The blog comments section on the Astro Bot game page is in a frenzy, just about every post is about how disrespectful and disgraceful it is that the game wasn’t advertised for PSVR2. Keep it going guys ! Lets keep posting over there along with liking Bryan’s tweet
This is a legitimate controversy that should deservedly blow up way bigger than HellDiver's, but it won't get anywhere nor be acknowledged by media/Sony.
I genuinely don't get the move by Sony not to bring a VR2 version of Astro. Millions spent to third parties to bring their titles over, but won't invest in their own studio. It makes zero sense to me.
Sony is like that ex-girlfriend that you have a shred of hope reconciling with. You make excuses and justifications for them. You even allow yourself to feel a sense of false optimism from lack of any real actions, trying to connect false imaginary dots and decipher what's in their head. Today, it is time to let that hope go.
Sony just taking a complete dump on all the PSVR1/2 owners that embraced the Astro franchise from the beginning with a nice flat screen release of basically the PSVR1 mascot. Astro was a constant top 3-5 game on the first gen VR. This is such bull sh*t!
@@Mi_Mono right, i hate robots to begin with, they are just circuits and not real....can't relate. Also I grew up reading Aesop fables and such so doing the anthropomorphic thing with animals always works like sonic the hedgehog etc.
There is absolutely no reason for Astrobots to not VR and it feels like a slap in the face to PSVR2 owners that it's not in VR. I have zero interest in a flat screen Astrobot. I have been optimistic about Sony's support since launch, but I'm finally joining those that have lost faith in Sony supporting this themselves outside of paying devs like Capcom to make their games VR. And even that seems like it's going to be very far and few. With that said, Behemoth and Aliens look awesome so far
The thing is, I would be happy if Sony paid other studios for their AAA games in VR. But they seem to think that Resident Evil Village and 4 is enough until PS6. Really shi* by Sony.
The reason is down to money. Development costs for games have gone through the roof in recent years to the point the industry could actually collapse. The average development time for games went from 2 years last gen to 5 years this gen. Cost to make games has become so high that anything not wildly successful can sink a studio. Which is why so many studios are going for live service games as they can bring in money for years instead of a burst of income when a game launches. Sony looked at the data of how many people are actually playing their VR headset and decided a 2% increase in sales wasn’t worth the months of extra development time Astrobot would need to be a VR game. Before anyone asks I am basing the number off of the player statistics of the recent RE4 remake as only 1.5 % of people who own the game have played it in VR. The gaming industry is just too fragile right now not to make as much money as possible and VR simply isn’t a money maker.
@patricklove7055 I'm definitely fully aware the decision was based on money. I'm just saying that this proves to myself that Sony isn't going to support this headset themselves. So I'm personally no longer going to be optimistic about them
@@patricklove7055Money is involved, but it also involves technical advancement to bring VR to life. They need to get more attention from top engineers to figure out how to cut dev costs and make it easier to build for PSVR 2. I still don’t think VR would be mainstream, but bring a few more games to the platform.
I'm done. I paid £530 for this thing expecting a console like lifecycle of at least a few first party games over the years. For Astrobot it's such a simple thing for them to support the headset, but they must have decided its just not worth the effort.
AstroBot is the final nail in the coffin, first Insomniac now Asobi, all VR-enthusiast studios have been forced away from developing VR, not even allowed to do minor game modes. We can 100% forget about Alyx and future 1st party support, I bet even the Call of the Mountain studio is doing live service now, so much for that Hybrid initiative when their VR mascot champion couldn't even get any VR support. Whatever plans you heard all those years ago about hybrids was clearly discarded not long after you heard them. After letting camoflaj get aquired and letting Firewall's studio shut down, plus all of this, it's time we finally accept defeat and support/spotlight those who actually care for VR.
@@SB-ln6kb Sony can subsidize the losses quite easily like they're trying to do now with live service games covering for their single player ones, I'm sure PSVR1 games weren't exactly making great profits either. These devs were forced cause given the freedom they would've at least chosen secondary VR modes/hybrids.
