Damn, the development of the first game was a lot more gruelling than I thought.
One of my all time favorite games to this day. Even though I have mixed feelings over the Psychonauts 2 news, it can't do anything to my love of the first.
In the documentary somebody talks about making the game progressive. Please Tim, for the love of god, don't inject your politics into the game. PLEASE. (clearly misunderstanding what kind of politics I am talking about.)
Hopefully I am just being assumptive and that's not what the guy was talking about, rather about game mechanics.
I thought this quote from the third video was funny.
"It's two in the morning, why are we hooking up this dialog that three people are going to see."
I've always loved the amount of obscure dialog hidden in the game. Even after all of these years, I'm still finding new scenes.

part of me really wants to see psychonauts 2 be made because the first was so good, but im not gullible enough to give anything to that fig campaign. hopefully it turns out good, but im not expecting too much.
I feel kinda bad for Schafer, after his autistic reputation suicide fiasco, his sloth-like borderline scammy and mishandled kickstarter and the xchan smear campaign, after watching this video I realize that even after all that he still wants to make video games. Not to say that forgives him for what he's done in the past but I can't say he isn't exempt from my sympathy after watching this. Poor guy.

The best example is there's an item toward the end of the game that you literally have for maybe 25 seconds if you do it right. It's just take it from one room and put it in the next room over.
But if you take it aaaaall the way back to camp, everyone will have something to say about it, all with unique lines. Great attention to detail there.
I bought this game over a year ago on sale for a couple bucks but have never even launched it once. I hear how amazing it is so I'll give it a shot one day

Honestly, I lost a lot of respect for him mishandling that campaign, but it seems like most people are jumping to assuming he has some sort of malicious intent, and I think they're wrong and just trying to start controversy where there really isn't any. I think it was just incompetence. He's a great designer, but he's ass with a budget. He just needs someone to manage the development process for him, and someone to maybe reign his ideas in a bit (IE: making Brutal Legend into[I] an RTS)[/I]
