Spongebob: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated vs Original | Direct Comparison

[@sirbean75]

Honestly so many people say stuff like “oh on switch the controls are so dumb, a is jump and y is attack” I don’t really see why that’s a problem. I think it’s stupid how they hate the game just because of the controls. You don’t need to use attack so like stall your jump or so farther or anything, so I don’t see the logic in that. I think there is the just right amount of difficulty for an E rated game, it’s easy enough for younger kids and difficult enough for experienced gamers. I give it 9.5/ 10, just because I found only a few things a bit confusing but other than that I love it

[@puddleslime2238]

Comparing it to the original, I'd give it like a 7/10, mainly because the Graphics are beautiful yet the gameplay is more lackluster than in the original. On its own I'd give it 8/10, maybe a 9 at most because it's certainly not perfect, just like the original wasn't perfect.

[@benben7448]

They changed a LOT of details in the game that only veterans would pick up on. I got the game last night and a lot of stuff bothers me. The “climbing” walls don’t have Spongebob drawings anymore just arrows, the tartar bot has highlighted indicators to tell where the shots will land and the puddles don’t stay as long as in the original, you don’t take DAMAGE in the water anymore, Patrick’s belly attack has a “cool down” period and he can’t spin as quickly anymore, the NPC noises are gone, SpongeBob’s net attack isn’t as fast, one of the balance rocks in Jellyfish Fields doesn’t allow you to jump off of it as easily to get to the next area, and Patrick’s rock doesn’t have the record player anymore, the original shiny things noise is gone, and there are a million loading screens that take forever. The game is still a great game, but I can’t help myself but keep comparing it to the original.

[@benben7448]

JDF4EVER Nah, the sneak in the original was activated by only slightly moving the left joystick. Now there’s a button you call pull to engage it

[@MisterJohnDoe]

They did? Damn, I always loved how it was like various sound effects used in the game.

[@myself8354]

One thing I missed from the original was the extensive backgrounds in the levels. For example when you are inside Sandy's tree dome you can clearly see the outside world through the glass but in the remaster it's just blue fog now. I also miss the seamless teleport with the boxes where you jump in and warp to the other one. In the remaster you go through a brief loading screen instead. None of these things break the game at all. Just little details from the original that I noticed were gone.

It really reimagined the game while retaining many of the aspects of the original. I just got the remake and I kept smiling during my first playthrough, can't wait to beat this game as I didn't have the chance to beat it back then.

In all fairness to the Mr. Krabs voice-actor, I heard it's a union thing. That they wouldn't be allowed to redo one character's lines unless they redid _all_ of them - a pricey thing to do for only a $30 game, especially when certain VAs (such as Barnacle Boy's) are now sadly, unavailable.

This is the best remaster I have ever seen.

[@wrgblackheart]

Imagine if they made a remake of the SpongeBob movie game from 2004 with the same graphics as Battle for bikini bottom rehydrated just like THQ made the same graphics in the original battle for bikini bottom appear in the SpongeBob movie game

[@TheRagingGamerChannel]

They should remaster the spongebob party game: lights camera pants

[@donclarity]

Easily

[@novatare]

To me, this remake is nothing short of amazing. I've been playing this game almost since it came out, and I look at this remake and it feels like the game is brand new. I prefer the newer design, as I feel it fits Spongebob more as a character. The sound design is better to me as well, because the original sounds are loud and it can be a bit grating during a really long playthrough. I'm hella gonna get this if I ever have the money for it.

Did you ever have the money for it

[@novatare]

​@@spike5499 I do now, but I'm still trying to decide between this, the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, and the new Klonoa that's set to come out soon. The newest game that I both own and have played before (i.e. Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer) came out in like 2015, so there are a lot of much newer games that I still have yet to try.

[@thombogd1022]

You know what hasn't improved... The gameplay, or more like the way the gamplay feels. The original version had such a nice flow and also was significantly harder in some places but it still felt much more satisfying. The best example would be Sandy's rope swing. I don't know if it's a bug that only happens to me but honestly Sandy's rope swing is awful in rehydrated.