@@SB-ln6kb Console VR can work with wireless/streaming and different/cheaper headset models for different customers. Meta's PC streaming works flawlessly, that eliminates the wires, and having a cheaper model lowers the barrier to entry.

@@SB-ln6kb Most of Meta’s losses are in Metaverse developments not gaming, which are long term investments intended to lose money for a decade or more to establish Web 3.0, we cannot gauge their gaming success off of overall profits. Gaming investments are pretty reserved compared to Xbox spending nearly 80 billion for a failed GamePass, which is probably more than all of Meta’s investments combined let alone just gaming. The investments Sony puts towards lesser things like accessibility in their games shows they have no excuse for the bare minimum hybrids, something as basic as the Unreal mod is all people really need to help sell plenty of units.

Astrobot not in VR would suggest to me that the Sony have in fact dropped 1st party support for the PSVR2, absolutely crazy......tweet, tweet.....Astrobot......tweet, tweet. I would guess that, that also means that none of the phenomenal PSVR1 games will be getting the PSVR2 treatment either, such a sad day.😢
I don't know if you noticed it. At 115-119 min in on the astro trailer. He is wearing a psvr headset. If it does not come to vr that is the biggest slap in the fac
Plenty of VR references and references to all PlayStation hardware in Playroom, plus in this trailer, so thats to be expected, but still a slap either way.
The funny thing is all the flat gamers confused with all the PSVR2 comments on the Astro posts. "Why y'all want a sequel of the Playroom game on VR" haha wow
Is the term flat gamers supposed to be demeaning as it sounds close to flat earthers? Better give me ff7 rebirth VR now or imma Boycott all video games.
@@SB-ln6kb You are right...but still yet....i could not imagine they would develop an Astrobot game for years only for PS5. This has nothing to do how well or bad PSVR2 launched last year....they simply never considered it. Seemed to be unlikley and brutal just as you say. When it comes to PS5 Support you have mentioned one important thing. The PSSR Superresolution feature is the main thing boosting the performance, because the hardware itself is not that much stronger against the PS5 compared to what PS4 PRO vs PS4 has been. It is all over the Foveated Eyetracking Rendering problem again. PSSR needs to be compatible with the game engines, it needs support from Sony to be implemented..it needs an additional coder doing the job. All those things that lead to the situation many Devs never touched Foveated Eyetracking Rendering for PSVR2 in the first place. And now in combination with PSSR there is an additonal step to do. It becomes less likely in my eyes to see it or even both features (Dyn FOV + PSSR) at the same time. Pure Raw Power would have been much easier to access. So considering that indie Devs (which most VR-Developers are more or less) dont have the $$$ to do that, i do not see it becoming a much better VR-Plattform compared to the PS5 itself. And about GT7 - well that is Sony choice :) And from now on i trust more any low budget Indie-Dev to do the job, but not Sony. Im done with them and very angry.
Some interesting titles coming up, but no Astrobot for the PSVR2 is very disappointing. Stoked for a new Astro but clearly massive missed opportunity to not bring it to PSVR2. Wonder if they will react or even be surprised by the thousands of posts on the PS blog about lack of PSVR2 support!
There just aren’t enough VR enthusiasts for it to be profitable. Developing a VR mode takes extra development time and we know there aren’t many people who own the psvr2 headset. Sony just determined that a vr mode would just cause them to lose money. It’s unfortunate but completely understandable as they are a business not a charity
That they didn’t even mention the elephant in the room was deafening. I tried to post on the PS Blog 2 or 3 times through the app, but I couldn’t find my post in the list. Nearly every comment mentioned VR.
There is a "newer comments" button you have to click to see more. Your comment more than likely went through but it's one of the many pages of 460+ comments now.
Sony have made a massive mistake with Astrobot and will regret it. As a flat screen game, at a premium price, it won't sell and will be reduced to discount within a month of release. As a result, it could sadly mean the end of the franchise.
