XP penalty and likely 1 portal is NOT going anywhere

Fallacies, false dichotomy, hasty generalization, non sequitor, strawman, red herring. Proof you can't argue in good faith.

So, you don't deny it. Good to know :)

I just did.

If only you could read what people are saying to you and accept their opinions. But you can't, because you can't even accept being at fault when dying in a solo video game. And you can't accept that the game you chose to play has designed punishment for failing.

So you are here... doing what exatly ? Ah yes, trying to prove to yourself and to the world that the game is flawed and it's not your fault if you can't progress in it.

Again, it's not the game's fault. Some people can progress in it. They have to accept the rules and limitations and bend their gameplay around it.

You know, i just come here once in a while and play a game where i open 2-3 random posts to see if i see same pople there. And you are in all of them, every time :D Terminally online, so invested.

You guys, the "oldschools" the "veterans" or as i say - stockholms can talk all you want. No matter what devs said a month ago. No matter what game was or is now. It will change for the people, and you will deal with it.

Yes, they might not change it in a way players say they want it, but it will become different and less punishing. It already did a little, and will more.

Just want to agree that one portal does not help you get better. You have no opportunity to face what killed you to do better or even to figure out what exactly killed you.

Yeah 6 portals might be overkill but at least agree that 1 is bad. How about 3?

You’re completely overlooking the point that constructive difficulty includes giving players the tools to understand why they failed. It’s not about making the game easier or reducing punishment, but about offering clearer feedback so players can adapt and improve, which is a fundamental aspect of constructive challenge. Without meaningful feedback, there’s no real way to learn from what went wrong, and that’s what makes the difficulty feel punitive rather than challenging.

As for the “some people can progress in it,” that’s irrelevant to the discussion. Just because some players can push through doesn’t mean the design is optimal or accessible. Just because a few players might adapt doesn’t mean the system isn’t flawed. The goal here is about making the game better, not just pointing fingers at people who struggle.

I am old-school and yeah it's obviously going to change. One Portal was poorly thought out.
