Portal developer quit Valve because they were too "hardcore" - Polidicks

[QUOTE=zombojoe;34248859]Portal 2 was extremely easy. There was hints everywhere. The only time it got difficult was in a few puzzles of the 2 player co-op, mostly due to co-operation issues.[/QUOTE] I feel stupid for some parts that were obivious and I didn't get it for 30 minutes or so.

[QUOTE=Laferio;34249977]oh, you mean something for kids with aspergers. because, you've got to ask yourself the question, "how dumb is my audience?" because this 3 year old can fucking play portal.

She doesn't seem to understand how controllers work.

She's stupid. No other explanation

god dammit just go through the orange portal eaugh

[QUOTE=elfbarf;34246939]Yep, she left Valve back in 2009 during the development of Portal 2. She's been the lead designer for Quantum Conundrum which is due to be released sometime in the next few months. I don't really understand how this game is more casual then Portal (aside from the cartoony art style), the original's challenge levels were pretty hard.

[QUOTE=Xenocidebot;34255349]And this adult woman can't. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZXQ3CnXBwk[/media][/QUOTE] First video "I never played Portal, so..." Stop right there. Go play it, then play P2.

Gabes dick was just to big she couldnt handle the task in hand.

It taught you every use of the gun, in detail, during the normal chambers.

[QUOTE=latin_geek;34255889]Portal had a waaaay less steep difficulty curve. It taught you every use of the gun, in detail, during the normal chambers.[/QUOTE] But Portal 2 literally simplified it to the point where I pretty much played Portal 2 more for the characters and story than the gameplay, which was just a greatly simplified and glorified version of Portal Portal gave you way more freedom as to where you could place portals and for some people that made it much, much harder. In Portal 2 all you really need to know are a basic grasp of the mechanics and the ability to distinguish concrete walls from metal walls.

iJustine is purposefully bad at Portal 2 though. That way she attracts he regular (idiotic) audience while also getting people like us to give her more views because we can't believe how incompetent she is. Shes one of the biggest whores on youtube.

[QUOTE=ForgottenKane;34247908]I'm surprised no-one has posted the obligatory "So-hardcore" image yet. I'm glad she left, my cousin went to Valve back in 2007/8 and said that the only problem was this one lady and that she was quite the asshole. If I recall correctly, it was this girl.[/QUOTE] [IMG]http://puu.sh/s49Z[/IMG]

Episode tree..

[QUOTE=mixshifter;34256034]Episode tree..[/QUOTE] Episod Tree actually. I don't see why everyone apparently has a stick up their arse just because she left over her own personal preferences.

[QUOTE=markg06;34256140]Episod Tree actually. I don't see why everyone apparently has a stick up their arse just because she left over her own personal preferences.[/QUOTE] Agree. It would be news only if "Gabe leaves valve because valve games too hardcore"

[QUOTE=Butthurter;34256225]holy shit this thread is filled with valve fanatics and constantly dissing her games just because she left valve what the fuck seriously[/QUOTE] Fanboys. Need I say more? Did you really expect valve fanboys to be any different from all other fanboys?

Retun of Mr.Friendly is going to turn HL3 hardcore as hell.

Hadnt Kim Swift left Valve before after Portal 1 to work on Dark Void or some shit? And in the process she completely trash-talked Portal 2 only to come crawling back on her knees begging for reemployment after Dark Void tanked because it sucked shit? Now shes up to it again? Will this woman never learn?

wow how many of you people are going to incorrectly assume she was referring to Portal/Portal 2 as the hardcore game jesus get some reading comprehension [editline]17th January 2012[/editline] [QUOTE='[CWG]RustySpannerz;34247547']I know almost nothing about Kim Swift, but my mind treats her like a traitor. I'm sure she's a nice person, but subconsciously I can't help but think, "bitch". [/QUOTE] what the fuck she was fresh out of college when she was hired to Valve do you know how many times the average person will switch jobs?

WHY WOULD YOU QUIT FROM VALVE. Derp. Worst live choice she probably will ever make.

[QUOTE=Crimor;34257631]Do you know how many people actually quit valve.[/QUOTE] Do you?

[QUOTE=Wormy;34257664]I thought Kelly Bailey who made all the Half Life music left Valve aswell.[/QUOTE] He was Gordon's 'facemap' as well.

That quantum game looks boring as shit imo. The dimensions are just different levels or object replacement. The slo-mo dimension is just a well, slo-mo. If there won't be any more gameplay elements, it will get boring really fast. [editline]19th January 2012[/editline] Oh wait there won't. Because that's too hardcore.
