    Psychonauts 2 is a 12 an a half hour long 3D platformer and is one of the best games of the year..
    Taking place just days after the First psychonauts game, you play as Razputin, theres a moele in the psychonauts so you set out to at first, sneakily get to the bottom of this..
    I was impressed with how the game manages to not pretend like you magically forgot all of the powers you learned in the first game, you get them all almost instantly with a little hey, remember that thing you can do, that would be helpful here.. as well as introducing new abilities tht make for some interesting puzzles early on..
    And for better or for worse psychonauts 2 feels very much like a PS2 game.. there is no handholding here, The game takes place in a semi open world where you have to find a cast of charcters and enter their minds for the more linear parts of the game.. so you ve to figure out what to do with whatever the previous character told you.. no arrows, no spot marked on the map, just go find them.. but once you do and things get rolling, psychonauts 2 is a blast… now there isn’t as much variety gameplay wise as there was in the first game as you were learning new abilities, so it sticks to straight up 3d platforming with new elements here and there based on the new power, but the game still manages to feel fresh throughout, even throwing you into a cooking show for one level.. and one of my favorite moments when I knew I loved this game was going through this dark forest in search of some bees..
    Theres so much charm here, such a special game..
    My only complaing with Psychonauts 2 is the combat, it just isn’t that fun, you have so many powers but only 4 action buttons so you have to constantly remap depending on certain enemies, and I feel enemies are just so spongy for how much the game asks of you, but there are accessibility optiosn to make you invincible if youre just over a section or don’t care to deal with the annoying combat, but definitely turn this off for boss battles, because these moments are really fun and special and youll be missing out not giving them your all.
    Psychonauts 2 is a really special game full of charm and humor.
    A must play

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Microsoft by putting this game on the game pass has really showcased the xbox game pass as a Potential future, however at the same time due to not ensuring the games are of equal quality on both game consoles has made me sad as I wouldn't have played this on PC but my PS5 and paid more cash for it to own it.

    I kind of predicted the twist. The story is charming, the art in some areas is stunning. The combat is overly difficult in some areas but the game does have an invisibility mode and yes I couldn't be bothered with the nuances of combat. You can remap most of the game's powers to any buttons and its often a requirement. I do which jumping was a little less annyoing in some areas and or you could set an end destination of a jump with a button press and have the game assist your jump (providing it was possible to do it in the first place).

    The Song by PSI king gets interrupted and not finished, which makes me a little sad. - The game is left open for the future which is a good thing. I do hope we see some sought of teleportation ability in psychonauts 3.

    This game however does annoy me as it's not technically 2 as there was the game Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin which sadly hasn't been implemented as a non-VR title meaning there is a gap filled in the story at the start with a cheap comic book.

    The pins allow cosmetic changes which are nice but might have been better if they affected powers in different ways e.g reverse ignite into freeze or ignite to electricity.

    It would have been nice if you could use your doppelganger to collect collectibles from far away by conjuring them on a different platform and using clairvoyance to take control of your clone.

    The game is great in a lot of areas and especially worth playing on game pass but something did get lost between 1 and 2 but I can't put my finger on it. It gained stuff but lost something too. Maybe they needed to develop the side characters more or bring back the old campers rather than make new characters. I rank this an 8 because of the game development's stance of not being equal for both consoles as clearly it would have been better for Microsoft to prove that games they make are good or both platforms and why you should to pick up an xbox over a sony console one day. Death loop most likely will be improved in someway when the exclusivity with sony ends but if Microsoft is smart it will keep it on par with the ps5 version to gain more customers over the long term. Playing this game for a rental cost of 7 is not a bad deal and I would have most likely given it 9 if it was not for some platforming sections or the fact that they didn't make xbox and ps5 version the same standard.    … Expand

    My main problem with P2 stems from the underlying sense of cynicism and bleakness which pervades the characters and world. Sure there's the kooky off-hand humour (which sometimes but not always hits the mark), but too many characters are introduced, and I didn't really find any of them particularly likeable. Some of the levels are overly dark too (vomiting hand puppets).

Some of the levels are overly dark too (vomiting hand puppets).

    It feels like many of the level premises and layouts were just cobbled together during brain-storming sessions where someone eventually said "Yeah, that'll do". Add this sense of listlessness to the "collect-em-up" structure, and the game feels like it lacks structure or drive. Many recent games are guilty of having too many collectibles and objectives to keep you playing longer instead of engaging with the actual gameplay, and this is an action platformer so it's expected, but still, there are LOTS of things to collect in this game and they artificially extend the play time vastly - More chore than fun. Some of the levels feel original, but many are almost re-skinned versions of others.

    For a game where you go into people's minds and literally anything is possible, it seems like there aren't many new ideas here, gameplay-wise. There's a decided lack of mini games (bowling alley with no real bowling, for example) too. It's a shame, really, as I remember enjoying the first, and these single-player platformers can be excellent with a decent story and tight controls, but this seems to be a bit washed out and convoluted. Some invisible walls too and awkward movements, although some of the powers you get are cool. The graphics are fine and the voices and sound are good too.

