Portal: Too Easy?

Does anyone else find Portal to be a little easy?

Don't get me wrong. I love Portal. It was a hell of a time. Yet I noticed that I never really got truly stumped when it came to each area. If I didn't figure out the way to achieve the task right off the bat I'd figure it out in 5-10 mins. Even the maps on advanced didn't throw me off.

re: Portal: Too Easy?

Well Portal was just more of a conceptual game by Valve. But it's not really much about ease as much as how fast you figure it out. I mean even if a board was even more complex im sure even I would have figure out how to get through it eventually.

re: Portal: Too Easy?

Yeah I think it was easy. I enjoyed every second of it though.I'm thinking that the main game couldn't be extremely hard considering there aren't difficulty settings, more or less not to hard for the casual gamer. Difficulty lies in the Gold medal rounds IMO.

re: Portal: Too Easy?

Portal is easy yes.

But the challenges available after you've completed the basic tasks are quite... "challenging"

re: Portal: Too Easy?

You always get that few who call every game easy. I guess ninja gaiden master mode is easy along with shinobi on hard right?



Not every game is about overdone difficulty and if you think every game should be hard then you sir are a cocky NARROW minded gamer.

Key word is Narrow-minded as in seeing one way.

Get Gold on all the bonus challenges and then get back to us about the game being easy.

kthx.

re: Portal: Too Easy?

The challenge (fewest portals) on the first map is hard.

I can get lowest portal number to 6.

re: Portal: Too Easy?

I can get that one in four, no problem. The main thing is being able to throw the cube from one platform to the other instead of using another portal to get one of the checkmarks on the doors.

I have trouble with the fewest step ones. Damn.

Portal is pretty easy but still a great game. I don't think they planned on making it really challenging.

Ya I do to. I got almost all gold for least portals, and a couple for least time, but none for least steps.
