If you start Psychonauts 2 for the first time, brain symbols are displayed in the upper left corner. This is known as mental energy, but actually represents RAZ 'health. Each symbol consists of four segments, and if you take damage, they are of course used up. While daring through different levels, you will see containers that light up green - this is your main health source. Defeating some enemies can also help to replenish the health, even though they do not always drop these green beads.
How do you increase the mental energy / HP from RAZ? You must find half-a-minds, small creatures that look literally like a half brain, but with eyes, a mouth and little legs. Half-a-minds can be found in the different levels and if you find two, you will receive a completely new mental energy brain, which increases your hit points.
If you have problems to locate health, it may be a good idea to have some PSI POPs at hand. These can be found or purchased at the Otto-Matic and ensure a bit of health while consuming. Do not worry if your health is leaving, as Raz appears again at the next checkpoint.
How to increase the psitanium capacity
To buy these PSI Pops - and other things like pins and upgrades - of course you need psitanium. While exploring the game, collect psitanium, but ultimately complain to the lack of space to store everything. The psitanium capacity is increased by purchasing wallets of Otto-Mattic and luckily there is a very simple way to get the first upgrade. If you are in the mother of mother (right after completing the first mission), explore the atrium and look for glossy violet stains. Interact with you to get psitanium.
As soon as you have collected 75 psitanium, the PSFFFD Wallet will buy from the Otto Matic. This increases the maximum load capacity to 1,000 psitanium. The next big upgrade is the Astral Wallet, which costs 750 psitanium and can accommodate up to 5,000. However, the first wallet will contribute to the purchase of upgrades and additional pins.
