Why were these remakes so divisive among old fans?

>>712443065 (OP)
They felt the need to make Crash and Spyro take 5 minutes of your time at every load screen. Odd artistic choice.

Crash remake was fine other than a few gameplay issues they fixed quickly with a patch
Spyro remakes play fine but are just fucking ugly and changed designs from the original games for no real reason

Furries, anon.

The answer to all of life’s problems are furries.

>30fps on consoles
Though the Crash remakes were great for the most part, the Spyro remakes were the ones with real problems
>Uglfied a lot of characters
>Changed the VA for the worse
>Terrible framerates

The developers failed to realize there's more to a remake than "HEY IT LOOKS PRETTIER AND MORE DETAILED". There was actual mechanisms behind the originals. Pic related for Spyro.

For Crash: https://all-things-andy-gavin.com/2011/02/02/making-crash-bandicoot-part-1/

Because sonypoors couldn't pirate them like when they were 8 playing burned discs on the PS1.

>>712443065 (OP)
I thought these were fine and I liked how detailed and expressive the animations were
The bigger issue was CTR being locked to consoles and 30fps, it feels awful to play and look at especially when fucking MK8 was 60

>>712443065 (OP)
The best I can say about the Crash remakes is that they could have been worse.

The normalized geometry/physics cause some problems but are not a total deal-breaker, the art style is absolutely worse than the original, but not offensive to the eyes. The soundtrack; some tracks were raped like the Makin' Waves, some sound great like Rock It, most are just acceptable.

Why do you keep making this thread, OP? Fuck off spambot

Crash 5 for his 30th anniversary next year, right?

...Right?

>>712444376
you'll get a tweet with some stock art placed around a cake and you'll like it

>>712444459
More than Banjo got for his 25th

Because they were remakes people were anticipating remasters.

Cynder owes me sex.

Remakes:

>Crash 1
Honestly, pretty damn great. I still prefer the original

>Crash 2
Good, but something feels off about the slide jump. Original is better.

>Crash 3
They completely FUCKED the jetski AND the motorcycle. Not even worth considering

>Spyro 1
Good if you're okay with the artstyle, but I prefer the original. Has performance issues and glitches that persist through all three games.

>Spyro 2
Similar to Crash 2, it's okay but it feels off.

>Spyro 3
Honestly, I didn't even play this one. I was starting to feel bummed out by the end of Spyro 2 and I just wanted to stop and go back to the originals.

>>712443065 (OP)
I'm an old fan and I liked both. Maybe crash a little less because it feels like his movement was changed more.

>>712443310
Crash music was absolutely fucking butchered and ruined beyond redemption.
The levels were also highly hit or miss, some looked horrible.

Seriously just listen to this shit

I liked the spyro remake, but the art direction was kind of shit and the censored so many things that were just off. like they censored one of the npcs using a cattle prod on another npc's ass. Like it was like censoring ed ed and eddy, it was very bizarre

Crash remakes had the benefit of being worked on by previous developers with a history of working on the IP. All Toys for Bob did was make that ugly Skylanders shit. It makes a world of difference. You can tell where one party tried and the other was detached from what the Spyro games should look and play like.

>>712444291
>The bigger issue was CTR being locked to consoles
I'm still mad

>>712443310
>Crash remake was fine other than a few gameplay issues they fixed quickly with a patch
They did not fix shit. They doubled down on it and said nothing was wrong. Maybe you're thinking of the CTR remake, which did have some patches to adjust the physics.

>>712446905
They censored breast sizes and visible panties on some characters too. Anything remotely fun and harmless.

crash: didnt bother even porting mechanics over right so the collision boxes are fucked
spyro: they let a gay bara furry redesign the entire cast for the express purpose of having more porn

>>712448728
Murica is now in a constant moral panic about grooming children through books. No way anyone is gonna try to show them video game pantsu or cleavage. Might get deported for that.

