Difficulty spike

I was at the point where I needed to get the disguise to get to the sewers (in the mind of that crazy guard)...I spent like an hour running around that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ area looking for that thing they were holding. Then I just gave up and looked it up, when I realized what I was supposed to do I was like...WHAT? It just made absolutely no sence. So I was wondering if there are any other moments like this 'cause if there are I'm uninstalling the game, I hate games where "logic" means running around trying to interact with everything -.-

Where and how did you find it???

[andrewb]

It's the large kinda flat building with a parking lot at it. There is a console on the wall where you have to enter a code. I'm sure you will figure it out from there...The game is great by the way I was just extremely pissed at it when I started the thread :D

I am enjoying every second of Psychonauts. Brilliant writing and amazing characters, fun gameplay, creativ and beautiful enviroments and levels! I am loving it!

The only downside is that I dont have a cobweb duster and I have only little over 400 arrowheads, and the cobweb duster costs 800 :/ Well better go back and collect, thanks for answering! :D

[andrewb]

You are welcome, I assume you have the arrowhead detector thing?...Dowsing rod I think it's called, you can earn the arrowheads very quickly with that.

[Mitoguy]

Yes, I got it, faster than I expected :)

I also remember that part being less than intuitive. I found the keypad part by accident, just running around and setting things on fire.

I don't think there are other instances where game progression is that vexing. Though, interacting with things in a more-or-less sequential order will save you a lot of frustration.

You get clairvoyance in that level, and there are a lot of other puzzles using clairvoyance, so it shouldn't be too hard to figure out that you use it on the secrect agent as he comes out of the library...

I was stuck earlier in that level trying to get the flowers. I was using clairvoyance on the feather to see the gate, but couldn't connect what was causing the gate to open and close. It happens just long enough after I walk through the other gate that I didn't realize they were connected.
