna use the money from cave to pay it back or he'd be in trouble
seeing how well the game is designed then seeing all those people in the credits and knowing this game is free regardless of if you bought their device or not is why valve will always be #1 for me. meanwhile companies like activison release the same game year after year using recycled assets and over priced microtransaction in a game that's broken at launch and filled with hackers yet still wanna charge full price years after the games launch.
Yeah man, some companies release the same games every year and others release no games or they release tech demos that either require you to buy a VR headset or are a nothing with no real reason to justify their existence. Valve is such a great company.
@@netwicks1126 At the very end of the credits orchestra the record player serves a pink colored desert. Obviously looks more like a pudding, but it can be the origin of the idea nonetheless. Friends gathering around and having cake in the deepest and darkest place in Aperture.
OMG! I just realized the ending was foreshadowed by Aperture's previous tech demo, the VR Hand Lab! At the end of that game, at the bottom of the bottomless pit, you can see Cave's giant metal head!
makes you wonder how much of the half life and portal lore is/was already written but they refuse to release it to public. MOST of the "late released" Tf2 weapons were already planned at release date.
In fact, much more was planned for that chicken, it would be the Boss of a level, a pity that now he is only there resigned somewhere underground in Aperture.
If a "simple" tech demo of the Steam Deck brought us this masterpiece playable short, i just can't imagine what Portal 3 would be like. I never loose the faith on VALVe, and i never will.
@@Paul_The_Writer Really, Valve as a whole has put a large amount of time and recourses into steam and hardware manufacturing as of late. I do believe that their IPs as a whole are important to valve, but TF2 is definitely “done”. If valve were to make something along the lines of a new TF2 update of any substance, it’d be through a new game, think TF2.5, TF:GO or something like that, not through an actual update; the code is far too spaghetti for that to be sustainable. Half Life & Portal games are however completely on the table, and given the goodwill (and by extension, Profit$) it earns them whenever they release a new one, I doubt they’re gonna stop until a proper conclusion is reached for the story. It just wouldn’t be worth it to permanently shelve them, from both a provider and consumer point of view. Valve, like all companies, needs money to function, after all they don’t want to end up like Aperture; so they put more stock in games that can sustainably make them money. TF2 is not one of those games anymore, CS:GO still is though, that’s why they put more focus on it. I still won’t forget them practically discontinuing the TF2 Comics, but I can forgive.
@@It-Will-All-Be-Okay-I-Promise True words. But come on. 5 years and nothing significant? Bots running rampant everywhere? Exploits left and right? Crappy cosmetics? Although I respect your opinion, they're not a small indie studio. They're a freaking multi-million, if not billion dollar corporation. They can surely do something else aside from updating the goddamn localisation files. And I bet all the remaining devs paid with half a bag of stale Doritos and a can of flat Pepsi have given up already. Also, if they plan to release TF2 on Source 2, then I will punch myself in the nuts and eat my socks.
@@Paul_The_Writer I mean, they COULD update TF2 for realsies, but what I mean is that from a business perspective it’s not “Sustainable”. Valve has always been a very “long term” company (investing into VR tech in like 2013 is one example of that) and part of that I believe is to focus on things that can give a sustainable profit in the long term; TF2 in its current form will not give a return, likely in the short term and long term, on the massive investment of time and money it would require to update and by extension navigate through its messy code, so it’s not sustainable and thus is discouraged by the “higher ups” (IE: people with more sway in the company). I sure as hell hope they release a TF3 or something of the sort in my lifetime, as it’s the only way they’ll make any new TF2 content, but before they do any of that I’d expect HL3/Portal3. No, I’m not joking, they probably have the story all mapped out by now so games in the “Black Mesa & Aperture” universe are being prioritized, this is also probably why they retconned cave to be alive and a big robot head in Aperture Desk Job, given the plot implications. If I’m completely and utterly off, I will ingest a leather shoe.
@@Paul_The_Writer CSGO and Dota fetch valve so much money it's obvious why they've let TF2 behind. If it had a massive esports scene too, I doubt it would be this ignored. I guess it also has to do with how valve is structured as a company.
1. this is a great way to teach inexperienced players how to control via gamepad. 2. if future games require gamepads with all the buttons and features, then many of us, including me, will need a new one.
i love how cave johnson's face is very clearly a nod to the portal 2 beta where cave johnson is a cube with sentience and he asks you to unplug him and kill him, only to use his dead cube body to solve a puzzle.
I'd be fine with this being canon because the Human Cave Johnson could have actually died from Moon rock poisoning, while this Data consciousness is just simply Data of his mind, not his actual soul just like how GLaDOS is AI too. 👍

