Bit of a different video today everyone! I spent several weeks putting together something non-horror game themed that I was really passionate about making. Let me know if you'd like more videos like this in the future from time to time.

I'm glad that other people love astro's playroom, it was one of my favorite games.

[MR.Sculptor]

Glad you aren’t only making horror game videos. I would love more videos like this every month!

[doppochins]

17:12 That one Astro is really giving heavy metal😂
The happy dance after defeating the dinosaur is adorable! As well as many things in this game I suppose))

I loved it so much! You might be Super Horror Bro, but that doesn’t mean we don’t appreciate other kind of content.

I liked this a bit of a relaxing change from analyzing horror games to just research the PS5 and others I like this and would enjoy seeing some more videos like this in the future

I've been wanting to make a video of the Astro/Playroom series for a while and I'm happy to see other covering it. Definitely one of the most unappreciated Sony mascots

[eyongi]

I've always wanted you to branch out from horror videos, as I really love your video style and vibe, so I'm all for this! I would love to see you go through the Cult in Night in the Woods, theories about Firewatch, any Nintendo games, or just more videos about games you're passionate about, like Astro! Great work as always

I played Astro's Playroom as my 3rd Playstation 5 game. First was Marvel's Spider-Man Miles Morales, which Insomniac really did a great job and I 100% it in 3 days. Second was God Fall, where I was interested in the story but stopped playing after the first level because I got bored and haven't touched it since. And Astro's Playroom third and I believed that game was the game to use the PS5's capabilities. I even 100% it I might just go back and revisit it.
Plus I love these kinds of videos a lot so maybe you may make more in the future.

I really wish astro's playroom was longer, it was SO much fun 😢

[talkinginmycar]

I love the more passion project attribute to this video, just know that we love to hear about it! Great video!

[RadRoachRiv]

It was genuinely saddening getting all trophies in the game. It was so good and the world was the most alive.

[Periloux]

This notification actually jumpscared me lmao Mike uploading something not related to horror is actually pretty scary

Really, I was not expecting this but I'll certainly enjoy this :D

[kevintravers]

When I played Astro's playroom I was so taken aback by just how simple and fun it was. Cuz I've grown up with every era of Playstation, this had such a Zen vibe to it. When Astro Bot was announced I was so excited because it was more of the same thing which is what all of us who loved it, wanted. Fact that they updated the playroom game to include new content with a secret room and portal just has such an air of synergy that just continues to delight. It's hard to describe it but this game and now series, just brings me back to being a kid with that sense of grand wonder and feeling of everything we've played being all interconnected.

[The-Great-Bukini]

This is a nice change from all the horror. I've owned the PlayStation 5 for less than a year, and Astro's Playroom was the first thing I played before anything else. I've never had so much fun in a video game before. And that's saying a lot from someone who's played dozens of games off of several platforms.

[Thatoneguy]

The PS2 boot up sound gave me such a big hit of nostalgia! That was great!

[Freaky-Raine]

I guess his mind needed to take a break from playing horror due to how traumatized it is.

I'd be down for more content like this. I love your reflective dives into games and stories, so having more options to do that sounds like a fun idea.
Of course, whatever you want to do is most important. Dont burn yourself out or make content just because people are asking for it.
