It’s nice to see N. Tropy getting some proper love in this game. He really needed it after all those years of being underused.

[@harry012197]

mohamed elhedi issa trading card gamer I agree with you, if I had to make a prediction I reckon the last quantum mask that hasn’t been revealed yet will be the main villain alongside Uka Uka after he’s betrayed by cortex as seen in the analysis. There’s gotta be a reason why the last mask hasn’t been revealed yet. If we’re talking about dimensions it’ll look only be fitting for someone that has the ability to control dimensions to be the main villain.

I love the subtle touch, of when Crash and Loni are running from the Spirit Guardian thing, they get to the edge of a cliff, and Crash jumps and grabs hold of Loni, thinking he can fly with him, but they both fall instead.

I’m surprised you didn’t point out that his hover ability looks exactly like what he was doing in his concept art. I remember when it came out I swore he was playable simply because that looked like a gameplay mechanic

[@MazaJesi91]

True.

[@evanwarthen1146]

He mentioned that in another video. He also made that same claim about Dingo being playable based on the art, wayyy back when it was first leaked.

[@zrosix2240]

Evan Warthen yeah, I’m aware. I’m saying I’m surprised he didn’t mention how he was right here. Idk if you knew this, but that was just SPECULATION back then. So it’s kinda irrelevant to my comment

[@bungerroyale112]

Because Cortex is playable, there is a small part of me that says he'll team up with Crash during the final segments. Since Dingodile hung up his life of villainous crimes, Cortex is the only playable villain? I think N. Tropy will be the final boss where Crash and Cortex work together, potentially with some Twinsanity esque levels.

You really put in a lot of time and effort to make this video and for that, you deserve a like 👍

Something I noticed was that in the N. Verted mode footage for the future level at the end there's a holographic ad displaying the name "Chic et choc" (you have to read it backwards because it's mirrored) and it has a Top Hat and Bow so it could be that green skeleton magician character we have been seeing in game of the carnival levels.

I'm probably reaching a bit here but around 12:08 do you think those skulls scattered around (to the far right and in the toxic waste on the barrel or whatever it is) could indicate a death route?

Coco having a tablet in 1998? Is that an alternate universe in 1998 judging by this?

[@ginadelong7156]

Yes actually

[@a_zula1]

I think that costume with Coco in the uniform may be a "what if" costume where Coco would have been a high ranking soldier in Cortex's army. Also, N. Tropy being the main villain is something I've actually wanted for a while especially when you see how disappointed Uka Uka was with Cortex and was pretty much done with him in the beginning of Warped.

[@georgemccartney8906]

2:06, I was gonna point out how the Shark throws a fish bone and then pulls out another object ready to throw, making me think that this enemy has multiple attacks. But then I realised that the object he pulled out was just a fish with skin still on so more likely he has an animation where he skins the fish to the bare bone and then throws it at Crash

after watching this, i thought about what was said. and it got me to thinking: what if that dark purple quantum mask is evil, liberates uka uka from the temporal prison and he (uka uka) punishes cortex by banishing him there. reason i say this is you mentioned cortex being in a more grunt position. maybe this is worth some thought? love your vids

What I think about the wumpas and berries is that I think it’ll be for unlockables e.g unlocking characters for online multiplayer, artwork, possibly the skins/ more skins, oh and a levelling up system for your characters ???? Maybe I don’t know but what I’m saying could make sense

[@MettaFTW]

;w; i got a little upset when i saw Aku Aku from behind... i made him and Uka Uka for me and my friend for a con, but it didnt pan out.. and i worked really hard tying to figure out how they were supposed to go on!! Uka Uka was simply, the bones are just hung from nails, but these feathers??? in the end i just stuck them into the top so they looked wedged between the cracks on the "wood".. then this comes out and?? they're just TAPED ON??? XD i was a little mad but im with you here, it's super cute and amusing lol

[@elchompi12rewind27]

I think Toys for Bob is gonna reboot Corte family, because before they were circus clowns but now scientist. I think they should put a family member with a S or a B that could make Cortex sister/brother and parent of Nina

[@crashtefano]

We'll have to check the normal version of that level in order to find out whether that one is a bandicute or just another kind of random animal.

[@kawaiimika7974]

[@raleighbrecht4033]

The 4th mask reveal has to be worth the hype. I bet what will be next is Tawna reveal in the meantime. As for my thoughts, Crunch can’t just be an Easter egg and would only have letters spelling his name out, the surfboard design is exactly what they design should have been instead of making the worst Crash model I’ve ever seen in my life from the late 2000s, buuut the expressions really capture the feel of the characters with all the rigid smooth details. This will definitely make a kick ass Christmas gift!

[@jeaninemcintosh5080]

I totally agree with you, N Tropy would make the perfect final villain (mainly because his fight was a little lacking in Crash Warped) but I actually think that at some point N Tropy will betray Cortex and Cortex will have to team up with Crash and Coco to stop him, you would probably still play separate levels but no longer would cortex set “traps” for Crash

[@kyotanaka920]

I still say Cortex is the main villain, but the two went out on separate ways in pursuit of their goals. Cortex's being to make sure that the Bandicoot doesn't ruin everything again, this time personally seeing it through. While N. Tropy would be to mess with time. The reason why Cortex is doing grunt work is because they no longer have minions, *at the point of time that the scene happen I mean*. I doubt Cortex is the kind of man to work for someone they despise, otherwise he'd just sabotage their suit. I think it's more of a collaboration effort, N. Tropy is an expert on time itself, while Cortex has unfinished business with the Bandicoot who's bound to throw a wrench into their plans again.

GANADIAN GUY IF YOU CAN SEE IN THE DINGODILE GAMEPLAY ,THERE IS A MASK PROTECTING DINGODILE WHAT DID THAT MEAN ?????????????

[@ECKOIZMUZIK]

They should add different colored skin variations for crash through cheat codes, like Spyro. Giving crash skins like Blue Hyena, Purple Raccoon, Winter Fox, or green chipmunk. Maybe even skins like Carbon Crash, Evil Crash and fake crash. I think this is a great idea so plz like so they can see it!!

[@codyleevest4595]

I have a theory about the fourth mask now hear me out, what if akano grants you the ability to control / possess enemies so you can enter certain rooms, avoid other dangerous obstacles or avade other stronger bad guys to get missing boxes or gems. kinda similar to Oddworld Abes Oddysee. 🤔🤔🤔

I am rewatching this for the third time and I realized the ring is no longer below your character when you’re airborne. This going to be feature you could toggle?

[@gingergreeney]

What's your opinion on Coco being a swap in for Crash. I think it would of been better if she got something different: a unique move, she can enter hidden areas of a level or her own moveset/levels.

[@user-qd1rx9qw9g]

It's interesting that at 10:15 Dingodile has Aku-Aku flying around him. I wonder if this will be fixed or Dingodile will become our ally. At least his diner was destroyed because of the rifts created by N. Tropy and Cortex.

[@lumbagovideosnew5915]
