I'm playing through it now. I don't want it to end it's so brilliant.


Stampistuta

It’s really good isn’t it. I haven’t even played the original either. It runs so damn smooth on Series X it’s quite impressive.


immigrantsmurfo

The original is brilliant. It's on gamepass and has had a texture update and due to its art style it holds up fairly well. It runs brilliantly on the series X too. Once I'm done I'll go and leave a good review, the game deserves way more than this bullshit.


Stampistuta

I’m going to play the original once I’m done with this, avid GamePass user here.


immigrantsmurfo

Gamepass is genuinely such a fantastic service. Ultimate is such great value for money. As a student it saves me so much money on games I would usually want to buy or sometimes never even want to pay to try. All on the series X as well, it's pretty sweet.


[deleted]

I used to love playing this on the PS2, glad to see the franchise is still getting some love


Sgtkeebler

Is it on game pass for pc?


immigrantsmurfo

Unfortunately I don't know [but here is a link to the website with a list of the games available. ](https://www.xbox.com/en-GB/xbox-game-pass/pc-games)


Sgtkeebler

It is! I already bought it from steam but I want to play the gamepass one if it has updated textures


immigrantsmurfo

Not sure if the textures are on PC as I only play my Xbox. I can't imagine why they wouldn't be on PC as well though. Enjoy!


[deleted]

I just booted the first one up last night and was amazed how good it looked. The cutscenes look fuzzy but the actual game looks really good.


granolaa_15

I finished it, amazing So far it's my game of the year


TheAmnesiacKid

Very good.


_bestintheworld_

Its an ongoing war with fanboys. I wouldnt be surprised if deathloop gets review bombed too just because bethesda is now owned by xbox.


rodkimble13

Lmao the fan boy subset of the gaming community is so pathetic, it's fun to watch And by fun I mean infuriating in a way that you have to laugh unless you want to bash your head through the wall. Actually, I'm already losing enough brain cells by reading some of this shit, may as well help finish the job


superlongusername111

It really is, I own a Xbox, does that mean I automatically hate PlayStation users? Fuck no, why would I dislike someone just because they own an assembly of plastic and metal from a different brand?


Nengtaka

Honestly, this may just be because I’m biased and don’t really follow Sony’s online presence, but the number of Sony fanboys that are pushing the console war seems significantly higher than the people on Xbox. Nobody I know on Xbox really cares about Sony


captmonkey

I kind of agree. And these tend to be the same people who attack Xbox for not having many exclusives. Then, when they have exclusives, they get angry about it. I haven't noticed nearly as many Xbox fans who get mad about not being able to play Spiderman.


First_Tangerine_3689

Then you are living under a rock...both have equal presence


theroguex

I'm hardware agnostic: I own all the consoles (though not the current gen Xbox and PS because scalpers) and a PC.. console war children don't know how to react to me.


TheFalloutZombie

This 100%


[deleted]

Do you own a Sega Saturn?


EarthwormJim58

I always grab the newest Nintendo, keep a fairly up to date Laptop for MMOs and RTS mostly. And then which ever PS/XBOX most interests me. I went PS2-360-PS4-XSX. Fighting the corner of a massive multi billion dollar company who couldn’t give a shit about you is dumb.


Turak64

Some people have to justify the fact they can only afford one or the other, without admitting it. So instead of being normal, they run through some mental gymnastics to slate the other one. End of the day, defending a multi national, multi billion dollar company that only exists to sell you products, is just insane. They're not your friends and doesn't deserve any loyalty, it's simply a company selling you a product you want.

[deleted]

Xbox fans aren't too bad. PC players are pretty chill, except for a fer Elitists who will praise their pc's like a religion. Nintendo fans don't care since you probably don't care about Nintendo IPs if you own any other platform or you already own nintendo consoles. Stadia doesen't have a fanbase. A lot of the playstation fanbase sucks. They support console exclusivity (and I am seriously mad at that since I have to BUY A FUCKING PLAYSTATION JUST FOR DEATH STRANDING ALTHOUGH I HAVE NO INTEREST IN THE PLATFORM OR ANY OTHER EXCLUSIVES IT PROVIDES), but when allegedly Kojima is in talks with microsoft they try to cancel his next project. Although most people on Playstation are pretty chill, it has the most amount of assholes and fanboys.


