I am so damn excited for this. GOTY

Can't wait. Really look forward to the full development documentary some time post launch

This video makes me a little bit scared about the quality of this release build. 😅

Also, I just hope it's really good and not that reviews come in and it gets 50s and 60s at max or so. That would hurt after the end speech of Tim.

 

[Kalor]

I saw that title and thought there was going to be an extremely last minute delay. Excited to play it next week

It's too bad not every lead hand is like Tim, seems like he has a good sense of humor.

It's like this for every game trust me. Half the video was taken during June/July too it seemed based on the bug dates in triage. And there's the day 1 patch!

The previews sent out a while ago were very optimistic, so have faith

 

[Winnie]

Super emotional video, and they are really confident with they work done with Psychonauts 2. GOTY.

My week with Psychonauts 2 was bug-free, the game has potential for game of the year

Opposite feelings here. Any software developer can tell you that if the conversations you're having close to launch are like the ones in the video then you are in a great position.

This was awesome. I cannot wait to dive back into the world of Psychonauts, and the team seems very proud.

Tim said the MS acquisition was very "limited integration" and you can kinda tell by the video. No Microsoft Teams, still using Slack and Zoom.

 

[GoldenFlex]

Hoping with the MS acquisition we will see more big budget DF titles like this.

 

[vixolus]

Reminder: Review embargo ends on Monday 23rd. Two days before launch!! That's some confidence.

 

[Spirited]

Got teary-eyed towards the end of the video. Love seeing DF and can't wait to experience the game next week.

Hahahhahaha, that PowerPoint slide about the true content lock date, beautiful! 😆

 

[chuey]

Beautiful video. I'm so excited for this game. I took the whole day off to play it. Can't wait.

Also, Jira, Slack, & Zoom...the three horsemen of working from home. haha I'm surprise they are not using anything MS.

 

[Eternium]

Really hoping that Microsoft acts like they did with Ori and allows this to come to Switch sometime soon. The game looks absolutely incredible and it deserves massive sales.
