    Microsoft Microsoft, what's up? Where is the Russian language?!!! Fix it urgently, otherwise I will go to play perfectly localized Sony games.

    Tell me pony, how can you hate a game like this? The game is awesome, finally we got a good plataformer. It's fun to play and hook you till the end, mostly because it isin't the "go save the princess" type of game, they aboard more complex themes. You see, in this game you go inside the mind of some characters, and each one is completely unique from what i've ever seen. Raz is charismatic,Tell me pony, how can you hate a game like this?

    Good to see the score for this game creeping up to where it belongs. Imagine being such a miserable human being that you review bomb a game you didn't even play because its owned by you're chosen piece of plastic's competitor and they didn't spend money to give you a next generation version.

Imagine being such a miserable human being that you review bomb a game you didn't even play because its owned by you're chosen piece of plastic's competitor and they didn't spend money to give you a next generation version. Anyway, the game definitely has some jank here and there with stuff like the platforming and transitions in cutscenes but that never gets more than mildly annoying. Overall, it's a brilliant game and it's so cool to see what Tim and team were able to do with a real budget. Having a blast with it. Expand

    I had high high expectations for this game even though its free on xbox gamepass, which in itself is filled lacklustre titles, but in the end its a copy cat yet whimsy adventure at best. graphics okay hence the rating but other than that its soon gonna be forgotten.

    I hope that Russian language support will be added to the game. If the developers do not care about Russia, then why should I give a good grade?

    I've waited 15 years for this game and I wasn't disappointed at all. Tight gameplay, imaginative worlds and an absorbing story makes this one of the finest games I've played in a long time.

    This game is really, really good. From the graphics to gameplay, it is a super fun game that will make make you play with a smile in the face, the story is super cool and characters are really special and fun. Double Fine pulled an amazing and polish game. It is too sad that sony fanboys, for some werid reasons, are review bombing the user scores. You are rrally pathetic and sad persons.

    I don’t know why I bought Gamepass for this game. The images and gameplay looked so fun and fascinating at first look, but it just keeps getting worse level by level.

    I loved the first game, but I find this one to be boring, the graphics are alright but nothing next-gen. The story is a meh, if you have Gamepass give it a try.

    Where is the Russian language? Why is there such a lack of respect for Russian gamers, a manifestation of disrespect and discrimination against Russian gamers.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I lost 1 hour of my life playing this game, the gameplay is bad, the graphics are horrible, the story is boring and there is no highlighting moment. Do not get carried away by critical analysis, this game is a failure in every way. Expand

    The game has a lot of text and conversations, there is no translation into Russian, it is not interesting to play.

    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.