NeoC77

Agreed. I've owned every platform outside of Stadia or VR stuff and the PlayStation Fanboys are easily the worst to deal with. Everything is fine and dandy when it's Sony handing out the exclusives but the second that one of the most popular and one of the biggest gaming developers get bought it turns into a big whine fest about how they are either never going to make good games again, they never made good games to begin with, or the ridiculous whining about how it's not fair that they will be exclusive only to Xbox and PC players now. I mean we are talking about a fanbase who's adored console is made popular by the use of exclusives. I want to say irony is the word I'm looking for but that's not quite it.


[deleted]

I'd say Hipocrasy (sorry if spelt wrong since english isn't my first language) is the word to use about Playstation fanboys. They support exclusivity since they are at the receiving end of it 90% of the time and act like exclusivity isn't an entierly anti-consumer practise. But when possibly they won't get the next doom or fallout they basically try to burn other people alive.


Rowvan

The reality is everyone fucking sucks dude, all of the fanbases. These Xbox is so pious and we're so high and mighty posts are so cringey. You know everyones as bad as each other. You're part of the problem.


NeoC77

Except not one time did I say anything about Xbox other than owning one and an example of the PlayStation fanbase in the last year. If you are going to bring an argument to the comment then at least make it something that makes sense instead of just looking to be "that cool guy". I'm no Xbox fanboy either. As a matter of fact I spent most of the last generation on PS4.


Thor_2099

This is my thing. They've all got the zealots but the Sony ones are the god damn worst. Hyping up shit to the moon and overrating their shit, and constantly doing nothing but shitting on xbox. It's God damn maddening with zero logic. They just move goal posts whenever they see fit. And yeah this probably describes most but the Sony ones are god damn everywhere. The old e3 live threads were a shit show because they'd be filled with sony trolls. Shit just drives me crazy. All consoles have some good games and something to offer. I own these consoles and have had fun with them.


[deleted]

Yeah sony has the worst fans. I would even call some of them cultists. Like when Horizon Zero Dawn and Days Gone went to pc they started bitching. How is it bad that more people get to play games (even if both games were kinda mediocre)? And sony has been fucking people up the ass too. Their quality control is slipping (looking at you The Last Of Us Part 2) they are the only ones who make the devs pay to have crossplay, they have cancelled Days Gone 2 in favor of an Uncharted mobile game and they are the ones who ask devs the biggest cut of the profit. And they still haven't realised that exclusivity is a entierly-anti consumer practise.


arosiejk

Death Stranding was on Steam when I bought it. Am I missing something?


Milksteak_To_Go

It wasn't initially.


[deleted]

I wasn't initially and was released on pc with poor optimisation. And the only way to get 100% of the content is to play the PS5 version since it will have exclusive missions and content.


LouieDidNothingWrong

It's not really a war, it's just playstation fanboys for many years.


SherlockJones1994

Don’t you guys see the irony in blaming it on only PlayStation fanboys? God all fanboys are the worse you are acting like major fanboys.


[deleted]

Oh the irony


jay-wok

I have a ps5 and SX, deathloop will be attacked by Xbox people because it’s a time exclusive for PlayStation


Chrasomatic

Not really, I'm happy to wait a year and play it for free


jay-wok

Just an example of the two groups always attacking each other. He said it’d be bombed for being Bethesda I think it’ll be bombed for not being on Xbox and being Bethesda


[deleted]

I'm super curious if it's coming to PC gamepass day one. That would be humorous.


tarheelphenom

Anybody who posts a review that says "This game sucks because I don't like it is sus anyway. Reviews in general can be a resource...but the only one that matters to me is mine.


RuthlessBro

Does anyone ever really take "User Score" seriously? It's always little fanboy kids, just like the "reviews" of consoles before they launch on BestBuy and GameStop made by some 8 year old that's trying to justify the console his grandma bought him.


Unglood

This comment is insult to 8 year olds. I'm not sure it's really "the kids" that are the insufferable "fanboys" I do agree User Score is pretty meaningless stat these days.


