September 2024 Q&A Time! Submit Those Questions!

  Alright YA'LL, you know what time it is! September. That's right. And that means Starbucks is doing their Fall shit, so you know your boy is on those Apple Crisp Macchiatos. But the other thing is that it's time for a new Question and Answer session!

  If there's anything you've ever wanted to ask me and see it answered on video, then submit it down below! Or you can email them directly to MysticRyan@Gmail.com. I'll film the session in about 2 - 3 weeks and upload it by the end of the month!

  I do have to ask though (and this is a good problem to have obviously) but try and keep it to just one question instead of multiple. And the shorter, the better. Just so it's a little bit easier to work through them all in the event we have another big turnout. Thank you for understanding! And I look forward to talking to you all. You're the best.

Ryan

Have you played stellar blade

GONGO h20

Hey Ryan, thanks for years of amazing content. Quick question for you: what's a "holy grail" you don't currently have in your collection?

Lee Cooper

Hey Ryan! I’m getting married next Saturday on the 5th and I’ve been so busy I almost forgot to submit a question. Hopefully I made it in time. Do you ever take it easy? You’re always demanding us to take it easy, and I think we all wanna know! Do you ever just, take it easy, man? 🤔 Glad to see you and the channel are doing well. Keep up the hard work brother! 😃

Andrew Pack

hey again ryan, vernors man here, recently got to try something more familiar to you, buffalo rock ginger ale, knew u arent big into ginger ales but ive come around, any new drink flavors youve gotten into or fun snacks? also could you add me on psn? my psn is CM-Ravens

cole miller

Hi Ryan, not sure if this has been asked before, but I've always been curious about this. For the B-roll you use in your videos, is it just a case you have a hard drive with multiple terabytes with every possible video you could need? I've always been impressed at how you seem to have suitable B-roll available no matter what you are discussing. I've always imagined it to be a video archive where you never know when you might need to pull out this video clip for a LTPS episode 😂 if I'm correct, how do you organise this? All the best!

We weren't friends yet?! Maxim you were slackin' on not telling me this

Ryan Biniecki

Request sent! (:

Ryan Biniecki

No problem! Request sent. (:

Hi Ryan! Given that the PS5 Pro is not shipping with a disc drive it's looking likely Sony will not have a standard bundle of PS6 with a disc drive. Do you believe for the next generation Sony will build PS6 to support the existing PS5 Slim/Pro disc drive? If not what do you think Sony will do (or do nothing) when it comes to discs in the next generation? You take it easy! [Ryan's line] No, no, YOU take it easy!

KruxZhlajfa

Yikes! This is a big one. Use this comment to take a second for a drink, or say something that’s on your mind. Take care, Ryan!

Ben Lindey

Have you played GTA4 on Series X? The framerate is locked at 60 and it’s amazing to play online, even with the mediocre Xbox controller. Love the ClickR3 podcast. And yes, it’s X all day, I don’t care what Jon or Sony says. YOU take it easy.

norfairaffair

Hi Ryan, hope this isn't too late and hope you're doing well! Is there a limited edition console (playstation, or otherwise) that you missed out on and are gutted that you didn't manage to pick up?

Jazzy Boswell

Hi Ryan, I just saw your playthrough of Astrobot. What a great game, and loved every minute of playing it. Were there any "easter eggs" that you missed when playing it but noticed during the edit? I'm sure there were a lot, but maybe list some of your favorites. Regard and thanks for all your hard work.

Karawettu

Hey Ryan I was just wondering when did you start adding different adjectives in your intro segments of LTPS?? It’s usually a relevant word or words that pertains to PlayStation news of that week

Victor Perez

Hey Ryan! My question is: does Melissa like/allow belly rubs and does she have a particular type of toy that she prefers to play with? Also, I just saw that your Astro Bot video is over 3 hours long! I haven’t got the game yet and need to play it before I watch your playthrough but I’m probably as excited to watch you play as I am to play it myself. You take it easy, buddy!

Indy L

Are there any games you are saving to try for the PS5 Pro/ Which games do you look forward to playing the most on the Pro? Take it easy!