I love how -Grady- Gary finally got that robot arm tattoo he was talking about while we were testing the Turret Mk 0.3 in the end.
This is why I want Valve back, man. They pay so much attention to detail that all other developer studios wouldn't even care about. *I WANT MY HALF LIFE 3, VALVE!!!*
So, good news.
It’s nice seeing actual people, albeit mainly silhouettes of people, in the Aperture facility. I love the being alone in a abandoned salt mine with nothing but AIs feel of the other two portal games but this, with warmer lighting too, is a welcoming change :)
I also, like every other AI introduced in portal, really like Grady. Love his no fucks given tone of speech

I really just want to shout out the phenomenal animators at Valve, Grady's hand is excellent.
animations I felt were the worst part about this. very clunky and not snappy at all. not comparable at all to other portal games

Cave Johnson asking you to kill him is definitely inspired by Epistle 3, where Dr. Breen asks you to kill him to end his suffering
edit: also holy crap just realized the ending confirmed Cave Johnson is basically.. still alive
Actually, killing cave johnson is a cut concept taken from portal 2, even the dialogue is similiar to that scene
20:34 um I think he’s already dead because of the illness he has that case him to die and they just builded a statue of him ho made the first IOS device on earth
.plus where did they god the head part of the statue from ??? I mean that looks to be the head of the statue but wait am I hearing a recording device thing coming from his office ???
@Nam Gge ye cave trying to take back control from glados would be good
it's not inspired by epistle 3. it's a cut joke from the original portal 2.

i love how all aperture tech seems to be musically inclined? either good, or just more likely to enjoy doing musical things

Nah
Aperture made shower curtains for the military, cave became millionare, cave invebted aperture science innovators, created a portal gun, turrets, gels and a lot of weird stuff, tested with the stuff waiting for the money to come without selling anything, cave almost ran out of money, cave boughts a lot of moon rocks and discovered they are poisonous and a really good portal conductor, he died of poisoning and was put into a giant head

@@Licht_Umbra actually the head thing is not part of the main continuity. In the infinite testing initiative a cage who survived mentioned the existence of multiverses.

The main continuity has signs that cave almost survived (the abandoned chassis in the multiplayer ending) but he most certainly didn’t. Otherwise you’re right on the money.
@@AnimatedTerror I think it could technically be possible, as we only hear of his death. I know Caroline is put into GLaDOS and not cave, though Cave could have been uploaded into the head during some top secret project or something. It is stated he was abandoned.

It's so nice at 0:48 to finally see other people in a portal game. Back in the 70's before things went to shit. Even if they're just in the background

The number of Easter Eggs in the intro is incredible and one that I instantly noticed was the giant chicken which comes from an old portal 2 prototype where I was planning a level where due to Aperture's experimentation with chickens, we would have to fight a giant chicken as the boss of that level
also the part where cave asks us to kill himself, it was an ending in f-stop
Another less subtle Easter Egg is the crates from Half-Life 2 at 0:43 being filled haphazardly, so in typical Aperture fashion.
The mantis army probably was the best easter egg. "You'll know when the test starts"
Can you name them all? I only noticed the silhouette of people...
Coolest thing for me that for the first time we can actually see PEOPLE. Not robots possessing minds or cyborgs. Actual Aperture workers. I wonder if we can use no clip to get a more detailed view on their models
The Lore implied by this game is staggering. If we take everything we know from Portal 1 + 2, it suddenly becomes extremely tragic. If we ever do get an official Portal 3, it's going to absolutely wreck fans of the series.

