Prince of Persia 3D (PC) - 14 - Floating Ruins

[@STKeTcH]

that horseman you ride on at the end of the video reminds me of that insane sequence in PoP2 where you had to jump on a horse statue

[@samflood5631]

Difference is that that winged horse guy with a human head called a Buraq, which is based off of ancient Babylonian folklore.

I can't climb the platform at 2:08, no matter what I try.

[@elbryan42]

Yeah, I think Red Orb was in trouble at the time, before they were bought by Mattel Interactive. If this game were finished properly it would've been and excellent game everyone could enjoy, not just the hardcore POP3D fans. At least they fixed the combat on the Dreamcast version.

[@elbryan42]

I honestly don't remember ever encountering any glitches on this level.

[@Alicito2010]

How many versions about this level?? Mine is diferent, the say is Blue and diferents duty To do

[@amerigoves5099]

I stuck Here for two months i remember the Plateau doesnt went up

[@Palamedes2009]

Once Great Castle

[@elbryan42]

LOL, yeah. Not as bad as a feeling of deja vu I got playing Warrior Within, when you started on a deserted island. I actually said out loud, "you've gotta be f**king kidding".

[@POLE7645]

Another temple in the mountains that you reach with a flying creature. Who had a Prince of Persia 2 flashback at this moment?

[@nonsense909]

Me ;)

[@dspprince]

That's not the only rehash from POP 1 & 2. Begin the game being thrown in a dungeon before escaping and finding a sword and killing a guard before the 1st level ends, then going through the palace to find the princess, escaping the palace and its guards through rooftop jumping before reaching the city streets before reaching the docks before jumping and stowaway on a departing ship (dirigible in this case).

[@jetfire711]

Just wondering man, how many glitches did you come across in this level? I found a ridiculous amount of them in this level.. :L took me ages to complete it

I played the Dreamcast version I am European and it was only released in the USA and Israel. I was able to play the Dreamcast US version and there are some interesting differences. The save points are done by checkpoints so you have to start again sometimes. The fights are horribly harder. On Dreamcast they pushed the difficulty to the maximum the enemies have more health points and their AI has been greatly improved it is very difficult to beat them without getting hit and they do enormous damage fortunately there is a system of real-time saving on the emulator. Parts of the mini cutscenes have been removed, such as the boat trip with enemies jumping on the boat, which is a real shame. The worst suppression is the voice of the enemies, we no longer hear their voices which raise the alarm at the start of the combat and their cry of agony at the end of the combat, perhaps it is censorship? The positive point is that the fluidity of movements has been considerably improved and makes the game much faster but also the fights so it becomes as hard as Sekiro to parry as the movements have been accelerated.

The more I see the combat in this game failing, the better I like the good system in the later released trilogy (Sands of Time, Warrior Within and the Two Thrones). Especially in those last 2 games the combat system was pretty neat. Such a shame they had to rush this game.

[@Mirabzadeh]

the platform going up and doen at 2:08: I can't climb it up although my timing is right. I play at a Windows XP. Could it be a bug or do I need to reduce graphic quality?

[@ghousepasha6484]

Exactly my issue, it never works.

[@STKeTcH]

I never made it this far. Is this level supposed to be a dream, after the prince fell down? I don't get it

[@Killer41324]

I had got the same problem,try to change the resolution.It will be much better.

[@mrinterested7217]

you saved my life lolz 2017

[@stealmil]

this game derserve a remake by from software so much if only i was a rich billionaire wall street mogul for invest my money on this game

[@nl3paul3nl]

@elbryan42 True, true and true. Still enjoying your videos,though.

[@saddreamingninja]

Im playing this on my laptop as i commwnt. I just wanted to see this particular level. Haw anyone else ever envountered an invisible box & tried dragging it near the guard? Right whren he falls at 20:20. Instead of gping forward you go th oposite way

[@SpudChickenSaltedChips]

Oh look, it's the worst level in the game. Seriously though, I have no idea why they changed the floating ruins from its original concept art to... whatever this is. The original version was going to have a more natural-looking sky, as well as more stone greys and green foliage. But nah. Here are a bunch of random ideas of varying quality slapped together over a bunch of dark bricks and a fucking blue-cheese fart cloud skybox. Yuck.