    Hopefully if there's another, more time will be spent on original concepts for gameplay and levels rather than packing in too many things to collect and needlessly repetitive brains - There's not much point making things look funky and interesting without having varied and fun gameplay to back it up.    … Expand

Now to offer some fair criticism: the overworld does not play into the story at all. We visit Psychonauts headquarters and some of the surrounding area, but there's little-to-no significance to anything that happens outside of a character's head. That's the biggest failing of Psychonauts 2. It turns every character problem or conflict into an unearned, weightless one-two punch. 1. Here's a character with a problem/conflict. Better go in their head. 2. Now that you've gone in their head and gotten some context on the problem, their problem is solved. Once you pop back into the real world, any relevant connected characters will immediately walk on-screen and express that any related conflicts or problems are also solved. It's impossible to shake the feeling that nothing happens in Psychonauts 2, despite a lot of very plot-heavy stuff going on. The gameplay has its quirks and rough edges, but frankly it's the story, characters, humor, and world design that we're here for. And much of it succeeds, despite its flaws. It's just sad to consider that the original Psychonauts' summer camp adventure felt like 10 times the high-flying spy adventure than we got when we actually went to the spy headquaters and met a ton of other spies embroiled in a big spy conflict. Psychonauts 2 ultimately spreads itself a bit too thin, sometimes in the wrong places. But again, it stands to be emphasized: Psychonauts 2 could have twice this many flaws and half as many strengths while still being twice the game that any AAA studio has put out in the last 10 years.… Expand

    I really wanted to love this, but I can't play it.
    Mouse controls are deeply flawed. They're not 1:1 - what I mean is, they have a certain sensitivity when you're moving the mouse in an angle in front of Raz, but if you move more the sensitivity gradually decrease and you need a bigger movement (ie doing a 360°).

    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.    … Expand

    Juego aburrido y sin sentido. Parece un juego de PS2, con gráficos pobres y físicas mediocres.

    Han intentado hacer un juego para pelear contra Ratchet and clank Rift Apart y lo que han hecho no le llega a Ratchet ni a la suela de los zapatos en ningún aspecto. Juego lamentable.

There are also collectables shoehorned in which the game really wouldn't suffer without, but this is pretty common for anything within the last 15 years. All in all, if you have XBox game pass on PC, it's well worth your time. If you have to buy outright, I'd wait for a modest sale. It's probably worth a good $45. That said, it's refreshing to play a platform/puzzle game with a relatively big budget on a modern machine. Of course there are plenty of small indie games in this genre. However, the top tier fare is typically some variation of fight/shoot/open world — which can get pretty old — or multiplayer — which doesn't particularly interest me as I have a full-time job and don't enjoy being pwned for 13 year-olds with lots of free time.… Expand

    This has to be the worst platforming I've experienced in over 10 years. Just sloppy, not game mechanics. Feels like a game from 3 console generations ago. I made it about 30-60 minutes in before giving up, the story seemed fun and zany.

    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    … Expand

В итоге получается, что рассуждать локализацию-это глупо, просто глупо! Ладно в первой части есть русская локализация, но в Стиме она попросту нету, и что в этом поможет, правильно, самим скачать эту локализацию! Приведём пример, Spyro: Reignited Trilogy-без русской локализации, но её можно скачать (кстати, MechanicsVоiceOver показали трейлер русской озвучки), Crash Bandicoot: N.Sane Trilogy-тоже без русской локализации, но также можно скачать, все части Jacbox Party Pack-тоже самое (каждую локализацию по вкусу добавляете)! Так что ребят, если не будет русской локализации, то будем ждать релиз либо от этих людей (я об MechanicsVoiceOver), либо если вы мечтаете также делать русскую локалицию, то можете это делать самим, собрать людей для озвучки, программировать, а ваши бомбинги, оставленные вами не идёт ни в какие ворота!

    Psychonauts 2 is the very, very long awaited sequel to Psychonauts, a game about a kid who ran away from the circus to go to a psychic summer camp. It was a quirky 3D platformer of the kind that existed back in the day, but which pretty much disappeared.

    Come 15+ years later, Psychonauts 2 was one of maybe two (if you’re generous) 3D platformers to come out in 2021. How times have    Psychonauts 2 is the very, very long awaited sequel to Psychonauts, a game about a kid who ran away from the circus to go to a psychic summer camp. It was a quirky 3D platformer of the kind that existed back in the day, but which pretty much disappeared.

    Come 15+ years later, Psychonauts 2 was one of maybe two (if you’re generous) 3D platformers to come out in 2021. How times have changed.

    Set immediately after the first game and the VR-only Rhombus of Ruin (which isn’t necessary to play, as the game does a recap of what happened during that game), you get to Psychonauts headquarters, only to find out that you are not, in fact, a “real” Psychonaut, but actually an intern. But trouble is afoot (or is that abrain?) at HQ, and as things go on, you uncover a bunch of new secrets that tie back into the first game, as well as expand the universe of the series.

