Astro Bot Rescue Mission Retrospective | The Golden Bolt

[@TheGoldenBolt]

Reminder: Early & ad-free access to my next proper video (Ape Escape) is dropping soon for Patrons and YT Members - if you want to catch it early and help support the channel, do the thing! My review of the new Astro Bot game will drop Thursday, 9/5, once the embargo is lifted (as noted in the video, a review copy for that game was provided by PlayStation).

[@barnoslat5632]

IF YOU PLAN ON DOIJG APE ESCAPE 3 ILL BECOME A PATRON RN

[@TheGoldenBolt]

Just to be clear/maybe save you the money: It's predominantly focused on Ape Escape 1, with a lot of discussion on the series' trajectory and Japan Studio near the end! Some of the Japan Studio stuff might get taken out from the final public cut - I haven't decided yet whether it really fits the rest of the video, and I'm gonna end up going into Japan Studio in its own video eventually anyway.

[@runekofoed-petersen6578]

​@@TheGoldenBolt I look forward to your Japan studio video. As someone who loved a lot of their games (special shoutout to Puppeteer) I feel that a lot of People do not understand how many chance SIE/SCE gave them.

My wife, who was never a console gamer (only played mostly The Sims on PC) got 100% hooked on Astro's PS5 game, she even platinum'd it in like a week. It's such a feel good game, and it's so well made that anyone can play it.

[@baggelissonic]

I suggest you introduce her to Mario then. Probably the best 3d platformers out there. 3d world is Co-Op so it's very fun to play together.

I hope that Astro can remind some developers (besides Nintendo ofc) that there's still a _huge_ market for 3D platformers out there. Not everything needs to be a cinematic action game.

[@baggelissonic]

Aren't the sales kinda meh for this game?

[@kriscynical]

@@baggelissonic Look at Mario's numbers and you can see there's still a huge market for 3D platformers. There's always been one. This isn't going to be an instant gangbusters game since it's a new IP to most people, but more than big enough to make a healthy profit given how much lower the budget was to make it. It looks like it's going well enough, and I'm betting sales are going to be more slow and steady than an avalanche at the start (apparently Amazon Japan sold out of it for a little while though) solely due to glowing word of mouth. I literally haven't heard a single bad thing about it. If the industry can justify releasing slop like Concord and Sui¢ide Squad, there's more than enough to justify solid sales of a solid platformer with a fraction of the production cost. 🤷‍♀️

[@itsjuanpacheco]

You know, Mario was never meant to be Nintendos mascot. He was supposed to be a Popeye game. He never became an official mascot until the NES. Hell, Chocobos are now the mascot for Square. My point? It takes mascots to grow on people. I think it’s now Astros time to shine. If not Crash, Lara Croft, Parappa, Kratos, Ratchet or Clank, Jack or Daxter, the weird head thing that they showed at that E3 that one time, the Ps1 T-Rex, Sackboy, Knack….. ASTRO will shine.

[@unicorntomboy9736]

[@mdstevens0612]

I used to work as promotional staff in electronics stores and there were like 3 or 4 VR games that always drew a crowd, Astro Bot Rescue Mission was never one of them. People understandably asked what was even the point of a VR 3D platformer, and never gave the game a fair chance. The few kids that did however *loved* it, and while I was more of a R.I.G.S. guy myself, Astro Bot Rescue Mission always managed to get me to come back. It was a great game locked behind an expensive VR Headset in an era with a ton of great games. A sequel on a popular console that doesn't require a peripheral was the best thing they could do for Astro Bot and I for one am delighted

[@poptheweasel100]

Everyone talks about PS4 emulation so they can play Bloodborne. Me? I want PSVR emulation so I can play Astro Bot on my own PCVR setup.

[@Ooo_ooo607]

It's a relief to know that I'm not the only person in the world to know "The Playroom" and "The Playroom VR". Team Asobi I love you

[@KevinCow]

As a platformer enthusiast and a VR enthusiast, Rescue Mission is among the best of both. And it's absolutely insane to me that Sony's got a newer, better VR headset, and they still haven't ported over Rescue Mission despite the PSVR2 having almost no other games. It's a crime that this masterpiece is stuck on such a crappy headset.