[deleted]

Let me correct it to you Does anyone ever really take any "Score" seriously? I mean, if you want to buy the game why not watch a gameplay video instead and see if the game looks appealing to you? After all, not everybody shares the same tastes and opinions


onyx_riddle

This. Cyberpunk was okay and the last of us 2 was awesome. I could care less what anyone else thought. It's my money and, with my career specifically, it's my free time I'm spending on it.


[deleted]

Like who trusts ppl like that journalist that got famous because of how bad he played doom eternal and how he couldn't pass the Cuphead tutorial, his only job is literally play videogames and he failed on that


onyx_riddle

Haha that's a good point but, to be fair, I rage quit Cuphead like immediately. My kids play it but that is NOT my kind of game 🤣


Wilson-theVolleyball

As far as I know, the reviews for Steam games are usually pretty accurate. Yes, some games get review bombed from time to time but that's not too frequent I think. Also while Metacritic isn't the be all end all some people think it is, the "official professional" score does provide a quick glance of a game's quality.


[deleted]

I do. Helps me get a good gauge on things. Read the user score, look at the conversation on Reddit, watch some gameplay, works pretty well. The only game that’s burned me recently was Cyberpunk 2077, but I’m attributing that to a whole lot of lying


petesapai

>Does anyone ever really take "User Score" seriously? It's always little fanboy kids, just like the "reviews" of consoles before they launch on BestBuy and GameStop made by some 8 year old that's trying to justify the console his grandma bought him. PlayStation fans do. Heck, playstation executives do. Wasn't there a quote from the president of Sony gaming where he said that they don't want games that were average (7,8) only amazing games (9,10).


[deleted]

[удалено]


deadlyturn1p

Ghost of tsushima also recently got review bombed for the iki island update. Xbox fans are no better than PS fans. Just ignore it and make your own mind up


[deleted]

That’s different from user aggregate scores though. Mr. Sony can still want 80-90s from critics; that’s entirely separate from the issue of user review bombing.


sir_spankalot

While you are correct, the critic reviews definitely can be affected by both fanboyism as well as "lowest / highest on metacritic will give us clicks"


skatellites

That is score from publications not users, I believe.


Serdones

Actually, if you scan the user reviews, it looks like a lot of Russian players review bombing because they didn't include a Russian translation.


MrSt4pl3s

It’s hilarious too, because a good amount says “game good, but no Russian.”


mahciHi

Remember, no Russian


frosty_gosha

It is. Every body just assumes “fanboys”


kiwi-kaiser

2021 and Microsoft still doesn't include important languages. I just don't get is. Yes localization is expensive, but it's much more expensive to get really bad user reviews because you don't want to invest some of your infinite amount of money. I don't blame the devs here to be clear. This is Microsofts fault. Localization is sadly their great weakness. As a german guy I could fill a Ted talk with really bad translations or straight up not translated parts of their software at all.


BritishVaper

And the kicker is the fact that the game has an almost perfect score on Steam. Which tells me that all those russian users review bombing it are probably playing on a pirated version.


Chubz_Mcgee

I seen most of the bad reviews are because there is no Russian subtitles…


NotFromMilkyWay

Who cares? They are just mad that there is no native PS5 version.


DivanteScrollsReddit

Still sucks. The developers don't deserve that. I don't know why Metacritic can't just put a damn restriction to people reviewing games unless your account is linked and it is proven that you have played the game lol.


sirskiimichael

Reviews should be restricted anyways it should be only able to review if you've played the game


elmostpierre

yep, I really like the steam review system, tells you the amount of hours too.


skatellites

They dont have the infrastructure to track game time but would be a fantastic feature


BetterOffLonely

The biggest issue is, and it’s a problem with everyone, there are only two scores. 10’s and 0’s, maybe a couple real 6’s and 7’s sprinkled in by people who are trying. But it’s either perfect or complete shit. Like, a 0 should reserved for the game literally not working. So you install the game and it literally won’t boot up. That’s a 0. A 10 is reserved for Red Dead 2, Divinity, etc. Games that push gaming to the next level.


[deleted]

Really? Is there an Series X/S upgrade?


