That narrator part was the best.
its nice he got kevan brighting to voice it.
Outstanding quality!
Can't believe it's been 5 years since Portal 2 was released, jfc.
Damn, that is some top-notch animation.
Also hard to tell this is SFM, actually!

I like how he also got Virgil from Portal Stories: Mel in there.
Without looking at the author, I assumed this was a Valve video at first. Extremely well done!
Cake references were a little stale, but that's just me.

It's actually a contractual obligation when you make anything related to Portal.
Penalties for breach of contract is relinquishment of the access to your pantry to Gaben.
Would have preferred it without the cake/pop culture references and some of the shots seemed to drag on/get repetitive (dramatic windup comically falling flat on its face being a recurring theme), but the graphical and audio production value was amazing to take in. Really liked the cop core's iris resembling a sheriff star.
That Russian core was great
They've certainly improved, but I don't think their humor is always on point. For me, it's videos like this that prove just how good Portal 2 is written.
Would've been a lot better if it was all original cores instead of trying to do impressions of ones from the game. Every time an existing core that wasn't the fact core showed up or was mentioned I groaned

But they're all original apart from 10 seconds of Space and Wheatley. You groaned once? Unless you mean the announcer and turrets; which I tried to keep brief. =P

Well, that sequence, the announcer at the start, some of the cake jokes, the military guy mentioning Caroline. I guess my point is that at some points it felt like it was banking too hard on the viewer remembering things from the games instead of its own merits.
It could also be me being a huge nerd, since I was acutely aware that no one in the games actually say "GLaDOS," the closest we get is Cave saying the full name in the Workshop stuff. So when Ray said it that felt wrong to me too.

The turrets I can forgive on account of them being an integral part of Aperture, and you did a good job with them

The turret part was good, I laughed pretty hard at turret-core's miniguns. I think the weakest part was the 'Omnisphere', it was dragged out way too long.
I loved that there was a Bane Post in the video :v:.
