Game Worlds That Magically Transported Us - The PlayStation Access Podcast

[@burrito4332]

Ash was an incredible part of the team, so much so that her tenure with PS Access felt like it went by very quickly. That said, Rob has led Access for a very long time and in recent years it's been easy to forget just how talented and charismatic he is, and always has been. Superb hosting, Rob!!

[@jayjayson9613]

I am so happy the podcast is continuing! Thank you crew!!!

[@BL00MYB0Y]

Absolutely. I was concerned there wouldn’t be anymore 😅

[@intrepidis1]

Me too, +1, seconded. 👍

[@jeremyhoward6499]

Ditto I'm glad it lives!

[@silentCaim]

The empty space on the sofa 😢 but Rob is a great host, gonna enjoy the pod on my way home ~

[@rubberbandit8210]

💔

[@mikkdc]

Doesn't feel right does it? I mean, I know there were podcasts without Ash before but knowing she has left, it just hits different. Like you say, Rob does a great job, though. Knew he would do a good job but it's gonna take some getting used to there only being 3, for the time being at least.

[@randomness051]

​@@mikkdcI don't think there were podcasts without Ash. She started it

[@bigzachful]

@@randomness051 Fr? I thought I remember them having them before. Maybe they were just shorter sit down conversations.

[@AndySloan444]

There have been a few pods without Ash. Nath has stepped in as guest host for a couple, and I'm sure Rob has hosted at least once before

[@just_crowe]

Dave is the one who sold me on Midnight Suns back when it came out, been singing it’s praises ever since. The game is one of my favourite modern games, big time recommend

[@MariaIsabel_Fufuria]

PS Access has always been my comfort channel. ❤ Still grieving Ash's departure but I love you guys somuchos! The worlds that had heavy influences on me creatively were Spira (FFX), FF8 and Bushido Blade 1&2. 😂😅❤

[@amberanime]

yeah Ash is missed. But I do feel slightly better with the hope that it's likely Ash will pop up from time to time as a guest appearence.

[@jackthursby5794]

Rob is the BEST at this! This is the perfect trio!

[@emilymitchell6823]

The Queen of Darkness will always be missed, but Rob did an unsurprisingly fantastic job!

[@TimeSprout]

The world I'd love to see in a video game is Discworld. I know we had the point and click adventures in the 90s, but a full sandbox RPG in Discworld would be glorious.

[@malcolmpeake8893]

I'm so happy the podcast continues, I had wondered if it would end with Ash gone.

[@martynpotter21]

Really good podcast, thoroughly enjoyed it. I rate highly a game's ability to magically transport me to another time and place so thank you for covering this topic. Red Dead Redemption II was fantastic for this (and I'm currently replaying it now) along with The Witcher 3. Early on days in Assassin's Creed with Ezio were amazing at this also.

[@kisahla]

I’m so glad this podcast is continuing, even after Ash. She will be sorely missed, but I have complete faith the other hosts will do an awesome job at it as well!Thanks so much for keeping this format going. I, for one, am very much looking forward to many more cozy hot beverage breaks, listening and watching you guys talk about video games and other real life flesh people stuff. 🩵

[@martynpotter21]

Rob: Have you heard of Wayland Smithy? Proceeds to put tablet down, cross leg and assume storytelling position.

[@miladyswaggins]

I think Rob is a really good pick for new host of the pod. Missing Ash ofc, but enjoyed nevertheless

[@JohnWalker857]

I like what Dave said about owning a spaceship. The ability to walk about it and explore it sounds great. This is what i would like to see in No Man's Sky someday.

[@HOLLAifYouFEARme]

THAT PARROT HAD NO BUSINESS BEING SO GOOD😂😂😂😂

[@mikkdc]

That is an absolutely brilliant shout from Rob. Having a futuristic Dark Souls game set in a game world similar to the Callisto Protocol would be fantastic!

