Always feels good to find a small but good channel

That was such a well edited video. Your responses are also pretty damn good. Got a few good chuckles out of me. Also, as another guy said, I thought this was gonna be a video essay, but this was a pleasant surprise.

Not what I was expecting given the title but this was a real cute video, subbed!

Your commentary blends so well with the game's writing, it's amazing, subscribing. Is this your first playthrough? If so, you're in for a treat, this is in my opinion one of the best games ever made

i keep coming back to this game bc it's so beautiful. i think I'm at 20+ replays of the main story by now. can't wait for p2ce so I can make my own maps

I absolutely ADORE your editing style, am always happy to see a new enjoyer of the portal games (even if this was filmed a year ago) -The 18th portalmaster (do not ask what happened to the other 17, I do not know)

I so love this killer robot that hates me, i want to hug her

this is really funny and the tracking for the subtitles are amazing! Please show us more WE NEEDS IT

The absolute betrayal in the "NO!!" when she fizzles the companion cube for the last time hits me in my soul.

Im halfway through the video and im really impressed with the editing and how engaging this is!! with many other playthroughs ill skip around to the interesting parts, but this is really engaging, and im gonna watch all of it >:3 you've earned a subscriber :) (ALSO HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!)

I love your quipping right back at GLaDOS! Subbed!

The algorithm has truly blessed me today, love the video. Think ill replay the game again after.

GLaDOS: "Solve this simple test, which involves deadly lasers, and how test subjects react when locked in a room with deadly lasers" You: "I love deadly lasers! Usually I react to them by dying" I genuinely love you matching the energy of the game.

Missed one of my favourite easter eggs in the (ratman) room at 15:36 (chamber 3 of chapter 2) If you pick up the radio in that room it starts playing Exile Vilify by the National which was supposed to be the music for a "fake ending" but was scrapped in the release ,_, Its a beautiful song..

Hi! Can i ask what you mean by do more with them? I’d like to be conscious of making sure people can enjoy my content regardless of anything. If adding in hand made captions to the youtube captioning system helps with readability, I’d be willing to go to the effort of making that too - and probably will when I’ve got the time to. Also massive thanks for the love!

amazing video i love the editing

Your interactions with Wheatley made me totally imagine your voice as personality core in Portal, not 100% sure why, tho.

i love your commentary!!!

“Waddle over to the elevator and we’ll continue testing.” I forgot she said that! Such a subtle passive aggressive line! Had me rolling when I first heard it!

Insanely high quality video and great personality for this. Earned an instant sub and a follow on Twitch. Literally my only note for improvement is that that game music is a little loud, sometimes, occasionally, it's hard to hear you talk.

Expected a video essay but this is a decent substitute

Out of so many amazing lines, "We both said a lot of things that _you're_ going to regret" is horrendously underrated.

this is like a "what if chell talked video" and it was well done

the game is genius, i just finished portal 2 and im now playing portal 1 (yep, totally the right order) and im stuck in chamber 15 lol, btw still genius game

17:16 there's an interesting instance of how motion is relative: the cube almost looks like it's standing still!

This guy deserves 50x the subscribers he has now this is really well-done!

Excelent taste and choice in music
