Ratchet & Clank 3 (Up Your Arsenal) - Kerwan - Metropolis

[@_Opalescence]

The return to Kerwan certainly had a differently feel than the first visit. Landing in Metropolis in R&C1 was more like solving a mystery that had led you to an intriguing alien city bustling with activity. In R&C3 it was a return to a once-familiar place that now the center of a massive armed conflict. There's a strong sense of urgency in the Up Your Arsenal version, like everything is exploding around you and everyone is fighting, but you have to make it through to save the day. In the 2002 Ratchet & Clank, it was more of a feeling of curiosity, like you were almost unknown in this new strange place so far from home.

[@maestrofeli4259]

Yeah! I really like the "war against nefarious/tyhrranoids" in uya, it suits the game very well.

[@ennassecretchild]

Man I can’t agree more. I love how much sense that makes! Like the way you describe the intensity of the return to metropolis and how the music feels like a familiar place and war breaking loose!

[@afarensis9720]

Exactly, I love how the music captures how different the atmosphere is in both games. The original OST is so mysterious, almost foreboding, but also bustling just like the city. Then in R&C 3 it's way more energetic to catch the giant ongoing battle that you walk in to the moment you enter the city. The sequel theme feels so familiar, but so different at the same time

Well, at least it had the version from ToD. The closest remix we had in the game.

[@blastortoise]

This theme is a lot more drastic though, in the remake Metropolis isn't ever in danger of being completely leveled.

[@TacticalOkuu]

Takes the calm, small scale fighting atmosphere of the first game into a full scale heavy war atmosphere of the third. It's not just Ratchet fighting a small army on his own this time, it's him fighting a new massive enemy regime with the rangers, and more casualties present.

[@SuperZeroman123]

Which is what makes this game more epic, you don't fight alone this time :D

[@Aflay1]

This sounds like what would happen if Metropolis was introduced in Ratchet and Clank 3. Not just a remake, but a remix. It didn't feel like an upgrade, because it didn't need one. It just needed to fit in. That's how progression is done. Fitting since it uses a lot of espionage motifs. Basically, Bergeaud knows his stuff. He doesn't try something new. He understands what is needed and does it.

Best music in this OST

[@SuperShadow]

0:18 the high-pitched techy percussion in the background is used in "Sonic After-6290 Mix" as well.

[@nicknuwe]

Techno/electronic music made in the early 2000s relies on a sample pack surprisingly often. You can hear a lot of samples that Bergeaud used for the R&C soundtracks in lots of other unexpected places (for example the Patapon 2 theme uses a drumloop that appears both in Metropolis and Umbris). If I could get my hands on this sample pack I would be the happiest composer in the world.

idk i went back to it and i realised it definitely has problems. compared to the first two games the game is much more streamlined and enemy variety is much more limited. a lot of tasks and worlds are hoarde mode,collect sewer crystals or arena battles and while its content it starts to feel like padding or like artificial grind. it has the best gameplay but its just a smaller game and years later we learned that the game was development hell unlike the first 2.

[@brent8407]

@@thelrproject257 main problem was them having to include a full on functional multiplayer mode to the already large main game in the same timespan it took them to develop going commando. Okay they kept hiring more people but development of resistance fall of man had already started as well. The fact that uya released in the state that it was, even with all of the flaws, was a miracle in itself as they were severely lacking in time. You can tell this game lacks a lot of polish, especially in the animations and world building like the first 2 games had. Planets were more linear, not a lot of npc inhabitants to encounter, not that many new unique weapons, almost no funny video intros for all the different planets. It's still a really good game and again it's amazing that it turned out that good in the end but it definitely has some rough edges.