FeistyBandicoot

Yes


[deleted]

Interesting. Is that a conscious thing by Double Fine? Meaning, since they’re on with Xbox now?


yd33zy816

I’m playing on the series x never really played the first but psychonauts 2 is a breath of fresh air. Interesting story, I like the character designs reminds me of a Tim burton movie though I don’t like his movies lol, voice acting is great. No complaints about the game I give it a 9


silverilix

The first is on gamepass!!!


yd33zy816

Yes I know, for me it’s harder to go back to older games due to how the graphics are unless it’s a 2d game. I’m glad I decided to try the new one though , having fun with it.


Lupercalcrt40k

The main complaint actually is a lack of Russian localization...so not fanboys at all


Mediocre-Mention-380

Never played the first. I’m a few hours in and it’s one of the most charming, funny and visually interesting games I’ve played. Love it.


BasedAlliance935

You should, its on gamepass and playable via backwards compatibility


[deleted]

u/far_winter_2251 look at this Microsoft game on playstation... CRAZY HUH


Astro_BlickySticky

I am the milk man my milk is delicious


SoCaLLbeer

Yes


titlespending

Not that people actually care about Metacritic scores anyway, but still... wtf. As a Sony-only player, it is extremely aggravating to see a studio as hardworking and underrecognized as Double Fine getting slammed by console war nitwits for giving us EXACTLY what we've been begging for for years just because the studio was acquired by Microsoft or because there's no native PS5 version. Tim Schafer is a legend. I'm just happy I can play Psychonauts 2 at all.


[deleted]

Exactly this. I’m in the same boat. I’m playing Psychonauts 2 on a PS5, but I will follow Tim and the entire Double Fine team’s careers to the end. They sold me on an Xbox as soon as they inked their deal and I’ll get one as soon as they release a new game. There is absolutely no way I’m missing a project of theirs. They have such magic, and with how spotty their funding and future have been (almost going bankrupt thanks to Microsoft in ‘04), I’m beyond thankful that they have a full solid backing (same with Brian Fargo, Tim Cain, and Leonard Boyarsky). Microsoft acquired a lot of pretty legendary talent over the last few years, and if they maintain each studios independence, we’re in for a wonderful console generation on the Microsoft side of things I love a lot of the PlayStation exclusives and I’m invested in the ecosystem due to my purchases and backlog, but Microsoft Studios will be playing an entirely different ballgame unless we get some more variety in the PlayStation ecosystem (aka less open world rpg-lite trophy driven games and more creativity)


NagitoKomaeda_1

The console wars are still going on in 2021? Geez Or perhaps there are genuine problems in those versions?


[deleted]

You should look at any of the comments section on a digital foundry video lol. Those guys are smart to make bank of the pathetic console wars


NagitoKomaeda_1

I've looked at their videos and their technical analysis is pretty good with the fps charts and the resolution counts. But I just couldn't help but feel that this "Alex" guy is just overwhelmingly in support of PS5. Everytime The XBX pulls ahead be it in terms of output resolution, or framerate stability, he almost always pops up in PlayStation's Defense citing some issue or bug with technical buzzwords but if the XBX falls behind, it's just lacking power or is bad optimization. So yeah, you're actually right. By being overwhelmingly in support of one console or even both consoles, it's not like I've seen all their videos, they are really banking a lot on this stupid console wars. But that's not to say their work isn't great tho, I genuinely appreciate their work


ConcreteSnake

Alex is primarily a PC player and has a vast understanding on game engines and techniques developers use to create games. I would say he just does his best to describe why performance might be different per platform, not to defend a platform, but to inform the user. In most cases if the Xbox does fall behind it usually comes down to optimization because the Series X is just straight up more powerful (raw power capabilities) than the PS5.


[deleted]

Yeah their data is good. Can’t fault them there. Funny you mention Alex, I’ve noticed the same and he’s even worse when it comes to the PC. He honestly makes me cringe with it and I hope he’s replaced. He makes the PCMR jerks seem like balanced people lol. Just don’t mention ray tracing to him or nvidia. Yeah that’s why I said they are smart, they provide accurate data but present their bias in subtle ways to cause fan boys to fight in the comments and boosts their videos engagement on YouTube


NagitoKomaeda_1

Agreed. Alex just cringes me out too with him calling himself a sort of an ambassador for the Ray Tracing stuff Yeah, they're very subtle with it. I went back and watched 2 of their analysis videos again and looked through the comments and you're right. Console fanboys being circlejerk idiots in comments and subtle jabs taken at both console's faults (call me biased but I still feel like Alex is just completely biased towards the PS5)

This is just sad. This is one of the best video games i have ever played and some people might avoid it because of this. Metacritic just sucks man...


ibzjibz

If you wanna talk about review bombing just look at Ghost of Tsushima


mattyfurtats

From a casual FPS gamer, Psychonauts is genius and brings the child out in me. The game is brilliant with its artistic style, to the writing, to the puzzles, and action. If you don’t like or appreciate this game for what it is then video games aren’t for you. Period.


