Thank you to everyone who has stopped by to watch this! Here we are years later and I had no idea this video would ever get this popular. Didn't even realize I was one of the few to do a full playthrough of this. Thank you for your patronage it is much obliged. I have more cinematic no commentary content like this on my channel if you are interested as well as let's plays, music videos and live streams If you're not interested in any of that and you're just here for this video that's perfectly fine too. I'm glad I was able to help you get caught up on the story before Psychonauts 2 came out. As a fan of the Kingdom Hearts franchise I find being able to stay caught up on everything is important LOL. Thanks again! 😁
@@GSCSTRYDER thank you! I do stuff like that to make it immersive that way it really feels like you are watching this through Raz's eyes rather than mine. Anytime I do something with no commentary or no FaceCam I try to animate the character I'm playing as realistically. Or even do like cinematic camera pans and stuff.
@@OversoulGaming you have a bit of that deeper understanding of character presentation. As a film student myself, you might want to check out telling stories, your attention to detail is very appreciated!
I’m more concerned about how raz might not actually be a psychic he might be a psychic that’s more powerful than the others, Think about it he was the only one who was able to resist the psylirum and no other character managed to. And in Psychonauts two he was the only person who managed to help everyone when no one else could
I think one of my favorite things about this series is that nearly every villain is really more of a villain of circumstance. Like there's always something that made them the way they are, and healing that trauma makes them a better person. It's just really neat.
@@BroZilla-vh3tu Well, I mean, technically there *was* a cause for that. Unfortunately what he has is very incurable. You'd have to wipe him completely to get a decent person!
@@BroZilla-vh3tu Unlike other Psychonaut Villains, Gristol came from a high and rich background which allowed him to be the pretentious douche he became. I think it’s possible for him to change but definitely not anytime soon.
They say the best villains are dark reflections of the heroes they face. Loboto is what Raz could have become if he had never heard of the Psychonauts and his family were even less supportive of his abilities
I like to headcanon that Raz never told anyone what happened in Loboto's memory vault. The feeling that what happened to Loboto could've happened to him if his parents were more intolerant or had more connections to a hospital like Dadboto did. That's absolutely horrifying, to think he could've ended up with only part of his brain functioning, driven to insanity by his own family.
@@billlupin8345 They already accepted him, and he betrayed their trust. Unlike the military, the Psychonauts don’t discriminate based on the body, only the mind
well yeah, previously she worked in a orphanage and she loved entertaining and talking to the kids, but one time when she left for food the place burned down, one of the more disturbing things in psychonauts.
anyone want to know that..when loboto says he lost his compass he ment he lost his MORAL compass thats why he feels guilt after raz returns the compass
It’s also that he lost the ability to think ahead. The frontal lobe, which was removed, governs that ability. That’s why he blows up the ship- he can’t think ahead. Raz did give him back the ability to move forward, which is why he was able to look back.
In the name of the All Mighty! Loboto's parents were so scared of him being a psychic, that they sent him to undergo a lobotomy. No wonder he's so messed up: abandoned, dissected, broken.
I recently found this out, there is a reference to Laboto's mental world in the original psychonauts. A kid mentions a nightmare about a bathtub, you get where this is going
Also, from what I hear, Psychonauts had to rush its production at the end (which makes sense, since I feel that the finale was indeed a bit rushed), so I bet the bathtub fight in Loboto's mind was supposed to happen in the original game.
I kinda like how when you dive into loboto’s mind it’s short and kinda emphisizes that you haven’t completely fixed what happened with him, you got a surface level problem solved because you were only able to hit the surface of his memories.
Yeah, but it still impacts him in quite a way! He does get his moral compass back, just…not his sanity. I mean, the guy does try to blow up an underwater base, so he still isn’t all there.
i may be late to comment but if i remember at the bottom of the lake where you fight linda in the first game there's this weird air bubble so maybe that's why?
I love how going into the memory vault I immediately felt that sense of "I don't like where this is going" that I felt with every vault in the first game. And yet I was still shocked at the reveal.
It wasn't exactly accessible. I'm adoring Psychonauts 2 and, back when this came out, would have jumped at the chance to play a new installment to one of my favorite games of all time, but I just didn't have any sort of VR setup. I imagine a lot of the target audience didn't. Hopefully the sequel sells well, though.
