    Psychonauts 2 was absolutely incredible!
    Probably the most creative and artystic game, i've played in along time...
    DoubleFine managed to aproach a really strong topic - Mental Illness. With a respect, while still having a clever humour build into it!❤️

      It hurts knowing we're not getting another until DF have had a long enough break from the series. I'd bet we won't see 3 for a decade.

    The timer and the realization that after you best the level there was no point in trying to beat the time was a stroke of genius. Just like how the was no point in Compton stressing out to begin with.
    Gameplay and story perfectly working together

    I had no idea that the timer had no punishment, but I also didn't stress myself out about it either because I knew I could come back... which lead to me passing the trials without even bumping elbows with any failure state. I got the opposite experience, but it still made the same point! Excellent storytelling, well done Double Fine!

    This game is a showcase in creativity. Great story, humour, art style … deep themes. Just amazing.

    I really hope the game is getting bigger and that we have hope for a 3 game this has so much potential for a series even with new characters, there is just so much you can do with this concept

    Psychonauts 2 level design for each person really reminds me of persona 5 dungeons like the Palace ruler's Cognitions which interprets their biggest desires while psychonauts interprets mental illness aesthetics into the level

      And that is exactly what makes both games amazing ❤️ Wildly different genres, but great products nonetheless. And they share many similarities in terms of exploring human psyche.

    I know this game reviewed very highly but it’s still underrated. This game is an absolute masterpiece in creativity. I don’t think Double Fine is working on part 3 but they need to be. A platformer for adults.

    I loved this level and loved the original concept for The Gods Must Be Hungry. I'm glad they made it into a single level because I couldn't see the prototype's core gameplay loop lasting for a fully developed game.

    if this video just talks about asif's amnesia fortnight prototype (the gods must be hungry) and how this level had less devtime than the others i will be slightly peeved. i shall update after watching.
    update: ok this ruled! i loved seeing the as-of-now-unseen concept art and the look at the cut brainstorm power. i'm willing to bet we'll see more of the toybox world whenever the game's full documentary comes out.

    Somebody: **uses a color lev ball**
    Me: “HOW DARE YOU! **breathes in** “
    The color lev ball is really useless..
    To be honest I think the orange lev ball **the original** is the best one out of all because it has more depth to the original game and the pins just take up a lot of room.. *especially the fact that it does nothing*

    Played Psychonauts 1 for the first time recently.. man PS2 era games were so much better. The 2nd looks like more of the same, so I'm assuming it's also a classic.