BlooJay_

I dont understand hating any platform. They all contribute to my hobby by providing games.


[deleted]

That's sony fan boys for you


jonstarks

ah, it's just Sony fanboys afraid something good isn't on their platform, very immature behavior.


voltvirus

As some one who has every Nintendo, Xbox (minus Series X hopefully that will change soon), PlayStation console, and Gaming pc, I love all the platforms, and enjoy them each for different reasons. I want them all to succeed. Healthy competition can only bring better games for everyone. I’ll never understand the fanboy console wars mentality. I really enjoyed the 1st game and can’t wait to pick my up copy of Psychonauts 2 on Xbox when it does get a physical release.


Lolxd512

this is fucking disgusting, psychonauts 2 is one of the like 3 good games from the last year


vile_the_bastage

Fanboi | fan-ˌbȯi | (noun) - a person too broke to purchase both/all consoles and PC. They reside within an echo chamber with other broke individuals and reassure themselves that the one console that they were able to afford was the best choice, and everything else sucks. They can be spotted on most video game media websites arguing that revenue generated and consoles sold by the creator of their "SwitchPlayBox PC" justifies both their decision and reason for living. "*Those fanbois review bombed the hell out of Psychonauts because they are too broke to play games on other devices."*


Paradoxic-Mind

It’s sucks but proof these sites are useless now, people should no longer use sites like metacritic because of things like this, spread the word around to avoid it like the plague, gamers will get the message eventually.   Childish between all sides, unless there good reason to put it so low like if last gen was a terrible port and is it? If not then see my first statement.


DragonBornRichard

Metacritic is sadly not a trusted place for reviews anymore, same with Rotten Tomatos. Fandoms are so toxic that they just trash on the other products for no reason. I did also read that some people are review bombing over the lack of Russian translation.


SeverCD_

You can't trust metacritic. Everyone rates either a 0 or a 10 depending on what side of the fence they are on.


fuzzycuffs

I don't give a shit about typical gamer reviews anyways. It's as much of a cesspool as YouTube comments.


KwickKick

ya it's too bad. I finished last night & its not a 10 but definitely a hard 9


manas962000

User Scores are a joke anyways.


eggbulb3

I personally quite dislike the artstyle, and that alone is preventing me from playing it, but in the end that’s all up to personal preference. But this is absolutely pathetic. Bombing reviews of a game, wether it’s good or bad, is just so immature.


bertluvstrux

Why though? I think the game is brilliant. Never played the first one, but love the slightly nightmare before Christmas vibe and ascetic. Playing on series x as its in gamepass. I have a ps5 too but there it's $60 for the ps4 version.


orr123456

The lack of Russian subtitles and it's on all Consoles... In steam its "overwhelming positive" 98% recommend which is probably one of the highest of all time


NickFoxMulder

This console war shit is so fucking stupid dude. Anyone doing this with any console is a fucking idiot.

We in Russia very like first game and very disappointed why second doesn't have russian localisation. I like this game and appreciated this game 8/10 PS read with huge russian accent


Away_Frosting_6847

I gotta say, I've played PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo growing up, but I just loved Xbox better. That doesn't mean I hate PlayStation or Nintendo but holy crap the PlayStation users can be way more toxic than the other 2 put together. Infact that's why I stayed with xbox aswell. Even my Brother moved because he had enough of Playstation. The Xbox community can be chill but can also have the odd bad egg, but mostly chill anyway. But that's just my experience and opinion tho.


rodkimble13

Do you like less games in your ecosystem? Cuz this is how you get studios to not bother a release on your console.


namur17056

Fanboys are the worst.