DylanC.

Hey Ryan, What did you use for your hair restoration. You had awesome results and I’d be stoked get even half of what you got. Any brand of supplements you take? Thanks bro!

Prod’sBurner

Hey Ryan, I’ve been dabbling with Astro Bot and The Plucky Squire on my PlayStation Portal because it feels like those games were made for that handheld feel. Is there any games in particular that you have mainly focused on the Portal? Also, my PSN is JustinC_UNC if there is still room on your friend list! Thank you again for all of the content!

JC

Hey Ryan, Would appreciate if you add me on PSN: iErebusX Thanks!

Zack Plays

Hi Ryan! Do you think that Sony could have anticipated the reaction to the PS5 Pro price reveal and thus have Mark Cerny spend couple of minutes addressing it? Something along the lines of “we understand this is our most expensive console to date, but these factors have affected our pricing decisions”. I don’t think people fully realise the effects of higher demand for silicon (driven by the AI race) as well as weak Japanese yen (which lost 20% in the last five years). Could Sony have done something here to educate people or would it be in vain?

Vassili Kromm

Hey Ryan, Sorry for the long two part question, but I missed the last Q&A so I gotta make this one count. lol. Question 1: With games taking longer and longer to make and us being at least halfway through the current console cycle with a relatively light first party output, and a list of new IPs I can count on 1 hand, and basically no major announcements for future 1st party titles, do you believe Sony is building up a pipeline of games to be cross-generation launches with he PS6? I personally suspect that this what they're planning to do with games like Wolverine, the next Naughty Dog game, and at least 3 of their remaining planned live service games. I think unfortunately after that it's going to be a rinse and repeat cycle for the rest of the PS6 lifespan where after the second year we enter a long first-party drought. I don't blame Sony for this, game development is just very expensive and time-consuming. Curious to hear your thoughts on this. Question 2: With Sony being a clear console market leader for over a decade straight now it seems like they've gotten back to their PS3 era attitude of using their market dominance to try and test the upper limits of consumer's willingness to pay for their products (not just talking about the PS5 Pro). Do you think they're close to their breaking point in terms of consumer satisfaction considering how unpopular some of their recent decisions have been (Concord, PS5 Pro, mediocre showcases, etc.)?

Also my PSN is MaximPayne3 if you still have room on your friend list :)

Maxim Bagdasarian

Hey Ryan! What’s one obscure / rare PlayStation accessory you have that you’re proud of owning? And is there one you’re still looking for? For me I’m proud of owning the PSP Go’s stand and component cables, but the official PS Vita 2000 charging stand feels impossible to find :( All the best and loving the new podcast!

Maxim Bagdasarian

Do u plan on going back to last of us pt2 and getting the platinum (im currently working on it myself)

Johnny Boden

How did you know at such a young age you wanted to go into game analysis (game journalism) as opposed to game development? If you weren't kicking ass and taking names on YouTube, what do you think you'd be doing? Thanks for all your hard work. I've gotten a lot of value from your channel.

Beau Tepley

Hey Ryan, my last name's letter Č pronounces like ch (i.e. chat). Anyway, what do you think about Sony moving backwards compatibility to the next level? Improving current PS1/PS2 emulator? Adding PS3 emulator?

Lukas Velička

Hey Ryan, do you think Sony will make another ‘mini’ console like they did for the PS1?

Mark Bushell

I saw your video on backwards capability. I know that you were talking about PS4 and PS5 being on PS6. I don't intend to come off as THAT GUY but with the PS5 pro being the price that it is would it be justifiable to put a SoC in the PS6 so that the PS enthusiast like myself wouldn't mind spending $800 to play 6 generations on one console. Do you think the lack of competition could be a miracle in disguise?

How would you rank the sly games? For me it goes 3,1,4,2 and those are my top 4 favorites of all time

Hayden Holliday

Hey Ryan, what are your thoughts on how Sony handles the PSN Avatars this console cycle? It's weird how they got rid of them from the PSN Store, but then from time to time, they offer promotional avatars, like the anniversary ones. It seems to me like they have no clear direction on how to proceed with the avatars altogether. Do you think they will drop them completely on PS6?

