why is everyone only now realizing how "hard" this game is? since when was crash hard anyways? it's 20 years old, and there are MUCH harder games out there. don't tell me there are people on this board so young that they've never played the original.

Shut the fuck up

Nu-Sup Forums everyone

...

not an argument

Playstation owners today don't play platformers because they're not movies and are "kiddie". So when they get their first good platformer, theg absolutely suck at it.
The audience for the playstation has changed long ago anf whatever is left of the PS1 is a minority.

But it's the dark souls of platformers

Sm64 is easy as fuck you are a retard it's not exclusive to sony they're fucking kids games

then why is Sup Forums screaming that it's hard as shit? it's almost like... modern games are easy as shit... or something...

Sup Forums is mostly joking about it. But I bet every news outlet complaining about it is serious.

That's true. Modern games are designed for retarded people so they can't be hard.

I played and beat crash more or less easily as an 8 y.o, Wtf is wrong with nu gamers?

because they never played when it came out

Dude do you even play modern games ?!

Even on hardest difficulty it's a snooze or grind fest. Infantile totorials. Instant gratification reward loops stacked over eachother etc.

They are basically escapism drugs lite.
You can't demand skill and reflexes from modern """players"""

It is one of the reasons why rpgs suck duck and we have to eat up that low tier garbage from the obsidiots.

>Dude do you even play modern games ?!
no, newest game I've played in years has been BOTW

I played the first Crash at the age of what? 4? I've finished it at least ten times. It's not hard whatsoever, especially not N. Sane trilogy where you can die on Native Fortress, Sunset Vista, Castle Machinery and The High Road. If you want hard Crash, try the Crash Prototype where you get to play a twice as long Sunset Vista plus the obvious Stormy Ascent, that was challenging.

Castlevania, Mega Man, Ninja Gaiden, Contra and the like are examples of good and actually hard video games (still haven't beaten Castlevania III, fuck level 7). Crash on the other hand, not so much.

>I played the first Crash at the age of what? 4?

Don't fucking lie

which level is level 7 in castlevania 3 again?

user not everyone is as sheltered and bad at games as you

>You should totally buy my BS claims at face value cuz I say so

yeah nah, you're a shitter.

I said I played it at the age of four, you don't think I seriously finished it immediately? I probably didn't finish it before the age of six with help of parents.

This one. There are two level 7s though, this is the one that is busting my balls.

Underaged edge boys and streamers that play this shit on a 60'' monitor with more delay than a retard.

I'm not him user but I've been playing hard games since I was younger than four. what is it that you find so hard to believe exactly? that not everyone is as young as you and some of us actually played these games when they were new?

desu you got what you deserve for choosing alucard

I 100% all these hard games as a kid. But now as an adult I absolutely suck at sidescrollers. WTF happened to me?

because you didn't actually 100% them. you just beat them

>desu you got what you deserve for choosing alucard
I always thought that was the easiest path. I should probably give it another go again, it's one of the last Classicvania games with the exception of II that I haven't finished.

No, I 100% them you dumb ass kid. Back then we didn't have downloadable games, so you played the hell out of the games you had

Has it been confirmed if you can die before the first checkpoint and still get the gem when going for the colored gems ins Crash 1?

Or do you have to quit the stage and then start it again?

Memories are malleable. Especially childhood memories.

You're an idiot. I still have my old systems and memory cards you dipshit.

>Prototype
Truly the Dark Souls of all platformers

And people complain about High Road now, psh

It was like that in the originals, so long as you don't activate a checkpoint you don't have to exit to world map. Once you do though.

I've tried pulling off a checkpoint, die and go in reverse destroying the respawned crates and then finishing the level and it did not give me the clear gem.

Dunno if there are special rules with the colored ones.

Its not hard. Its challenging. People expect to beat the game at the first try. I remember as a kid trying over and over the same level. Back then I spent more time playing the same game because I didnt had many. Right now people (casuals) just want to "speedrun" the game, to complete it as fast as possible.
Ive played those games for months when I was a kid, and they just want to complete then in 2 days and move on. Thats my bet on it

HOW. THE. FUCK do you get through the death route on Cold Hard Crash? That line of nitro crates over the ice is vile.