As I was playing the free flat game on ps5 the whole time I couldn't stop thinking why is this not in vr? Astro Bot is not a proven seller as a flat game. This could spell disaster for Astro Bot
It will sell great! Flatscreen gamers are in love with Astro too (as you can tell from the response to State of Play). They have a connection to him too ever since the release of Astro's Playroom. Now we just need to let Sony know that there's money to be made by releasing it on PSVR2 as well. :D
I hate to say this, but I finally see that sony doesn't give a crap about us, she just doesn't care. Bloodborne, I have no hope anymore. It's a disgrace, have a nice weekend Bryan.
No psvr2 for astrobot. Psvr2 heading in the vita direction. Dont worry your content is great. You'll adopt well to the quest 3 or whatever. Very disappointed. Its the beginning of psvr2s slow death.
I’m not concern about PSVR2. But even if it tanked I wouldn’t switch to Quest or PCVR. No interest - same reason I’m not covering those headsets now. Maybe I’d cover retro games but honestly going back to waiting tables 3 days a week for twice the money I make from RUclips sounds like the best alternative. Luckily I highly doubt it’ll come to that. PSVR2 has a long life ahead. Despite what the doom&gloomers are saying lol
@@WithoutParoleI really hope I'm wrong.i love my psvr2 but I'm fortunate that i enjoy my quest and especially i enjoy the uevr injector. I have access to tons of triple a vr games. @WithoutParole
@@WithoutParoleYou're awesome Bryan and one of the main positive things in regards to PSVR2. When you were on break, your absence was extremely noticeable. Your work, labor and skill is amazing and appreciated. Without your dedication most of us wouldn't have a clue what was going on, cause you're better at cover Sony, than Sony is! I'm one of the ones dumbfounded, disgusted and discouraged right now, but I hope you know none of those negative feelings are meant for you. We love you and appreciate you! I just can't comprehend how Sony coulddrop the ball this bad and not just let us into the game like Gran Torismo did. I'm fine playing with the same controls as the flat version, just let us in there😢
Man Alive, people in the live chat going on about how Astrobot needs a "base" to get people interested in it being in VR need shooting! Harsh? Yeah, perhaps. But given the fact that the PSVR2 is more Expensive than THE CONSOLE ITSELF and most people brought it on the faith that a new Astrobot game would be coming to it really makes me mad! Astrobot was like playing Mario 64 foe the first time....times a million! It was groundbreaking! This is a huge dump Sony has taken on us and I'm quite frankly, furious! The fact you had a guy on the panel THAT HAD NEVER COMPLETED THE ORGINAL speaks volumes! AJ should've been here for this.... #GladIHaveBeers
I agreed with you until you started shitting on jammy... The dude has an awesome channel and covers psvr2 because it's his favorite headset over all the others. If aj could be here he absolutely would've, don't act like they kicked aj out of something...
Don't know the mechanics, but can the camera capture the ps5 controller? If so that could up the sales of cameras. Even if they created a psvr2 compatible ps5 controller which would work I would buy for astrobot.
1) Halting production 2) No new first party exclusives, no Astrobot 3) No controller support 4) No official comfort support 5) No acknowledgment of real problems with lens design 6) Allowing remaining psvr 2 users to migrate to PC Guys, it's over. But it was great while it lasted! There's still a ton of stuff to enjoy, but it's over. There's not going to be Astrobot, forget about GT 6 or any AAA games. Developers will also take note, so forget about new games, why put in the trouble for a headset that is about to end production? Everybody has money and time concerns.
We've still got a great year ahead and Sony's making some decent moves to help sell the headset. Is it over after 2024? It might be. That's completely on Sony.
Miles appearance felt like he was a practically a mute, he seemed reluctant to engage, and didn’t much. 😂 he seemed uncomfortable entering in the conversations between Ryan and Jammy. Looked bored and lost, through the episode. Did not vibe well with Jammy. Thoughts?
