The graphics of Portal 2 are beautiful, especially considering the game’s age.

19 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The humour is also much more present here, with more voice acting, more dialogue and plenty of ridiculous moments that give the characters much more personality.
Difficulty

12 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Difficulty is much balanced and forgiving compared to the original Portal which was a lot frustrating at times.