[@NigelMelanisticSmith]

I still to this day can't comprehend that Sony couldn't figure out how to better handle PSVR compatability. As a die hard PSVR1 fan, I don't see how they thought they could convince people to lose all of their favorite games on PSVR2.

[@comicbookguygamecat]

The game director from team asobi recently did a interview they hit asked 176 (I think) and one of them was about rescue mission on psvr2 and the answer was I can't say if I did if it did come come to psvr2 how would it work and the team asobi is a team made of around 65 people.

[@gamerlest509]

@@comicbookguygamecat He was asked whether he'd ever played Astro Bot Rescue Mission on a PSVR 2 headset and his answer was he couldn't say. That doesn't mean Rescue Mission is coming to PSVR 2 (though I hope it does). They might've ported a level or two as a tech demo or proof of concept. It might have been in the works but scrapped. We just won't know unless Sony announces something.

[@comicbookguygamecat]

@@GreyMatterShades yeah I thought his answer was interesting hopefully one day there is another astro bot vr game.

[@Jakco808]

Astro Bot rescue mission is the best VR experience I've ever had

[@ProfessionalWalrus32]

Wow, watching this video made me realize that it seems like the “new” Astro Bot game is just a straight up remake of Rescue Mission. There wasn’t a single thing I saw in the video that wasn’t also in Astro Bot. I’m not complaining, it’s just interesting that so few people played Rescue Mission that hardly anyone can draw those comparisons. And I’m glad that what was once a niche but beloved VR title is now a highly acclaimed GOTY contender.

[@TheGoldenBolt]

For what it's worth, this was a late concern I had before I got to play Astro Bot - and for maybe a level or two, even while enjoying the hell out of it, I thought "okay this is technically safe for the handful of us that know Rescue Mission well." However, as time went on, it became clear that the new game had somehow already pulled off what it takes series' several installments and a decade+ to do: It had built up a series DNA organically, so that you'd see bosses, enemies, or gadgets return and feel nostalgic for them. The ape boss in world 1 was where that clicked for me, that they were absolutely making sure you knew _they knew_ how to reference their own history while expanding on or straight-up reinventing it. Which, honestly, is fitting for a game that does the same thing with all the PlayStation history cameos, without actually relying on them!

Rescue Mission is a masterpiece.

[@craftboy338]

This game made me feel like a kid again. I loved Astro Bot Rescue Mission _so much,_ just that one game by itself was worth the price of the PS4 and PS4VR to me. It's one of very few games I've ever loved enough to put the effort into 100%ing. _Super_ hyped for Astro Bot on PS5, I literally barely cared at all about getting a PS5 until I saw the first reveal trailer for it ^^; It just... makes me happy c:

[@snailyman]

it is a well known fact that the quality of a video game is directly proportional to the number of funny little guys in it, which is the real reason why astrobot is a perfect game

[@TylerBR97]

Something that sets Astro Bot Rescue Mission apart from Mario games is that there was never a moment where Astro wasn’t fun. From 0-100% it was an absolute joy that I never wanted to end. No 3D Mario game has ever had that for me. The main campaign is great but completion isn’t the best

[@paybo3573]

Astro bot is the only game I've ever pre-ordered. I'm really excited

[@unicorntomboy9736]

I hope Team Asobi, the developers behind Astrobot, start working on a new Ape Escape game after Astro Bot releases. Maybe a Gravity Daze 3 perhaps. Team Aaobi are extremely talented and insanely underrated among the diehard PlayStation fans, that i wouldn't want them to just be a one-trick pony, and only ever do Astrobot games (kinda like Sony Santa Monica with God of War). I love this franchise, and i do want to see it grow further and become a massive brand and franchise akin to Mario, but i don't want it to be the ONLY thing Team Asobi ever work on. They would make a killer Ape Escape title.

[@mattmozgiel2111]

Games for kids are important.

