she's in the backrooms at level 19 and has learned nothing, after jumping out of the fire she spent five minutes trying to work out how to build momentum to jump over the gap

she has a PhD and has played other games before

It's because the setting doesn't interest her. Same reason I played WoW in 2005 but never read a single quest text. Just accepted them and only followed the instructions.

I'll read the shit out the text from a game like Starsector or Escape Velocity. I did read most of Portal, too.

Maybe developers are right in making all games for retards. You just don't get how fucking retarded people can be at playing a simple game.

That's what I call "gaming intuition".
You learn the language of video games by playing a variety of them as you grow up. That's how you figure out how to follow context clues and what information matters.
Grow up not playing video games, you never build that intuition. It's really hard to learn for adults for some reason.

>anons complaining about girls playing vidya
If your view on women still hasn't been shattered, find an excuse to put together a LEGO set with your girl. Mine bought a Halloween-themed set so she can """decorate""" my "bare" (has only books on it) shelf. Women have 0 (zero) spatial awareness. This is also why they'll make you assemble shit for them - it's not because it's too heavy.
Some anon please post the "draw the water line" test on college educated women.

no one ever told me women were like this i had to learn it through pain

men are just better at everything, even getting penetrated
>>
>>734132160
They'll complain if you tell them. Or ask you to guide them everywhere after, which defeats the purpose, because what's the point in playing the videogame completely by yourself, just without your hands. You could just as well play with voice commands.

>>734131382
Maybe she feels nervous with you looking over her shoulder, so she isn't thinking straight. I know this has definitely happened to me in stressful situations in the past. How come unempathetic faggots like this get gfs, while I'm destined to be alone for my entire life? This is bullshit.

Women are like this because they have different strengths than men. At the end of the day is this not why we have a desire for them, because they're different and we want to protect them and fill in the gaps?

It's a catch 22, they play games made for retards as kids and then grow up unable to develop critical thinking and end up being retarded and then they also MAKE games for retards. We have people that grew up on Wii babby games now making vidya.

A European phd doesn't mean much. You pretty much just blindly do what your professor tells you to do for 2-3 years then graduate, as opposed to the states where you're expected to develop your own research proposals and oversee half a dozen projects at various stages of maturity.

>>
>>734136743
You have not accurately described the puzzle nor your solution. Where does the ball come from? Your solution suggests "portaling both raised platforms and waiting for the ball to go through" then moving one of the portals after that. Why would you do that? If both platforms have portals, and the ball has gone through a raised platform to exit the other one, presumably the one it's exiting is the one on the left, toward the receiver. Not sure where moving a portal would come into it at this stage.
>>
>>734136743
Sounds like she deserves some good corrective rape tonight
>>
>>734138108
IIRC the ball comes down from where the opening in the ceiling and the red light is

Reason you need to do as the anon said is because the ball will initially come out of the second portal at horizontal angle and go towards the wall, and only after the 45 degree bounce it will go into the receiver
>>
>>734138108
You sound like AI and my solution is correct

The one on the left (in the picture) is the ball sender. The red light on the ceiling to the right is the ball receiver (so's your mom)

Place a portal on the left platform.
Place a portal on the right platform.
Ball comes down from ceiling into left portal
Ball comes out of right platform towards wall.
Replace right portal
Ball bounces off wall towards right platform
Ball bounces upwards towards ceiling

Are you my girlfriend?
>>
>>734138295
Actually it might be the other way around, the device sends out the ball

Either way, logic remains the same

In case you're still here op, just because she does not have a great visual spatial (women have less visual spatial than to men on average) doesn't mean you should break up with her. Also she likely doesn't play video games so there is a disconnect in logic in the game and logic in the world. Though I'm not going to make an excuse for everything, it's not as simple as it seems.

>she has a phd
Ok, your first failure is that you dont realize that women are retarded whether they have a phd or teenage pregnancy. They can follow recipes, which is why they are good bakers but shit cooks. Portal 2 doesnt show a recipe on how to beat every level on the screen, so the woman will keep doing retarded woman shit until you either pull up a recipe or she has brute forced her way until end game.

>>
>>734138130
Why are women like this? Like retarded?
>>
>>734140017
I think it just goes to show how being attractive to women is orthogonal to being a good person. If anything, bad men might be on average perceived as more attractive, as bad men tend to be low on trait agreeableness, which women find to be an attractive quality. While qualities like being kind, empathetic, understanding, etc. tend to correlate with high trait agreeableness, which is a quality women tend to find unattractive.

No. I did mean orthogonal. But given my later elaboration, it's understandable why you think the word "antithetical" would reflect better what I meant to say, so let me clarify by underlining the later part of my statement was a purely speculative deduction based on my existing understanding. It's why I hedged it by saying "might be" instead of saying "is". It doesn't factor into my general assessment.

Your AI answers are obvious and still incorrect
Orthogonal refers to geometry, for example: detector efficiency was characterized by measurements performed at a 2 m standoff distance orthogonal to the geometric center of the detector active volume.
Please explain how you believe "being an attractive woman" is geometrically perpendicular to "being a good person"
>>
>>734141341
nta but orthogonal can also simply mean branching or unrelated; imagine saying "tangential" or "perpendicular". That's a similar meaning.
>>
>>734141341
>being an attractive woman
oh nvm you're just illiterate
he said that being attractive TO women was orthogonal to being a good person, as in it's unrelated. You can be attractive or unattractive and be good or bad but they do not have any relation.

yeah one thing I've learned from watching other people play games is that there's a reason why devs are making yellow paint segments and having voiceovers constantly giving you hints on what to do
modern gamers are retarded

Because people who know you already dumb down their speech patterns in order to communicate with you.

>>734141341
>Orthogonal refers to geometry
In statistics you can use it to say that two variables are uncorrelated, meaning there's no linear relationship between them. Directional changes in one don't systematically increase/decrease the other. It's an intentionally weak claim rather than something stronger like e.g. saying the two are independent.
>Please explain how you believe "being an attractive woman" is geometrically perpendicular to "being a good person"
I think what you meant to say was:
>Please explain how you believe "a man being attractive to women" is geometrically perpendicular to "being a good person"
I believe I explained what I meant by the term "orthogonal". If you disagree with the usage, then for the sake of clarity let me restate it by making the following two slightly-awkward statements that I think are equivalent to my previous statement that used the word orthogonal: "A man being better (morally speaking) doesn't imply he is more/less attractive to women." and "A man being worse (morally speaking) doesn't imply he is more/less attractive to women". I hope that clears things up.

>>734131382
Portal is just an IQ test and the average man is just as bad at it as the average woman, because the 'average' in practice is actually retarded. The only difference is we don't get to see the average man playing Portal because if he's playing vidya at all it'll be a sportslop or movieslop and not Portal. The typical man who is too retarded for Portal probably has no interest in playing it in the first place. Without an extrinsic reason, they likely never will.
Conversely, we're overexposed to female examples of being too retarded for Portal (or other games) because they circumstantially end up playing games more, even when they're bad at them. This is usually either because they're being a quirk chungus and dating a neckbeard, or they're being an e-whore and streaming what they're playing.

tl;dr it's selection bias
>>
I have fond memories of watching my wife play Portal before we started going out. She was pretty retarded with it, but got off on me teasing her about it.
Later on we tried making her best friend play Amnesia, and watched as she struggled to grasp the idea of moving and would consistently just run into walls, as in this girl couldn’t keep the concept of WASD to move in her head and kept having to check what she was supposed to do.