I played this myself recently and weirdly enough my favorite part is the little section with loboto at 55:40 . Him popping out of nowhere scared the shit out of me and i continued to be pretty unsettled as he got all up in raz’s face there. It’s one of the few times where a video game has made me freaked out and i actually ENJOYED it. It’s the kind of thing you can only fully pull off in vr and it’s great
Although you do move around the angle a lot when playing, I'm glad to find one that has subtitles and good volume. Plus no talking. Bonus. I really like this game and I would like to see how this would affect Psychonauts 2. Also that twist was so shocking to me, I don't even know that to think anymore.
Michigo Sinister thanks for the compliment. Most of my videos actually do have commentary as let's plays are the core of my channel but I do realize that everyone has different taste so here and there I do videos like this for people like you as well. Diverse content for a wider audience :-)
I'm glad to hear that you understand that there some people have different tastes when it comes to videos. Though, just so you know, I do like Let's Plays but only for certain games. This is the kind of game where I prefer no talking because I want to hear the story over the talking.
Michigo Sinister I agree with it depending on the game. Abzu is another game for example that I think benefits from no commentary. but I also do music videos, challenge videos, no commentary gameplay videos, miniature walkthroughs and sometimes live action comedy skits just to keep everything fresh and draw in different crowds. anyways, thanks for watching! I hope you have a good one
it's 4 hours till psychonauts 2... i can't imagine it's been a 16 years since the last one thank you for playthrough, it was great! It felt like i'm watching a movie
something incredible is just how POWERFUL Razputin's Clairvoyance is. This 10-year-old is able to bounce between minds and still use his powers while doing so without any kind of strain on his part, and when Lili, Truman's own _flesh and blood_ was unable to use the music box to even get a signal, while Raz was able to do it despite a much weaker connection to Truman, his mind crossing god knows how far to reach him, _and_ get through the Psilirium barrier.
Thank you for providing this. With no access to a decent VR system to play this on, I wanted to at least get the narrative. Tim and Peter are a fucking powerhouse, and all the talented staff at Double Fine have once again done a fantastic job of bringing the vision to life!
Seeing Raz being literally pulled down by the water hurt man. Milla, Sasha, and Coach Oleander were at least conscious. Lili got knocked out and Raz was doomed from the start.
I gotta say, they really managed to work with the limitations of VR and still provided such an immersive and incredibly fascinating world. Also love your play-through and thanks for it being non-commentary. Really helped the immersion.

Raz might not be One in a million, he must be one in a BILLION. But it’s not that good. Raz is still a 10-year-old boy and all this committing murder in other peoples minds and dealing with other peoples trauma is not healthy for a boy his age and if he actually loses it and goes insane… he might succeed at killing everyone
On the one hand I’m glad this guy recorded this so I can see what happened. On the other hand I thought I was stuck in my own version of psilirium poisoning watching that slide puzzle, being helpless to solve it
Yeah this was one of those record in one sitting and upload directly type of things. Normally I would edit this stuff but I'm also better about that kind of thing these days.
Funny story though. This recording was actually my second playthrough of this game which is how I was able to speed through most of it and react realistically to things, however I actually did better at that sliding Block Puzzle the first time around. I think I got hit with that performance pressure and panicked. This feels like forever ago now though
The amount of psychological dissection and theory in the comments of a goofy kids' game is why Psychonauts is so incredible. I feel so bad that I just absolutely missed out on it when I was younger. Been watching playthroughs now since I don't have much patience to personally play puzzle platformers nowadays (Any Hollowtones fans? hi
55:30 seriously, this made me JUMP when I played it! Really clever of them to use sound to get you to turn your head. I wonder what happens if you dont?
watching for the first time! i've played the absolute hell out of psychonauts 1 and 2 but I only came to this one after hearing more about it through the psychonauts 2 making-of docuseries. Really fun looking mechanics! wish i had a vr to play myself but i really appreciate the upload so i can experience it anyways :)
@@Dragon_Lair though if one of the trailers for two is correct, not much happened after due to his acute poisoning he probably tried but immediately passed back out.
Great playthrough, thanks for sharing! I really like it when people play without commentary and then have the little nods etc with the camera, i think it's always really funny :D
CC Junes thank you! Yeah I was trying to add a sense of realism to it. Unfortunately I don't do no commentary videos anymore it's all about Let's Plays now so a lot of the people who watch videos like this one don't stick around but that's okay. I'm glad just helping people who don't have a VR headset see this game so they can keep up with the story :-)
Thanks for the video! I would have hated to miss this story (especially with Psychonauts 2 coming out soon) but buying VR gear just for this game was a little more then I could justify. So thank you.