Patryk Hanik

Hey Ryan, what do you think the future of the Ratchet series is, and what do YOU want from it? According to the insomniac leak they predict a Ratchet release in 2029, but no real plans for that. I think Rift Apart is the last one, it feels like insomniac is bigger than Ratchet now, but I really hope I’m wrong

Spacer

Hi, Ryan. I may have missed it but didn't hear you discuss the closure of Game Informer, which I remember you previously discussing as an outlet that was a potential destination for you as you got into the industry. What's your reaction to the closure of that outlet and what are your memories either reading or covering information gleaned in those magazines over the years?

Andrew Burnes

Hey Ryan! Not so much a question as much as I just want to say thank you for your videos, especially the ones outside of LTPS. (Like the collection ones, testing wi-fi @ places, the random accessory vids (like the printer and the ps2 controller screen thingy), etc.) Don't get me wrong, love LTPS, but you have a good energy about you and so it's always nice to get those extras. Not to be a Debby Downer but I struggle with a lot of anxiety and depression and sometimes when I'm feeling particularly out of whack, your vids are a great comfort watch. Appreciate you and all you do. Hope you're doing well, stay rad!

Buck Clegg

Hey Ryan, If it wasn't mandatory for your job, and given you already had a PS5, would you be buying the PS5 Pro at release? I've seen some commentary online about how people planning to buy the pro are giving into Sony's perceived greediness and are "part of the problem". What are your thoughts?

Kevin Shahzad

What’s your favourite game at the moment?? Also can you please add me on psn?? My psn is Jollyfi_

Gabby

Wazzup Ryan, I hope you’ve been doing good. You’ve stated in your videos before that PS3 is becoming your favorite playstation console. I don’t know if your aware of this but there is a youtube channel that displays footage of REALLY old beta PS3 xmbs that date all the way back to 2004 according to a commenter. The link to one of the videos is here (https://youtu.be/A2ODV1VP0J8?si=-mL11qpVZYITsZZW). My question for you is if there are any funny moments from your life that you’d be willing to share. Thanks Ryan, keep up the amazing work! You take it easy👍🏾

madvillainylover

Hi Ryan, sorry for adding to the pile of questions but I just have to know, out of all the generations of playstation consoles, whether that be PS1-5, PSP, PSVR or the obscure things like the pocketstation, which console would you say is your all time favourite and why? Keep up with the amazing content, seeing a new video from you makes a bad day better 😁

Fenton Culley

Hi Ryan and greetins from Finland! Has there been any rumours on Naughty Dogs new ip game in terms of genre/style and what kind of game would you like it to be?

Joona Tuomioja

Hello Ryan, I think I will be upgrading to ps5 pro. And I use ps5 as a bluRay player. Do you know if the region lock is based on the system or the disk attachment?

Ali Almutawa

Thanks man :)

I forgot to add - YOU take it easy my man. Your content means the world to me :D Love from Denmark

Hi Ryan! Thank you so much for reading out my last message, and giving it a proper response. It means a lot to me! 2nd question of these thingies: I've been keeping up with your PSN profile, because you tend to play/ enjoy similair games, as i enjoy. I noticed you don't play alot/ grind for new platinum trophies. My first guess would be, that you are very busy doing all the channel stuff. But do you have a second account, you play on, or is it just your other consoles, that you play on? And a bonus question - would you ever consider streaming some gameplay live, on twitch/ youtube, for us to enjoy?

Critteren

Hi Ryan - After your PS Portal public Wi-Fi video and it almost being a year since launch, was curious how often you use your PlayStation Portal outside of your videos? I think its a cool device but for me I couldn't justify getting one.

Jordan H

Forgot to mention you also did Returnal, JaK 3, GTA San Andreas and Cuphead. Just curious if you plan on doing more!

