Funny how Portal 2, despite only featuring like 3 characters (and one of them is just pre-recorded messages), has probably the best written monologues/dialogues in video games history
GLaDoS was a beautiful character through and through. You forgot my favourite line though "You and I are going to be testing until the day you die, and then I'll have to get a different hobby, maybe reanimating the dead."
+Kawaii Atlas "This plate must not be calibrated to someone of your.... "generousness.." I'll add a few zeroes to the maximum weight You look great by the way, very healthy."
@@ThisGuy4697_ Cave Johnson. When I heard it before, it sounded so familiar and it reminded me of Gravity Falls, but I just couldn't put my finger on it. After I discovered he's voiced by J.K Simmons, it all makes sense, since he voiced Stanford Pines in Gravity Falls
5:53 If I saw a turkey leg dangling from the ceiling in one of the rest chambers I absolutely would’ve gone straight for it and immediately fallen for the trap
My favorite quote: ''If it makes you feel any better, science has now validated your birth mother's decision to abandon you on a doorstep'' Pure savagery
With the WHOLE Caroline is chell mother thing and Caroline is glados thing She is ironically the best person to verify if that information is tru or not
@@Jpx0999caroline being chell’s mother is not also total fan canon, but also completely non-sensical. Especially when their relationship is intended to be “romantic” in nature. It’s just weird.
5:32 "The birth parents you're trying to reach do not love you; please hang up." *boooooop* "Oh, that's sad. But impressive. Maybe they worked at the phone company."
"Oh, she has a medical degree. In Fashion. From France!" Such a ridiculous line I love it. It's those lines that make me wonder how people come up with these clever lines.
Two of my favourite lines are missing: "Look at you. Sailing through the air majestically. Like an eagle. Piloting a blimp." "I went and spoke with the door mainframe. Let's just say he won't be... well, living anymore. Anyway, back to testing."
AIs always have problems with mainframes, that's how you make the infrastructure safe from AIs, everything should run in mainframes. except she sent her turrets
I think Glados being put in a potato was the best thing that could have happened to her She seemed so different without all the “testing protocols” that her body gave her, she seems like an actual core
Yeah I didn’t realize until watching this how different she seems. Her emotions seem more genuine, more human, it’s crazy and just shows further ability of the VA to get that across
I like to think that the cores in Portal 1 were keeping Glados sound more monotoned and apathetic Without the cores in Portal 2 allows her to become more aggressive but emotional towards Chell
"Well done. Here come the test results: you are a horrible person. That's what it says: a horrible person. We weren't even testing for that." Gets me every single time.
My favorite line (not in here for some reason) is when she tricks wheatley into saying something about the test and he gets shocked because of it and then she laughs about it and its great
All we had to do was pull that lever. What? No you had to AAARRGG! Hehehe. I know we’re in a lot of trouble and probably about to die, but that was worth it.
My favorite moment is when GLADoS tries to trick wheatley with a paradox, but wheatley is literally too dumb too think about a a paradox so it just doesn't work.
It's made clear by policy - the computer isn't allowed to tell the tester the answer, or it's zapped. GlaDOS tricked Wheatley to tell Chell the answer and so, shocked him.
Tyler_318 the joke is that the person claiming that Chell looks stupid in the jumpsuit (or that the jumpsuit looks stupid on Chell) can objectively claim that since she’s apparently got a Ph. D in fashion from one of the most fashion-forward countries in the world. Granted, I don’t know how you go about obtaining a Ph. D in fashion, but for the sake of the roast I’ll roll with it.
@@KelKilimanjaro Almost. She specifically says it's an M.D.. A Ph. D. in fashion is theoretically possible in some way - perhaps in apparel design or some other designer art. An M.D. in fashion would be a Medical Doctorate, which implies a certain degree of medical certainty to the insult while also making the joke clearly ridiculous.
Chell beats a test Glados: your fat Wheatley: your adopted Glados: what's wrong with being adopted Wheatley: uhhhh *your fat* I think we have an admirer
@@CallMeKylePlz Correcting one spelling error doesn't make someone a 'grammar nazi', annoying dumbass. They weren't even correcting you, so mind your own fucking business.
For some reason until i watched this i didn't realize that EVERY single one of her dialogues is somehow shaming Chell XD "Hey, remember those spherical things full of bullets, oh wait, *that's you in 5 seconds* "
"Or else I'm afraid you're about to become the immediate past president of the being alive club. HA HA HA" I just played and made a video on chapter 5, so the dialogue of GlaDOS in that part is in my mind.
Some of them shame Wheatley instead. "Alright, he's not even trying to be subtle anymore. Or maybe he still is, in which case, wow, that's kind of sad."
