Portal 2
Where are the DLCs?
When Portal 2 was annouced we were promised DLCs.
I was waiting 6 years now and the only DLC we got was a very small one.
I'm kinda disappointed. Sure we have Workshop integration, but it's not the same as if Valve themselves made DLCs. I'd love to pay even for 2 hours of extra gameplay.

Valve loves breaking promises...

Well, there are 3 DLC's, in a way. Maybe one of them you would call a DLC while the other 2 expansions.

Portal 2 DLC's:
1) Sixense - for Razer Hydra motion controllers
2) Peer Review - challange modes, co-op Art Therapy testing course
3) Perpetual Testing Initiative - PeTi and workshop

After PeTi was introduced, there was no need for any more DLC's as all the power of creativity was given to the community. And so, we create our own mods and maps.

Plus, if Vavle would get an idea on making a DLC for Portal 2, they better off making Portal 3 while they at it.

Yeah, the first one requires a Sixense sensor, so that is like an exclusive DLC and more like an extra do promote that. While the workshop doesn't really count. In my opinion there are only a few maps out there by the community which really life up to the standards of the real Portal 2 maps. Also the PetI is just a simplified version of the Hammer so that everyone can make levels. (In most cases if someone needs that, their levels will be reduced to more simple ones)

And I thought about Portal 3 the same, but it's been a while already and no new titles were announced. (Portal 2 was released 4 years after Portal 1, so I waited up to 6 years to see if we get an announcement).
They could as well do some episodic release of the Portal 3 content as Portal 2 DLCs.
I was really hyped up when Peer Review came out, but that's like the only real DLC, imo.
I don't care how, but I want new Portal content. I get it that a game needs time and not much pressure from the players, but as usual for Valve you don't get any vital signs.

And well, the PeTI is nice and stuff, but Portal doesn't have a game mechanic, where you can be just like in Mario Maker placing around stuff nearly somewhere and a good map will come out.