[@Jonathon_Hennessey]

Some of the video game worlds that I've been to that have been incredible are Elden Ring's the lands between. As soon as I left the tutorial area and entered Limgrave, I knew I was in for something special. The other areas like Raya Lucaria and Caelid look great too. Some other worlds that I've enjoyed visiting include Skyrim from the fifth Elder Scrolls game and Sevastopol Station from Alien Isolation.

[@xneurianx]

I am playing Dragon's Dogma 2 with a warrior with an archer as my main pawn. The PS Access pawns are level 8 (or were when I played!) and are SO useful early on in the game. My little level 3 guy hired Ashen and Rosie for our party. I eventually had to swap them out when I got to higher levels and really needed a healer, but it was really fun and helpful - also they don't cost any rift malarkey so you get great assistance in the early game for freeeeee! Thanks for the helping hand guys!

[@GeorgeSulc97]

Fashion Rosie 💁🏻‍♀️ loving the pants and the fact that podcast is back ❤️‍🔥

[@ChrisWTube]

I want a Souls style action RPG set in Ancient Egypt along with all of its Gods and mythology

[@kirbyrawstorne]

I really enjoyed the sign off from Dad-Rob. Next time I'm hoping for the full "Behave yourselves, put a jumper on - it's a bit nippy out, and here's a fiver (don't tell your mum)"

[@JimmyDoesGames]

I remember (and loved) Lego Lord of The Rings, I would love a full on, serious, open world RPG that plays through The Hobbit and LoTR. Probably 3-4 disks of content 😂

[@raccoonpeddler6730]

i like how rob pretty much described the surge series, dolmen and hellpoint in the setting he has never explored

[@dumpsterrama6571]

Really glad these are still going!

[@MrRitchieevans]

great sound design, great lighting and dynamic weather are things that I love in games when they’re done amazingly (physics a nice addition too but I’ve a weakness for great dynamic lighting lol)

[@blueplanet9917]

GREAT PODCAST. Rob, Dave and Rosie are the best!

[@rubberbandit8210]

Rosie, can I just say your trousers are amazing ❤

[@resiefan3258]

Very nice yes 👍😊

[@BL00MYB0Y]

This comment cracked me up, I don’t know why…..I suppose it’s because it was so random 😁

[@CoreyKaha]

I'm glad the podcast is continuing; it was Ash's baby and one of the best new things to come to Access.

[@bdt3367]

The main man Robby P stepping in as the podcast host. Love it!

[@amberanime]

Game worlds that really pulled me in, for very different reasons: 1: Dark sould 1 (that moment when you realise almost every path leads back to firelink is goosebumps) 2: Subnautica (it's as beautifull as it is terrifying and while your playing this game you will not be thinking about anything else ever. It completely pulls you in regardles if you want to or not. ) 3:Horizon zero dawn (first time playing I was pure escapism. I never felt as at home somewhere in a game as there. The magic of the combination of the beautifull lush world, giant majestic robots and the ruins of the metal world and hight tech cauldrons just made this world feel unique and wonderfull.) 4: Journey (there was something spiritual almost about traversing this world. It seems like such a simple world, and it is, but its done so well you cant help but be in awe. Its hard to explain exactly why it pulls you in so strongly, but it does.)

[@davidludwig7501]

Speaking of fantasy I have been replaying Skyrim again. With about 100 mods. What a game. The music. The exploration is unmatched. Also going to play Forbidden West on my new pc. I already played on my ps5. Looking forward to that as well.

[@krookedvulture]

Rob's Space-Souls game sounds amazing ... I want it!

[@DaRkLoRd-rc5yu]

Metroid prime 4 👀

[@MrPaddy2010]

Rosie’s recap needs to be a thing!😂

[@adamknight1322]

Thanks so much Access that the wonderful Podcast is continuing after the amazing and talented Ash left Access. Rob as host is such a brilliant choice. Hearing Rob talk about Dark Souls in space sounds like a incredible and interesting idea.

[@noskillzdad5504]

I can confirm the parrot thing: We had a parrot and she hated absolutely everyone in the family except for me.

