If you've played the first Psychonauts, how is this story- and jazziness-wise compared to that unique gem of a game? Is it worth being called "Psychonauts"? I mean, seeing as you've 100%'ed it and are still excited about it speaks volumes, but I guess I'd still like a straight answer :)

Dibz summed it up much better than I could ever! It's so very much deserving to be called a Psychonauts game, it's lovely all around and so well written. All the characters have developed a lot, plus the level designs are very diverse and so much fun to explore as well, it's really got that signature Double Fine charm to it, but indeed it's all in a different way than the original game. And also as Dibz said, that's not a bad thing! It's just a product of its time in the best way possible.

If someone told me "I liked the original better" I would totally see it. Personally I don't know which one I like more, none of the levels are up there with the Milkman Conspiracy (but what is?), however one of the levels were extremely personal to me as someone who struggles with addiction and substance abuse, it was a very comforting journey and I respect the writers for writing it the way they did. For me the two games are tied, I can't pick a favourite.

No matter tho, if someone liked the original Psychonauts, they'll most likely love the second. It has something for everyone.

I've told myself many times if I ever publish a commercial game, I'll also pull off something like this. Pretty cool imo!

I used the Windows version of this launcher when I played FFXIV, and even if the official launcher gets fixed up I highly recommend using this one anyways. The mod support it enables is stellar!

No way. NO way. I had to pinch myself!

Happy day!! I used to play so much Re-Volt on my first PC 💛 Snagging that for sure.

Still a massive fan of both the Enemy Territory games, anything that brings more attention to the series is great news in my books :D

Quoting: pete910:huh:
So you can drive through your local town whilst listening to the local radio station ?

Precisely this! I just realized what you meant, I didn't realize when I wrote that sentence but "positional audio" is the term I used for 3D audio (sound effects), not geolocating radio streams. My bad! :whistle:

You can add any online radio stream you want. I manually switch to stations that are actually in the country I'm driving in :grin:

Quoting: EhvisDoes it have any special controls?

Not really, just come as you are! I use mouse and keyboard to play the game with and without my HMD on. In terms of the experience itself it's quite comfortable once you tweak it to your liking (and computer's limits).

I tried it with a G27 a few years ago, but in ETS2 specifically I actually prefer mouse and keyboard because there's so many buttons you need to keep track of. Noticed on your Steam profile you play ETS2 as well, so you probably know what I mean.

Positional audio works a charm. Nothing beats cruising the Autobahn in rainy weather while using the game's internet radio function <3

Ahh I'm excited! I unironically love this sim, especially in VR :D
Massive respect to SCS for also serving a fantastic native port