Just completed Psychonauts 100% (again) and watched the whole playthrough of Psychonauts: In The Rhombus of Ruin. I think, I´m ready for Psychonauts 2 (which I also have pre-order).
I'm geeking out over this a little too much. Like, Red Letter Media Rogue One levels of hype. Doctor Loboto came out and I CLAPPED!! I applauded it for being different. IT BROKE NEW GROUND!!!
I love that Sasha is just a total dweeb in this. THE THING ABOUT THE GOLDEN RECORD IS SO REAL OF HIM THOUGH. Nobody gets the golden record (a copper disk carrying an acoustic guitar composition and 116 images to describe human life to aliens, launched into space by a Titan rocket on the Voyager 1 probe in 1977 that will probably outlast all other signs of human life, and perhaps the earth itself, travelling deep in outer space at 35,000+ mph) like me and Sasha do.

@@MrSlowpez10 Yeah, I've seen it. Thanks.
Gee whiz, this looks even more fun than searching for the Milkman.
I am the Milkman. My milk is delicious.
I am a road worker. This is my stop sing.
I am a TH-cam commenter. I often write venomous messages directed at others, but I only do this because I am very sad inside.
I am the joker, I live in a society
@@old.148 I am the Cliche, why so serious
(Watches defiantly despite severe VR-induced nausea)
Exactly
same, just because I wanted to keep up to date with the timeline before Psychonauts 2
I guess watching from my phone prevents nausea
I feel you. Until they develop some kind of stabilization like what my eyes do when I bounce around, I can't play VR.
@@Abdega i think it actually does, often people who have vr induced nausea just get it if theyre wearing a vr headset and moving around
God you can feel the sadness and heartbreak in dr loboto’s tone when he says “I’ve done…terrible things” 🥺
On the one hand I’m glad this guy recorded this so I can see what happened. On the other hand I thought I was stuck in my own version of psilirium poisoning watching that slide puzzle, being helpless to solve it
Yeah this was one of those record in one sitting and upload directly type of things. Normally I would edit this stuff but I'm also better about that kind of thing these days.
Funny story though. This recording was actually my second playthrough of this game which is how I was able to speed through most of it and react realistically to things, however I actually did better at that sliding Block Puzzle the first time around. I think I got hit with that performance pressure and panicked. This feels like forever ago now though
@@OversoulGamingstill answering comments so long afterwards, you sir are a legend
43:00 that golden disc thing is actually real.
Bond style intro?! yes please!
I like how for a point and click adventure there is actually a justified sense or reason why things can float lol
Great play through, my friend! lol, "YOUR BOYFRIEND?!?" little guy had nowhere to run inside the jet!

As a father of a young girl, I can say that that reaction is perfectly acceptable.
I mean there’s PLENTY of time to grill him with questions.
@@timewarpchronos3795 I mean, the boy's got quite the pedigree and with the sequel coming out we will see what her father thinks of it.
@@TheBlackAntagonist 5 DAYS LEFT!!! HYYYYYYPE!!!!!!
@@y3l10wflash6 HYYYYYYYPE!!!!!! is absolutely correct! Psychonauts 2 is going to be epic!
WAILING AT RAZ'S LAUGH AT HIS OWN "NUTTY" JOKE AT 5:09
35:13 Raz: A ROOM WITH A MOOSE!
God, this makes me wish for an Invader Zim VR game.
"Last time we tried to get past this moose, he knocked Billy clean through a wall."
Minimoose...
@@asterixobelix20Good reference and good username.
5:22 "AHH FIRE IN THE HOLE!!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
33:21 "Please be careful with fire, darling."
oof... 😬
Oh. Oh no.
The amount of psychological dissection and theory in the comments of a goofy kids' game is why Psychonauts is so incredible. I feel so bad that I just absolutely missed out on it when I was younger. Been watching playthroughs now since I don't have much patience to personally play puzzle platformers nowadays (Any Hollowtones fans? hi
"goofy kids game"
Not because the game resemble a cartoon that its made for kids

SPOILERS
The moment Gristol realized his plan was going to be much tougher than he thought
Milla: The orphans are gonna die
Raz: *plays with a radio for three hours*
(Jk, awesome video!)
God I love that cartoony 60s aesthetic so much
I swear, Calligosto Loboto is an absolute gem in Psychonauts
Man I really love this world its so fascinating
and this is why I love Raz 19:07
55:30 seriously, this made me JUMP when I played it! Really clever of them to use sound to get you to turn your head. I wonder what happens if you dont?