[@kingoverseas9052]

I used Rob and Rosie's pawns when starting out. The likeness and voices were mental.

[@geoffbaumgartner5335]

I thought Bioshock Infinite was earlier than 50's so I checked and B1 (Rapture) takes place in 1960, but was built in the 40's. Columbia (infinite) takes place in 1912. If anyone else was curious...

[@langleymneely]

I don’t know if I can survive without Ash!? She will be missed, but don’t sell your pun skills short Rob!❤

[@MrTrippy11]

Sad to see Ash leave Access, however i have always thought the Pod works better with 3 people when someone was off on holibobs etc... Another great episode 👌

[@powerfantastic01]

Yes, Midnight Suns was fantastic! Couldn't put it down.

[@joshritchie6033]

Thought Rob was gonna introduce Rosie and Dave as 'Rosie and Jim'

[@ABadassDragon]

I could count amazing settings forever. Faerun, Tamriel, Lands Between, Fallouts post apocalypse, Horizons post apocalypse, the Oldest House, Dunwall and Karnaca of Dishonoured, Yarnham, Night City and on and on and on. Games are unparaleled when it comes to settings

[@forestdump9776]

Outer wilds, Robs just describing outer wilds. He even played it!

[@intrepidis1]

You know in previous podcasts, where one of the team wasn't present... this is like the one single impossible combination. Watching it is like some spooky dream. Great though. 👍

[@Viscount_Buster]

Rob you can rent cinemas out for gaming. 😊 Years back I used to work for a certain cinema chain and some of the sites after their staff meetings used to have pizza and hook up their consoles for some games. Since the projectors were being changed to digital its easy enough to do. Sadly our manager didn't let us do it 😂

[@Grey_Warden_Invasion]

Wasn't there really a case though in which a bird was a witness? Of course not like in Ace Attorney, there was no cross examination of a parrot, but I vaguely remember something about a bird that had been present at the crime scene and that, while acting pretty calm around other people, absolutely freaked out whenever it saw the culprit.

[@eliascortina2204]

My current boyfriend... Oh what a way to be introduced 😂

[@cabbagesavage6411]

I work at a movie theatre, and sometimes when my mother-in-law is staying with us I’ll stay late at work and hook up my PS5 to the big screen

[@michaelwill5972]

The podcast lives🎉

[@jbzhummerh2gamer]

Skyrim has the best sound/music design. Especially when it comes to random encounters, dragons, and special enemies.

[@fett01]

Rob and Dave need to play Observation. Though, frankly, everyone should play Observation

[@Jedi_Chimp]

#podsquad If Kratos punched Weyland would he drop his rings like sonic the hedgehog? 🤣

[@TheRatsCast]

Ash's voice has never been missed so much more than right now. 😢

[@MrSamsonite23]

Ok so Dying Light. I just always loved that world and its sandbox!

[@LazarusKing1990]

Probably the best audience to ask this : Can you play Dragon’s Dogma WITHOUT using the online Pawn system and just play with your single created Pawn ? 🤔🤔 I only ask because I’ve seen people revisit DD : Dark Arisen preparing for DD2 and it’s peaked my interest as I enjoy open world single player character creation games. Would like honest answers / recommendation. 😁😁👍🏻👍🏻

[@PlayStationAccess]

There's nothing forcing you to recruit more pawns. Can just be you and your main pawn. But it would make it much harder and a bit lonelier.

[@LazarusKing1990]

@@PlayStationAccess Firstly, it’s an honour to receive a reply from the Access team itself.😱😱 Secondly, thank you for the clarification. Even though I don’t own a PS5 (yet) I’ll most definitely look into buying Dark Arisen on PS4.👍🏻👍🏻😁😁

[@stillbald5827]

Rob is such a great host!

[@ManoelAReis-wg8fq]

I would love to explore Naruto's world in an RPG game. Imagine running around Konoha, talking to people and doing your ninja missiona!

