    Boring and generic. If your one of the majority that played the first game and was baffled as to why the game was getting high scores, you will get de ja vu from this sequel.

    Most of the features of the first part have been added and improved. The developers care a lot about the fans of the game, so they kept the voice acting familiar to us from the first part!

    A perfect followup from the Doublefine team. The first time in ages I've desperately hoped for a DLC announcement, so I can shovel more of this series into my brain.

    I love this game, but it does not even have sutiters for my language (Russian), I’m bad in English, but I love this series very much, I put 0 and promise to remove it when the Russian language appears in the game and it’s better with voice acting, but knowing foreign developers, it’s not true.

    O jogo é muito divertido e tem uma vibe de jogos clássicos mas isso não deixa ele ruim, pelo contrário, o fator nostalgia junto com o jogo deixa ele perfeito, fora a diversidade de fases, personagens, inimigos, diálogos, habilidades, é o melhor jogo de plataforma que já joguei

    The best game series I ever played. Great humor, great characters and story. An unusual view of human mind. The gameplay is amazing and constantly brings something new. I will definitely go play it again and again.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Attention! This review will contain spoilers and discussion of plot clippings. Also, I will not discuss the absence of the Russian language and graphics, because even the first part of the Russian language was officially absent, only from the publisher in the CIS space "Buka". Changing and improving graphics is a natural process.

    And now, let's start with the main advantages - the style, compared to Psychonauts 1, although it has become better, is still recognizable. The gameplay is interesting at first, Double fine fixed its mistakes from the previous game. Combat from simple blows and shield, or psi - blaster and invisibility has become more varied. Now there is a wide variety of enemies that, in order to effectively deal damage, you need to constantly change abilities, for the judge - telekinesis and psi - a blaster, for a panic attack - a time bubble and mental connection, and so on.

    The most memorable minds are the TV show "Ram It Up!" and that colorful world of sensations.

    But now - cons

    Plot: nothing more than an attempt to copy the story of the first part, just with unnecessary complication. It turned out badly, because after passing the game there are many questions, and the most important ones are what kind of kingdom of Grulovia is and how can the Middle Ages and high technologies be located at the same time? What was the relationship between Lucy and Ford for? To justify Ford hiding Lucy's bad memories and introducing Raz's dad-to-be? Is this such a lead to the fact that Raz is actually Ford's grandson?
    Why do we need Nick? Indeed, in fact, at the end of the game, he simply disappears. It doesn't just fall somewhere, it just disappears. Moreover, he is nothing more than a complicated version of Dr. Loboto, only he was obsessed with teeth, and this one - on expensive eggs (to be more precise, on caviar) and desires to restore Grulovia with the help of Margulias. Most likely, the developers were too lazy to create a villain for the next game, and therefore they made it so that at the end Nick just disappeared. Or, they didn't have enough time (6 years were not enough for them! What a disgusting thing! It is time for them to reorganize the development team if this happens) to finish this character.
    Anyway, there is a feeling that the characters, their relationships and the last levels after the restoration of Ford were done as quickly as possible, but about the levels later.
    Interns are just blanks that at the beginning did not recognize us, and at the end - abruptly, without dialogue, our best friends. The relationship between the main 6 psychonauts is more or less. Except for Bob Zanotto and Helmut Fullbier's relationship. They serve nothing more than a useless agenda, and the reason why they got married was because Bob liked his singing.

    Levels: All the levels that come after the restoration of Ford are boring and not memorable, contains no collisions in some places and look faded. That's all.

    Abilities: Removed shield, invisibility, and confusion grenades. Nerfed levitation, changed pyrokinesis. Of the new abilities, only the time bubble is interesting, it is used in platforming and in combat. Mental connection as puzzles is used only once - in the second consciousness. The rest of the times are for collecting items, fighting and moving. Mental projection is a thing for puzzles and lulz, at least it's cute.

    collectibles: Safes with memories have become unnecessary, because the characters themselves tell the information from them. In the first game, we were told, using safes, the backstory of those whose brains we visited, and also (if we collected all the emotional baggage) - the creation of these characters as sketches. By the way, about the emotional baggage - in the second part he gives only - just a rank for the complete collection. half - a - drain replacement of brain cans.

