please frank i need you to spread the message that GLaDOS did nothing wrong
answered:
There is a GLaDOS in Portal that does nothing wrong. It is an angel
no no no, it’s not that she didn’t do anything wrong, it’s that she did but she’s still so hot, i mean what i would never think that, couldn’t be me, noooo definitely not, what were we talking about?
She definitely did a lot wrong in Portal and Portal 2. Just, in different ways than Aperture was.
what do you mean “in different ways than aperture?”
The thing where she tried to keep Chell alive, and that resulted in the whole “she has a problem with letting people die” thing, and that was kind of bad because the other thing she tried to keep people from dying was also kind of bad in its own way.
What I mean is she did some of her best stuff in Portal 1, because it was (mostly?) about the “she did some bad things” and “she also did a bunch of good things.”
In Portal 2, she gets away with being evil because it’s sort of a “how dare you say bad things about a nice person.” She is a very competent scientist (her “research” in Portal 2 does more for the plot than anything that happens to GLaDOS in the game), and her whole “I’m your scientific superior but also I’m evil” schtick in Portal 2 is very in-character – but it’s all in-character for GLaDOS. (Her character design in Portal 2 really feels designed to give people a hard time and not let them think there is an in-character explanation for her behavior that doesn’t involve evil, and that is pretty darn evil.)
The really evil thing she does in Portal 2, of course, is letting herself be framed for the murder of Aperture’s founders.
Frank, I am HERE for the take that GLaDOS isn’t actually Caroline and that Caroline was one of Aperture’s founders. Can you please explain your reasoning?
