/vr/ - Retro Games

Because it filtered you. Thread hidden.

I agree with all your points, but I think the game is charming and that's what props it up in people's eyes. I beat it last year and hated most of the game, but when I beat it and looked back on the game I enjoyed my time.
2 immediately felt like they improved the gameplay and controls, but they removed the adventure aspect by having you teleport to places and I lost interest in it immediately.

Another tendie filtered, today was a good day.

>>10763529
My filter removes bad games.

Crash 1 is in essence an isometric platformer with fancy visuals. Everything is aligned to a grid. The sequels later go in a direction of free movement.

>>10763529
Absolutely Based.

>>10763518
A lot of games before consoles like the PS2 were sloppily designed and total bullshit, but they were all like that and the obnoxious difficulty was the standard.
All it really took for a game to be good was having a fun style and passing the bar of being playable, it beats playing a shitty licensed game about Skittles or some shit that doesn't even let you beat the game.

There is not a single level in Crash Bandicoot that could be described as "isometric".

>>10763518
>shit physics
>shit hitboxes
Did you play the remake (the N. Sane tirlogy version?) Because that versions physics and hitboxes are busted. I'll grant you that in the original Crash controls like shit but it's consistently shit. The physics and hitboxes are FINE
>shit save system
Okay so you were playing the original then? Becuase that's one of the few things the remake fixed (in addition to fucking a bunch more stuff up)
>shit gem system that requires countless backtracking
I'll give you that. They fixed it in the sequels tho

>>10763692
Rotating pillars in the temples where you have to align yourself perfectly to not fall into a bottomless pit. It feels very rigid.

>>10763712
That's not what isometric means, dingbat

The lack of depth perception makes it impossible to enjoy. I don't know how I did it as a kid. Is there any way to play in stereoscopic 3D?

>>10763687
What a dumb post.

>>10764160
That's what the shadow is for retard. RETARD.

>>10763518
I just wish Crash 1 has its input lag fixed. Everything is very snappy and instant in Crash 2, but Crash 1 there is a delay from pushing the d-pad to Crash moving.

>shit OP

>>10764214
>can't refute the points

It's not desu. crash 2 is the regarded one.

>>10763518
>Why is this game highly regarded again?

Hog ride levels saved the entire game

Tawna's fat tits

>>10763687
>A lot of games before consoles like the PS2 were sloppily designed and total bullshit,
lmao how do you fags end up here in the first place?

>>10764215
what other 3D platformer were you gonna play back then? fucking croc?
crash was pushing the envelope in a big way
anyone who doesnt understand how unbelievably impressive this game was for an early PS title just wasnt there

>>shit physics
>>shit hitboxes
Skill issue. There's literally nothing wrong with them. I can fly through this game with sheer ease.

>>shit save system
You know how people say old games were meant to be replayed? Yeah, the exact same thing applies here. Also, not being able to save constantly is a difficulty balance. Also, also, if it bothers you so much, just you save states like the pussy you are.

>>shit gem system that requires countless backtracking
There are secret areas that you can revisit in a few levels. This is not a problem with the game.

>Skill issue. There's literally nothing wrong with them. I can fly through this game with sheer ease.

Just because something can be accounted for and overcome doesn't mean it's well designed in the first place

>physics
>PSX game

>>10764376

>>10763518
i hate this game. It's boring after a few seconds

>>10764795
That's exactly what that means; If you can't acclimate to new challenges because it plays differently than you expect then you're not well adjusted and I suggest picking up birdwatching as a hobby instead

>>10763518
When I played the remakes I started playing them thinking they would be inferior because they were made before Mario 64.
I didn't enjoy it at first. Physics and hitboxes are really fucked up on remake. Only played like an hour for 3 days.
Something clicked at fourth day. I became extremely good and beat it that night. Not just the first game I continued to beating second and third game as well. I didn't sleep for whole night.

What I'm trying to say is OP is faggot once again.

>>10763518
it isnt

>>10764394
Only one of the issues raised is related to it's status as a 3D platformer and it's an issue that other 3D platformers of the time didn't have (Mario 64, Jumping Flash, Spyro, Banjo, and yes even Croc). Keep coping.

>>10763518
Yawn.

>>10764394
I have a friend whose favorite game ever is Croc. He's pretty cool

>>10765136
No it doesn't, you dumb nigger. Imagine if I made an FPS game where your bullets come out of the gun at a 45 degree angle, directed towards the bottom right of the screen. Sure, you could account for that, and certain players would be better than others at it, but that doesn't make it a good mechanic.