JordanD03

Hey Ryan, I know you upload some full platinum trophy play throughs of some games like the Astro games and I absolutely love those videos, do you ever plan to make more full platinum play throughs for any other games or just the Astro games? Also any predictions for GOTY??

JordanD03

Hi Ryan, what do you think of the PS5 Pro price and are you going to get one? I was hoping to maybe get one but not at that price.

Quinn Q Miller

With Xbox going in another direction and Nintendo doing its own thing, Playstation effectively has the high-end home console market to itself. How do you think will this bode for consumers looking to get a Playstation from a price standpoint in future console generations?

pngnat

Hi Ryan, hope all is well! I’ve just been replaying Bioshock Infinite and was reminded how great at world building the intro/first hour of that game is. What are your favourite examples of games that excel at building a great atmosphere and game world? Thanks for all the great content!

Sam Brown

Hey Ryan, I hope you are doing well. My question for you is what is your go to adult beverage when your hang out with friends? Thanks for the awesome content.

Jeremy Joyner

Hey how’s it going again my friend?! I have a serious question that’s been bothering me for quite some time now and I wanted to get your input. Do you think game developers are getting lazy when it comes to making multiplayer games that kinda seem like a copy and paste? For instance… we have Fortnite (which I’ll give it the respect how’s a unique gaming experience) then we had call of duty’s warzone… then you have Overwatch… which lead to Overwatch 2 and now we had Concord.. to me I think that’s one of the biggest reasons why it failed. I think Helldivers 2 was such a unique gaming multiplayer experience that it was easily loved by gamers who love playing online even though it’s not PvP. Anyways… I hope you are having a great year and as always you take it easy! Sincerely big(small)boy jones lol

Steven Dominguez (Bigboyjones2029)

Hi Ryan, how are you? A question that might be a bit tricky to answer at the moment, but what were the best games you finished this year? Keep taking it easy!

Muzera

Hey Ryan! It was awesome meeting you at Toomanygames and very happy you got the red eyes key-chain figure! I am also a duelist but really only XYZs and back. I just cant get my head around the new stuff lol What are some of your favorite decks and monsters? My favorite deck to play is Toons! Also with the new early days collection game coming out what is your favorite Yugioh game. Thanks as always Ryan-boy (Pegasus voice)

DangerZone

It's HeyIAmLost. And thanks for replying ❤️

IAmLost...

I don't know if this question has been asked before, but what are your top 3 genres in games? My favorite 3 are, cozy games, metroidvanias, and RPGs.

Beth Graham

Lemme know your PSN ID and I’ll send a request out!

Ryan Biniecki

What's your favourite metal gear solid and why? Also can you add me on psn? My psn is fast_tanker10

Quinn Bellmore

Hi, may have been asked before but I see you’re also a Pokemon fan, what’s your favorite game (assuming from Gen 2 based on decor) and if it’s from your childhood do you still have your original copy and save file?

Fruitstand

Hola Ryan! Greetings from Madrid. I'm looking forward to the launch of Neva, the new game from Nomada Studio (creators of Gris), and I wanted to know which is your favorite Spanish-produced video game (Gris, Blasphemous, Metroid Dread, etc)? Thank you for the great content!

José Izquierdo

Are you able to get more feat guests on some of your uploads. Maybe you start with Brian I think that's the childhood friend you used to game with in the day. I'm curious if he has any play genre that you don't care for like how Terrell likes fighting games. It would be a great debut in one of your gameplay videos or $100 for 100 games series. I'm sure there are other people too...or not. You stay classy.

Are you going to buy coffee talk: tokyo when it comes out next year? (and how do I add you on psn?)

IAmLost...

Hi there! Recent member here, don't know if you already talk about it / answer this question. What TV do you have to play? Has everything to play PS5 at 100%? Keep the good work. Salutations from Portugal!

Tiago Artilheiro

Hey Ryan, after your glorious experience with Astrobot. What game do you expect to platinum next? Any second half 2024 releases on the docket? All the best! Derek

Derek Bergen

With the PS5 Pro reveal, do you think the next generation of PlayStation console (PS6) will be 100% disc less with no drive option?
