This game was amazing. If I was 16 when this first came out I'd have dumped countless more hours into it. The portals were integrated so smoothly that it just felt like something that should always exist.

Don't even get me started on triple portals lol

I played but seem a little out of step. What are triple portals?

[–] Tlaloc_Temporal@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 weeks ago

It's basically just chaining together portals to move quickly. Effectively line-of-sight teleportation.

Place portal A next to you, then place portal B somewhere else. Step through to location B, then replace portal A with portal C in a new location. Rinse and repeat.

Triple portal is a bit of a misnomer, it's more like walking a pair of portals around. You go through to a new portal, then move the old one somewhere new. It's just like walking, except your feet are portals and you can move them almost instantly.

The german Youtuber AltF4Games has some good reviews (almost a series now) about the game and the very shady company behind it. The current splitgate 2 is apparently back in their second beta phase, after they didnt achieve what their countless investors wanted (to be the new definitive fps). And now its a game with everything and nothing, kinda generic.
