@pupy@chitter.xyz yeah, that was one of my frustrations with Portal 2 – they took the fling mechanic, which was occasionally used in the first game, and made it a significant part of the game.
(And also with a portal 1 modpack – it was really hyped up, and it took the creator 3 years to make, but then it was entirely fling based puzzles, and the last one was on a timer and I just couldn't do it)
