It's intrinsically human to have a heirarchy and want people to recognise your position in it.

Which is one of the reasons I despise humanity and hope our brains evolve further into not needing to do that anymore.

We aren't going to evolve in to communists lol

That's not what I meant...

It's the end result though.

You're saying that capitalism can't exist if people stop feeling the need to climb in the hierarchy just to be recognised of their position alone?

Yes. If people don't need to get better then they'll choose the easiest job and the country stagnates.

I disagree. People will get better if they need to for a reasonable reason. But doing it just because it feels good being important almost never ends well.

How do you guys feel about multiple ways to get the same power up? I've been mulling this over for a while.

Let's say you can buy the high jump boots at an early shop for a high price but you can also get them for free way further along in the game. Might be a cool way to sequence break, provided you've found enough money early.

Sounds cool. You could also have a room with a door that closes after X amount of time passes (from the moment the player goes in the room) with a power up behind it. You could go fast and get it, but if you fail, you'll eventually reach the other side of the door later on in the game.

Ohohoho the original C1 was worse, trust me. Crash felt heavy as a tank and was really unresponsive, taking to long to move and not stopping when you needed. And you couldn't even save when you wanted.

The remake is great tho, and the physics are really good, it's just that the first game is hard as heck. If you want a nice learning curve, start with the third and make your way downwards until the first.

Ultima_Dragoon posted...
There's also the newly-rounded edges. Before, you either made a jump or you didn't. Like Mario, you could be 80% off the ledge but you're still safe as long as your toe is touching. Now, if you get to close to any ledge or platform, Crash has a tendency to slide off. It's more realistic but makes for a frustrating platforming experience.

Few people notice that this actually makes the game easier because you can jump while slipping out, making it extremely forgiving for when you jump too late, but killing you if your landing is sloppy (which will never happen if you exploit the former).

If the player can somehow mark the map to remember where to come back later, I think it would make things 1000 times better.

It would be even betterer if the game marked that itself.

Yes and no. The former requires the player to recognise that there's something there and he will need to come back later on, and the later gives this away. So it depends on what kind of experience the game is trying to give to the player.

Backtraking is unavoidable, and imo is hardly the problem. The problem lies in the fact that you may have found yourself in a dead end that is obvious that you need to use an ability you don't have yet, to earn that ability 10 in game hours later and don't remember exactly where that dead end was. If the player can somehow mark the map to remember where to come back later, I think it would make things 1000 times better.

Most cases I've experienced you just can't move at all outside the map. There are only 2 that allowed me to do so. One of them never "cleaned" up the screen in that area, so you could leave infinite after images in that void. It was cool at first, but the downside is that you lose all sense of distance, meaning you can't tell if you hit a wall or not. The other I was so hyped to keep playing that I used a teleport item to get rid of the glitch. But I think there was a point with no "floor" anymore, so you would fall endlessly from the edge of the world.

Think of it like this.
An Integer is a container where you store a value.
32bits shows how big value you can store. In this case, it can store a maximum number of 4,294,967,295. Or if you use a positive and negative value, from 2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647.
16bits can store a number of 65,535, or between 32,768 and 32,767 if we use a positive and negative value.
8bit can store a number of 255, or between -128 to 127 if we use a positive and negative value.


It's great when you hit too much gold and wind up with negative gold in a game because of this.

Super Mario Bros got that problem with lifes.
It starts to show symbols instead of numbers at 10, and once you hit enough lifes, they turned negative.

Reminds me of that glitch in Digimon World 3 where the final boss dealt so much damage to a lv1 Renamon that the health variable would loop backwards and make her immortal for the rest of the fight.

I can become invisible during thefts. It happened more than once when I was among a group of people and everyone got something stolen except me. They didn't even looked at me like I wasn't there at all.

I also have 100% of chance of dreaming about killing someone when I'm mad at them when I go to sleep.

There was also a time when I had my hand full of blood for no reason. No injury anywhere. Can't explain how the heck that happened. I guess it's some kind of power I didn't fully developed yet (and I'm not sure if want to develop it ever).

And lastly, I can fly for a while if I jump from a tall building. The taller it is, the longer I can fly before touching the ground.