The Crash remakes look good but they slightly changed his movement mechanics so that I still prefer to play the originals. If you are young and play the remakes as your first Crash experience it's probably fine though. But weirdly I really like Crash 4's mechanics, which one would assume would be the same. I'm not totally sure if that's just a mental thing or if Crash 4 just plays better than the remakes.

The Spyro remakes are a large downgrade in visual style but in contrast to Crash I think they actually improve the actual gameplay mechanics (mostly) to the point where I prefer them to the originals. All of the originals lack right analog stick camera movement which makes them a lot less fun for me. The one exception is Spyro 3 which has a center camera button which makes it manageable. But overall despite losing a lot of that unique dreamlike atmosphere of the originals the remakes are fun enough to play that it's my go to "I just want to turn off my brain and run around and jump" game.

>>712448728
>and visible panties on some characters too
what characters had visible panties?

>>712448891
what is it like being a third worlder?

I didn't play the originals before the NST. I got stuck on the biker levels in NST, but when I played the original I cleared it first try. Is it harder in NST?

>>712443065 (OP)
Fans of old children's game franchises tend to be incredibly autistic.

>>712443065 (OP)
remakes aren't for the old fans of the game, they're to introduce a new generation to the games they missed with updates graphics they are familiar with.

>>712451078
This, I think it's because they enjoyed them as the pinnacle of their life before daddy or uncle touched their penis inappropriately and their mom started to beat them. Remember, this site is largely comprised of men with major mommy and daddy issues. So be kind to them, it's all they have in life: childhood memories before the trauma.

>>712450942
Sadly I am murican but joining the third world recently has been sad

>>712443065 (OP)
Crash NST was great although not as good in some aspects, and something about Crash 3 just doesn't feel as cool as it does on ps1, still good. CTRNF is fucking phenomenal thoughever.
I had fun with the spyro remakes playing it the first time when it came out, but in hindsight it was a pretty shit remake and TfB are a pretty ass studio.

>>712451345
oh, you are a commie faggot who lives in a city.

>>712451961
No I'm a conservative in a suburb. I just disagree with the notion of raising a generation of cucked and coddled children who will end up afraid of the world which is in vogue among the burgers in power right now

>>712450848

>>712453047
you are obviously a third world yuro who lives in some cuck city
>>712453118
hot. didn't they change or censor something else in that level? Like change a woman to a guy or something retarded?

>>712453438
Maybe you're thinking of Zephyr. In the OG Juliet had a very exagerated male voice. But they changed it to a generic female one in the remake.

>>712453438
In Zephyr the bird Juliet was a male. Theres two jokes here, one is the obvious gag of men playing women in Shakespeares plays. The other is male birds often appearing more colorful and dynamic than the females. The retards in charge of the remake tossed that out to just make it a generic girl bird.

>>712453738
>>712453980
I thought they changed one of the female fauns to a male at some point in a cutscene

>>712453438
You're wrong and schizo. But getting back on topic, check out my games. Don't ask about Crash's jewel case.

The art team were all Indians
Indians have no souls and therefore cannot make art. Toys for Bob, more like Toys for bobs and vagene.

>>712443310
>Spyro remakes play fine
Except for the fact that they added a longer recovery on your charge, which prevents you from immediately using your flame breath, making a lot of chases longer than they need to be.

>>712454851
that's not indian, it's furry. indians make weird trippy shit.

>>712454701
you are gay and retarded. the censorship in the spyro remakes is on topic and is one of the reasons people prefer the originals, along with the art direction/graphics. the remakes have better gameplay

>>712455496
My point is if you want to bitch about censorship you should actually understand the driving force behind that censorship. It's not the people you seem to be blaming.

>>712455121

>>712456028
they may literally be indians but the art style is clearly furry

>>712455736
I wouldn't call yuros people

>>712456334
>Euro
>Collection of NTSC-U games
You're stupid. Euros can't play those.

>The answer to all of life’s problems are furries.
Nah, the furfag concept artists were the ones actually doing a good job. The 3D Models and lighting looked like shit because they were outsourced to india.