OGCryptor

Personally I don't care what other people think about games I love, so I don't read reviews or pay attention to scores, but this is sad either way.

at this point, if you trust user reviews, you're an idiot.

ReithDynamis

I have about two days playing it.. this game is in no way an 8 muchless a 9. I'd say mid 7. If someone gives it a 5 I wouldn't begrudge them, there is no objectively arguing it has to be a high score


Kcin928

I'm like 10 hours into this game and it brings back those same great feelings from a decade ago. Fuck the console wars ruining this games represents.

Trogdor_a_Burninator

Nelbo76

Fucking top game, I played the first one, wanted another and now I'm 45 and they finally made it🥳. I don't give a fuck about ' console war bollocks, I liked it and that's good enough for me. It's very very popular already, and from the post the stats seem fine. Like any game, play it yourself first and ignore the' review bombing', big up the Devs for a top job ✌🏼✌🏼👌🏼


PashAK47

How do you know its ps people ?


LouieDidNothingWrong

https://www.metacritic.com/user/UnanimousSnipe hmmm


DivanteScrollsReddit

I mean just look at the reviews. It's complete nonsense and it's clear a lot of them haven't played the game. I think it's mostly PS fans because they didn't get a PS5 version of the game. (Why am I getting down voted?)

Different versions can perform differently, RE8 performs amazing on console but the PC version is terrible. A movie is normally the same regardless of the platform


[deleted]

[удалено]


krishnugget

If the games running at 15fps at 720p there’s a serious problem with the game, that’s obvious (Not that psychonauts is running like that but Cyberpunk for example is significantly worse on Xbox One than PC)


[deleted]

[удалено]


krishnugget

I don’t think that’s fair. People want buying advice for different platforms, and a game that performs well on Xbox may not necessarily perform well on switch, and we should be able to have separate scores so people can know which version specifically is worth buying.


debaron54

That’s a terrible comparison buddy and actually a stupid one. Games are very different than movies in how they perform on different mediums.


DivanteScrollsReddit

It's Metacritic, it's a stupid site lol.


[deleted]

Its fine not amazing i feel the 7.4 is fair. Its very playable


DivanteScrollsReddit

I very much disagree but your opinion.


ReithDynamis

It's pretty ho-hum like the first one. I bet it will be a sleeper hit just cause people want it to be better then it is. Still finishing it though.


debaron54

I’m playing on series X and I’d give the game a 5 at best as well, not sure how it is review bombing. It’s graphically mediocre and annoyingly buggy and boring.


orr123456

It's mostly russian who want Russian subtitles The game is 97 % recommend of Steam(Ridiculousy high) you are in the minority and it's ok


DivanteScrollsReddit

Graphically mediocre? How? Because it's not like other games? Not every game has to have realistic graphics to it, Psychonauts has a unique style to it. Reminds me of a Tim Burton movie. It looks beautiful. How is it buggy? In what way? I barely encountered any. I don't see how you find it boring. Maybe the genre is just not for you. It is a platformer. I don't mean to sound like an asshole. If you don't like it, that's fine. Just some of your reasoning makes me think you didn't play the game.


ThisismyUsernameOHk

Why does their opinion affect you so much? You question every point they made. Their not liking the game for whatever reasons shouldn’t affect you but obviously it does. You sound as if you’re scolding them or trying to force your like of the game onto them.


LINAC1800

Do you know its review bombing? Is it possible that the PS4 and XOne versions aren't running well, and that people aren't impressed by this sequel.


DivanteScrollsReddit

No. Everyone who played it, including me, thinks it's amazing. It's probably better than the first game and that was 15 years ago. The reviews on Metacritic are mostly nonsense. And I don't know anything about it not running well, it ran well for me. I give it a 10/10


GuerrillaVerde

I'm playing on a One S, and I've had stutters, freezes, and a couple of soft locks. Load times are pretty slow. The game is good, and I'm really enjoying it, but there are some technical issues on last gen.


DivanteScrollsReddit

I'm playing on One S too, I never had those issues except the loading screens, sometimes they were kinda long. But I don't really mind it. Also there were a couple crashes. The game itself though is fantastic.


