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??
the 2000s were... weird.
Especially when the previous games in the series were much faster about it too.
Crash is a strong mutant with long arms, have you ever seen a chimpanzee on monkey bars?
That's like if realistic flight simulator devs put random rainbow rings in the sky that boost you 🎉
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.
Hello Stockholm my old friend
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?
But still useful info for future banookas trying to plat the levels!
@@aether6293 aye just like me! Yeah that info helps alot
Avalance (12:54 - 27:06)
Droid Void (28:58 - 48:56) - One of the hardest levels to platinum relic according to the video... if not the hardest.

Coral Canyon (58:14 - 1:12:21) - One of the hardest levels to platinum relic according to the video.
Weathering Heights (1:13:45 - 1:17:28)
Crash and Burn (1:19:17 - 1:22:08)
Gold Rush (1:23:55 - 1:42:07) - One of the hardest levels to platinum relic according to the video.
Medieval Madness (1:43:28 - 2:05:40) - Surprisingly, this wasn't on the list but probably should've.
Crate Balls of Fire (2:07:33 - 2:19:33)
Cortex Vortex (2:21:10 - 2:27:03)
Knight Time (2:47:37 - 2:56:52)

Solar Bowler (3:04:33 - 3:09:47)
Force of Nature (3:11:07 - 3:19:13)
Happy belated birthday, Caddy!
This probably sounds a little mushy, but life's so turbulent and relentless rn that hearing the ps2 boot up 'jingle' and ocean-like sounds while waiting for the stream to begin really helped. I knew I was in for another good VOD watching Caddy play Crash

For the ones that released the same year you should mark the exact release dates.
@@L33PL4Y
If only the place I got the release years from had the full dates as well
@@benthecat4345 Wikipedia has exact release dates
@@L33PL4Y
Then I would have to do it for every single game so it doesn't look off, besides, they're already in release order
I wish I could have been there live for the finale but I'm glad it's archived here for everyone who couldn't make it.
That sure was quite an endeavor. I remember how as a kid, my maximum % was 79% and couldnt get anymore, until I grew older, I decided to pay this game a revisit and got 106%, but Platinums mixed with golds.
Solely because of Eskimo Roll. The platinum relic back then was too difficult for me to obtain and now, im starting to wonder... HOW THE FUCK did I get 29:38 in Weathering Heights?!?!?! I cant seem to beat it lol
Crunch is kind of pathetic in the final boss fight.
He just pushes a couple buttons and then collapses from exhaustion.
I am more athletic than that.
And then after he's shot, he punches Cortex because [ERROR, REASON NOT FOUND].
The implications is either Crunch gets angry at Cortex for letting him get harmed or that the Bazooka shot temporality free him from the brainwash and allows him to fight back against Cortex
@@heroesoftomorrow3488that's interesting. I wonder why none of the other bosses can have their brainwash interrupted like that.. unless crunch is mind controlled in a different way than everyone else in which case why?
@@vario6492 It's probably because the masks posses Crunch to some degree: just like Uka Uka was shown to be able to do it to Cortex in the third game. Because Crunch is, technically speaking, fighting alone by summoning the Elemental Masks instead of harnessing their power, Cortex hold on Crunch is at its weakest.
Tbh I didn’t grow up with any of the ps1 crash games… playing the ps2 ones instead. The one I enjoyed a lot were twoc and tag team… tag team was chaotic and broken and twoc was fun to me xd I understand why most people hate twoc and tag team but to me at least they were amazing
55:38 The Emoji Movie was "how do you do, fellow kids" in film form.
9:13 Now, half of your audience is asleep
10:14 Yeah, time for the funny guy
10:46 It is nice people time XD
12:20 Avalanche.
Also I hope that the previous messages don't get lost this time.
22:40 ???
25:35 Great timing chat
26:00 What happend with the Avalanche there lmao
26:50 I don't know how you did it but you did it!
