@onekillwonder_: I think it holds up about as well as could be expected for a game of this sort. The controls are a bit clunky but once you get used to the it's not a problem, and visually I'd say it's one of the best looking games on the PS1. I think its art style makes up for the obviously dated tech.
@sawtooth: I've played and love both, but the first is definitely better. There's not really much in the way of platforming in it and what's there is generally not a problem.
@heltom92: For sure. I think the thing about the gameplay that would mainly need to be refined is the hit detection. But another aspect that makes the combat clunky is the fact that Sir Dan doesn't stop moving when he attacks and he has no manual aim ability for ranged weapons.
I just decided to replay The Wind Waker (the original GameCube version). This game is just such a joy. It's incredible how well the graphics hold up, and the soundtrack is one of my all-time favorites in gaming. I remember first getting my GameCube and it came with a Zelda promo disc that had a 20 minute demo of Wind Waker on it and I would just play that over and over again, and all this time later the magic isn't lost.
@reputatsioon: I'm a massive Crash fan and I'm overall thoroughly enjoying this collection, but I agree with everything you've said here. It just feels kind of off. I play these games often so I know for a fact that I don't struggle this much with them on the PS1. Especially the underwater levels in Warped, where the movement seems really messed up.
Also, something you didn't mention that really bothers me is how long it takes for the level globes to load after stepping on the buttons in the Time Twister. That stuff was really snappy in the original so I'm shocked that it's so sluggish here.
@socuteboss: I think Dany sucks as a character, but that's an issue that's carried over from the books. For what it's worth, I much prefer watching Dany on the show to reading through her chapters in the books. As for Ramsey, I found him really entertaining, but to each his own.
@starvinggamer: Because they clearly don't want to have to reveal the drop rates, and considering they're already out there this move makes me wonder if they're planning on making drop rates worse. The addition of a minuscule amount of credits to the loot box purchases is obviously a workaround, so they seem to be giving the minimum amount of credits they reasonably can for purchases. It reminds me of when people used to sell Runescape accounts on eBay by selling a pencil or something "with a free Runescape account included."