>>712455121
You can cope rajesh, but if there's anything about any professional level furries it's how much of a stickler for quality they are.
Had it not been Toys For Bob, and them being completely okay with outsourcing this shit, nearly none of the models would have passed a basic quality check.

>>712456453
>yuros have no vidya
keep seething yuro cuck. you are the reason for the censorship

>>712455121
Jeets are literally incapable of beauty, talent, grace and dignity like most furfags. On a personal level, spiritual level and when it comes to artistic expression.

>>712456852
No you idiot they have different TVs that can't display American games. They ran at 50hz rather than 60.

BEHEAD TOYS FOR BOB
ALL TFB EMPLOYEES WILL BURN IN HELL FOR THEIR DESECRATION

>>712456846
nah furries are disgusting and the concept art is bad. give those same indians some decent art to translate to 3d and the game would look a lot better.

>>712456974
sure thing yurocuck. you are the reason the games were censored

>>712457329
You can keep seething impotently, but it's not going to do anything about furry quality standards, of which everyone here is aware of.

>>712457609
seething? no i'm >>712450191
i like the game. would be better without the furfaggotry though.

I have never played a game with as much contempt for the player as crash 4
franchise should stay dead, modern bloated dev teams lack the vision to make anything compelling

>>712443065 (OP)
>Crash remake
changing Crash's position hitbox to a cylinder instead of a dot like the originals, so that you would gravitate towards a cliff if your position hitbox wasn't completely on ground footing
>Spyro remake
The revised artstyle direction and having 1/3 of the games on physical versions on most platforms

>>712443065 (OP)
Spyro originally had a style that the remake took a lot of liberties not to recreate. Crash was always just bad.

>>712457912
they went overboard on hiding boxes to give it more replay value but aside from that i enjoyed crash 4

>>712443310
Crash still has wonky collision models sometimes though it's not as bad as it was before
Spyro has some levels that are impossible to beat at 60 FPS
They're not the worst thing ever but it's still fucking annoying

>>712458657
>Spyro has some levels that are impossible to beat at 60 FPS
i think that's only true for alpine ridge as of the current patch

>>712457609
Furry “quality standards” are just the same five faces and Disney-proportioned bodies with neon colors thrown at a wall. It’s not a flex. If the bar is “doesn’t look like mobile asset store trash,” congrats I guess, but that’s not exactly a high artistic standard. The concept art was stylized filler, not the second coming of Michelangelo.

>>712461506
Again the only thing you're achieving here rajesh is making your self look dumber and angrier.
You're never going to sell the idea that a furry as a professional artist doesn't have really fucking high standards.

>>712443065 (OP)
Didn't play the Spyro remake but for NST
>using crash 3 physics for all games which immensely fucks with the level design

>>712443065 (OP)
Radical departures from original artstyles are going to make people mad. But doubly so when you make things intentionally ugly.

>>712461814
Funniest part is, Nicholas Kole didn't even want to make them look like that. That was a management choice.

>>712462621
>Nicholas Kole
He's a fag regardless

>>712462690
I don't care about him as a person, I care about his work as a concept artist, which is largely good.

By Indians.

>>712463000
You are explicitly stating you are doing worse than the retards who fuck fatsos in dog suits.
I know you're too stupid to realize you're saying this, but that IS what you're saying.

>>712458657
>Spyro has some levels that are impossible to beat at 60 FPS
playing the original RE4HD on steam

>>712461617
they made all the spyro games play more like spyro 3, but there wasn't really that big of a difference between the gameplay in the different spyro games unless you were an autistic tranny speed runner. they made a bunch of the minigames less gay

>>712462971
literally nothing, OP is just having his hourly autism meltdown

>>712462857
the sheer amount of detail in the original is still amazing to this day. the fact that in the background (or sideground in this case) is packed with fully 3d modelled stuff blew everything else out of the water.
>>712463450
nah they're gross

>>712462621
Activision and Toys4bob are real pieces of shit.
