Sacred Symbols+, Episode 365 | Analyzing the PlayStation Landscape with MysticRyan
🕑 Added 2024-02-03 17:00:15 +0000 UTCPlease welcome prolific YouTuber and PlayStation content creator MysticRyan to Sacred Symbols, perhaps our single most-requested guest in our podcast's history. Today, I (Colin) present to you a conversation with Ryan conducted with intent. After all, Ryan is one of the few people in the PlayStation space as immersed in its history, culture, and ecosystem as me, and such a combination no doubt proves fruitful over our two-plus hour chat. We start things off by talking about current-day PlayStation, how PS5 is doing, the state of the second party, and what the near-future might hold. But the bulk of our discourse actually revolves around Sony's family of studios. We go through each and every one (in alphabetical order!) to opine about its past, its present, and our expectations for what is hopefully a dynamic and bright future for each. If you're a PlayStation nerd like we are, well... this episode is tailor-made for you. Please enjoy.

I couldn't hit the timed attacks properly playing Sea of Stars via remote play. Every time I'd jump from playing it on the tv to playing it on the phone I'd need like an hour to adjust my timing (and I'd still miss more often on the phone). RE4 was similar - it was fine most of the time, combat was ok, but since character movement was a bit laggy and floaty to begin with, I'd often get caught on door frames when trying to walk through them, or get stuck in other pieces of environment because of the extra delay. I juat can't imagine playing every PS5 game on Portal.

Mystic Ryan and Colin Moriarty. The two kings of PlayStation coverage. Would love to see you two get together for a show again.
Alec Davis
Thank you for this episode, Colin. Please consider inviting Ryan back on in the future. Would love to see an in depth platinum chat with him
Benjamin Pope
Great episode! Let's make it happen again boys!
Kyle-San
This is wonderful
Elliott Morgan
Great to hear Ryan finally on
Dante Mills
Mystic has been the only guest that can actually keep up with Colin’s knowledge of PlayStation
Ross Stoddart
Great episode, I never knew of Ryan before but thought he shared some great insight. Will need to check out his YouTube channel.
Mark Pengryn
That’s me. Literally never heard of him. Was very surprised this was the most requested guest. No disrespect, it’s just YouTube is endless.
Zack Fair
Really surprised people haven't heard of Mystic Ryan, he's big in the PlayStation space on YouTube
Zack Fair
Mystic Ryan! What an awesome get!! Love his content. Would love for him to come back now and again
FarmerJimmy
Boner Boys!! This is going down as one of the great SS conversations. I didn't know MysticRyan until this episode and boy howdy, is this guy good. Hoping to hear more from him in the future. Thank you, gentlemen, for the best value in podcasting.

It’s easy to discount Vita’s memory card pricing in retrospect, especially from afar. But as someone who worked at GameStop at the time, in Chicago’s busiest location, we had a huge amount of Vita pre-orders. 90% of customers cancelled their pre-orders, a staggering cancellation number that we had never seen. Almost every one of those customers cited the memory card pricing as their reason to cancel. It was a catastrophic decision on Sony’s part, one I doubt the Vita could have ever recovered from. The word was out.

I think in 10 years the general feeling for last of us 2 will be that it is an incredible masterpiece. It needs time because of the strange circumstances surrounding its release, and also for people to get over “certain things”
Grant MacNamara
Most requested? REALLY???
Nathan Densley
Ryan would be a fun addition. To the occasional show. You guys needing out over PlayStation lore was like some of the old podcasts come back to life.
Adam Barnes
Calm down.
King Blob
We love ryan
Brenden
He should replace Chris
Keith Mc Carthy
Great episode!!
Steven Sanchez
I’ve been hoping for this collab!
Kojima Made Me Gay

Awesome, Colin and Ryan is one hell of a combo
Joel Nehlmark
Yessss! I love Ryan! Awesome that you brought him on the show. Compared to other people on the YouTube landscape Ryan is the more thoughtful one
Frederico Garbino
Oh yes, a two hour ego stroke fest. They talk about nothing that you can’t find on twitter or the PlayStation blog post. You people have such a low barrier of entry when it comes to considering the quality of a person. Colin only cares about money, if he didn’t, he would still be only talking about politics.
Frederico Garbino
Wow, you must think he is a PlayStation expert because Colin called him an expert. These guys literally regurgitate public information that you can read on your own anyway and then call themselves experts.
Frederico Garbino
He’s a guy that doesn’t work out, plays and makes videos about PlayStation. He thinks highly of himself and thinks he’s an expert. He also gives away 10 dollar psn codes on a weekly basis because, as he puts it: “he is trying to pay for your games”. In reality he is just trying to keep his channel relevant.
Frederico Garbino
I rolled my eyes so hard when Colin called Ryan a PlayStation expert.
Noah Friscopp
Your avatar goes way too hard
Matthew Boucher
Awesome…. I been waiting for this since I been a Patreon member , can’t wait to listen 👍🔥
BadHairDayCaveman
Surprised by this guest, no idea who he is. I was hoping to get some insights on this dude but feeling very underwhelmed with this interview.
Aric Anderson
Finally…I’ve been listening to each of your separately for 10+ years. Great to see Ryan on SS+
Reese Redmond
Well got damn, maybe the only guy that knows more about playstation than you do moriarty 😉 loved the show keep it up brother
Dante B
Had no idea who this was but this is one of the best episodes of SS+ in ages and I subscribed to him on YouTube.
Waqar Uddin
This discussion was so satisfying. Both of you really played well off of each other and spoke so deeply about the brand and business. If you could get Ryan on once a quarter for a portfolio review + PS quarterly performance / score or something, I would absolutely love it. Please make this happen again!
Robbie Agnew
Best Episode of Sacred + Ever. Do a whole PS3 retrospective next!
The Gaming Shelf
“Perhaps our single most requested guest” Never heard of him 😂

Gonçalo Ferreira
The problem with Dreams is simple, it’s not a game.

Fresh of breath air to listen Colin talk with somebody who isn’t just sort of kinda into PlayStation and its history.
Adam Barnes
