The game was showered with praise and GOTY awards when it came out but I never see it on any "favorite games" lists and shit. Like, you'd expect a game that aged extremely well, especially when compared to other games of its generation, to at least be mentioned from time to time but nothing.

    You're evidently not in the right fandom spaces, there's still a ton of fic and art being made about the portal canon, the vast majority of which acknowledges/includes the events of 2. Hell, the most popular fic in the fandom (like, people regularly bind it into hardback books type of popular) is a direct result of the ending of 2. Please do not ask me why i know these things.

    But yeah, you're right, portal 2 slapped and should be appreciated more, especially by valve.
