It was less a complement to you than an insult to Cammy. :p

Whilst I really don't want this thread to devolve further in to a Psychonauts discussion, I should clarify that I only got tired of the campsite because I was obsessively combing it at every stage of the game to find every single item, character and cut scene. Other than that, I agree with your post.

I had that in everywhere apart from the campsite.

And that's why I hate Waterloo World.

Waterloo World is terrible for figments. They're just so invisible.

And one of them's outside the fence. Fuck you, Magenta Fairy.

Waterloo Road is just fucking terrible. End of. =)

Let's make this a Psychonauts thread, eh?

Sure, you had to thoroughly comb the worlds to get everything, but since the worlds were so colourful and well-themed while having decent level design, I didn't mind doing that at all. Perhaps one of the few games I've come across where I didn't feel like the optional side-quest of collecting things was a chore.

Wasn't there a Psychonauts thread in the non-oddworld gaming section?

We make a Psychonauts thread every time it goes on sale. And we always get a clone of the last one.

I had the obnoxiously french theme music from the Waterloo World in my head for a long fucking time. In fact, I think I still have it stuck there.

*starts humming La Marseillaise*

Fuck...

*Posts as invisible autoplay*

Nah, I'll save that for the Music Thread. I have a lot of accordion in my head right now.

Yes, thanks, I know what GameFAQs is and how to use it. Doesn't change the game.

You may not have known that there were specific FAQs telling you where each individual figment is located. Makes the process of combing a level for one missing figment much less grindy.

I've already found that one.

EDIT: And, using it, every fragment in the game.

So what are you complaining about then?

Being patronized.

Rephrase: What were you complaining about before I posted the link to GameFAQ? The complaint that I must clearly have misunderstood as being about how difficult the figments were to find.

It was a comment about how difficult the figments are to find. There existing a guide doesn't change that.

Some people prefer games to be realistically completable without outside help.

If a guide is required to do something then it's probably not a good design. On the other hand, it's most likely a mistake on their part rather than an actual decision to make it impossible.
