Greatest movie tie-in game of all time?
>>
>Half the framerate.
>Music replaced.
>Fewer planets.
>Most of the original guns missing.
>Cutscenes are Oblivion-tier.

No, it's another shitty movie tie-in game to continue the tradition of shitty movie tie-in games.
>>
>>334811436
I think so. The story was rushed, but otherwise it was lots of fun.
>>
>>334811763
It's a reboot sold at 2/3rds a normal games price, not a remake. Of course it's different and has less planets.
>>
>>334811763
>>Half the framerate.
Insomniac only makes 30fps games and complaining about framerate is a shitty meme.
>>Music replaced.
No one cares.
>>Fewer planets.
True but they added new ones and this game has a low-budget so remaking all of them and adding new ones would have been costly.
>>Most of the original guns missing.
They were replaced with new ones and ones from the Future series that are better.
>>Cutscenes are Oblivion-tier.
I don't know what that means. The cutscenes are great.
>>
Yes, greatest movie tie-in game. It's also the GOTY 2016 currently.
>>
>>334811436
It may be.

Doesn't change the fact that it suffered from being a movie tie in though.

It is better quality in cutscenes since there are very few. But I don't gameplay and performance doesn't hold a candle. It was simple game back in the day. The remake has more complicated visuals, enemy reactions, complex weaponry and over all better mechanics. So in performance and gameplay does an out standing job of blowing the first out of the water.

As for content. They took out the levels that weren't fun

TIER LIST:

Ratchet and Clank PS4

GOOD:
Going Commando
Ratchet and Clank 2002
Deadlocked
Tools of Destruction
Into the Nexus

MEH:
Size Matters
Quest 4 Booty
All 4 One

BAD:
Secret Agent Clank
Q-Force

>>334817082
Switch all4one and qforce
Also secret agent clank was decent for a psp game even though size matters was better
Also add deadlocked to great tier
>>
>>334817402
All 4 One is fun with friends. On your own, it definitely falls into the meh/bad category.
>>
>>334812831
Complete as in completely new, it's not bring ported
>>
>>334813217
The original Ratchet and Clank for PS2 was worse for one huge reason- there was no strafing. Shit was annoying as fuck
>>
>>334811763
Movies are 24 fps
>>
>>334818273

The levels weren't designed like later Ratchets. Fewer and less aggressive enemies, and more platforming. Ratchet 2 without strafing would be hell, but Ratchet 1 plays fine.
>>
So how is the framerate actually? I'm fine with a stable 30.
>>
>>334811436

Yes, but it's not like there's any serious competition
>>
>>334818961
It's a stable 30. It has occasional slowdown, but it's intended slowdown for cinematic moments.

>>334812364
>Insomniac only makes 30fps games

That's not Spiderman 2 though

Yeah, I loved those long ass races, mediocre combat controls and constant side missions to collect balloons and whatnot. Spiderman 2 is remembered fondly solely for one part of it, an admittedly huge part but one nonetheless, the web swinging.

Until now.

Says me.
>>
>>334831601

>5 hours long
It's much longer than that if you actually play the game and don't speed run. Don't even try to say you did in 5 hours on hard, either.

>butchered Ratchet's personality
Ratchet has never had that great a personality to begin with. Even then, he's just more in line with the Future series Ratchet where he was more idealistic before getting weary about heroism.

>missing planets
Because they weren't going for a 1:1 remake, and the worlds that got cut didn't fit into the revamped story.

>replaced the god tier soundtrack
The new soundtrack is just fine. Sure, it'd have been nice to see some remakes of classic tracks, but there have been far worse remake OSTs
>>
>>334832132
>It's much longer than that if you actually play the game and don't speed run. Don't even try to say you did in 5 hours on hard, either.
I didn't speed run, the game is piss easy even on hard. Maybe you're just bad.
>Ratchet has never had that great a personality to begin with. Even then, he's just more in line with the Future series Ratchet where he was more idealistic before getting weary about heroism.
He was a dick in the early games and evolved into more of an hero personality in the later games. They completely threw that away here to be in line with the movie.
>Because they weren't going for a 1:1 remake, and the worlds that got cut didn't fit into the revamped story.
The planet variety was one the best things about the first game. This one is too samey.
>The new soundtrack is just fine. Sure, it'd have been nice to see some remakes of classic tracks, but there have been far worse remake OSTs
I don't feel it, it's just forgettable as fuck.
>>
>>334832623
He was a dick in the 1st game and that's it. He's super professional by the time Going Commando starts.
>>
>>334832623

You clearly did speed run, doing everything in the game takes far more than 5 hours.