You just got to love the writing in this,
"Remember, the important thing is to have fun, otherwise it's just an add-on, it's been a really bad year"

No. It’s: “Remember, the most important thing is to have fun. On your own time before you come in, otherwise-uh-it’s just- it’s real bad here..”

nobody was convicted of anything!
He turned over evidence to convict loan sharks, I'm guessing he used money from them to be able to afford building the toilet turret as he says he was gonna use the money from cave to pay it back or he'd be in trouble
seeing how well the game is designed then seeing all those people in the credits and knowing this game is free regardless of if you bought their device or not is why valve will always be #1 for me.
meanwhile companies like activison release the same game year after year using recycled assets and over priced microtransaction in a game that's broken at launch and filled with hackers yet still wanna charge full price years after the games launch.
Yeah man, some companies release the same games every year and others release no games or they release tech demos that either require you to buy a VR headset or are a nothing with no real reason to justify their existence. Valve is such a great company.

I never loose the faith on VALVe, and i never will.
TF2 player here. I lost all hope in Valve long ago. They only care about CS:GO nowadays.
@@Paul_The_Writer Really, Valve as a whole has put a large amount of time and recourses into steam and hardware manufacturing as of late.
I do believe that their IPs as a whole are important to valve, but TF2 is definitely “done”. If valve were to make something along the lines of a new TF2 update of any substance, it’d be through a new game, think TF2.5, TF:GO or something like that, not through an actual update; the code is far too spaghetti for that to be sustainable.
Half Life & Portal games are however completely on the table, and given the goodwill (and by extension, Profit$) it earns them whenever they release a new one, I doubt they’re gonna stop until a proper conclusion is reached for the story. It just wouldn’t be worth it to permanently shelve them, from both a provider and consumer point of view.
Valve, like all companies, needs money to function, after all they don’t want to end up like Aperture; so they put more stock in games that can sustainably make them money. TF2 is not one of those games anymore, CS:GO still is though, that’s why they put more focus on it.
I still won’t forget them practically discontinuing the TF2 Comics, but I can forgive.
@@It-Will-All-Be-Okay-I-Promise True words. But come on. 5 years and nothing significant? Bots running rampant everywhere? Exploits left and right? Crappy cosmetics?
Although I respect your opinion, they're not a small indie studio. They're a freaking multi-million, if not billion dollar corporation. They can surely do something else aside from updating the goddamn localisation files. And I bet all the remaining devs paid with half a bag of stale Doritos and a can of flat Pepsi have given up already.
Also, if they plan to release TF2 on Source 2, then I will punch myself in the nuts and eat my socks.
@@Paul_The_Writer I mean, they COULD update TF2 for realsies, but what I mean is that from a business perspective it’s not “Sustainable”.
Valve has always been a very “long term” company (investing into VR tech in like 2013 is one example of that) and part of that I believe is to focus on things that can give a sustainable profit in the long term; TF2 in its current form will not give a return, likely in the short term and long term, on the massive investment of time and money it would require to update and by extension navigate through its messy code, so it’s not sustainable and thus is discouraged by the “higher ups” (IE: people with more sway in the company).
I sure as hell hope they release a TF3 or something of the sort in my lifetime, as it’s the only way they’ll make any new TF2 content, but before they do any of that I’d expect HL3/Portal3.
No, I’m not joking, they probably have the story all mapped out by now so games in the “Black Mesa & Aperture” universe are being prioritized, this is also probably why they retconned cave to be alive and a big robot head in Aperture Desk Job, given the plot implications.
If I’m completely and utterly off, I will ingest a leather shoe.
@@Paul_The_Writer CSGO and Dota fetch valve so much money it's obvious why they've let TF2 behind. If it had a massive esports scene too, I doubt it would be this ignored. I guess it also has to do with how valve is structured as a company.
1. this is a great way to teach inexperienced players how to control via gamepad.
2. if future games require gamepads with all the buttons and features, then many of us, including me, will need a new one.
