I replayed Psychonauts so I could finally play Psychonauts 2 without any hang-ups about not completing it. I had never actually beaten the Meat Circus as a kid, and this was the first time I cleared it. I think the difficulty was largely a product of being much younger and worse at games, but it was still the hardest and imo the worst part of the game (for being annoying and a bit clunky to play through). Either way, the game holds up very well all these years later.

Psychonauts 2 was fantastic. Just fantastic. Absolutely great game, and humorously it runs better for me than the first game, which freezes constantly (GOG versions for both). Gameplay feels better in basically every regard, story is excellent, combat is excellent (particularly for a platformer), voices and characters are excellent. 100%-ing levels seems less daunting than it was in psychonauts 1 as well, so I’m slowly pursuing that.

I’ve also been playing Dawn of War: Soulstorm with the Unification mod, which has finally been finished (I think?). That mod is like 3 or 4x bigger than the base game files because it adds so much fucking content. New maps, new factions, new gameplay modes, etc. Soulstorm is finally better than Dark Crusade (except the story, I still like DC more for that).
