This is the story and behind-the-scenes development of Ratchet & Clank's most addictive fan mod, and my new favorite way to play Ratchet & Clank 1.
I didn't expect to come back to Ratchet & Clank so soon after my retrospective series had finished, but then while working on my Rift Apart video, I found a new thread that I had to keep pulling on: The Ratchet & Clank Randomizer mod. A fan-made (sort-of-)mod that technically isn't a mod at all, this Randomizer completely rewrote how I saw the first R&C game, and it took me from not wanting to think about the games after two years of working on videos about them...to not being able to get enough of playing the first game over and over again.

Thanks to Raycon once again for sponsoring - go to buyraycon.com/TGB for 15% off your order! As a quick note, for whatever reason the contrast ended up being a little funky when I recorded the Randomizer run. The other runs I'd recorded were fine, just the livestreamed one had this issue; outside of the couple stream clips I used, this is all direct capture. I did some correcting where possible, but the most astute viewers may notice that it looks a little darker than normal - that's why!

I'm no reverse engineer (except for not being an engineer), but from listening to the dev commentaries I know that they had a weird sort of scripting language on 2 and 3 and they actually had to use enemies to make events happen. I don't know about rac 1, but even for that reason, there's a high likelihood that 2 and 3 would be horrendous to decompile and reverse-engineer.

Hell, in the last few months the community has created a multiplayer wave defense mode like Nazi Zombies, added hover bike races with custom race tracks, and ported maps and weapons between the two games.

this might actually be theoretically possible given how people have already started combing various games for randomizers ex: there's a randomizer that's both link to the past and super metroid. and another that's both Ocarina of time and Majoras mask (there could be more, those are just the 2 i know of) and they both contain doors that lead to the other game. that being said modding/rom hacking ratchet isnt exactly super advanced yet compared to those, so who knows when it could happen...but it could happen potentially

I don't really have any experience with R&C period, but for what it's worth, that idea of finding a new appreciation for a game's structure and design/thought process is one of the reasons I love Zelda randomizers so much, particularly Ocarina of Time's. I had a healthy respect for OoT beforehand, of course, but playing rando after rando ended making me love and appreciate it way, way more than I ever expected, and it really showed me how different it is from later games. Like, here's an example. In Wind Waker's forest dungeon, there's a room with a thorn-maze and the thorns only pop up when you get close. You're supposed to navigate it, grab a bomb flower, toss it past the thorns to blow up a wooden barrier, and then go all the way around to get the chest behind said barrier. But during a recent randomizer run, I had Fire Arrows with me, and thought "oh, hey! why don't I just use those and cut out the middleman"? So I pulled out my bow and launched a fire arrow at the wooden barrier... only for the arrow to bounce off of literally nothing. It turns out that the maze is just made of invisible walls, and the thorns are just for visual indication. This is a really small thing, and you'd never realize it normally since you can't get Fire Arrows until way later, but it highlights how the devs were focused on making sure you solved puzzles the way they intended. Compare the Master Quest version of OoT's Water Temple. There's some rooms in that where you have to light multiple torches at once to unlock doors or grates. At that point in the game, your only source of fire on-demand is Din's Fire, and thus it's the obvious solution to those puzzles. However, during a randomizer run, Din's Fire was out of reach, and so I was forced to head into the MQ Water Temple with just Fire Arrows. I had to light each torch individually, while also going fast enough to hit them all before any one of 'em fizzled out. It's a bit annoying, but certainly doable. Again, it's a really small thing, but it highlights the difference in mindset. In OoT, those torches are simply objects in the dungeon, and there's nothing stopping you from using a different method to light them all up. The devs never intended it (beating the Water Temple is how you unlock Fire Arrows in the first place), but when put into a randomizer situation, it highlights how malleable and open-ended OoT's design is.

I know the HD collection on the PS3 isn't great, but it's definitely the easiest way to play it, and it's all three games in one anyway, simple enough. God I love these games

The fact that, as a RaC fan, you can't really feel this 1st experience is very true And that's whhy I'm thinkin about challenges like a nuzlocke for a Pokemon game For RaC 2, I tried a "economic run" Where you can't buy ammo for your weapons (besides Killanoids and Shield Charger, where I considered you can buy 1 ammo (4 for Killanoids and 1 for Shield Charger) per vendor you see in a level, without abusing it That was a very very cool challenge It matches a lot with the spirit of the game And omg, I love it because it forces you to use ALL of your weapons And it forces you to not simply spam your favourite weapons or the best You have to think before using the weapon You have to play with weapons lvlups for ammo And you don't have the "you're missing experience" when you're using lvled up weapons Because you don't care, you need to use ALL WEAPONS because of ammo I highly recommand trying it !

