"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!"

“Oh, It’s you.”

Anything Glados from Portal 1/2--still one of very, very few games to actually make me laugh. But also the Cave Johnson "when life gives you lemons" rant comes to mind, because it's both funny and poignant.

[-] Mister_Feeny@fedia.io 8 points 4 months ago

Everything in Portal 2 is gold, but if you shout out both GladOs AND Cave, I feel like Wheatley deserves a mention as well.

"Most test subjects do experience some cognitive deterioration after a few months in suspension. Now you've been under for... quite a lot longer, and it's not out of the question that you might have a very minor case of serious brain damage. But don't be alarmed, alright? Although, if you do feel alarm, try to hold onto that feeling because that is the proper reaction to being told you have brain damage."

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

Yes, I honestly can't believe I didn't mention him. It's really a testament to what a fucking gem that game is. God. So much greatness packed into such a short time.

[-] drmoose@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Favorite Glados ones:

  • “We both said a lot of things that you’re going to regret.”
  • “That thing you burned up isn't important to me; it's the fluid catalytic cracking unit. It makes shoes for orphans... Nice job breaking it, hero.”

And Cave Johnson:

  • “When life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons! Demand to see life’s manager!”
  • “Science isn’t about why. It's about why not.”
[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Had to look it up to refresh my memory:

  • "Nice job breaking it, hero."

  • "You are not a good person. You know that, right? Good people don't get up here."

  • "Here come the test results: You are a horrible person. We weren't even testing for that."

  • "Congratulations on beating the odds and somehow managing to pack on a few pounds."

You really need the full 2-minute audio of the lemons bit to get the gist. J.K. Simmons did an amazing job balancing funny and, "oh shit, am I...sad!?!?...during the silly, funny puzzle game!?"

"But i gave my cat to you. Doesnt that make you the owner?"

Its said by a ghost cat to a cat. The owner in the context is the reason why the alive cat is locked in a series of rooms. I have spent months trying to understand what it means and still cant

"The thing about happiness is that you only know you had it when it's gone. I mean, you may think to yourself that you're happy. But you don't really believe it. You focus on the petty bullshit, or the next job, or whatever. It's only looking back by comparison with what comes after that you really understand, that's what happiness felt like."

There's no shame in it, Raziel - revenge is motivation enough. At least it's honest. Hate me, but do it honestly.

[-] InvalidName2@lemmy.zip 3 points 4 months ago

I don't know if it's my "favourite" but I remember how hilarious it was the first time I heard that original Resident Evil line about "you, the master of unlocking". Granted, at the time I assumed it was all intentional B-grade horror movie parody.

I’m here to kick ass and chew bubblegum. I know it’s from a carpenter film, but I heard it first in Duke Nukem.
