>>714685717the thing that made crash distinct from collectathons at the time was its commitment to traditional 2d platforming-esque level design but in 3 dimensions. it did this while also having the collectathon trash that was desired by people at the time in missable crates, gems, relics.
this mod sounds like that it pushes the game more in the direction of collectathon trash which is not why i find crash fun, it's not what i'm there for.
if you want a proper crash successor there's always psilosybil. one of the best 3d platformers ever.
