Psychonauts 2 Review Thread

I don’t think so, because even on PS5 it uses the last-gen version and this game doesn’t have HDR on last-gen versions, PS or Xbox.

Can’t wait to play this game!

It’s native HDR … a double fine dev confirmed it on twitter for series X and S

So do play I this in 4k 60 in dolby vision or 1440/120 in HDR my oled C9 can’t do dolby at 120 yet …decisions :thinking:

I wouldn’t even bother with dolby vision for gaming if you wanted 120fps. I don’t think there’s that big of a difference. Personally, I’d go 4k60 for this game anyway

Double Fine is going to end up as a top tier acquistion. They make unique games each time out and I’m happy they’re going to be able to focus in on being creative and not have to worry about the financial side

Great game. Shame Twitter posts about the game is invaded by sony fanboys demanding a Ps5 patch but then calling the game garbage because its not a sony exclusive. Just be a grateful its even coming out on PS4. Jeez

MS definitely saved this game from being half cooked and unfinished, missing stuff that just needed another year in development to live up to its true potential. Acquisitions have good sides…

Theyre a great candidate for making a new IP or reviving a Conker/Banjo franchise.

I want more action adventure platformers. Hopefully Psychonauts 3, new IP and Banjo why not, but I would rather want a Kameo sequel we never got.

Hope they can hire more people to help them, I know they don’t wat to go too big but I guess some 10 more would be great for them.

I’m ok with some studios taking their time to make games even if its 5 years, if the games come out are different and amazing it’s worth the time. Now obviously I don’t want them to stuff around for 3 years then build the game in 2 when they could’ve released it in 2. DF is a studio I’m ok with if they take a bit longer to craft something different every time they make a game so we don’t get stuck with the same stuff all the time.

Honestly didn’t expect fhis game to review this good. Congrats to DF and congrats to MS for allowing the extra time and financial security after the purchase to allow them to make the game they envisioned.

This is turning out to be a really good year for Xbox. :muscle:

Really excited to play what might be the best game from a Tim Shaefer team. I discovered his talent when I played Grim Fandango on PC many years ago. Characters, art and world sucked me in like few games in any genre could at that time. When Microsoft announced this acquisition in 2019, was extremely excited at the potential of Double Fine not having to worry about the business stuff. Looks like that potential is being fulfilled. Now I hope many gamers give this talented studio the attention it deserves and play this game in Game Pass.

tricky thing is they don’t want to work on old IPs, and want to work on stuff they create rather than work on others. Anyways, should be great to see what they come up with next especially now they have the financial security being a part of Microsoft.