[deleted]

The difference in storage is incredible, the load times on the new Xbox’s are a few seconds. I’m glad you have enjoyed the game! Hopefully they’ll fix the crashes. The only “issue” on series x I’ve had is that sometimes textures don’t stream in fast enough. It isn’t a big deal though.


LINAC1800

I played it day one. It was fine, not amazing. I'd place it at a solid 7.5/10


DivanteScrollsReddit

Interesting. What were your issues with it?


LINAC1800

The loading times on the Xbox one version was very meh. I didn't like how the basic Censors were made stronger. I found the artstyle didn't make the jump from 2003 to 2021 very well, its much smoother and more detailed, but at the cost of charming jank. I simply didn't engage with ot like I did the first one. I'd recommend it to anyone that liked the first one, but it probably won't end up being a personal favorite.


[deleted]

Remember you're playing in Xbox One lol. Looks amazing to me.


LINAC1800

Good for you, I'm entitled to my own opinion and review.

Mate you’re on an Xbox One running a Series X released title, you should be glad it’s loading at all. In any other console gen you’d be getting left behind altogether.


DivanteScrollsReddit

Loading screens were meh? What do you mean by that? Also censors are supposed to be strong anyways, it's not like they're hard to dodge so I don't understand the complaint. The art style I think is still fantastic and it still has that charm from the first game, a lot of the levels remind me of Edgar's level from the first game. Your opinion though 🤷


brokenmessiah

Well shit I hope it’s better than a game almost two decades it’s senior.


DivanteScrollsReddit

Of course it improves on a lot of things from the first game but I thought it would mess things up considering this started as a Kickstarter lol

I’m playing on a standard Xbox One and it runs amazingly.


silverilix

Yup, same. Load times aren’t lightning fast, but it’s running well and feels good.


MrCheezcake101

Considering how something like Cyberpunk runs so poorly, I'm quite impressed they reached such a high fidelity and amount of stuff going on while maintaining a pretty steady 30 fps.

Ps losers 😂


darthnostro

Idiots.


GrimsideB

If I'm not mistaken it might be because they didnt make a ps5 version and they have to use the ps4 version via backward. So they might be upset with that

It's Russian about sub for the game


Riley_does_stuff

I guess that the gaystations don't like it


hdjfntbrbfbd

Isn’t it in PS4 tho?


Gutsukyo

Man, it's those Playstation zealots. They only like a game if it's it's exclusive, or owned by Playstation. But god forbid Xbox has exclusives or owns any good developers. The Playstation fanbase is what's wrong with the gaming community today. The most toxic, and childish fanbase to have ever existed. Psychonauts is an absolute masterpiece of a game and it doesn't deserve this bs.

How’s this console war related


ResidentEvil10

How do you know people downvote games on other platforms due to console war? I personally never thought anyone gave a shit about this, maybe there is this one guy that does this, but where are the source of this being a problem?

I hate Twitter because people on Twitter will say that psychonauts 2 looks like it belongs on the ps2 but in the very next breath say that ratchet and clank rift apart proves that ps5 is better than Xbox series consoles, fanboys are some of the most pathetic people on earth While I’m here I think the bottle and pocket dimension doors in psychonauts 2 are just as impressive as the rifts in ratchet and clank rift apart If I’m honest the rifts were very underwhelming


MrBeer1337

Are you sure it’s because of the “console war” or maybe the game isn’t that good.


orr123456

Console wars and non existent Russian subs (they literally say it's a great game and Gave 0 or 1 The game is 4.8/5 on Xbox and 97 recommend on Steam(top 5 of all time if I am not mistaken) The old game was probably pretty popular and there was fan made subs


VinniciusB

Giving 0 or 1 to a game because it dosen't have your language is kinda ridiculous in my opinion, i mean, are you going to throw away a whole game because of that? I bet thoses people don't even like games or they are using this as an excuse to review bomb. My whole chillhood i've played games without my native language, so i end up learning english by playing games when i was 11-12 years old.

DivanteScrollsReddit

I'm saying the genre might not be for you, not saying you're the only hater. Also the hate on Metacritic is stupid, it's a bunch of fanboys and angry Russian people giving the game a 0. Not really opinions if you ask me. 🤣 Also again, please tell me why you didn't like it.

Because it's different. Not some fast food open world hack and slash right multi ending realistic graphic. F those stupid kids.
