I always interpreted Boyd's breakdown as a learning experience for Raz and it's what facilitates his growth later on in the game and in the sequel where he's more attentive, accommodating, and more empathetic with the people whose minds he jumps into. He's ultimately a well-intentioned kid who genuinely wants to help people but he got in over his head with Boyd due to not treating him with the empathy and respect he so desperately needed.
@mackielunkey2205
@mackielunkey2205 Жыл бұрын
I really liked how Raz has a "innocence to experience" character arc. His arc one of the best character arcs in video games that involve the main character of a series (or even a single game) changing their values like how their video games are changing values, and become better people in the process. I love how Psychonauts does it: in the first game, Raz is surrounded in an environment with a bunch of kids who aren't as smart or confident as him; he's a prodigy compared to them, and not expected to understand the rules. But in the second, he's in an environment surrounded by equals who are just as (and even more) gifted and trickier than him, and it gives him a genuine challenge, with different rules that he must adapt to, though he eventually does prove himself and did what other Psychonauts couldn't do in the past.

I'm guessing the reason why the bad mood can only be defeated with clairvoyance is due to input from the psychologists who were brought in for the game. The way to combat bad moods in real life is to use empathy and help the person talk through their feelings, NOT lashing out at them- so its good for realism and symbolism, not so good for gameplay

The enemy design is one of my personal favorite things. Every wonky creature you’re fighting isn’t just designed to be the average goblin, it’s an ACTUAL CONCEPT of the HUMAN BRAIN. You’ve got the standard-issue censors that just want you out cause you’re not supposed to be there, you’ve got the ooey gooey doubts that hold you back and slow you down, you’ve got the absolutely overwhelming and terrifying *HOLY FUCK* panic attacks, stuff is just great. Like, animation, design, everything.

I want to highlight the importance of Double Fine taking the time to acknowledge in that disclaimer about how the game is not making fun of mental illness, but in a way celebrating the abilities to empathize and to heal. Not to get into the weeds but I am diagnosed with moderate PTSD (downgraded last year from "acute or severe" PTSD, woo! /s), and at times I find certain games to be difficult to play because of it. But the fact that Double Fine intentionally makes the game about finding yourself amidst chaos and reconciling in a healthy way is really important. I can even say that Psychonauts in some way helped with my own case! Still waiting to hear if my therapist agrees. But yeah, thanks Double Fine.

I feel that the Bad Mood necessitating Clairvoyance to beat them makes for some good combat encounters when they are accompanied by other enemies, meaning that you probably won't try to take them until the rest are gone, and the Bad Mood has some mean attacks that are harder to dodge when they're not alone. Their basic projectile bounce around the place and sometimes feels like it's homing in on you and their super-attack has a higher chance of hitting you when you're distracted. As for Clairvoyance outside of combat, I feel that they should still indicate that we should use it when it's something that isn't gameplay related, like seeing the evolution of the bacon guy's vision after his hunger for the stuff has been satiated or what the Ball of Light sees right after it gets into a body again.

If you go frame by frame through 8:12 you can actually see the drawing of the tooth guy stay in place for like a frame while the background popsicle stick moves riiight before the scene change. So I'm guessing what he did was film the two popsicle sticks on the one shot, with the one on the right just being a blank piece of paper, then drew the tooth guy digitally with a realistic marker-like brush and tracked it onto the plane of the paper with a convincing blending mode. Although there's a weird line in the top right corner that moves with the drawing, so it looks like there's something being masked that extends past the paper's edges which kind of confuses me because I'm not sure why you'd need to mask anything on there at all.

When you've been lied to for years and you don't want to know how or why. Tim Schaefer is a chode who can't handle finances and hates you unconditionally. Gamergate is simply not what he and every journalist under the sun has portrayed it as for the last 7 years. But of course, being it was a consumer revolt directed against those with direct editorial control over the narrative, a narrative was spun in their favor. However they haven't ever forgot the painful scar of a large amount of people saying 'Enough is enough with corrupt nepotistic so-called enthusiast press flagrantly push IDPOL in every review they make, take money from corporations or literally have sex with indie devs for favorable reviews or to shoot down competing titles for the same reason. Enough with people that openly hate video games and the people that play them because they think they're better than both because they have a journalism degree.'

People don't really care about the facts though, just whatever fits nicely into their narrative and after enough time has passed seeing anybody still be passionate about it paints them immediately in a bad light because the sentiment is that everyone else has already moved on. So long story short, nothing good was learnt, everybody misunderstood each other and we will continue to make the same mistakes, as ever, because people just don't care. Happy New Year folks!

I was on the fence about this game but will *definitely* get it now! ...and a couple of the ol' NFS games too come to think of it. Hoping you'll make a sequel to that so I can enjoy your creative criticism on it. With how thoroughly you seem to have played to games, I wonder if there's any recent installments that are worth our attention.

Ya know Noodle, it’d be cool that when Silksong comes out and you’ve gotten time to play and enjoy the game, you could do a video talking about recent metroidvania games, & talk about Silksong & Metroid: Dread. I know you’d probably not want to do a full review of Dread, and I get the feeling that in a video, you’d wanna keep thoughts on Dread short and quick, so that feels like a good opportunity to talk about your thoughts on both good games. Edit: Actually, something even better you could do (and before Silksong comes out) is talking about recent games from franchises thought dead, like Psychonauts (that would be brief), Metroid: Dread, and others. Hell if you take long enough maybe you could add F-Zero to that list. Maybe you could even mention Kickstarter games like Omori, where people weren’t even sure the game was going to exist.

Tldr: First game good, Second game better. I remember playing through the first game for the first time a month before the sequel came out. While I loved its quirkyness and overall story. The gameplay definitely wasn't the biggest highlight for me. Then I played the sequel. Holy fucking shit it was like night and day. It felt like I was grinding the gameplay to get to the story in the first. That shit flowed so much better in the sequel and I never had moment where I was like ugh. I would also just stand in awe at each new environment. They ranged from good to great before in the first but they were obviously limited by the technology of it's time. The combat was also a lot more fun as well. Overall an absolutely amazing game from start to finish for me. It lived in my head rent free for a long time after I finished it.