    Bosses are scripts that repeat three times. Wait for the enemy to stop attacking you and let the script execute. Regular battles are only for mini bosses, when, as in the first part, half of the bosses had to be beaten yourself.

    Bottom line: the first half was interesting to play, but then everything starts to go wrong. the night I finished the game, I was lying on the couch, my head was splitting and I was angry. thank goodness i got this game at game pass and i didn't pay 60 dollars.

    only for the first half I bet 5/10

    Penso che Psychonauts 2 sia un buon gioco nella sua categoria di appartenenza, e cioè Platformer game! Riprende le macchine del primo, svecchiandole aggiungendo un gameplay molto più fluido!

    For a 1st time player, this is a polished platformer, with world that rewards exploration, with useful items, power ups and side quests.
    The story explores, subjects like addiction, anxiety and PTSD in lighthearted manner, that is eye opening and doesn't make you depressed.

Compared to the first game in which the kids were interesting had good character development (Maloof getting bullied, later on making friends with the Russian kid and fighting back, Clem and Crystal seeming extremely cheerful but trying to drink poison to kill themselves if you stumble on them while exploring).

    The music in the game is forgettable and generic (Grulovia track is good). Psychonauts 1 whispering rock music, lodge music, night music is incredibly atmospheric and makes you feel immersed in the world. In Psychonauts 2 the music in the Quarry area is painful to listen to while looking for collectibles and makes you want to turn audio off.

    There are also several annoying bugs like Raz hanging animation on swings and not being able to collect certain emotional baggage in the Compton level. Overall the game does not have the feeling Schafer managed to create in the first game, the feeling that there is something more to the world and the characters, a certain level of mystery and depth that just isn't present in Psychonauts 2. I rate the game 5/10 as the graphics are nice and the gameplay is good, but the difficulty is a joke, the in-game economy is easily broken, the story is lackluster and feels like a generic Marvel movie. If you enjoyed Psychonauts 1 and want something simmilar I wouldn't bother with this.

    The most unique, creative and fantastical game in years. Tim Schafers mind continues to impress with the best 3D platformer since Super Mario Odyssey. It will be a long time before we see anything top this.

    Really good game. Everything is perfect from the level design, to the characters, humor, story, art style, and so much more. The only thing that isn’t amazing is the combat which is still good.

    This game has been a surprise for me, I love the combination of art and game mechanics making of this an enjoyable experience. The story is intriguing and engaging, Raz as a character is someone you can relate to. I just love it!

    I’ve rarely played anything that is so unashamedly itself. Each hour is different, each character distinct and memorable, each new psychic playground full of surprises

    The user reviews for this game are exactly what is wrong with this website and user reviews in general. Half of them are about the game not being translated in Russian and the other half you can check for yourself. Now realistically this game is not a 10 ( I'd give it a 9 at best, still a great game) but I have to even out the chalk eating basement dwellers who rated this game 1 justThe user reviews for this game are exactly what is wrong with this website and user reviews in general.

    A section of levels incredible total variety in its "missions" with a beautiful background, that does not deceive its graphics.

    It's just the best game of the year until nós for me. Alongside "It takes two" and "Ratchet and Clank", it's a really good exemplar of modern platformers done right. It has a few rough edges, but it's simply not enough to take away the Fun and the masterclass of good level design.

    If gameplay that's unremarkable at best doesn't distract you from a very original artistic & design direction that's painfully necessary in the video games business. And that makes Psychonauts 2 praiseworthy!

    Psychonauts 2 is a bizarre. It's a graphic bizarre, under the tripoid shell of which there is a surprisingly dark core, which forms a great counterweight to humor and lightening of gameplay.

    Every detail in the game shows that, despite the 17-years gap between the original game and its sequel, Raz still holds a very special place in the hearts of Tim Schafer and his team. [Issue#255, p.48]
