CRASH BANDICOOT 4 - 9 Minutes of Exclusive NEW Gameplay (No Commentary)

[@Yoosurnaym]

Maybe it'll be fixed before release, but having Cortex be protected by Aku Aku masks doesn't feel right. Edit: All you people who were constantly spamming my inbox with "It's just a demo, it'll be changed before release", well guess what? The final game is out now and it's still like that in the final game.

[@n1cklback477]

As a matter of fact, the reason WHY the designs look the way they do is bc of their respect for the designs and their Looney tunes roots. They could've just not cared and copy and pasted the n sane designs and called it a night.

Mahmoud Nasser but isn’t saying “wow” considered speaking?

[@quicksetup]

Sadly I had to learn this for an exam tomorrow. "Wow" is speaking on a level 0 (of 5) niveau, while "wabbadee" would count as gibberish and is not speaking but the third step in acquiring language as an child, the next step would be fitting in the level 0 Niveau. So basically "wow" is the next evolution in language(speech) to "wabbadee". Now that you know this incredibly valuable knowledge, you can proceed adapting this to crash bandicoots language level analysis.

I feel like Cortex’s gameplay style will somewhat be implemented in future titles, such as the very possible Twinsanity remake. I am rather curious as to how this game may or may not connect to that one or if Twinsanity will be remade with a completely new story from the ground up

[@RainbowCrash56]

Probably a new game inspired by twinsanity

all crash games need to run at 60 fps or above! these games demand quick reflexes, hence requiring low latency. 30fps can make the challenges unnecessarily difficult.

Please tell me that you can turn off that jump tracer that shows you where you will land... Otherwise, can't wait to get my hands on this game!

[@Bigdaddymittens]

I don't find the implementation of it to be elegant, but I do think it's necessary. I noticed that it was weirdly difficult to jump in certain areas of Crash 1-3, due to the awkward camera angles and my shitty depth perception. I feel like the inclusion of the tracer will allow for the developers to craft more interesting levels, because they won't have to compensate for the player as much. I definitely know I'm not alone in my struggles with the original games. What would work better, I think, is a shadow under the player character.

[@radekbartnik3311]

@@Bigdaddymittens Valid comment. I understand that, as I also did struggle in the past in a few place. After hundreds of hours you just know... And this is why I said turn off, not get rid off :) I'm not against helping mechanics, I just wouldn't like the level of difficulty to be lowered permanently by this addition, that's all.

Can't say I'm a fan of how Aku Aku orbits you now as apposed to freely flying behind you. It just makes him look more like an item and less of a character, ya know. That's just my opinion. Everything else looks great though.

[@L00D__]

I guess they did that so you can see him a bit better, since he has a colorful trail behind him when he circles you

[@diegoab5280]

This is the first gameplay I watch for this game and it looks amazing, I don't remember if that shadow detail when you jump was on the trilogy remake but it's actually what everyone needs on a 3D platformer, and I didn't have high expectations on the Cortex gameplay (not that I thought it was gonna be bad tho) but it actually looks pretty unique, which is awesome. Additionally, the idea of combining both gameplays on the same stage and the way they blend together looks very nice. This game is dope
