I asked you to explain why they didnt age well. You gave one reasoning. That reasoning was they were Mario 64 clones.


Soulessly ripping the 3D platform mechanics from Mario 64 and making them worse isn't "one thing", it's the whole thing.

I said since Mario 64 wasnt a clone and you gave only 1 criteria for something to not age well, you must believe that Mario 64 has aged well. I point to an extreme flaw with Mario 64 that hasnt aged well and that both Spyro and Crash did better.

Theres no way around this.


You simply aren't making sense. Why does ripping off from one thing somehow make that thing immune from aging? You're talking about two different, independent factors here. They've both aged poorly, Spyro even more so because it's derivative of Mario 64. That doesn't mean Mario's aged well, but it's certainly aged better.

You said the reason Spyro and Crash sucked/didnt age well was because they were Mario clones (which they really werent), which leads me to believe you think Mario 64 aged well and to which I will immediately point to the awful camera and laugh in your face.

How does saying they're derivative of something equate to the original property aging well?

You're reading into something I didn't even say.


You literally gave that as the sole argument for why it didnt age well. If that is the case, youre arguing Mario 64 objectively aged better and since it didnt derive off of anything, lacks any more reasoning in favor of it not aging well according to your standards.

No, you're trying to pigeon-hole me into saying Mario 64 has aged well so you can say I have a bias towards it. This topic wasn't even really about Mario 64, or Spyro for that matter. The fact Spyro is a poor man's platformer is besides the point.

A good year is about nothing in video game development time, especially when you consider it was also the 90s and it took more effort and longer hours to make games than it takes today.

You didnt address my point about Mario 64.

Bullshit. These games were literally pumped out in about a year. A year back then was pretty much the entire dev time.

And what was your point, exactly? You seemed to just be trying to deflect from the issue that Spyro is deeply derivative of Mario 64 by saying the camera wasn't good.

Literally called the Spyro trilogy "bad games".

What are you smoking and where can I buy it?

They were at best average at the time. They're 20-year old relics that haven't aged well and now they're being dug up and released again as something worth playing.

If you like the games and want to play them, then fine. I've got no issue with that. But don't sit here and pretend it's on any other basis than nostalgia and it's not regressive.


can you elaborate more on the havent aged well ?

Something that's derivative of much better franchises shows its age, just naturally. Making a Mario clone, adding gliding to it, and then taking out all of the fun of level design makes for a poor game in 2018. I look back on it more as a curiosity in the age of mascot platformers, not the merits of its gameplay.

I will say though, getting Stewart Copeland to do the soundtrack was really awesome. No denying that.


Mario clone? Mario 64 was barely out before both Crash and Spyro came out. Actually, Crash was something Mario should have been after SMW, instead of Mario 64. Not to mention neither game has bad level design, aside from Crash 3 which had half the game be stupid vehicle mini-games.

And uh, does this make Mario 64 automatically good or something? Since it was original? Something that aged well? Please dont say yes, because the camera is one of the worst things in any video game ever.

"Barely"? There was at least a good year between Mario 64 and Spyro. Not to mention you're divorcing it from the context that these games were being made in about a year. The influence is rather apparent.

Yeah, thats the reason video games have regressed. Surely its not the fact that new games are 2 hour 30 minute CGI movies with little gameplay and when there is, its mashing a button in a straight hallway. And when its not this, its a broken Call of Duty clone.

Yep. TCs reason is the reason.

Lazy and repetitive button-mashers weren't a thing before now? I've got some news for you, my friend.

The difference is that Michael Jackson has inspired an entire generation of great artists who are worth supporting, and are there if you know where to look. Video games have regressed into releasing old games for new consoles at a price that's several times their value.

Lot of words in there you don't understand how to use.

And you don't settle out of court if they're just "rumours".

Sounds more like you just can't address what I'm saying so it's easier for you to say I don't know what I'm talking about.