This was a great look into the game. I'm always fascinated by randomizers and honestly wish that games started having them built in from the get-go without fans having to force one in. Granted I realize it would probably inflate the scope of game design to a ridiculous degree, but I feel like it would help give developers either a good look at their games design in the "intended" way, or just give a fun way to play their game. It FEELS like it would be a simple thing, but then be a surprise of "oh no this is massive". Also for the PSP Ratchet, I will always say I feel like Size Matters' best contribution is how it went about armor. Honestly I wish it was in more of the mainline games, we're close to it in Rift Apart, but it's only cosmetic and is only 3 slots (helmet, chest (which is combo-ed with gloves), & boots) whereas in Size Matters it's 4 (helmet, body, gloves, & boots), and each armor piece adds a neat passive status effect to your loadout. Although you need specific combos of armor to get some effects rather than the effects being a result of whatever piece you have on, not sure if that's a good or bad thing. I can see the reason behind it, but I feel like it should be the case of you get a certain kind of bonus no matter what armor piece you have on. Granted you could have the best of both worlds by comboing the two iterations where you can have a certain armor piece set as your cosmetic look while you can have the function of another.

R&C1 is probably the game in the series I've returned to the most because of those differences from the later games. I still really enjoy the later games, I'll even say some of those are better than 1. But I like getting a new weapon and not feeling like I HAVE to use it, even if it sucks or just does not vibe with my playstyle, because otherwise, be it using the Wrench or a weapon that's already fully upgraded, if I don't use a weapon in need of upgrading then you are basically wasting XP. I've seen people occasionally bring up resource management in these games when talking about Bolts and Ammo, but never about XP in the same way. Cleared out the level using your maxed out weapons? Well now the enemies that spawn in during revisits don't give out XP to prevent grinding out your health, but you can't level up that weapon now either. Next level has enemies that are too strong for that fully upgraded weapon to take down without dumping the entire ammunition reserve into it? Should have thought about that on the previous level. I think the only other R&C game to not have this problem, without completely scrapping the "less/no XP on revisits" mechanic, is All4One by making weapon upgrades something you buy with bolts. I like that game but you gotta buy weapon upgrades on a per character basis and you can't share Bolts between characters. This introduces a whole new mess of issues however.

With regards to the PAL vs NTSC thing, it's my understanding that by the N64/PS1 era, games didn't run slow any more, they just ran at the slightly reduced refresh rates. So while you were now playing at 25/50fps, the game was still running at the right speed. TV hasn't really standardised fully yet though. PAL TV broadcasts are still at 50hz to this day, it's just that all our TVs can also handle NTSC standards too, so we can watch American stuff or plug in consoles without issues.

It would make these things more accessible to a general audience and, because the company write still have control over the mods, they wouldn't necessarily undermine trophy support or any meta game balance. Only obstacle might be objections by certain creators. I think Japan in particular cam be very pinickity about that kind of thing.

There's a randomiser for everything nowadays. I'm sure you can make a randomised child if you got with the right person.

Funny thing, Japan has several different power grids. Some of it is 60 and some of it is 50. But they standardised at least video/TV to be universally 60.

I want someone to try to incorporate that randomizer into the Archipelago Multiworld system. If you think it's chaotic getting weapons for one game everywhere, imagine if there's two or three other games to get items for as well! Though you would 100% have to emulate the game. There is no way that you'd be able to get that to work on an actual PS3.

So lit theyre all free on stream for ps+ members. As a kid, i played each one tens of times through. I think 2 or 4 was my favs, but then i didnt get into the future series, but now i bought rivet and bolts, man this is a great game. Maybe a bit too easy on the most hard difficulty.

Not all pizza is equal. Some is pepperoni, like Ratchet and Clank 1 or ToD. Some is meat feast stuffed crust like Going Commando and A Crack In Time. But then some misguided individual puts pineapple on it, and that's when you get Size Matters.

The clank-less level was always my least favorite, so many times the slingshot would just fail and you'd fall off the world. Praying you've hit a checkpoint, only to load up right next to your ship..

The ps2/xbox era of games were the best and developers need to focus on remaking those games with modern engines so that new people can find and play them. Of course OG people will buy them too.

setting everything up for this is a surprisingly painful process and I kind of wish you had explained some of it because wow actually finding info is a pain. tbf, I am purposely avoiding the discord because I am a firm believer that if a discord is necessary you have utterly failed at preservation and documentation. on the other hand, I still haven't even made it that far because modding the PS3 is causing enough problems by itself thanks to the exploit website being down Edit: finally got it all working and while painful, it was absolutely worth it this is so much fun

I can't really sympathize with this cause when I play games, I will simply never play a game ever again unless I play it differently, I specifically only pick a game up again if I have a different way to play it in mind. Because of that I just never get sick of anything.
