    as a game dev (working on my first large project), realism should never come before gameplay _unless_ the entire game is structured like that. slow monkey bars may be more real-feeling, but in an otherwise fast platformer, they're way too jarring.

      Why would they even go for realism In a game where a mutated orange bandicoot tries to stop a yellow skinned doctor who has made a jacked kuala with tiny legs??

    I really liked the original story for this game: instead of the Elementals, it had Cortex turning five planets into global-scale experiments where he greatly changed one variable, like magnified sun rays for a fire world or flooding for a water world. Every planet had a Cortex research station controlling the conditions (which we still see in WoC as the fifth levels of each warp room). It's such an interesting evil scientist-style plot which I hope we see more of in future games.

    By the way, Crash Bandicoot 4 (2020) has done things to me; after getting 106%, I started feeling the urge to binge-rewatch your video about getting platinum relics in every Crash game and revisit older Crash games as a completionist and platinum relics collector.
    I've got all the platinum relics in the N. Sane Trilogy and in TWOC by the beginning of June and now I'm almost done with Crash Nitro Kart.
    Which has possibly some of the worst platinum relics I've seen in a Crash game so far.

    Personally, I like to think Crunch was actually created by Brio, who may have been holding on to the Orange Gem after Crash 1. Cortex could've stolen him before he was finished, hence the metal hand and Crunch needing the aid of Elementals, despite Cortex telling him how he was his "greatest creation" and all that.
    I feel a big problem that TWOC has is aside from being clunky, is that it just doesn't have enough to distinguish itself from the earlier games. The cutscenes are the hologram from Crash 2 and the pre-level dialogue from Warped, when it would've been much more interesting if there were cutscenes where Crunch bounced off of the personalities of the Elementals, he gets frustrated, he goes overboard, leading to him breaking the Cortex Vortex, and he's freed to join the other Bandicoots.
    Going forward, Crunch had potential to be a good character, but he eventually just became a Mr T parody, and even in the beat 'em ups games, where playing as him actually could've been fun, he's barely used. Maybe if he gets used in a later game or the rumored TV show, they can actually DO something with him.

    Soooooooo, I know this is kinda late but um.... You know the platinum relic in Gold Rush where you need to use I-Frames from getting hit to glitch run on the bottomless pits?
    That can be done on any level. Droid Void included. I did it. I tested it a few times. It's not ideal, but it can save you a few tiny seconds if done right. But you already finished the game so er.... Bit pointless mentioning it, eh?

    The Wrath Of Cortex was rushed to market. It was made in only a year, which is the same amount as Crash 2 & 3, but not only was it being made on new hardware, but Traveller's Tales were working on multiple projects, so there wasn't enough time or dedication to make the game as polished and well made as it could be.

      Levels dont overstay their welcome, no triple spin bullshit, just one type of sense of speed and no pointless padding, on top of artificial difficulty.
      Its about time is only good as a casual playthrough to experience the story which would take you around few hours. Not worth it.

      Here's something Caddy doesn't know. When getting the Platinum Relic in Droid Void, you don't need to halt your momentum to shoot the nitro crates to get rid of them and the enemies. It's risky to jump around without taking the hit, but it is possible. Best yet, and this applies to all of the levels with the monkey bars, you can use the Death Tornado Spin to reach some of the platforms earlier than usual; allowing you to cut down on the slow climbing. Once I knew this stuff, beating these levels and getting the Platinum Relics became a much easier experience. Droid Void only took me a few tries, it was a cakewalk.

    3:25:00 it bothers me that caddy doesn’t seem to know that cortex mutated AND mind controlled the bandicoots and his other soldiers from regular animals. That was the point of those scenes at the beginning of crash 1. I know he says he has a shit memory, but if he does then he shouldn’t talk like he actually remembers what’s going on in the story.

      He did remember. He mentioned it on the first episode that "crash is just a failed copy of crunch" when talking with someone. I think he even mentions that the feral animals are used.

      I think he did know that Cortex Mutated the bandicoots, but not that he mind-controlled them