And Ratchet was only a dick in the first game, and even then it was a brief bout of wanting revenge for nearly being killed by Qwark. After that, he was all about snappy quips and saving the day. Movie Ratchet is just way more into being a hero, and that's fine since this isn't meant to be the exact same Ratchet.

And the planet variety is fine, they all look different with things to do. Only real downside is that the enemy variety is a bit lacking in terms of special/location specific enemies.
>>
>>334832623
He was a dick for one game, fuck off with this shit. It's not like it was even fun to watch, he was just an asshole, there was barely any development either, it was just "Ok ok, I'll be a hero now". I just played through the first game again recently and the planets are basically just pallatte swaps of each other, vairety is non existent. Play Acit, then go back to 2002, you will see how the planets start to get tedious, there's too many of them and they're too long and there's too much backtracking. Also the soundtrack is fucking garbage fuck off with this meme, it's just beeping and shit, jesus.

Honestly, nothing about the soundtracks of R&C were ever that memorable to me. Only songs I distinctly remember are Courtney Gear's song and that Daft Punk-ish song from Tools of Destruction's credits. While nothing was bad, it just sort of all bled together compared to say the soundtracks of the Insomniac Spyro games.

Not so much in the game. He is the narrator, and he's not always present during most of the planets where you work with the rangers.

>>334837707

Kind of does in Up your Arsenal, but that was sort of the point since it was his redemption story.

As for the Future games, I would say he does kind of get forced into the spotlight at times. Like when he hosts Tachyon's arena in ToD and "infiltrates" Nefarious' lair in ACiT. Still, at least they never forced him to be with us in every level outside of those two shoddy spinoff party games.

It's literally a remake and a reboot. Insomniac said BOTH games are official.

Dumbass.
>>
>>334840706
So it's a Star Trek 2009 kind of deal?
>>
>>334840906

Kind of. The idea is you're reenacting the events of the movie in the game, while the original game is the REAL adventure.

Does feel like a missed opportunity, though. They could have had it that the remake was set between R&C1 and Going Commando, with Qwark hearing about the holofilm and hologame and then ending with him saying "Only some of that happened." And then maybe leading into him telling of the original game proper.
>>
>>334841279
I don't know. I'm kind of hoping they just do a hard reboot. Don;t get me wrong, I enjoyed the Future games. But by the time ACIT ended we had time travel, recurring villains, Ratchet's Lombax ancestry, Clank's background being retconned, multiple galaxies, multiple alternate dimensions and it just started to get out of hand. This is a chance to go back to basis. Just 2 friends saving the galaxy.

They still need to at least conclude Ratchet's homesickness. They kept teasing it in the Future games and even that comic between CiT and ITN. Just let the little bastard reconnect with his people and call it a day.

Also, Clank's background wasn't really retconned, they just gave a clearer reason why he was created. If anything, it just means he has two parents, the machine mom that popped him out, and Orvus.
>>
>>334842198
I always preferred the original set up. Him being a defect and choosing to do great things as opposed to being destined to do so by being a great time lords son just feels better to me. It's the difference between Finn and rey in Force Awakens. One ends up doing great things by choice and circumstance and the other ends up doing great things because of destiny and the force of the universe pushing her there. I prefer the former over the latter.
>>
>>334842593

Eh, he wasn't really destined. I don't think Orvus knew what Drek was up to, since his job was to just maintain time, not oversee or use it to anyone's advantage. Clank is still a defect since he's not big and strong like most other robots, but makes up for it with his smarts and adaptability. Orvus simply dropped him into Solana so he could experience life before being summoned to the Clock, as he wanted his son to make the choice with a clear mind rather than "I MADE you for this, now fucking do it."
