Even if it is an opinion, ~2800 ratings making it a 5-star map is a pretty strong "this is a good map" opinion.

I'm not talking about whether the map is fun to play. I'm talking about how the map looks and it looks like garbage. It's a map that if you put on the front page, going off track, it'd look like shit and the advertising would reflect that. Not the fake flashy images they have advertising the game now. If you forgot that's the conversation we've been having. You keep bringing up irrelevant details.

If you could walk on walls and ceilings in Portal, then you could just walk around straight to the end. I'm talking about the available editor tools to be able to create the map you want to

You can't walk on walls though, that's the point. If you have to say "if you could walk on walls in Portal" i feel like you just made my point. Comparing it to Portal is pointless, unless you could walk on walls in Portal. Portals tools fit Portals' needs. That's the point, they designed it for Portal, not Distance. Portals tools wouldn't work for Distance. The comparison is meaningless, like the Mario Kart one, unless you could fly through invisible walls in Mario Kart.

There is a mode for that in Portal 1 though, and when you finish a workshop Portal 2 map, it does give you your completion time.

And? None of that is relevant. It's just a bonus thing, not the core of the game, it isn't as meaningful.

Go through walls? xD You can't just magically drive/fly through walls in Distance unless the author specifically used objects that don't have collision for the purpose of you not being able to land on them.

Never said that for Distance, go back and read, that was an example for Portal.
