i don't think theres been a more powerful form of exposition in gaming (or even any other form of media) than Psychonauts's memory vaults
you get around 8-ish slides, each viewed in silence, hand drawn linework in a black/white and grey tint, that fucking come for your life
and the genius of them is that you get to flip back and forth, see a fucked up panel, flip back to the previous one, go OH SHIT and then flip forward to the end and go OH FUCK. You control the speed at which you view them, you get to pause for as long as you want and just take in everything and really let it fucking sink in
AND DAMN that absolutely raw ass line work, holy shit, it goes so hard. In every expression, every pose, so much has to be conveyed in each fucking panel and fuck me does it ever
the Psychonauts memory vaults can tell you in a few fucking drawings what other games will dedicate hours of exposition to and godammit i wish more people in the industry were taking notes