In case you haven't been keeping up Myles has a new job and is an extremely hard worker. Anything you're seeing is a result of him being extremely tired but yet still being here and showing up for me and the community. No drama, I promise! :D
@@mofunVR sorry man, i don't overreact like that. yes we want PSVR2 support for Astro but no it's not the end of the world. there are tons of great games still coming and plenty unannounced sony-funded games too
Yeah, its sad with Astrobot, but like 1.7 million vs 56 million installed hardware base makes the decision in these times rather sensible. Studios close left and right and projects get cancelled, and I seriously doubt that Astrobot sells VR2 at its current price point, and its also too expensive to just serve as a bundled incentive for the hardware. VR2 has a rough time convincing people to buy it, much more than its predecessor and Sony cant spend many millions keeping it alive. Hen and egg, I reckon, but its not 2016 anymore where VR was really moving up.
I'll present a possible alternate scenario: the game isn't marketed as a hybrid to maximize flat adopter sales, but is actually compatible with the VR2. Main campaign is identical to flat with one bonus: the hidden level chameleons return and can only be found through VR, which will unlock eight exclusive VR-centric levels (one per world) with gameplay similar to Rescue Mission. It's unlikely to happen, but it's probably the biggest bone they could throw our way. Regardless, the negative precedent set by today's event has pretty much sealed VR2's fate, which is a shame because the two offerings were light years better than the godawful derivative corporate mandated slop that was Concord. Here's hoping Aliens lives up to the hype, and if it does, Bryan better stick it hard to Sony in his review. Please don't let this be another Stride Fates disaster.
Cant stop thinking bot astro bot. Is there a chance they felt : We need to sell this to flat gamers ,leave VR out of the trailer, flat elitist hate VR and later we will tell VR gamers its VR. This could be what they just ist did i was thinking
That Astrobot isn't psvr2 or hybrid at least is a big and bad statement from Sony!
A slap in the face for all psvr2 users 😔
Absolutely

We've still got a great year ahead and Sony's making some decent moves to help sell the headset. Is it over after 2024? It might be. That's completely on Sony.

Very disappointed no VR MODE but it still looks amazing
Miles appearance felt like he was a practically a mute, he seemed reluctant to engage, and didn’t much.
😂 he seemed uncomfortable entering in the conversations between Ryan and Jammy. Looked bored and lost, through the episode. Did not vibe well with Jammy. Thoughts?
In case you haven't been keeping up Myles has a new job and is an extremely hard worker. Anything you're seeing is a result of him being extremely tired but yet still being here and showing up for me and the community. No drama, I promise! :D
is this the official END for PSVR2 ?
Because.... of one game? No. That would be fucking stupid
@@WithoutParole its not THE game...is the sign was set .
@@mofunVR sorry man, i don't overreact like that. yes we want PSVR2 support for Astro but no it's not the end of the world. there are tons of great games still coming and plenty unannounced sony-funded games too
At least they've not ruled out VR for Astrobot, so not completely hopeless🙏
Yeah, its sad with Astrobot, but like 1.7 million vs 56 million installed hardware base makes the decision in these times rather sensible. Studios close left and right and projects get cancelled, and I seriously doubt that Astrobot sells VR2 at its current price point, and its also too expensive to just serve as a bundled incentive for the hardware. VR2 has a rough time convincing people to buy it, much more than its predecessor and Sony cant spend many millions keeping it alive. Hen and egg, I reckon, but its not 2016 anymore where VR was really moving up.
I'll present a possible alternate scenario: the game isn't marketed as a hybrid to maximize flat adopter sales, but is actually compatible with the VR2. Main campaign is identical to flat with one bonus: the hidden level chameleons return and can only be found through VR, which will unlock eight exclusive VR-centric levels (one per world) with gameplay similar to Rescue Mission.
It's unlikely to happen, but it's probably the biggest bone they could throw our way. Regardless, the negative precedent set by today's event has pretty much sealed VR2's fate, which is a shame because the two offerings were light years better than the godawful derivative corporate mandated slop that was Concord.
Here's hoping Aliens lives up to the hype, and if it does, Bryan better stick it hard to Sony in his review. Please don't let this be another Stride Fates disaster.
Cant stop thinking bot astro bot. Is there a chance they felt :
We need to sell this to flat gamers ,leave VR out of the trailer, flat elitist hate VR and later we will tell VR gamers its VR.
This could be what they just ist did i was thinking
interesting, and smart if true. ❤🎉❤🎉
