It succeeds, but in doing so it feels heavy and clunky, has it stayed in the past, without jumping forward. It succeeds, but in doing so it feels heavy and clunky, Psychonauts 2 try to complete the story of Razputin where it was left 16 years ago. ![]() Psychonauts 2 try to complete the story of Razputin where it was left 16 years ago. ![]()