[@Groovycrisis]

i’m so happy they remade this game. it was my childhood and this new version feels like what minecraft does when you play with a new texture pack! i love the colors and added details

[@ImpassiveCanine]

@@dtwins613 "Better" is more of a subjective term. Sure it's pretty, and looks smooth, but that doesn't discredit the charms of the original. Do all retro games look, "bad" just because it's an outdated style? It all comes down to personal taste.

[@dtwins613]

Vay Kek okay but tell me what makes it look better in your pov because I don’t see how you can think the original looks better isn’t it the same game but smoother

[@frozone-yeah]

A couple of things that I actually said in the forum for bug fixes and features add ons, the one that SHiFT sent out to people on his Twitter that I would like to see in my opinion 2 things improved. 1. Full Destruction animations: while there are a lot of objects that when smashed they break apart into pieces, like the robots, things like, the Duplicatotrons, the floor in the lighthouse arena in Downtown, and especially the Tikis do not have any sort of or very minimal animation that signifies that they have been smashed or destroyed. I mean the original had this feature in the game why can’t a chaos physics engine implement this feature in Rehydrated. 2. Full Duplicatotron animations: as I compare the two I notice that the machine lacks two things. The first is the lights right above the word do not function as they do in the original, they are just off. And second there is a lack of smoke puffing out the funnel of the machine when running and when spitting out robots, but the biggest missing thing of all is a lack of animation when the robots actually spawn in. If you take a look at the sound comparison part and go to the robot section 10:37. In the original there was a visual cue/effect that told the player that the robot is spawning in and will attack you right afterwards. In Rehydrated, there is no visual cue/effect. The capsule or tin can as it looks like now just land on the ground and the robot just pops in. These are obviously not of major importance, but they are important enough to further enhance the game and give it that quality to life improvement that it needs along with other imporvments that other people suggest, so it can truly hold a candle to its predecessor. My overall thoughts is that this is a masterpiece of a game, and truly has great potential to become something great and long lasting once they patch up all the kinks and tweak and polish the the bugs, glitches, and missing features. Let it be said however that this game to me is still worth the money to relive my childhood and I will be purchasing the game eventually. Hope everyone that already has the game is having a blast reliving your childhoods or trying it for the first time.

[@waifoo4300]

I would say it’s “oversaturated”- it looks like someone turned up saturation to 90% on a normal game

[@funnyman8161]

That is literally oversaturated

[@TJY_RISE_UP]

So

[@Dogmasmells]

I think the Rehydrated version is okay overall, but I liked the atmosphere in the original better and I despise how they replaced the pictures with memes

[@samuelking1394]

I think you did a really good job going over all the graphics and things like that but I feel like you should have went over some game play differences like how sandy plays a lot different, the fact that Patrick now has a butt slam along with the original belly flop, things like that was something I was expecting when I clicked on this video. This is the first video I've seen of yours so maybe that's how you do it around here and maybe you're even planning a second video on game play differences. Also one other small thing, I don't think a new game mode should be considered an issue (don't know if you meant it that way but thats what you seemed to put it under) I find it nice that they added something new that doesn't change the original campaign in any way, even though I've only played it once and it doesn't really add too much lol. Anyways I really enjoy the remaster, I honestly still find it crazy that this is a thing and you don't see me making a video on the differences so I have to give you that. Sorry for this really long comment lol, you did a good job on the video and I just had a couple minor things I wanted to say, anyways have a good day!!!

[@MrGGMan19]

The remaster is great, but there is some animation and sound designs I nitpick at alot when im playing it. I have it on ps4, and it seems there's alot of unnecessary loading times that the original never had. And the sounds for collecting shiny objects just seems...off. And the bungee jumping feels not right at all. Other than that, this game is an amazing looking remaster of one of my childhood games

[@AlmightyPolarBear]

It is a remake, and I agree on the loading times. Also the constant texture popping on PS4.

[@MrGGMan19]

@@AlmightyPolarBear especially the teleporting boxes. The animation isn't even there anymore and when you jump in them, the game loads infront of you which looks very bad
