Psychonauts 2 has a fairly large cast of characters big enough to expect some to be underdeveloped or forgotten. In reality, however, most are memorable and have time to shine, often with fully realized arcs that sometimes blend into other characters’ lives and journeys in comedic or dramatic ways. Better yet, none of these characters feel two-dimensional. Instead, they are portrayed as real people grappling with admittedly wild circumstances. I’ve met people like the energetic Raz, the serious but sad Hollis Forsythe, and the strong but guilty Ford Cruller. And these characters and their personalities contribute to even the craziest moments of Psychonauts 2which makes it easier to connect with them and invest in the outcome of their stories. – Zack Zweizen
