With the plot of the game, the story behind "Portal" is gradually revealed in front of players.

Just like the genre of the game is puzzle puzzles.

A plot in "Portal" also requires players to piece together a little bit.

Including the dialogue of the robot, as well as some clues in the scene.

Only by connecting these things together can we get a complete story.

And the difference from the dream memory is that Yang Chen combined a follow-up plot with the previous one.

It's just that the player still has to go through some clues in the game to understand all this.

In the original game, the protagonist Cher, who was controlled by the player, threw the core of GLaDOS into the incinerator, causing an overload explosion.

Shirley is blown off the ground, but is quickly dragged back into the Aperture by the robot.

The nezumi then found Cher in the cryofreezer at the leisure center and sent an escort robot to place her in the cryogenic room.

The nezumi decides to try to save her with cryo control, but the Sentinel Tower stands in his way.

He finds a panel on the wall and soon realizes that the destruction of GLaDOS has blown up the main power grid, causing all freezers, including Cher, to go offline.

The nezumi then tried to get over the turret, but was hit in the thigh.

The Nezumi used all his might to patch Cher's cryonics into the alternate grid and restart her life support system, which works but will leave Cher to sleep permanently until she is awakened.

At the same time, due to Cher's destruction of GLaDOS, Wheatley, who was supposed to be on standby in the warehouse, and many other personality cores were activated to maintain the aperture facility, but there were still many problems with the cores, some of which had low batteries, and the program was not working properly.

After an unknown amount of time, Wheatley woke Cher up and moved the entire cryogenic device.

While moving, Wheatley begins to worry about the ruins of the facility and tries to fix it, so he guides Cher back to the dilapidated Gen 1 lab and gets the portal gun.

It's just that Wheatley's is like a pig teammate in a competitive game, interpreting what it means to be stupid.

After passing through several labs, he returns to the wreckage of the GLaDOS console in the first generation, but accidentally restarts the GLaDOS system when the protagonist and Wheatley try to open the escape pod.

GLaDOS does not forgive Cher for "murdering" her in a generation many years ago, and takes Cher back into endless experiments, and begins to rebuild the entire abandoned Aperture Technology facility.

"I think it's only in science that we can put our differences aside for the time being, you monster."

The nightmare struck, and poor Cher was kicked into the dilapidated maze to continue testing, but this time the maze was no longer just the electronic voice of GLaDOS chattering alone, but also the "stupid" core robot Wheatley.

However, as one of the game's plots progresses, just like in the previous plot, GLaDOS deceived Cher.

This time, GLaDOS tells the player why Wheatley is so stupid.

It turns out that Wheatley is at the heart of the Aperture Science scientists who specifically used to limit the interference with GLaDOS thinking and prompt her to make bad decisions, known as the Stupid Thought Core.

GLaDOS's taunts were unbearable for Wheatley, so he kept making the player think he was a helper, but Wheatley, who was just a little stupid, betrayed the player as well.

The word "lie" runs through the entire game's story, from beginning to end.

But what is really surprising is that as the plot progresses, GLaDOS gives players a different feeling.

Compared with Wheatley, there are other artificial intelligence AI with science fiction themes.

GLaDOS, on the other hand, gives players a very 'romantic' feel.

GLaDOS is annoying, but it's also endearing.

Procedurally, GLaDOS is a complete contempt for humans, full of pride in her identity as an artificial intelligence, and experimentation is her pursuit and mission.

From the contempt for Xue'er at the beginning, to the surprise and panic after the other party came to the basement to escape.

And then there's 'maybe an experiment' that would be of some use, right?' ’

In the end, Wheatley betrayed Cher, but at this time, it was GLaDOS who lived and died with Cher, and even gave Cher a lot of help.

"Although you want to kill me, twice. But it's a pleasant situation right now. GLaDOS said.

At the last minute, Wheatley arranges a trap to blow up the core-swapping button and injure Cher.

At the last moment, Cher opens the portal on the surface of the moon in the sky, sucking Wheatley into outer space.

Ready to die with him, but in the end, GLaDOS uses a robotic arm to pull Cher back and exile Wheatley into space. 、

And after Cher woke up, GLaDOS explained that it had only learned the preciousness of human nature from Caroline's personality information, but immediately deleted this part of the personality information and returned to the hostile state of the past.

Eventually, however, GLaDOS agreed to let Cher out of the aperture, citing the fact that the experiment proved to be too difficult to kill Cher.

"I can live forever, but you can't, it's a shame, but it's a good thing."

This sentence is full of GLaDOS's superiority as an artificial intelligence, a sense of pride in one's identity.

And in the end, she also said goodbye to Cher.

Do you know what my days were like? I just tested. No one ever murdered me. Or put me in a potato. Or feed me to the birds. My life is quite good. ’

And then you showed up. You dangerous mute lunatic. So you know what? ’

You won. ’

'In the past, I wanted you to die. But for now, I just want you to leave, a great fun experience, don't come back! ’

Finally, when a single called 'Want You Gone' sounded.

Chen Xu, who had spent a few days clearing the customs, suddenly felt a little lost.

I have to say that he really likes this artificial intelligence called GLaDOS.

There are only three characters in the entire Portal who actually appear.

Like the protagonists of games like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Cher doesn't speak a word from beginning to end.

Standard tsundere GLaDOS, and an idiot talker Wheatley.

The whole story seems very simple.

Cher was used by GLaDOS to test with lies, and then Cher killed GLaDOS for the first time, and was rescued by the nezumi who didn't have a leak in his face but only learned from some clues, and then was awakened by Wheatley, and then defeated GLaDOS twice, but was betrayed by Wheatley.

After defeating Wheatley again, he was rescued by GLaDOS and turned his enemies into friends, leaving Aperture Technology and returning to the surface.

It's a very simple story, but the whole journey of the game makes Chen Xu feel very romantic.