[@CaptJABRONIE]

This is, without any exaggerating, the only reason I have a PS5 and haven't completely transitioned to PC. I have been so bummed out by Sony and MSs first party output. I'm done with my consoles. I'm trying to sell them off. Lo and behold Sony decides to remember that videogames are supposed to be fun. Everything Astrobot has been my favorite memories with a PS4 or PS5. Playing the vr party game where your family sits with the controllers while you're a big monster or something, THAT is what videogames are supposed to be about. Laughing, smiling and having fun. ASTRO VR was a single player game and so is this, but I still fully expect that I will smile and have fun again. More of this is what keeps me engaged with your products. Not ANOTHER third person action game with shoe horned rpg mechanics.

[@onthedre]

I played the PS5 game and immediately fell in love

[@MattTheHuman9]

I remember playing that shuriken minigame with my cousins who had the camera, cool to see Astro Bot evolve into a proper franchise. Those gauntlet levels also look really fun.

[@GreyMatterShades]

Rescue Mission is such a fantastic game, and it was unquestionably made better by being in VR. I'm glad Astro is getting new games released to the larger non-VR audience, but I was gutted when they completely ruled out a VR mode for the new game. That killed my interest in it. Astro's Playroom was fun, but it just felt lacking after having experienced Rescue mission.

I LOVED Astro's Playroom and SO GLAD we've gotten a proper Astro Bot game (without VR) because from the get go the games always screamed "PlayStation's Mario" to me, just straight up, the feel and everything is just soooooo Nintendo, then add in all the PlayStation centric History/Nostalgia especially as someone who started out with and grew up from the PS1 all the way to today as a PlayStation fan 😁 Astro is just such an enjoyable series for someone like me... He's also just insanely adorable. Probably not as huggable as Ratchet though since he's made of metal 😅

Regarding having to hook up a PS4 for this game when you have a PS5: If you have a PSVR and want to use it on the PS5 to play, you can request an adapter for the PlayStation camera from Sony for free. No PS4 required! You DO need a DualShock 4 though :P

[@dapperfan44]

​@@WayneisbossSome other cool things about PSVR: Games with VR modes, but do not necessarily need the VR to function, don't require the camera or a DualShock 4 (e.g. Tetris Effect) You can play any PS4 or PS5 game with the headset on, and adjust the screen size. This is, imo, a much more interesting way to free the tv for another person than the PS Portal. Good thing you said you're keeping your PS4. Exclusively on PS4, you are able to watch 3D movies with PSVR without the need for a 3D tv. Unfortunately, PS5 does not have support for 3D Blu-rays.

[@GreyMatterShades]

I'd honestly say it's worth it to pick up a PSVR 1 if the price is right and you have the necessary controllers. There are actually a lot of fun games on it. Astrobot Rescue Mission is near the top, but if you grab one you should also check out Wipeout Omega Collection, Statik, Here They Lie, Resident Evil 7's VR mode, Until Dawn: Rush of Blood, Ace Combat 7 (though it only has 3 VR levels), Farpoint, VR Worlds, and Blood and Truth. And if you don't have any other VR headset, you can add Moss 1 and 2, Skyrim VR, Headmaster, Star Wars Squadrons, Eagle Flight, Doom 3 VR, Borderlands 2 VR, and a bunch of other games to the list. I had a blast with PSVR 1. It's still a lot of fun today as long as you can look past the low resolution, and have a reliable source of info on which games are good. I'd recommend the youtube channel Without Parole, as they've got reviews for a huge portion of the PSVR 1 library.

Unfortunately, every single one of the Astro Bot games requires hardware that I have literally no other reason to obtain. Outside of some freebies given out during a promotion years ago, the only other game I ever thought of for PS4 VR was that Psychonauts midquel... which is doubly sad, because Astro Bot himself was one of those freebies. And PS5? The only non-Astro game I ever had an interest in got released on Steam a while back, and I'll end up with a PC up to par with its specs eventually! The same was almost the case with the PS Move having Heroes on the Move... but then I found a remote at a garage sale. And there was a used Move camera for cheap. And the actual game was very cheap too. All at the same time. It all added up to a normal low-end price. Somehow I doubt the same will happen with the VR components, and _especially_ the PS5.

That being last year doesn't take away from the fact that this game connects in a unique way from all of the Nintendo, PlayStation, Sega, or even Xbox platformers on my shelf - many of which aren't nearly as much pure fun to play. If games like this were coming out every other week, shit, I'd be playing my Switch a lot more, and there'd be world peace.
