It'll definitely take time, but trust me, Microsoft buying Acti-Bliz was probably the best possible outcome. 2: I myself am not much of a Crash Bandicoot fan. The closest I ever got to playing one was on a copy of the first one my uncle had. But I can definitely see the seething rage of fans after hearing this.

The two ideas for Crash Bandicoot 5 did sound quite fun but I kinda like the first idea more than the crossover with spyro. That been said I would like if they make one day another Crash Bandicoot game I hope that it isnt like Crash Bandicoot 4, cause I really didnt like that game. I played it and actually managed to finish every single level in that game and must say it was way too hard that didnt make any fun anymore at the end. The levels were also way too big and way too long from the very beginning. Normaly you start with short level to get used to everything and to have a relaxing start, hence why most CB games had in the first level just 20-30 boxes in it. Than you get bigger with each level to train also the player slowly to adapt to the harder levels. But when I saw that in CB4 the fist level had 100 or more boxes and that game even before adviced me to have limitless lifes, I was scared for the rest, and I was right about that. Near the end of the game you had to plan in 1-2 hours to finish a one level and the possibility to get every single box seemed just impossible. And once you were done with the level you take a inner oath never to revisit that level again. That is something that shouldnt be the case. The story wasnt also well told. Ratched and Clank did better with similiar story because they had more interaction between the characters as well more smaller cutscenes in between the levels. I mean I have no idea why that Tawna from the other dimension and her foe are the only ones from diffrent timelines in that game, what exatcly happend to her Crash and why she didnt return to her timeline after the game ends.

[@emporcs5546]

I agree that Activision should have given this Crash 5/Spyro Crossover project a chance. But such is Activision it seems; they only cared about the profits and money and not about the actual games themselves. Though, if you think about it, I think this management issue was a problem within Activision for a while.. I mean people HAVE been saying they are greedy for years for as long as I can remember lol (not even kidding, though). So, unfortunately, I have to say I'm not even surprised that they would ONLY be concerned about the numbers. Activision is... well.. Activision. EXACTLY: I like how you worded this: "Overnight success does not exist." It takes time, work, and energy to build success. This is true of most things in life. You can't just expect things to happen. You have to work for them. It's extremely disappointing to me as well. This project/These projects should have been given a chance. Also, although Crash 4 wasn't my favorite Crash game at all, TFB should have been given a chance with a Crash 5 or Crash/Spyro Crossover, imo. I mean, let me clarify, I didn't love Crash 4, I think it has its issues (more so than the OG trilogy and N. Sane, imo), and there were definitely some blatant problems with the game that I wish had been worked out. But that in no way means I'm not appreciative of the devs. and their work. It just means I'm not a huge fan of that game: plain and simple. Of course, there are some nuances to that, but that is the general idea of my feelings towards the game. In addition, I am of the opinion that completing games to their fullest is something to strive for. This is especially true for Crash games - reason being??... Because it was ENCOURAGED in the OG trilogy and it's the way I like to play games. I enjoy going for full completion when it is handled correctly and there is encouragement along the way to go for it. That's why. It's also just the way I do things. I typically don't like seeing things half-finished or incomplete. It's just my personality. And so, anyways... what I will say is I'm happy that maybe this is a new beginning for Crash in a way since the IP is now in the hands of Microsoft. We will just have to wait and see what happens.

[@leonduncan3327]

I thought Crash 4 did good, Especially since this was my favorite game where it was Tropy's biggest moment to shine as my personal favorite character and villain where he used Uka Uka's power to escape from their prison dimension (Something he never did before despite his loyalty towards him and Uka Uka's favorite over Cortex), Literally finds his own female counterpart companion and even owns Nitrous Oxide who was the big bad of Crash Team Racing who wanted to conquer their planet, All that spotlight before typical Cortex becomes the last villain again. And who can forget when Dingodile literally said "Bastard"? But yeah, Companies like these really love to cancel good stuffs as it's just too easy for them while it's too difficult for them to just keep working on the game and then finalizing it...

[@crashtefano]

I think this project about a "Crash 5" or Crash/Spyro crossover really came out at a bad time, with a pandemic affecting game development and Activision only being worried about their biggest cashcow Call of Duty, to the point they wanted all their studios to drop what they were doing at the time (in the case of Toys for Bob, they barely salvaged their Crash Team Rumble) to have all hands on deck for Warzone (if I can recall what COD project they were working on). Which is a shame because I think in a more favorable situation those 5+ million units sold by Crash 4 would have been enough to secure Crash's legacy even with those unreasonably unrealistic expectations. In fact, I think we will see new Crash games eventually, unless Microsoft is too busy closing their own studios to find a developer that would work with their IP. Still, Toys for Bob was done dirty lately and they did the right thing by becoming independent and being only associated with Microsoft as partners. Maybe that's what we need to see more often in this uncertain age of mergers and acquisitions: development teams that don't work FOR the big bad corporations that decide on massive layoffs because they just can't handle that many studios and are more interested on owning content and making profit, but they can still work WITH the one who hold the rights of all those franchises and want people to make good things with them. But that's just my idea. Who knows, I might be wrong.

