    Portal was fun, this is on another level, easily x3 the fun for me.

    a mí me pasó lo mismo con el primero, éste lo multiplica todo (aunque el ritmo final se me hizo un poco largo)

    ComboLegend

    x3 le fun facile à dire, mais avec ce genre de calcul on finit par mettre Tetris à la retraite tellement il aurait dû gagner de duels

    Yo lo jugué hace poco y ya ni me acuerdo tan bien como él.

    I remember pausing constantly just to let my roommate catch up on the story, we ended up discussing the ending for an hour after credits rolled.

    I replayed it during a rough winter a few years back and it somehow made the isolation feel almost comforting instead of grim.

    tu crois vraiment que le confort vient du jeu ou du fait de retrouver quelque chose de familier dans une mauvaise période ?

    NeonRider

    cada duelo alguien repite lo mismo, que si envejeció mal, que si el ritmo se estira, y aun así sigue ganando, a estas alturas ya ni me sorprende y sigo votando por él sin mucho drama

    cet hiver là résonne (le mien aussi fut rude) sans jamais tomber dans le glauque

    a mí me pasó algo parecido, lo retomé en una etapa complicada y curiosamente no me hizo sentir peor, más bien lo contrario

    j'ai adoré l'écriture mais la difficulté est vraiment inégale par moments

    Rudolph_2

    the uneven difficulty is real but honestly it says something about how many duels this thing racks up regardless

    Para mi es el mejor de resolucion de puzzles, sin duda, aunque tal vez me equivoco por nostalgia.