[@waf3I]

Friday = freya's day

[@fidget18s48]

Yes Dave. Great shout. I also want to explore Mos Eisley, have a poke around and get to know the place. It’s what Hogwarts Legacy allowed up to do. I also wish to do the same with Rivendell.

[@chintum-d5i]

My fav online gaym still has been gw1;

[@jerrydidrik]

Rob is just describing dead space.

[@ABadassDragon]

Im finally gonna play Forbidden West on pc now, cant wait. Will wait for Dogma 2 to get optimized a bit and besides i still need to finish BG3, im just about to finish it, beat Raphael yesterday, what a fight

[@DaRkLoRd-rc5yu]

Sounds like rob would love metroid prime 4 whenever it comes out.

[@soliddrake11]

I’m sad to see Ash go, but everytime I start a PlayStation access video and it’s Rob’s voice I become elated and that has been happening more often lately.

[@n-kap4064]

Another wicked Pod.

[@GarrettMcFarlane]

Originally played in 1997, and have played the remake, but because of Dave i must venture back into Gaia. Question for Rob , what are your plans for Metal Gear solid remake? I cant imagine the escapades that will happen, return of solid snake Rob. If they have an online version will your nemesis return?

[@jamogable]

looking forward to Rosie's LotR Return of the King recap!

[@Liam_Bonser]

we need a dragons dogma 2 stream!

[@simonpeterms]

It’s the dark souls universe for me. Especially DS1 and DS3. 😊

[@TheMoonatDawn]

C'mon, the puns were a part of this. Bring them back :p

[@TapsMan16]

Rob has trancended to host... GOOD TIMES

[@memoryandthought4481]

I recall in the tintin broken ear adventure the parrot knew the murderer name and both tintin and thieves wanted the parrot for the same reason.

[@resiefan3258]

Transported us hmmm.....as a middle aged guy i must say games from PS1, PS2, xbox, n64, gamecube and dreamcast transported me more than any other games.

[@ti4833]

I think We Happy Few is a great world!

[@stanpalmerzan4288]

#PODSquad #VODSquad If there was a game based off of British/Celtic mythology it'll get good if lore was added like the hairy hands of Dartmoor

[@ajinkyakhanzode5015]

It’s too painful 🙂 rather, it’s too punful 🙃 Hee hee, miss the Ash puns. But thanks for keeping the podcast alive 🙏🏻

[@seanp8220]

Last FF7 stream on Monday guys, make sure you be there or be square(soft)

[@syeddanishanwer]

Hi everyone. Im from Pakistan . I really like your gaming videos.

[@nowaz]

Rosie gets funnier and funnier with each video that gets posted.

[@jediJake97]

Dave have you looked at Star Trek Resurgence? Telltale like game, I had a lot of fun with it.

[@user-hi4sm3ig5j]

There's a Euro Truck Simulator and an American Truck Simulator. There should be an Aussie Truck Simulator. Not enough games are set in Australia (or I don't know of any anyway).

[@Steevie.]

I think Dave was trying to say that sound is a character

[@Steevie.]

Damn Rob just said it 😄

[@ProcrastinatingGameCat]

It seems to me like Rosie and Dave would just like a NPC the game adventure

[@neilclarkwork]

I’m currently playing Dragon’s Dogma 2 with Dave and Rosie in my party. Sorry Rob, I’m a Ranger so I don’t need you at the moment.

[@zazoreal5536]

#Podsquad What is the best thing a pawn has said to you in Dragon's Dogma 2? My pawn told me that I am still the best master out of all those she served under.😳🥴💗

[@BigBear_87]

where was nath to discuss witcher 3? would have loved a mini cameo

[@allercon]

Yeah you can rent cinemas in New Zealand to hook up consoles and have a game night

[@NeroCrucible]

Hellpoint came close to that Scifi~Darksouls

You say that nobody has been in the tombs in Tomb Raider for hundreds of years, but someone left all those health packs and ammo lying around, so clearly someone else has been there since, they were just clever enough not to set off all the traps that elephant feet Lara Croft always sets off.
