Is portal hard?

[Silva]

There are a few situations when I think that perspectives that you're not taking in when looking around a room can make you blind to what you need to do unless you mess around for a while, especially towards the end.

Some of the techniques you learn to do with Portals can also be somewhat challenging to replicate if you are new to gaming.

Overall, I would call it an easy-to-normal game. You will screw up a few times, the game will kill you a few times. If you're smart enough to keep trying, you should beat it. Just retain persistence.

The later stages can be a little challenging, but it's not that difficult to be honest. Clocked it in 2.5 hours. T'was fun though, and the challenge rooms are a nice touch.

It's only hard if you over-think it or make it more complicated than it actually is. The hardest parts are outside the test chambers because you have to play where-waldo for walls you can portal gun and actually work out where you're meant to go.

I believe you're thinking of the second game. You know, where you just look for the one portal surface in a huge room. There's less of that in the first.
