Psychonauts 2 is now Double Fine’s top selling game

Probably expected as it's probably their most high profile game of all time, and the rest of their games seem to be cult classics rather than sales behemoths.

Still, congrats to DF on a great game.
 
Awesome to hear psychonauts 2 did well, I was pleasantly surprised how good it was, I genuinely liked it a lot more than expected!

Definitely right near the top off my top 5 games last year.
 
Jesus that Tweet. "My leadership..". What about the rest of her team?
yeah, jesus christ. Im feeling some second hand embarasment reading that. Dozens of people make the game and she takes credit for all of it. And this is the first time im hearing that this person exists. Have no idea who she is

Sales seem to be in the 2 million plus if its the best selling game. Not bad at all

She's not taking credit for the game, she's listing her accolades working for the company, something you do on a CV when you're looking for work.

Thats a tweet, not a CV. Or are you treating this tweet as making herself available ?

What a narcissist. As if making a game of this size is the work of one single person.
While working, I have seen many times a good team pulling out great achievements, despite having a moron for a leader.
As far as we know, their team made a good game, not because of her, but despite of her.

Thats what the first tweet is implying. She left the company and is looking for work.

I know this is hard to believe but yes, people treat twitter and other social media as places to promote themselves, network, and find work.

I much preferred the first Psychonauts tbh, woke agenda spoiled the sequel even further, but even without that, it just wasn't as good as the first game. Pretty though. Yeah she sounds full of herself.

Precisely.

It's not a CV, but it's probably geared to the same purpose. Make her look good for future prospects.

People use Twitter a lot for recruitment. Pretty sure every game studio out there has posted jobs on Twitter in the past. Makes sense to put your selling point there if you're job hunting

Well a good leader credits their team and not just themselves. The Tweet is embarrassing regardless of the context.
 
Well in your next job interview don't forget to thank everyone on your former team and give them proper credit for everything on your resume
A Tweet is an interview now?

I actually kind of do that, for two reasons. It shows I don't have an ego and I'm a team player. Within that framework I'm still bigging myself up though.
 
Game was awesome, some of the levels were straight masterpieces in level design / storytelling. I'm looking forward to their next work, hope they don't fall in the AAA trap.
 
They aren't sales. Using this is downgrading Double Fine's achievement. If it counted number of players or engagement then I'd agree with you.

Delighted for the studio. Double Fine have made great games and need to be rewarded for it.

Haven't had the chance to play Psychonauts 2 yet, but congratulations to Double Fine for their success. They've earned a hit game after all their efforts.

I would recommend prioritizing it, it's a treat. There are plenty of platformers out there, but this one oozes… style.
 
"My leadership resulted in..."
Very humble person as it seems.

That's what I was thinking when I read it. Had nothing to do with anyone that created it or anything like that, it was all that individuals leadership. Have no idea what this persons personality is like IRL, but the tone used here was a bad choice.

Impressive considering it was on GamePass. Of course "highest selling Double Fine game" is not an *especially* high bar, but Psychonauts was their biggest game in a long long time, so there was a lot resting on it.

Interested to see what they do under Microsoft's stewardship.
 
I hated the game because of how bad the humor, gameplay, and pacing were, but I can appreciate how much other people can enjoy it, so I'm happy it did so well. Now we need Gamepass to do for other AA games like it did for Psychonauts 2 and give them tons of access and exposure in front of tens of millions of gamers.
 
Still need to play it. Absolutely loved playing part 1 last year. I think I've had enough distance that I'm feeling hungry for part 2 finally.
 
Well deserved and sad to see her go.

You clowns nitpicking her tweet probably didn't even bother to see there's a third one beyond the OP where she thanks her team and mentions how proud she is of them. Shows how much of an ass some of y'all are lmao

Should use an image than to get it all in one Tweet. It's too complicated otherwise. :messenger_grinning_smiling:
