Psychonauts - FINALE - The Meat Circus

[@bryanbradford2829]

So, Raz can fight the butcher, but needs help from his dad to fight the mental dad. Because you can try to help others solve their mental problems, but you can't really solve your own without help sometimes.

[@ilianceroni]

especially in this case, his "demon" was the distorted image he has of his dad. When he actually helped and show how false his fears were, Raz got all the tools he needed to work out his "mental baggages"

[@michaelhudson3331]

I absolutely love the interpretations of Raz's father. The way a child can see an overprotective parent whose really just trying to prepare them in his own way, or try to shield them from the horrors of what their powers might cause them. It is just... pitch perfect for that and I am so happy we got to see the fact that Raz's father was a genuinely loving father.

[@treyslider6954]

This is one of the things I really love about the game: Through clairvoyance we see that everyone sees Raz as other than his true self, so it stands to reason that his view of the world is also incorrect. The reveal that his dad is not the psychic-hating monster Raz thinks, is one of my favorite details in a game full of favorite details.

[@AceiestArtist]

Hey Dan, Fun fact: ALL ports of this game had Meat Circus' difficulty reduced. This version appears to also have those changes. Originally, you lost lives if you failed the escort section and if you drowned in the platforming, and there were fewer checkpoints. OG Meat Circus was ROUGH.

[@Mr.Sparks.173]

Yea... they really needed to tone down that ghost's frequency. Maybe have it do its "RAZPUTIN" call at set points rather than on a timer. Same with Raz's hit barks, maybe have them every other hit rather than every hit

[@trace9021]

@@Mr.Sparks.173 I always wonder how annoying audio barks make it through playtesting other than just "we know, we just have no time to fix it". I know nothing about how they would be programmed, I figured they'd go off every X amount of time players are in Y area, so they don't forget what they were doing, but the ones here wouldn't shut up.

[@ahandsomefridge]

As much as I love the whole meat circus theme and the mixed brain thing going on it's still somewhat traumatizing hearing that highpitched sqeaky kid oleander voice again. Ah well, we knew that was coming.

I had to turn subtitles off for this part. Too big, too often. Actually gets in the way of gameplay, I think

[@kaykao]

The twist with Raz's dad was fantastic. When this playthrough started I wasn't so sure about it, the art style was maybe a bit too out there, but I can really see now why you love it, Dan. This was a ton of fun to watch.

[@LORDOFDORKNESS42]

I really like how open to interpretation they left The Butcher. Sure, little Oleander was *clearly* traumatized rather deeply by his dad's view on bunnies... but we never find what the real dad was actually like. Was he as big a monster as Oleander's mind recall him as, or is The Butcher as accurate as Raz's dad vs Raz's mental image of his dad? Really nice subtlety there. Don't see that often in games.

[@Mr.Sparks.173]

My personal theory on Olly's dad is that his dad was like an old school "salt of the earth" type, built rather large but not overly so (maybe built like Edgar), running both a butcher shop and a small rabbit farm (which supplied the meat for his shop). He loved Olly dearly, but didnt want to hide the "facts of life" from him. He introduced Olly to where meat comes from perhaps a bit too early, and Olly was hence traumatized as a result. His father didnt recognize the signs of Olly's traumatization, and hence didnt get him the help he needed. Allowing the demon butcher of Olly's mind to form.

[@pedroscoponi4905]

It's also interesting how huge and strong he is compared to Raz's image of his dad. Raz is only 10, the distortion isn't too absurd yet - Coach had several decades to toss that stone around his head, blowing it out of proportion one inch at a time.

[@randomrandomness4193]

I liked you video to 70 because it originally had a 9 in it

[@Ghostel3591]

@@pedroscoponi4905 you also should remember Ford's words "Psitanium makes unstable minds even more crazy" - Oleander through out his life WAS a good coach and psychonaut - but Psitanium poisoning latched on his untreated Daddy Issues and perverted his drive to prove himself born from it into Megalomania. It is actually very lucky that Sasha and Milla had their demons under control - imagine their minds being corrupted by Psitanium - over controlling Sasha and non stop party Milla that either lost her empathy for others or turned into super controlling psychic mother-monster.

Aww, li'l Raz cleans up so nice. I feel like I'm at a wedding and there's my baby cousin who I've only ever seen covered in three different types of mud, clean and combed in a tux. Adorable! Gotta say, though, I miss that hat.

[@3lH4ck3rC0mf0r7]

@@FrogFr1 The goggles and headgear are by far the piece I miss the most.

[@3lH4ck3rC0mf0r7]

@@FrogFr1 It's like, without it, he can't put his goggles in place before getting into anyone's mind. And the image of that just sticks with you, I guess. It feels like an astronaut putting his helmet on before blasting off into the unknown. No wonder they recovered it for the sequel.

Move your feets on the meats. Also: the G men at the cookout - "I am a chef. This is my spatula" as they use the spatula as a trumpet.

[@bendonatier]

I always found this level particularly funny. My mom growing up would always tell us of how she was traumatized, when my grandfather served the family her "pet" rabbit. It was one of several being raised for the meat, since that was part of what my grandfather did for a living, and she was too young to understand that.

Random thing: this game gave me what I consider my second-least-deserved achievement on steam. I'd been poking around the camp one time when I suddenly had to use the bathroom. Came back to an achievement toast: "Wolpaw says thanks". I'd left myself within hearing range of Vernon.

Here's something pretty interesting: on the official Double FIne website(now closed for remodeling), there was an FAQ page, with one of the questions being: *What's up with the Psychonauts Meat Circus?* and the answer to that question was: _What's up with Meat Circus is that you're a big baby. Sure, sure, invisibility is very important when Raz's dad is trying to knock you off those tight ropes. And your shield will bounce the knife thrower's blades right into those spinning target wheels. And also you can throw a confusion grenade at that bunny and then just go pick it up, instead of trying to grab it with Telekinesis. Those things are also true. But the main point I'm trying to make here is that first one, about you being a big baby._ I just wanted to bring that up.

[@elenafriese891]

Oh wow. That's probably one of the best example of information couching that I've seen in quite some time. Dang

[@beterbomen]

You know, one of the things I find personally creepiest is that, while the butcher's chasing you, he spouts the same lines as little Oly when he's chasing after the bunny. It's probably another clue that "the butcher" is mostly made up, and not a true depiction of Oleander's dad.

[@justember794]

32:06 "Punch punchy punch punch!" The most threatening words of ou Psychonaut Dan. The chunk of Psitonium strapped the Cruller's back was a nice touch. Since you seemed to immediately move on, the animation supervisors were Sandra Christiansen, Eric Ingerson, and David Russell. And Dan, it is always a joy to hear you geek out about things you love. It's as infectious as the Grumps' giggle fits.

Meat Circus? Did someone let a llama with a hat into the making of this game? Also, Raz's dad actually being a REALLY GOOD PARENT is far and away one of the best twists I've seen. Well done, game. PLEASE play Rhombus of Ruin. It'll be great fun.

[@alyssagoss2299]

There are parts of this game that are incredibly cringe worthy but I'm amazed at some of the stuff they got right that people still struggle with. They seem to have taken a really humanistic approach to the characters and that's served them well. The only person who gets fully vilified is Dr. Loboto (even the camp bully gets that bit at the end when Raz's dad shows up). They didn't use the patients at the asylum for scares, and even though there were jokes their troubles get treated as real and deserving of care. (That one blue haired character deserved better, Fred really needs to get over himself.) There's an on going message that you need to be careful about what you say to kids because your words might hit way harder than you intended and what happens to kids stays with them their whole lives. The most interesting part is the way Coach Oleander's arc seems to be that his dad pushed him to suppress his softer more caring side in order to make him into a man, a role he physically wasn't able to fulfill to expectations. That's the sort of message I'm seeing in stories now, but not something I would expect from a PS2 era game. It's a comedy game but it's also really heartfelt and sweet. If only they could have addressed the weird obsession with body shaming.

[@_Bookmark_]

Call me insane for noticing this but 29:12 hit the comma button 10 times... thats not how arms work :) But I do see why this game is held up. Its pure creativity, nothing else like it. Truly one of a kind

[@ZodiacShadow71]

Also, seeing as Dan mentioned Portal during the credits, but didn't seem to notice a certain name - shoutout to Erik Wolpaw for his comedic writing skills! Co-wrote Psychonauts (and will co-write 2), and worked with Valve on Portal 1 and 2, Half-Life 2 and Left 4 Dead!

[@TheJackOfFools]

Dan, Yahtzee from Zero Punctuation has an interesting stance you might like. He says that it's important to experience art (specifically older games) as they were originally; as products of their time and culture, flaws (or flawed viewpoints) and all. That remakes or updates of games robs us of this important experience. To see what was possible in the past, how limitations led to innovation, as well as to learn from mistakes and outmoded ways of thinking you have to see the original. And I think I agree with that. I think your playthrough of Psychonauts has solidified this in my mind. It has flaws, and many of them relate to mindsets that were acceptable previously, but have since been shown to be problematic or even outright harmful. I think it's good for people to see a game like this, take time to ask what was good, what wasn't, and why. We can learn from it as game makers or as fans of this art form. Maybe even as people, seeing how we have grown in our own viewpoint, or how we might need to grow. I really appreciate your work, from the OG Extra Credits, to this and everything else on PlayFrame and NewFramePlus. Discussing games as a fan, and as someone appreciating an art form critically. It has helped me appreciate my favorite art form even more, while helping me think about it more seriously than "just games".

Lovely playthrough, Dan. Psychonauts is with no doubts one of my fav games of all time, with Shadow of the Colossus and A link to the Past (recently added to that list Hollow Knight). Enjoyed it troughly. On a side note, seriously, screw the meat circus. Still gotta love the concept and aestethic, love the concept art of that one! And the idea that your troubles are a lot bigger on your head that in reality, and how the biggest challenge becomes easier with some outside help.

[@dragoniraflameblade]

Is that Tim Curry as the Butcher (nvm, I read the credits)? I love the butcher shop horror aesthetic with the circus/fairground theme. Oh man, Raz's outfit in the end! He could still wear the goggles.

[@ZodiacShadow71]

Having never experienced Psychonauts and never gotten around to diving into it, thank you so much for the ride, Dan. If I had played Psychonauts myself, I doubt it would have lived up to the hype... and yet your boundless enthusiasm, little technical tidbits and overwhelming nostalgia drew me in and kept me hooked. Keep doing what you do, man. You do it damn well.

OMG! Here we are! The TOUGHEST, most frustrating level in the game! Take the tower from the Asylum and add a kid who is too busy chasing a bunny to defend himself from the horrible monsters that are trying to beat him to death! ...And if he dies , you fail. And THEN you have to climb another tower while dealing with a crazy jerk and water flooding the stage! This level SUCKS! ...But the final fight and finale totally make up for it! What an awesome game! Except for Raz's new outfit! Man that hair has problems! OMG! The Coach's voice actor ALSO does Doctor Loboto?! That is some Mel Blanc level stuff right there!

I see why this level is infamous. 15:50: What do you think this is, Shadow of the Colossus? You can't _hold onto_ giant monsters! You can't get a good grip! 25:55: Say what you will about Oleander Sr, but his dad jokes are on point. 35:05: I mean, it's supposed to be a happy ending, but I still find that to be a suspiciously specific denial. 42:15: With the sequel on the horizon, the time is ripe for a remaster. Remastering Psychonauts would probably be cheaper than making a whole-cloth game, and would double as marketing for Psychonauts 2. 13:15: I like a good understatement death reaction. 19:40: One angry figment of Raz's imagination at a time, _please!_ 21:25: Not if Raz's father has anything to say about it...and boy, does he! 33:20: His knives are bigger than most platforms, of _course_ they're going to do a ton of damage! 35:55: "Your heart needs to pump a _lot_ of blood to keep your psychic powers active." 38:00: Psychonauts can _teleport?_ Outside of psychic landscapes, I mean. 44:35: I guess nobody's figured out how to create ludic comedy (the best we've gotten are one-joke titles which riff on a specific trope), and gameplay tends to clash with the elements of traditional comedy.

