The Great Portal 3 Speculation Thread
Quote from AntiVector on August 26, 2013, 2:56 amNow, hoooooold your horses. You and I both know that Valve will never make a Portal 3.
But if they did...
<What would the premise be?
<What would be the new mechanics introduced?
< Would it still use port Of course it would, stupid.
<What kind of new puzzles could we get out of the new mechanics could we get out of it?
<What impact would this have on the Portal Community?I have this vision in my mind of Aperture inventing time travel after all the humans were un-stasised, or an Aperture another 99999999999etc in the future in space, using that F-Stop Valve has kept secret like a tantalizing sundae of mystery.
Anyway, go. Just go. Stop reading this intro and post, dammit!

...and would only exist for more revenue.

On-topic, I would imagine that Portal 3 would be a prelude-type of game, not a continuation of where P2 left off. Either concerning F-Stop, or a little closer, Rattman.
[spoiler]Also, AntiVector, it's a shame your location was lost in translation. Would've been interesting to find out...[/spoiler]

Quote from Tmast98 on August 26, 2013, 1:14 pmIn my opinion at least, Chell's story is over, she's free from Aperture now. The only possible Portal game I can think of that could have potential is Rattman's story. Not sure how that would work though......
There's always room for more DLC though! But I do believe VALVe is done with that for Portal 2.

Now, I am of the mindset that Portal works well enough on its own, and doesn't need to be connected to Half-Life more than it already is, but it would be interesting for a hypothetical Portal 3 to give us more hints about the Borealis, possibly being set in the tundra the Borealis was teleported to.
[spoiler]A little secret: my location is hex that literally translates out to "lost in translation," as in I'm actually lost in translation.[/spoiler]

Quote from FelixGriffin on August 26, 2013, 6:37 pmPerhaps it'll be released along with Episode 3, both taking place at the same time and both in the Borealis. There could be some interesting crossovers there, judging from the leaked ep3 code a while back.
[spoiler]Except, of course, that VALVe abandoned the episodic framework.[/spoiler]

Quote from User on September 6, 2013, 10:58 amI dont think that there "100" will be no Portal 3.
And i dont think that "Wheatley" will come back.
I could imagine that Chells Story isnt over.BUT: Portal 2 was also a suprise, i mean, who thought about this story while playing Portal 1 first time? Maybe Portal 3 would be also something completely new.. ^^
