Hey dude! Loved your Room Tour Video, it’s a great setup! 1. I’m sure this has been asked before, but I’m unaware. Where did you come up with the name “Mystic”? 2. With the Switch having turned 6 this month in March, new Nintendo hardware has been speculated for Holiday 2024. Do you think from now until then, the Switch has potential to outsell the PS2? Hope you’re doing well. Take care!

2023-03-29 23:16:24 +0000 UTCHey Ryan! What is your favorite part of making videos? Filming, cutting, designing thumbnails etc.? Any new plans for your channel now since you moved and now have a bigger office space?

2023-03-26 15:14:55 +0000 UTCHey Ryan, congrats on finally moving! Hope you're all settled in now. Loves the house tour video 😀. My question is do you still plan on setting up a PlayStation "museum"? Think I remember you mentioning you have some BNIB hardware you wanted to put in glass cabinets so you can admire there beauty scratch and dust free 😍

2023-03-25 11:06:43 +0000 UTCHi Mystic, hope you and Melissa are settling into the new house and are doing well! Will you be doing an individual platinum video for Resident Evil 4 Remake as you did for Cuphead, Returnal, etc? What is your favourite personal controller? Not your favourite console general controller but, the individual controller you favour the most (Red PS3 controller, Purple PS4 controller, rather than just the PS3 controller or PS4 controller in general). Not quite sure how to word it, so hope that makes sense! What is the video on your channel, if there is one, that you are the proudest of?

2023-03-24 13:33:06 +0000 UTCWhat is a platinum that comes to mind that you’re proud you didn’t give up on? Similarly, what’s a platinum you did have to call it quits on?

2023-03-23 21:32:14 +0000 UTCHey Ryan, Hope all is smooth with getting settled in your new place. It feels surreal since I’ve been watching since the original house! For my question: What is your opinion on the Activision Blizzard buyout? Do you think it will be good for the industry and do you want to see it go through? All the best, Isaiah

2023-03-23 16:03:18 +0000 UTCHi Ryan, really enjoyed your game room video and glad to see it take shape. You showed that you ran a network cable, did you run many more across the house? What’s your home network looking like? Do you have a network rack setup with a NAS somewhere? And would you be open to showing us?

2023-03-22 02:27:37 +0000 UTCCurrently watching the moving video! Seeing how huge your collection is, it's making me wonder... How do you choose what physical games are you going to buy? Like, you buy every game you see mildly interesting? Do you buy games twice on physical and digital? Hope you are doing well, love your videos. Greetings from Mexico!

2023-03-22 00:13:31 +0000 UTCWill u do a video on crossgen games? Like looking at games on the weaker playstation consoles. (Ps3 version over the ps4 or ps4 version over ps5).

2023-03-21 16:44:26 +0000 UTCFirstly, congratulations on the move! The new place looks great, and your moving video was very well put together. You really flexed your editing skills, I thought. Like with that one shelf by the door. Does your studio room get hot with all the electronics, or does AC take care of that? Also, I recommend some non-slip lining for your shelves! 10/10 changed my life.

2023-03-21 16:12:43 +0000 UTCHey Ryan, loved the collection tour/setup video you posted, I eat that kind of stuff up. My question for you is: Has there ever been a trophy or game that you have given up on purely because of its difficulty? You've talked in the past of giving up on platinums because of monotony or being too time consuming, but I'm referring to something being just too challenging that you have to throw in the towel. For example, I had to give up on the Hollow Knight platinum because I reached a personal skill ceiling that I could not surpass with the Pantheon "Boss Rush" challenge. Love the videos, hope life goes well for you and keep up the great work!

2023-03-21 13:54:15 +0000 UTCHey big man. Here's a fun situation to think about. In the TLOU show, since the pandemic happened on 9/27/03, people would still have PS2's. So my question is what games would you recommend in the apocalypse? PS: You can also think of other consoles' games if PS2 isn't coming to mind.

2023-03-21 13:00:47 +0000 UTCHey Ryan, thanks for making such stellar content. I am seriously stoked for this year's 30 platinums in a month video, I rewatch those videos often - think you could give us a teaser of some games in the lineup? Trophy hunting can be a big time commitment for some games, what is one game you would love to play to completion, but is simply too big? In honour of the PSVR2 release, what is one IP you'd like to be given the VR treatment? Thanks Ryan - stay classy😎

2023-03-21 06:30:34 +0000 UTCHi Ryan, you know the Sony corporation very well so beside the PlayStation division what other Sony products should they focus and try to get more attention? I do own others like the Alpha 7 cameras for my professional photography career, the WH noise cancelling headphones loving the quality. Is there any other Sony product that you would be interested? Thanks bud and good luck 😉

2023-03-20 22:15:52 +0000 UTChey again ryan, i asked last q&a about vernors and wondered if you remembered about it for this time, if so, any thoughts? and, what are your thoughts on the gran turismo film? feels like sony hasnt promoted it one bit. have a good one and good luck on the house improvements!
cole miller
2023-03-20 13:30:39 +0000 UTCHi, Ryan. Which videos or accomplishments on YouTube are you most proud of? I'm a big fan of your documentaries; do you think we'll see more of those from you or have you exhausted all of the major topics you're interested in covering for the time being?
Andrew Burnes
2023-03-20 04:50:50 +0000 UTCRyan, why do you think Sony have such a hard time getting the ”total time played” accurate? The problem seems to be so widespread over such a long period of time but also sporadic, with some people experiencing incorrect playtimes and others never encountering the issue. To my knowledge, Sony have never publicly acknowledged the issue, and now they are even moving the play time to the games’ landing page to give more visibility. Just what is the issue here? I appreciate everything you do, your hard work and dedication has not gone unnoticed. I love to watch your channel in the bath, it’s nothing weird really but it’s just PlayStation and chill !!