Great playthrough, I enjoyed it a lot! Interesting to hear that crashes on loading a somewhat common. I tried to play through this game some time ago but always had a crash after exiting the coaches mind for the first time and re-loading the camp. Thought, my game just would not progress. But if it´s a common problem, it´s maybe worth trying another time - eventually, I was just unlucky. As a side note: I really appreciate that you do not beg for likes, subscribes and patreon support on the end of each episode, but rather keep it to a minimum at the end of a playthrough. Ending with a look forward to what you will be doing (rather than hoping that we will give you more attention) really emphasise that you actually enjoy playing and are not doing it for clicks and profit. Looking forward to whatever comes next.

[@HPetch]

I have to say, one of the things I've liked best about the story of this game is that it skips over the "adults underestimate the protagonist and treat them like they don't understand anything" part common to this sort of plot - Sasha, Milla and Ford all trust Raz and treat him as, if not an adult, at least something of an equal as soon as they realise how capable and mature (for his age) that he is. They don't brush off his claims due to him being a kid, or go into "oh, it's far too dangerous" mode once the truth comes out, which is a refreshing change of pace from how this sort of thing often plays out. I strongly suspect that's part of why the writing in the game works so well, it actively avoids a lot of clichés inherent to a coming-of-age story and avoids a lot of the pitfalls they can lead to as a result. Can't wait to see where things go with the sequel.

From an FAQ section on the Double Fine website (www.doublefine.com/about/): What's up with the Psychonauts Meat Circus? What's up with Meat Circus is that you're a big baby.

Man, is it just me, or is that Butcher fight pretty Shadow of the Colossus-esque? Which is interesting considering both this game and that one came out the same year.

Finally got through a let's play of this game on my second attempt, the collectathon genre is not my favourite to watch gameplaywise. I think the only other collectathon I've seen a let's play of is Conker's Bad Fur Day. The (admittedly superficial) parallels i can draw to Mob Psycho 100 and Persona certainly helped drag me through this time around.

it's time foooor.... THE MOST ELECTRIFYING DAREDEVIL, HIGHFLYING THE MOST EXCITING STUNTS YOU'LL EVER SEE- *BUTCH-ER=Y!*

[@VerbalLearning]

Hey Dan if you wanna try another game that also deals with the human psyche although with a more serious and unsettling tone, i highly recommend the somewhat old point and click adventure game called Sanitarium.

Ok did the butcher sound like Tim Curry loved the game🥰🥰🥰

[@parisashirvani4898]

Dan, have you played Stacking?

[@aaronsirkman8375]

OMIGOD yeeeeesss, Stacking is a fun, funny, cute and disturbing game, could be totally up Dan's alley! Hop into people's SOULS and ride them around! Also everyone's a matryoshka.

[@pedroscoponi4905]

It just crossed my mind - Dan, have you ever played one of the Supergiant titles? Like Transistor and such? They're pretty short, please consider! :D This playthrough was a blast, thank you very much. I'm now excited for the sequel, same as everyone else!

[@MrMisterkrazy]

There's actually a Bastion playthrough with a guest from waaaaay back when this was Extra Play!

[@MementiMori]

Please tell me we are going to be seeing the VR game on the channel? Please?

What's the name of the fake psychonauts social network mentioned in a past episode? I can't find it.

[@WolftheWidowmaker]

It's Campster.

What Psychonaut uses purple

[@Kwyjibo28372]

I'm wondering, wrt the sequel, how they will treat travelers with respect. They set up the premise of Raz being implicitly Roma, and now they have to reconcile that with modern sensibilities. Will they even address it?

[@VandrothSoryn]

I really hope Psychonauts 2 is good. Please please please please be good