    Psychonauts 2 is a 3D platformer which alternates between real world segments, in a hub world, and going into people’s minds and exploring their mindscapes. These levels are where the real meat of the game is, and are both varied and creative… sometimes.

    See, the problem is, this game varies between “this is a really cool premise for a level” and “this is just a trip through memory lane… again”. This is a problem, because some of the levels are, frankly, only okay. For every level where you go into a quirky cooking show or fight your way through a hospital that is also a casino, there’s a level where you walk through a bunch of quilts and see memories, or walk through a long hallway that consists of a bunch of memories and the locations they took place in.

    This is particularly odd as some of them are of very significant people and events. The first game’s levels were not always the best, but they often had very memorable premises; however, many of the levels in this game are pretty forgettable, even if the game is a bit improved mechanically.

    The humor of the story as well feels weaker. The first game was very Saturday morning cartoon and was very silly, and while this game is also silly, it deals with much darker subjects – like fictional Eastern European dictatorships – that the game ends up dwelling on for a very, very long time. The first game had some darker subject matter, but mostly was lighter and more quirky; this game spent too long in the darkness, I think, and suffered for it.

    It’s not that there’s anything wrong with more serious games – I’ve liked a number of them over the years, after all!

    The problem lies in the fact that the game is fundamentally relying on a bunch of rather silly character designs and a rather silly world, so throwing in too much serious stuff feels like the game is at odds with itself, as you have a bunch of silly-looking characters talking about something that was essentially genocide in a game that isn’t really sure if it is for kids or not.

    All that being said, I thought that it was an interesting experience overall. I did guess the major plot twist very early on in the game, but a number of the levels were interesting, even if some of the others failed to really deliver as interesting of backdrops. The overall platforming was okay, though not amazing – the game is easier than the first game, and more consistent in its difficulty, with nothing like the first game’s Meat Circus floating around to cause you trouble. You have infinite lives and an enormous amount of health if you bother buying the upgrades and searching around a bit, and as a result, the game itself is actually very easy overall. There are some pits you can fall into, but I rarely fell in for any reason other than trying to make jumps I wasn’t supposed to be making.

    The powers you get in this game are decent, but the limit of having only four equipped at once is annoying; you basically always need to have the levitation power equipped due to the float it gives you, and once you get the time power, it is so good that you’d be a fool NOT to have it equipped. That leaves you with only a couple power slots to play with for most of the game, and as a result, some powers ended up getting used far more than others, though all of them were useful at least sometimes.

    The platforming was decent, which is an accomplishment for a 3D platformer, but it never really rose to the level of something like Super Mario Odyssey. Still, it is okay, and better than games like A Hat in Time or Yooka Laylee.

    Overall, this is a decent but not amazing sequel to an older game that had its flaws but also its positive quirks. I liked it well enough, but it’s not the “must play” game that I think it seemed like it might have been at one point. Still, if you did like the first game, this is good enough that it is worth getting; if you haven’t played the first game, and you like 3D platformers, this might be worth a look.    … Expand

You have to make the badges interesting or innovate in ANY WAY since 2000. It only proves the GamePass is a value, because just throw this game in the trash otherwise.

    It is worse than Psychonauts in every metric. Story is mediocre to charming and platforming is a fail and bad across the board, water kills you because story? why even have water, oh right the trash story mechanic... They just re released the same game with no real innovations and a still bunch of mechanics that should have just been reduced to fit onto a controller or keyboard by default. Oh unless you think **** canoe mechanics that only exist to shore up the story element, that only exists, because why innovate when you can lean into old **** design from 2005.

    Why am I constantly swapping out abilities that do not really matter because the developer could not be bother to design a better system. It is the Balan Wonderland problem. It is only a real problem for bad developers that are not smart enough to limit game design. It isn't even like they have too many abilities for a controller or keyboard, but it is like they limited a good control scheme because they live in the past. Almost like every design choice was artificially restricted because art... Psychonauts 2 is a cashgrab and a shame because the first game was a industry game changer, this one meh as meh can be.

    GamePass won this round and hopefully DoubleFine won't deliver another Costume Conquest/Broken Age (multi chapter promise shoved down into just a second mirrored chapter game because bad leadership)/SpaceBase (Because again **** you didn't pay us enough) and proves Tim is dead. It seems like his credit goes down at least one score with every release. As long as it is on GamePass, why not. Just steer clear of the Full Throttle and Grim Fandango remasters trash. I want to feel like I am paying for something. At least Nintendo makes it outstanding, not just like even side to side, can you even tell for 5 times the price. To be fair, Nintendo charges 20 times the price. But if this is the metric, barely an upscale with no difference. Nintendo every-time, because at least Nintendo pay a team of people to **** me. Double Fine just ****s me without paying anyone regardless.    … Expand

    - XB Game Store on PC version of this game sucks but Steam doesn't have any issues apparently so purchase it on Steam if you can.    … Expand

    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.
