    Se desenvolverem um nivo Conker ou Banjo, tem que ser nesse ritmo, Psychonauts 2 se mostra o melhor no seu gênero, boa jogabilidade, gráficos e uma boa narrativa com alívio cômico, um dos melhores jogos desse ano sem sombra de duvida, a double fine mais uma vez surpreendendo com um do seus títulos consagrados

Complaining about lack of dubs is some serious weeb ish.

    This game was made in the U.S.
    It only has one language; The dominant language in the U.S. (and the world)
    Plenty of MAJOR games don't have alternate languages, yet an independent studio must be held to higher standards?

    To phrase it as RUSSIAN being the only language requirement to raise the rating means you don't even care about other languages;
    What about Mandarin, Hindi, Spanish, French, Arabic, and Bengali? These languages are all more popular than Russian. Why are specifically Russians bombing this review?

The writing is even more refined, it's dark, witty, and has an extra layer of depth we hardly see in gaming ever. It's truly a masterpiece and a very worthy successor to the original game.

It has an extremely unique level design and really takes advantage of the 'going into other's minds' concept that worked so well in the first game. The characters are extremely unique and interesting and have that awesome Tim Schafer quirk and amazing comedy. The combat has been smoothed out and is actually challenging compared to the original where you can't just melee stun the enemies in one chain. It forces you to be diverse with your arsenal and use all of your powers, something the first game didn't try as much. This, along with all the new enemies, infinitely improves the combat. Along with that, there is just so much to do and explore. You have all these collectibles, a fun upgrade system, and an interesting story. The art style is amazing and Psychonauts 2 is an improvement of every single core concept from the first game that made it so good in the first place. It is breathtaking and relieving to get a sequel that is just... Better, in every single way, compared to the original which was already amazing. I have no idea what the other reviews are talking about and why they are review-bombing it for no reason. This doesn't feel like an old game at all and I think many of the reviews are people so extremely upset the game wasn't localized to every single language in the world that they give it a 0/10. Ignore those reviews, this game is an absolutely wonderous masterpiece and is one of the best games I've played. By far it is the Game of the Year for me. Period.… Expand

    Muy entretenido, a pesar de que no le tenía confianza porque lo veía muy meh, lo estoy disfrutando, habia perdido la fé en los plataformas y pensé que Ratched y Clank me devolvería a mi infancia con los juegos plataformas noventeros, y quien lo hubiera pensado, termino siendo Psychonauts 2 el que me regresaría a aquellas épocas de los 32 bits

    The humor in this game is a win in it self, the art style is a huge plus for me. The world building and people all are different in their own way. Good game and a possible GOTY

    Acabei de platinar o jogo e posso afirmar que esse jogo é simplesmente incrível. A história é épica, a gameplay é bem superior ao jogo anterior e a qualidade dos mapas é consistente ,diferente do psychonauts 1 que tem mapas FODAS e mapas horrorosos. O estilo gráfico é interessante e bonito.

    in an industry that became soulless and creatively bankrupt Psychonauts 2 stands out as a beacon of light there is so much to unpack but il keep this short and simple, one of the earlier levels of the game is a Casino/Hospital hybrid that takes place in a rubik's cube this is just one of many incredible levels this type of creativity is pretty much nonexistent in most Triple A games.

    Also the writing is top tier which is what you can expect from a tim schafer game from likeable characters, cleaver dialogue, well animated cutscenes and humor, but the biggest surprise for me was how the game tackles mental health and empathy which is kind off incredible to see in a game like this especially in a genre that isnt known for story telling.

    People have been waiting for Psychonauts 2 for 16 years and its almost impossible for it to live up to the expectations but the end product not only exceeds these expectations but even defies it in the best way possible.    … Expand

    Great game. The controls are good, and the psychedelic story telling is amazing. The art style reminds me of something out of a Tim Burton movie.
    Best platform game of the last decade. smart, great graphics and gameplay! You need to play this!

    This game is so much fun. And funny too. I was afraid the artstyle would be an issue but I actually love it. It’s charming. Can’t wait to see if they make a third one.

    Psychonauts 2 is a superb sequel that appeals to both long-time fans and newcomers. With a engaging story full of twists and turns, excellent witty dialogue, and a gorgeous visual palette, exploring people's minds has never been so fun and thrilling.

    Psychonauts 2 managed to restore my faith in the genre of 3D platformers. This is a creative volcano spewing ideas left and right - it can make you laugh, it can make you cry, it can make you think. And it will definitely make you have fun.

    Psychonauts 1 is the perfect example of the term cult classic, and Psychonauts 2 has created another masterpiece that I am only assuming won’t receive the attention it deserves. They have perfected and expanded on their original idea in every way and created a world full of heart and fun. It’s been well documented that the last few years it took to bake were used to expand the boss battles, and finely polish the areas that were complete. It’s clear that the added funds from being a Microsoft studio were put to good use and the team at Double Fine should be very proud of what they have created. I cannot wait to see what they create next.
