Thank you for uploading this. Love to watch speed runs with awesome commentary like this one, but most of them are during the live events and the reading of donations drives me crazy! Much love brother ❤️
Can i ask what is their criteria selecting runners? your crash run at AGDQ is what made me start watching speedrunning videos, i was so entertained by what you did/said, it was like a new game, i've watched planny now but not many have made me want to play the game even more. Sorry for my broken english, im a brazilian
It's an automated timer that removes the load times and the fade-to-black sections between levels. The timer can't tell that it's fading to black until the whole thing happens, so it jumps back in time after it's done. You'll see it happen at the end of pretty much every level.
When i was kid, fire extinquisher sized to be precise, found many things and tricks to save time on levels. Funny to see some of them used still on those remakes. Even though nothing beats saturday morning and enthusiastic child smacking ps1 😂 Shame that my interest in gaming waned over decade ago.
Something that's always been bothering me about the time trial relics in the Crash series... Aren't diamonds worth more than gold or platinum? Shouldn't the sapphire relic represent the best of the three? It's one big diamond! (Or sapphire, I'm not an expert on precious stones, but I'd imagine it would be worth more than one made of platinum or any metal for that matter)
Sapphires are a bit more common than things like diamonds, and gold and platinum are worth more than sapphires in comparison. So I always thought of it as it's just worth more the faster you get, but the scale they used is a bit peculiar in general, why not just bronze, silver and gold?
@@bullshifterz8815 I see... Yes, bronze, silver, and gold would have made more sense perhaps. Do you know if titanium is worth more than platinum? Because in the Ratchet and Clank series, in the first game you collect gold bolts, then platinum in the second and then titanium in the third game. I always thought titanium was a really hard metal, much stronger than iron (sounds like it to me at least), but I don't think it's worth more than platinum. Also, is platinum worth more than gold? Because if it's not, then basically you collect these metals in "the wrong order" (descending value like gold, silver, bronze).
@@atlast7035 Titanium is a very strong metal yes! But it isn't worth more than platinum, which is much rarer than titanium or gold, and also used in things like catalytic converters on cars. It's a useful but sadly rare metal. Stereotypically in terms of ranking, it would go Bronze, Silver, Gold and then Platinum.
@@bullshifterz8815 But that's exactly my point. Why would they have you collect first gold, then platinum and finally titanium? Wouldn't that be like first silver, then gold and then bronze? I think they ran out of precious metals and decided on titanium for some reason.
