Is this still going to be multi platform since it was announced before the acquisition, or has it gone exclusive?

Psychonauts, Beyond G&E, Abe's Odyssey. Maybe a few more.
Games you hear about on forums wanting sequels and more recognition.
Yet sales roll in and hardly anyone buys them.

Clowns already bashing the visuals based on compressed jpegs? UE4 or not, art direction is the most important aspect of a game's visuals. Are some of you new to the hobby?

This will **** on Mario Oddessey.
For now, it is coming to all Xbox platforms (last gen and current), PC, and PS4.

It will be on Gamepass day one, so thats not going to be a problem.
Yes it's multiplatform. Game was on Kickstarter so they have obligations to backers.
Edit it's Fig, not Kickstarter

Holy crap. First one was one of the weirdest batshit games I've ever played.
The graphics have also improved massively in the time since the first one came out. I like how it looks, and hope 2 can live up to some of the stuff 1 was able to pull off.
Bull level was the best, along with the Napoleonic one. Milkman level was...yeah.
Story was actually pretty interesting, and the characters also had their backstories.
Some of which are more incredibly fucked up then others.
Just no more meat circus or anything inspired by it.

Will I be able to 100 percent this game? Or will my skills have me crash and burn like I did with the Ori games. Get as far as I can only to finish with a lets play of someone else beating the game.
I'm 99% certain these aren't leaks and were taken from recent Fig backer updates. I've seen these areas before already.
Either way, I'm hyped and expect a trailer or update to come out soon especially given Psychonauts 1 was added onto Game Pass. Love the art style and expect great dialogue as you'd expect from Double Fine / Tim Schafer.
Sales are hardly anything to worry about given 1) It's gonna be on Game Pass day 1 anyway 2) It's a MS First Party that has their financial support 3) It's a crowdfunded game via Fig
They've already secured the bag.

Heh nah. It will most likely be good, but that’s an extremely TALL order.

Is anybody really expecting a looker? The original looked average when it released so I expect the new one to look average too.

The lighting in that "plaza" area is doing nice things, I wonder if it's baked or real time.

All of them artsy-fartsy critical darlings that nobody actually wants to play.

Wait a minute? People are comparing a double fine game to insomniac?

I don’t know what’s dumber here:
- console warring a multiplat game;
- comparing Insomniac and Double Fine;
- the obsession with graphics;
I just can’t decide.

This is still coming out, right?
Crazy to think it's been 16 years since the first game, it's also been a long time now since there was a Tim Schafer directed game at all, right? This is the first since Broken Age isn't it? And Broken Age was like, what, 2013 or 2014?
Tim has said some stupid stuff but I'm still a fan of his work.

Microsoft bought them almost 2 years ago that's more then enough time for them to pimp the game with the (almost) unlimited funds this gave them access to and there is still no concrete release date, so you can bet your ass i will expect AAA quality.

Microsoft (or Sony or Nintendo) are more interested in funding their own exclusives. Why would they invest a AAA budget in a indie crowdfunded multiplatform game?

LoL Because they own the studio?
Microsoft buys Double Fine Productions
Microsoft has added another major developer to Xbox Game Studios: Double Fine Productions.The news was announced at Mic…

Sure but to make a ratch and clank quality you have to restart from the beginning
At the 2015 Game Awards, Schafer announced Double Fine's plans to work on Psychonauts 2 using a crowdfunding campaign through Fig.

Most people paid 30-35€ for a copy of Psychonauts 2 (on crowdfunding). Do you think Microsoft wants to sell a AAA budget game for 30-35€?

I swear some of you people live under a rock...
Anyway MS paid for everything including paying off the Fig investors so it's theirs they can do with it what they want.

It looks fine ya.
For anyone in doubt play the first one. It's not about the graphics and anyway chances are it'll switch graphical styles a lot anyway.
I wouldn't be suprised to see a level in lower poly PS1 graphics or a level in 2D animation entirely.
I'm expecing a lot of suprises in this.
What Tim Schafer will give if nothing else is hilarious dialogue.