28:00 Good luck on Droid void because you might be screaming into the void when your done.
28:10 At least you have the great timing of chat.
32:10 Ooch
what's more messed up is in that final fight, Uka Uka is just as much to blame, he could have done so much more and yet he didn't
Someone suggested the Gex games, and I would Love to see Caddy 100% the two 3D ones.
Especially since I'd assume he'd use the EU version, and no offense to Dana Gould, but Leslie Phillips and Danny John Jules are Perfect for the character.
Just paint the Gold Relic Platinum
Thing with those aquatic levels is probably shooting time crates instead of crashing them. Been forever since I played game but that might shave few seconds.
26:26 The sound cue played was pretty fitting for the moment.
It's quite a treat to see this. Also it was obvious Jimmy was gonna stream this.
The Crash inspired game is Psilosybil it's Really great
Uh, yeah. The death/restart count is actually wrong. It's supposed to be 226, not 221.
1:16:38 "Crash 3 was the first game I have ever played, it's one of my favorites"
>implying his immeasurable experience with the franchise
>Immediately spins into a TNT crate
😂😂😂
Some people respect and genuinely appreciate the hard work that Caddy puts into making content, and so they donate.....
Other people pay money to get attention from him and act like they are donating to show appreciation.......The ladder usually pretends to apologize for not being able to give more because they know he will read that and give them that extra attention.......
There is absolutely no need or obligation to donate money, so therefore there is no reason to apologize if you do donate..........I just can't stand selfish and fake people.........
Let's GOOOOO hope you had Cash Banooca Whumpa tastic Birthday Caddy thank you for this wonderful Cash Banooca content for Bandicoot month.
3:27:07 Uka Uka: Idiot! Fool!! NICOMPOOP!!!
You've landed us in the middle of Nowhere!
N. Cortex: Ouch! Oww oh ho!
No, wait, I can explain!! Aaah!!
*I'll get my revenge, Crash Bandicoot!*
*Just you waaait!!!*
It's Store Brand Crash 3.
This is the best stream to watch when you have Covid
wow that was fast. going onto the next crash game, or are you done for this crash month ?
One game per year I believe.
Next year is Crash Bandicoot : Great Adventure
Then Twinsanity the year after
@@chrisjones5411 Didn’t he do Crash 1-3 in one month
@@chrisjones5411 He did Crash 1 - 3 in one year. Next year he did CTR and Bash. He said he might do XS this year if he gets time
@@chrisjones5411 He does however many Games he can fit into June. He even mentioned a couple times that if he can wedge in the next game before the Month ends, he'll finish that one up too, regardless of if it takes him until July to do so.
I shit! I forgot about this channel!!!!!!! And I was looking for something to watch for Hours while I myself play games! I am Definitely going to watch some of the older videos too!
Uka-uka has to pee? No it can not be
We call it Wrath of Cortex... Caddy calls it Wrath of the Time Trials
The floating stopwatches are a greater enemy than any of the actual antagonists😂😂😂
Description lies, stream begins at 10:15.
drip, drip, drip
I wish this game was better then it was if only travelers tales wasn't rushed
Thanks again 4 the awesome, entertaining and fun stream. 😊😂😁👍👌🕹🎮
I personally really like this game and I consider it to be the REAL Crash 4.
if you meant real crash 4, same. It's LITERALLY part of the main non reboot time line so crash 4 is actually like 6 or 7 or something
@@IMakePeopleSaltyApparently It's About Time should've taken place after Mind Over Mutant, Cortex acts the same as he did in the previous games rather than Warped. You could just alter the opening and have N. Tropy scheme against Uka Uka with Cortex and the game would've been the same with the 1996 final island being a cool callback to the first ever game
@@bandicootbrawl9674 agreed though I keep forgetting The titan/mutant era exists bc no one talks about them lol
Postman Pat postman Pat postman Pat and his black and white SPLAT!!!