I imagine the Rhombus of Ruin to be directly in the middle of The Bermuda Triangle.
Lilli: My boyfriend!
Truman: Your *W H A T?!*
51:08 average death grips live presentation be like
watching for the first time! i've played the absolute hell out of psychonauts 1 and 2 but I only came to this one after hearing more about it through the psychonauts 2 making-of docuseries. Really fun looking mechanics! wish i had a vr to play myself but i really appreciate the upload so i can experience it anyways :)
I really didn't expect this to end so sadly. It was heartbreaking when Raz couldn't even finish his sentence :(
“How many fingers am i thinking about”
“Uhh… Purple?”
*”close enough”*
Truman: YOUR BOYFRIEND!?
Raz suddenly scared out of his mind: oh crumbs.
In the case of the pscyhonauts universe, he could literally be out of his mind.
@@Dragon_Lair though if one of the trailers for two is correct, not much happened after due to his acute poisoning he probably tried but immediately passed back out.
awww the part where Harold the rat did not want to leave them for dead was so cute.
I just love that his best thinking is done on the shitter, it's the only place anyone can get some privacy to think nowadays.😅
25:12 my teammates in a group project
Great playthrough, thanks for sharing! I really like it when people play without commentary and then have the little nods etc with the camera, i think it's always really funny :D
CC Junes thank you! Yeah I was trying to add a sense of realism to it. Unfortunately I don't do no commentary videos anymore it's all about Let's Plays now so a lot of the people who watch videos like this one don't stick around but that's okay. I'm glad just helping people who don't have a VR headset see this game so they can keep up with the story :-)
38:30 every time I watch a playthrough with one of these puzzles I wish I could scream the answer, it's maddening
The version of me from 2017 apologizes for not being good enough at a sliding Block Puzzle 😅
Thanks for the video!
I would have hated to miss this story (especially with Psychonauts 2 coming out soon) but buying VR gear just for this game was a little more then I could justify.
So thank you.
"Thanks for the reinforcement, son!"
Lmao
Paging Director Zanotto. (7:07)
13:30 Title drop.
41:14 Fishy business.
1:03:03 Portrait of a dentist.
this
Just completed Psychonauts 100% (again) and watched the whole playthrough of Psychonauts: In The Rhombus of Ruin. I think, I´m ready for Psychonauts 2 (which I also have pre-order).
I would've been so pissed if doctor Loboto was made sane in this. Considering a lot of people wouldn't be able to play it.
Feels more like a character shift here- Maybe 2 could see him redeemed?
Now he’s best of both worlds: Redeemed, yet still crazy.
@@bluethelucario6194 I think eccentric is what he is now, not crazy
But HYPPPPE!!! 5 MORE DAYS!!
@@y3l10wflash6 a spoiler to you , the final SUCKS
but a least there some stuff to do post-game
He has a moral compass in the sequel but that’s about it he’s still our insane weird dentist
Also I realized why Loboto’s goggles are red and green because it represents his parents
Also Christmas
12:25 Oh my goodness, how adorable
5:19 I have no words for this clip 💀
You can see them carrying Raz when escaping.
I laughed at the "fire in the hole" thing a little too late 😂
I'm geeking out over this a little too much. Like, Red Letter Media Rogue One levels of hype.
Doctor Loboto came out and I CLAPPED!!
I applauded it for being different.
IT BROKE NEW GROUND!!!
This brings me back to 15 years ago when I first played Psychonauts. Can't wait to see what they've been cooking-up for the sequel!
I love that Sasha is just a total dweeb in this. THE THING ABOUT THE GOLDEN RECORD IS SO REAL OF HIM THOUGH. Nobody gets the golden record (a copper disk carrying an acoustic guitar composition and 116 images to describe human life to aliens, launched into space by a Titan rocket on the Voyager 1 probe in 1977 that will probably outlast all other signs of human life, and perhaps the earth itself, travelling deep in outer space at 35,000+ mph) like me and Sasha do.
Thanks for uploading this! I don't have a VR device and wanted to experience the story that happens, and you totally helped me with that.
What a fantastic game. Never owned a PS4 or any VR gear. As a massive Psychonauts fan I'm glad I finally got to see this amazing installment.
"AH! FIRE IN THE HOLE!"
*achievement sound*
coach was dropping bars i want a whole album of coach singing
5:55 Awww. 🥺 This is the first I have ever hear Lili crying. 🥺