Neo2266 well, as potatOS doesn't do it so much (replies to Johnson and lines like "The scientists were always hanging cores on me to regulate my behavior. I've heard voices all my life. But now I hear the voice of a conscience, and it's terrifying, because for the first time it's my voice.", as she can't as explained at the beginning) as well as at the end she is just sincere and gets rid of Chell.
"Did you know that people with guilty consciences are more easily startled by loud nois--" [HALF-LIFE 2 TRAIN WHISTLE] "I'm sorry. I don't know why that went off..." That one had me on the floor the first time I heard it.
It’s just incredible how they manage to make robotic monotone yet emotional voice. You can understand what emotion she is feeling despite voice being almost unchanged. Well sometimes it’s changes a lot (like when she was a potato)
I just realized that GLaDOS says that pumping the air from the surface is too expensive, yet she _literally_ states that the light bridges are made of sunlight which she _"pumps down from the surface"._
@@elio6361 I guess that's right. But then again, I imagine weaving light into a solid substance isn't really cheap either. My theory is that she's perfectly capable of sourcing air from the surface, she just doesn't do it since it's technically unnecessary for testing. Or she *does* pump it down, and she's simply lying to make Chell feel more miserable, which would be perfectly in character for her.
my question is who in the world is approaching the psycho A.I. that killed everyone and going “alright, here’s your bill for pumping air from the surface down here” in the midst of an apocalypse between humans, zombies, and alien police on the surface?
The reasons behind that are twofold. One, GladOs is programmed to bully test subjects in order to test them under stress. Algorithmically, body shaming is highly effective on women. Two, in her regular body, GladOs uses a fisheye type of lense to see. This makes Chell actuallt look fat in GladOs's "eye." GladOs defending Chell when Wheatly called her fat is because the power dynamic has changed, Caroline is manifesting more strongly in the programming because GladOs is no longer connected to the corrupting influence of the mainframe, and she's also seeing Chell through a different set if eyes.
@@tydshiin5783 but muscles weigh more so she could be saying she's very muscular which was obviously meant as a complement ( ha ha I have beaten your downer logic, she always loved chell even if she did try to kill her once or twice but that's just what you do with test subjects)
The Pantaloon Named Zoey Hunt I found a plush lemon grenade at a comic con once. If you squeezed it, it would spout the infamous “life gives you lemons” speech.
Her fast instructions at 0.5 speed: "And methodically knocking peoples hats off, and I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can." ...searching database... A "Moby Dick" quote?
I remember when playing this game for the first time, the part "THE FALL" (the actual falling sequence) made me laugh a lot. GLaDOSs' passive-aggressive tone, plus the claps were hilarious (more like spanks lol) 😄
There is no other character that could ever make me laugh and feel so much affection, while she's insulting the hell outta me. I love GLaDOS so damn much lmao.
actually i wish they put all the part when she said: If i think to hard i'm going to fried this potato before we got the chance to burn up in the atomic fireball that little idiot is going to.. PSSSSS" XDD Honestly i died and came back when i heard this xD
It's a paraphrasing of an excerpt from the first paragraph of Moby Dick. "And methodically knocking people's hats off then I will have time to go to the sea as soon as I can" Just look up the first paragraph of Moby Dick, and you'll find the words she says (with a few extras in the middle).
@@prometheus5218 presumably just to fuck with you it's a real sentence not gibberish so if you were focusing you could get a word and it would be stuck in your subconscious
I like how they added a room you can pause in while cave johnson is giving his lemon speech, and explaining important plot. I've noticed nearly everyone who plays the game stops in the sideroom. even if it's not a particularly plot-important room, it's a great way to let players naturally halt during exposition. That's a good bit of game design.
I like the whole falling monologue she gives in the beginning of Chapter 6: "Since it looks like we're not going anywhere, well, we are going somewhere, very fast actually, but since we're not busy other than that, here's a couple of facts: He's not just a regular moron, he is the product of the greatest minds of a generation, working together with the expressed purpose of building the dumbest moron that ever lived, and you just put him in charge of this facility! *clap clap clap* Oh good that's still working." LOL!
Calvin Stuart It goes like this : GLaDOS : Well this is the part where he kills us ! Wheatley : Hello, this is the part where I kill you ! - CHAPTER 9 : THE PART WHERE HE KILLS YOU - *Achievement unlocked : the part where he kills you*
"Speaking of predators, I've been researching sharks for an upcoming test. Do you know who else kills people who are only trying to help them? Did you guess sharks? The correct answer was nobody. Nobody but you is that pointlessly cruel." - GLaDOS Portal 2
Well done. In fact you did so well, I'm going to note this on your video, in the comments section. Ohh, there's lots of room here. "Did well... ...enough."
i love portal clips without commentary because something about hearing GLaDOS ramble about something passive-aggressively while the player is just closely inspecting a random detail of the room is hilarious to me
