This is 100% my type of game and I hope it sells a bajillion times more copies than Concord to remind the industry and the gaming public as a whole that games don't have to be such dour, political agenda-riddled depression fests all the time. The interactivity and physics also ironically make Astro Bot feel more "quadruple-A" (in a good way) than most games that have slightly more stunning and realistic graphics, but otherwise have the interactivity, freedom and physics system of a bad licensed PS1 game from 1996.

[@monopoman]

[@JeffreyThrash]

@@monopoman Yeah, unfortunately there's a massive difference between being critically-acclaimed and being a commercial success, and so far Sony seems to have knee-capped the game's success in Japan (where I would imagine a more-whimsical game like this would do better) by drastically increasing the price of the base PS5, not that a constantly-on-the-move culture like Japan would really want a home console or anything not as portable as the Switch or smartphones either way.

@@angelicambyence I'm not sure I fully agree with this. It would certainly be an issue, had the developers not put so much care and attention into the game. The put respect on all of these other IPs in such a fun way, that I personally view it more as a celebration of the platform itself rather than a crazy expensive marketing ploy. At the end of the day, AAA game development still somehow has its place in the industry, and is obviously a business that requires money to operate. While they may prioritize quality of content over their bottom line, Larian is still certainly making games to generate revenue, else BG3 wouldn't exist as we know it. It being a Playstation-centric game is not inherently bad. It's no different than how Nintendo inserts its own branding into Mario Kart and many of its other games that include multiple Nintendo characters from different IPs. People love these ecosystems and characters. Like I said, it's just a fun way to get all of these IP into one surprisingly exceptional game. I don't think it's as deep as you suggest. But also, the nature of capitalistic corporate structures is rooted in evil, so if we wanna go there, then fuck all these companies.

I almost wish I hadn't gotten a PS5 as a surprise gift last Christmas. I would have been spared the emotional rollercoaster that is Sony in 2024 (not that I would have been spared the emotional rollercoaster of the 2024 US Election, but at least I would have had only one emotional rollercoaster to deal with this year instead of two). Unfortunately, Astro Bot's impact is already being diminished by Sony's catastrophic decisions elsewhere. For example, it is bombing in Japan because Sony inflated the price of a PS5 there by a whopping $200 (Imagine paying around $699 just for the base PS5, not even the PS5 Pro), further proving they have abandoned the Japanese market. Dunkey and MoistKritikal are probably making videos of this game right now in a desperate attempt to ensure it at least sells well in Western countries. The last thing we need from Sony is to be disappointed in Astro Bot's sales and conclude they need to remake Concord for another 8+ years and double the budget of the original to win gamers back--and only make it playable on the PS7 Pro Max Overdrive retailing at $6,990,000 (PS7 Pro Max Overdrive not included with price).

This is, without hyperbole, the best PS5 exclusive. Heck, I'd say that even without all the funkopop cameos. They did it folks! They just gave us a "game" game.

[@-smellerbee-]

I don't think it should get "best" treatment. A lot of PlayStation exclusives are full of substance, at least in terms of story and morals and dialogue. This game is pure fun and that's awesome, but personally I can't disregard that aspect

[@redphrynge]

[@Saavokken]

​@@-smellerbee- i may be entirely wrong but i feel like most games kinda focus more on "best graphics and unique story" and not try to experiment with unique gameplay/controls, like when Mario Odyssey came out it felt like a real breath of fresh air in the gaming community, and Astro Bot highly reminds me of Mario Odyssey (im not saying those games are the best , they just stand out in a good way)

How is it a game with pieces of every game ever released to a platform has more originality and personality than a self proclaimed AAAA title? Truly a mystery of game design.

[@RaphDeGrate]

It really isn’t that original, it’s just really well executed. Fusing a collectathon with smash levels of references is kinda new tho. It feels refreshingly full of heart. This was a product the team not only wanted to make but enjoyed making. And there was no way the Sony execs thought it would be that big a deal so they probably weren’t micromanaging and breathing down the devs necks. The rest of the AAA industry is too caught up with making a product while this was about making a fun nostalgia passion project.
