Steam really needs to add a meh or middling option for their review system. Rhombus of Ruin is a sweet mini intetmission for the true sequel gme and it showcases a lot of the innovations and improvements of graphics for the first new Psychonauts game in over 12 years with smoother models, great animation oozing with personality, and beautiful environmental setpieces retaining the whimsical and odd style. The writing hasn't skipped a beat either but the gameplay is a major downgrade. You're extremely restricted, meant to be static unless you constantly utilize Clairvoyance to peer through the eyes of motionless aquatic life and returning characters. You're introduced to your abilities at the very start of the game then immediately lose all but Clairvoyance, unlocking them back one at a time as you progress. Unfortunately by the time you have them all back, the game is right at the end and you utilize them all once for a very basic "battle" then never have to use it again for like the last 15-20 minutes of the game. It's very much a VR point and click game but seems like it's missing more of the experimental aspects you'd find from P&C, feeling far more linear and that's fine, but it just doesn't feel satisfying or fun to play at all.