Let’s be honest here, Crash isn’t to Activision what Sonic is to Sega. Crash is a small niche game for that for that developer.

[@Songwritersbehindthecurtain]

Strongly agreed 👍 💯. And crash bandacoot and the warth of cortex made by tt games. And in my opinion always respect the art if it’s music or video game 🎮 and that’s true. And I hope Nsane trilogy will have a update that includes the modern and classic mode because modern mode When players first boot up Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time, they will discover that the Modern mode is the recommended mode. In Modern mode, Crash Bandicoot 4 players don't have to worry about limited lives. Crash and Coco can die an infinite number of times, with the only consequence having to start back over at the last checkpoint. The game has a high level of difficulty, and so it's likely that Toys for Bob recommends this mode so players don't get too frustrated with the game. while retro mode In Retro mode, Crash Bandicoot 4 adds limited lives, which significantly increases the stakes. Levels are filled with free life boxes in addition to the usual wumpa fruit boxes, plus collecting 100 wumpa fruit will give players a free life as well. If Crash Bandicoot 4 players happen to die all of their lives while playing in Retro mode, they will have to start the entire level over from the beginning. Levels in Crash Bandicoot 4 can be pretty long sometimes, and so this could set players back quite a bit. And in my opinion rider I hope that Nsane trilogy will include modern mode just like it’s about time because it felt like it’s in a real world while retro world it’s in a limited world and in my own opinion I perfer modern mode than retro mode. I agree that I always want to see crash bandacoot 5 and I always want Nsane trilogy to have a update and have modern mode and for me playing with retro mode it just didn’t felt right for me I perfer modern mode because it fe;t like I was part of the world that crash bandacoot was in.

I blame Toys for Bob for that. Considering that the Crash franchise was NEVER on Activision priority list, sometimes you only have one chance to prove it, and for me they screwed up with Crash 4, since that game has a lot of issues (the completionist in me hated this game). The game sold FINE for a new Crash game, but it wasn't enough for Activision, and they clearly didn't want anotheer risk with Crash 5, so they reused some assets and created Crash Rumble (which is mediocre). And with Microsoft buying the company, i wouldn't be surprised it stayed dormant a couple of years until we have a new Crash game which is a reboot of some sorts aka Crash of the Titans, and the whole debacle starts again.

People will bash me for this but man, this is the happiest news ever for me. I despised Crash "4" with every fiber of my being. The characterization, the narrative, the nonsensical nuking of most of the timeline past C3. Actually let's stick on that last one for a bit. For emphasizing what we lost but for some reason nobody cared for we have CTR, Bash, Wrath of Cortex, Huge Adventure, N-Tranced, Nitro Kart, Tag Team Racing, Boom Bang, Purple, Twinsanity and Nitro Kart 2. People always say "why do you care story in Crash doesn't matter" then why did YOU all care? Why did you care enough to remove all of that from the timeline? Because you get a b-ner when hating on WoC, Purple and Tag Team Racing we should delete 80% of the whole thing and pretend to laugh along with the haters? No fam, I cared about Crash, ALL of Crash. I'm not gonna apologize for investing my energy and passion into something just because you didn't. It was the biggest slap in the damn face at the time, especially since games in the platforming genre like R&C: Rift Apart and Sonic Frontiers in close proximity did THE OPPOSITE and embraced all of the past and crafted a way forward. I hated the art style (I think it would have looked great for Spyro but it SUCKED for Crash), despised the redesigns with all my heart, the gameplay never clicked, the OST was a snoozefest, the level design was like a high school bully stealing your lunch money, by far the worst 100% of the whole franchise (yes, I even prefer 100%ing Bash over this one), I didn't like ANY component of Crasg "4". In a perfect world we would have received Crash *6* and it would have been a Twinsanity sequel, in an even more perfect world Twinsanity would have been remade in-between N-Sane Trilogy and the hypothetical Crash *6* due to high demand. I'd even have preferred for the Skylanders series to continue on with Crash as a major character or a third mainline Titans game over what we got. I literally prefer the franchise dy-ng a second time over whatever Toys For Bob were cooking for Crash "5". There was only one thing that popped in my mind when I read of the cancellation: IT'S ABOUT TIME.