2023-03-20 00:41:28 +0000 UTCHope you are doing well Ryan. I recently played the Sly Cooper 1 & 2 for the first time and got the platinums for those game. They were a nice surprise to play. My question is what ever happened to all those Hannah Montana PS2 games that you got? Do you still have them? Also, how do you keep your room dust free? As always, thanks for your amazing content!
Jeremy Joyner
2023-03-19 19:13:44 +0000 UTCWho is your favorite Sony first party game developer? Is it Naughty Dog? Whoever it is, can you share a personal story as to why you love them and why their games are so impactful to you?

2023-03-19 18:35:58 +0000 UTCHey Ryan I hope all is well. I dig your new crib. Will your new location mean we might have new guests mentioned in LTPS episodes or featured in occasional Tuesday uploads? Would you be able to inform us when the latest PlayStation beta software goes live? Do you think it would be typical Sony to aquire Battlefield franchise from EA/EA itself to counter COD being eventually exclusive to Microsoft? I think it was a smart move to spend TLOU Part II into three seasons. That way when and if there's a part III. Bella Ramsey won't have an age gap with Ellie. "Everything happens for a reason?" Right.

2023-03-19 14:21:20 +0000 UTCHey Ryan! Do you primarily game in one room or do you have multiple gaming setups around the house. I have my ps5 in the office but sometimes i want to game in the living room but don't feel like physically moving the ps5 back and forth. Do you think remote play would work well in my situation or what setup do you recommend.

2023-03-19 13:35:31 +0000 UTCHi Ryan! Hope everything went well with the moving. Thanks for all the great content over the years! Q1: How's Melissa adapting to the new house? Q2: How's Brandon? You 2 had such great chemistry in the videos, hope you're still great friends. Would love to see him in a video again one day. Q3: During the first years of your channel the growth was a bit slow compared to what it is now. Did you believe it would blow up like it did or did you you start just accepting it would be a long slow journey to "success"? Glad you're getting the recognition you deserve keep up the great work!!

2023-03-19 11:49:13 +0000 UTCHey Rayan! I hope everything goes well. As far as video games are concerned, do you think it's equally "fair" to pay the same release price for games that have extremely different lengths in hours? For example an RPG and a platform? I think that if a game doesn't last long but is qualitatively excellent, it deserves to spend that money, as opposed to an usual RPG which perhaps has always the same mechanics, but can still entertain you and amuse you for many hours. And then a question that I don't know if you'll get an answer: why doesn't Sony put in its catalog all its own past exclusives for PS1, PS2, PS3 and PSP, such as the Jack and Dexter saga, the Uncharted saga or even the God of War saga? Thank you for your passion and hard work in your YT channel.

2023-03-19 08:09:56 +0000 UTCHey Ryan, how do you like your new house? I was wondering if you had an option on the whole DKOLDIES thing that’s been happening over the last month or two of them really getting exposed as being frauds and not cleaning their consoles.
Quinn Q Miller
2023-03-19 06:52:40 +0000 UTCHi Ryan! How are things for you in the new house? Hope you (and Melissa) are happy about the new place. :) My question for you would be about PSVR2 : do you reckon we’re going to have more AAA first-party VR titles similar to Horizon Call of the Mountain? I don’t own a PSVR1, but considering my previous experience with PS Vita (great first-party launch titles, then literally nothing from Sony lol), I can’t help but feel that this was sort of a one-time thing, and that Sony will mostly rely on third-party content for PSVR2 from now on. Hope I’m wrong of course as Horizon was such a blast!

2023-03-19 06:45:46 +0000 UTCHi Ryan, hope all is well and you are settling well into the new house. Thanks as always for your hard work and the great content. What are you focusing on this year in regards to collecting? Any trends your fellow collectors should be looking out for?
Sam Brown
2023-03-19 06:39:52 +0000 UTCIs there any PS studios game considered "highly acclaimed" that you don't enjoy, and also a PS Studios game that you enjoy that doesn't get enough love?
Zain
2023-03-19 04:28:49 +0000 UTCI’ve always agreed with you that a PS5 Pro doesn’t make much sense in this generation. But if they do do it, do you think there’s a chance it’s not focused on increasing performance of PS5 games? What if a PS5 Pro is a more premium build quality? Or has backwards compatibility with PS1 and PS2 discs? Or even crazier, has a 28nm cell processor in there. I know I’m in dreamland here but what features could they add that would sell you on a pro model?