Git gud.

No, seriously it is 100% practice.

Timestamp

It's more harder since it was time trials now

what do you find hard to believe, that that user beat the game as a kid or that he owns the game?

?????

>there are MUCH harder games out there.
Like fucking Crash Bandicoot 3 with its Platinum Relics, to stay on-topic.

>I I really did it Sup Forums I'm better than you.
>Post proof
>You should instantly believe me and any woman who claims rape.
Nu/v/ everyone

imagine being too poor for a 20 year old console

>B-but Nintendo
Every fucking time, his post had absolutely nothing to do with Mario

Alternatively, use Aku Aku

this right here

No. This game is LITERALLY dark souls. It's impossible.

>basing your opinion of the difficulty on the PS1 game

People think Crash is hard now because this remake was made by FUCKING RETARDS. It is hard because they FUCKED the mechanics. They dropped these games into their "ebin 100% accurate engine" except it's not.

>talking about early 3D platformers
>user brings up the best example of an early 3D platformer
>HOW IS THIS RELATED!?!?

>don't tell me there are people over the age of 18 on this site!

Not him but I'm curious. How old are you?

>reading this
>copy already shipped
Fuck

Crash 1 was even harder back then because the controls were worse. And I heard the EU version of the game was even harder than the NA version.

I've played through Crash 1 and it is absolutely correct. You basically have to "edge" almost every single jump in the game. Get a run-up, jump at the very last edge, and hold X for the whole jump. Fail one of these and you may fall down one of the most basic jumps.

What's wrong with Dark Souls being considered difficult?
I've completed all of them.

The original Crash 1 controls are not worse than the N Sane trilogy. I've played them both back-to-back and Crash 1 has controls catered to the level design, which is the most important thing for a platformer. The controls aren't even that bad. N Sane has near enough the same level design but has fucked physics and mismatched jumping. N Sane actually gives Crash 1 a bad rep.

Also I don't know about the EU version being harder but you may be thinking of the time trials in Warped. I'm using the EU version btw.

return it

I haven't played the Crash games but I personally don't trust Sup Forums when it comes to platformers. Everyone likes to shitpost and say Jak 2 is a difficult and shitty game, but it's easy and the best in the trilogy.

21

What if you were to give this game to, say, twenty.... or so intelligent people i mean, what would that do? Let's face it what would it do?

>remakes of 20 year old platfomers get made
>suddenly an outcry of people complaining that it's not modern casualized shit

I have no idea what else you could have possibly expected, OP. It's precisely BECAUSE I remember how hard Crash 1 is that I saw this shit coming a mile away.

Why the hell are you calling others young then? You weren't even old enough to play Crash 1 when it released.

Kill yourself.
Mario wanna be

Its a testament to how casualized the industry is now since normies invaded

I played it when I was at least two user, not that I bought a ps1 at launch. the point is that Sup Forums acts like the crash remake is a brand new thing which I don't understand since to everyone who's played it it should be old news

That is fine. I just find it a little funny you calling people young considering you only just turned old enough to legally buy alcohol.

I always like the first Spyro more anyways.

Because the people who bought this shitty HD collection are kids who never played the original. Big shocker, I know.

>implying he's a murifat

but I am though

>crashmania.net/en/blog/n-sane-trilogy-mishaps/
>Turning around and especially spinning while underwater makes Crash move forward even if you're not moving

That should be the case.

>HD Collection

But it would be better if it was merely the original games in HD with anti aliasing. Unfortunately it's some knockoff mess with fucked physics and hitboxes.

Stormy ascent is harder than the whole plumber franchise upped x3. Fuck off faggot, how can you even speak when knowing you play a shitfest that goes wahooo every 2 seconds. Embarrassing, pull the plug autist.

shut up

Crash was hard? When was this? I beat it no sweat when I was 5.

no u

___HELLO___ __THERE___.