54:04 Coco's pained noises are annoying in this.
All GBA games _except_ for Titans, released before Twinsanity.
So, XS/Huge adventure > N.Tranced > Nitro Kart/Nitro Kart GBA > Crash Purple/Fusion > Twinsanity > Tag Team Racing >Titans/Titans DS/Titans GBA > Mind over Mutant/Mind over Mutant DS
Well at least we might be able to see twin sanity next year. Since the gba games don’t seem to take too long. I don’t think there’s relics on the former either.
hello Caddy. I'm curious if you saw the walkthrough Crash Banuka 2 in 1 hour and 09 minutes. it would be interesting to see it with your comments
oh great foreign language bots....as if the ones i could understand weren't bad enough
I wish Crash 4 had this game’s soundtrack
2:53:00 sounds similar to flowey's theme from Undertale... really weird lol
I'm calling it now, your next episode is about the world of bad driving games, because of all the driving in the filming.
OK, so clues are Russia, China, "Oooh!" and lots of driving.... Yeah I'll go with you, unless we want to guess it's a Bandicoot CTFrickenR video XD
@@Roadent1241 When I think about games (or any media) along with Russia and China, I think "Censorship".
Maybe that's just because it's pride month.
But then maybe the video topic was chosen For pride month.
@@calemr Bootleg Gameboy games
@@calemr I just thought bootlegs, you get a lot of Ooooh with bootlegs because of Harry Potter hacked games made with Magic Carpet/Pac-Man bases and it's interesting. XD
do a let's play on scott pilgrim vs the world the game
Talking about movies what was your opinion on Detective Pikachu
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.
Not the worst Crash game I've played, I'd take it over It's About Time, and the first two instalments are hard to go back to, but overall a very mediocre experience.
Dude no fucking way is Wrath of Cortex better than It's About Time. IAT sucks to 100% but playing it through normally is way more fun than WoC.
Agreed.
Wrath of Cortex was far more enjoyable to 100% AND to Platinum Relic the whole thing than "Its about time".
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.
Hell, Caddy made me come back to Wrath of Cortex to beat my times, and honestly, it was fun.
@@deoxysandmew2162
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.
@@fictionalmediabully9830 Yeah im aware of that. When I was into doing insane times on time trials (in Crash 3 PAL) on console, I did the same technic in Hang'Em High that got me a sub 30 second time.
It took forever, but I grinded it and got it eventually.
Here as well, I used this trick in Droid Void, but not exactly in its full extent, as I personally dont have time nor being inspired to fully "maximize" the levels.
Also Gold Rush is a fine example too.
I have beaten my personal times that were few years old, so you gotta expect that I wasnt perfecting them at all haha XD
There is one exception however... and what you said, was most likely used, in the level Weathering Heights.
I somehow got 29:38 on it few years back. I couldnt beat it lol.
The last level actually seems funner if U are doing the relic
3:31:40
Well, this didn't age the best
That's putting it mildly.
24:10 3:29:00 1:02:45
1:06:58
Absolutely cringing at these new bot comments
Literally only 3. Try every other video on yt then come back.
@@fritzy8318 I saw more than that before you commented.
Does anyone notice the large amount of bots I seen like 4 of them (you can tell cuz they contain links to scummy websites)
There’s 3. That’s hardly large.
Fritzy but still
Why are you the dickish one I had PTSD seeing you comment last time and I had to remove my last comment because of that
@@haydend.maniac227you got PTSD from a fucking comment 😂
1:25:00 like me
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.
@@IMakePeopleSaltyApparently He mentioned it in the previous episode when talking to Cerys too because she didn't know.
I think he did know that Cortex Mutated the bandicoots, but not that he mind-controlled them
Lol at the people calling like 3 bots a lot.
There were several of them before you commented, just saying.
@@Benjamillion there were 4 at most. And I don’t give a fuck.
You weren't here early enough to see all of them.
🤣🤣🤣