>>10765284
>issues raised
heres the issue
youre getting filtered by a game we all beat when we were 10

>>10765448
Congratulations on beating it buddy, but it's still a poorly made game

>>10765456
lol ok dude
it was completely fucking groundbreaking in gfx audio and presentation and sold 6 mill copies
i guess that was just a fluke tho
if only youd been born yet, then you couldve warned us and spared us all the misery of playing and beating this "broken game"

>>10765489
>it was completely fucking groundbreaking in gfx audio and presentation
Immaterial.
>sold 6 mill copies
Selling well = Good game?

>>10763710
Whole Hog is LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE in the remake

>>10765421
Imagine if there was a game where your projectiles are fired by a club and the only way to shoot accurately is by practicing the mechanics. You shouldn't have to imagine very hard, it's called golf.

>>10763518
It was higher resolution than most games and had a lot of triangles on screen. Naughty Dog were always grafixfags.

>>10765674
ON THA GWEEEEEN

>>10763518
Because Sony fans needed to feel like they had something comparable to Mario.

>>10765674
Not an argument

>>10765665
>LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE
Wrong.

>>10765736
>golf is badly designed because I can't get used to the mechanics
Same logic

>>10763518
Crash 1? People do not regard it anywhere near as highly as the sequels.

>>10766525
2 is honestly the worst game in the (Naughty Dog made) series. It's way too based around finding about hidden crap, despite not being an exploration focused game, and is only challenging when specific gems have unique gimmicks to them, and is otherwise piss easy. It's honestly a downgrade from 1 and mostly justified for setting the groundwork for the far better 3.

>>10766525
Crash 2 is literally the only mainline Crash game that's rated higher than 1.

>>10765737
I meant Whole Hog

>>10766640
You just blow in from stupid town?

>>10766560
>2 is honestly the worst game in the (Naughty Dog made) series
Thank you.
It's grindy and tedious to play.
3 has too many gimmick levels, but the platforming levels that are there are much more enjoyable

>>10766698
>3 has too many gimmick levels

I disagree, only the plane and swimming levels were actually bad, bike, tiger and jetski were all great.

>>10766525
I love this game with it's smooth, satisfying and speedy movement until it decides to goatse my ass by dropping my inputs. Been playing it a good bit lately.

>>10766560
bait or just retarded

>>10766750
So?

>>10766753
Has to be bait, 2 is a masterpiece. Control is super tight, levels are challenging but rewarding, graphics and audio are top notch. For me Crash 2 is far more fun than SM64. I like being able to just stick it on and blast out a few levels, I always liked games that were about perfecting a perfect run and dialing aa level in, like Ninja Gaiden (NES), Tony Hawks 1,2+3 etc and Crash 2 gives that feel but in it's own unique way.

>>10766745
I'm not saying they were bad, just too many.
I used to always play all the platforming levels first in each warp room and then begrudgingly do the others

>>10766750
Yes, you will however address me as samestraight, this isn't /v/, where you belong.

>>10765523
>Selling well = Good game?
Yeah usually

>>10767028
Then why even enter a discussion about flawed game design? Just say "it sold copies so you're wrong" or "it didn't sell copies so you're right" and then take your midwittery elsewhere.

>>10766750
Mindbroken

crash bandicoot is quintessential third world zoomer slop. see they didn't have sega saturn or n64 (because they were poor) so made do with shit like crash bandicoot and didn't know any better. they are still just as clueless and have no taste in vidya.

SURE

>>10763710
everyone bitches about the physics on the remake but I was still able to get a 100% clear without too much effort. easier than the original if anything because you didn’t need to not die on stages to get a gem so no constant returning to map.

>>10765489

>>10763518
It's one of the better 3D platformers ever made and those who argue otherwise are often N64 fanboys who never got past the 90's console war mindset to discuss video games in good faith. If you don't like it then that's fine, you can dislike all acclaimed titles you want, that doesn't make them not good or odd that they're well regarded, most people still see why they're so good really.

It's just you, not the video game.

Same reason all the other 3d platforming garbage from the mid-90s is: viral marketing to new gamers who are idiots

>>10765736
You sure got quiet.

its what DK64 shouldve been

>>10766560
Crash 2 is one of the most fun games I've played. Definitely my favorite out of the three.

>>10763591
you want to see free movement? try eating my ass
