[quote]I'd like to imagine that today, all around the world, the rabid fans of Psychonauts will read this news and have involuntary muscle spasms of joy. Yes, their master, Tim Schafer, has seen fit to throw his wisdom down from the mountain, where it was no doubt carried on stone tablets by the interviewer from PSM3 who brings us the word. Tim Schafer is ready to make Psychonauts 2, saying, "It's really a question of getting a publisher who's interested in doing it." Oh, yeah. There's always that thing. Call me a pessimist, but when the title on offer is the sequel to a game which performed well below expectations in a now less-than-popular gameplay genre, I don't expect there to be a whole lot of interested parties. Still, Schafer points out that greater awareness of Psychonauts through Steam sales and piracy means that there is an audience who will play it, saying,"if all these people were going to buy the sequel it would be a big hit." Perhaps that's enough to get someone to take a risk on Tim one more time.[/quote] [url]http://www.destructoid.com/tim-schafer-wants-to-make-psychonauts-2-187642.phtml[/url] After Brutal Legend, This Seems like it could be good.
Brutal Legend disappointed me. I just hope he can recapture the first game's magic.
[QUOTE=killz2much;26123125]Brutal Legend disappointed me. I just hope he can recapture the first game's magic.[/QUOTE] i think the same, i just think that it could bring in some mechanics from it, like keeping the most amount of Action in Multiplayer (if they have it) and mostly Adventure and Exploration in Single Player.
As long as they can make up as many awesome ideas as in the first that would be great. Seriously, the levels were just so great.
I feel like I'm the only person who enjoyed Brutal Legend. :smith: I'm looking forward to this, though. Psychonauts was such a great game.
We've known for a long, long long, long, long time he's wanted to. The news that he's prepared to find a publisher is recent.
They'd better keep Raz as the protagonist.
Maybe people will fucking buy it this time.
[QUOTE=Dalndox;26124212]I feel like I'm the only person who enjoyed Brutal Legend. :smith: [/QUOTE] I enjoyed it, until it turned primarily an RTS game about 3/4 of the way in that summoned controller snapping rage from within me.
I will kill for a Psychonauts 2.
Please do, Tim, each of your games is amazingly creative and innovative, and Psychonauts was definitely one of the better ones.
I was afraid they weren't going to do it for the longest time, this is a huge relief and excitement.
If this gets made, Tim better not make it an RTS type game
I really liked Brutal Legend, though the RTS portions were pretty awful
i never got passed the last level in psychonauts that was pretty fucking hard the milk man level was pretty awesome i need to replay it

Sadly doesn't mean the cold hearted publishers are ready to sponsor a great game that might not do very well when they can have a mediocre game that all the 12 year olds will buy.
[QUOTE=goon165;26124893]I enjoyed it, until it turned primarily an RTS game about 3/4 of the way in that summoned controller snapping rage from within me.[/QUOTE] I kinda' liked the RTS portions. I only ever had an issue with one fight, and I beat it on my second try. :saddowns:
Just bought Psychonauts. I remeber some videos on it, looks fun.

[QUOTE=MacD11;26132090]Isnt that the Milkman?Oh God Memories.[/QUOTE] God that part took me a while to figure out. But, :iia:
Oh sales won't be a problem. If this comes out I'll buy 12 copies and brutally ignore all of my friends until they do too.

[QUOTE=TheServer;26126238] the milk man level was pretty awesome i need to replay it[/QUOTE] One of the best levels in any game, ever. I should replay Psychonauts this weekend.
