Calling all #DreamsPS4 players, creators, and especially animators!
Our PlayStation All-Stars fan game is coming along great but we could use all the help we can get!
Private message me, tag friends who might be interested, or just give a retweet to get the word out there.
@VoltaireSurge@JaybillsGames Saying “I prefer the official design but nice work” isn’t toxic. Just keeping your mouth shut if you don’t like someone’s creation isn’t toxic.
“Ewww It’s terrible. Ewww so nasty” is toxic.
If you think this is terrible, you must hate original Crash since it looks just like him
@VoltaireSurge@DazzlingDazzaD@JaybillsGames I don’t want to argue. These designs are way too far removed from the original for my taste. Not surprised they are this controversial.
It’s fine if you like them. I don’t. People are allowed to not like them
@VoltaireSurge@DazzlingDazzaD@JaybillsGames OG Trlogy, 3 GBA games, Wrath, slight changes for CNK and Teinsanity, OG designs again for remakes. All those are very close if not the same as the OG.
Only Crash 4 and Titans games have major redesigns.
@VoltaireSurge@DazzlingDazzaD@JaybillsGames Crash had the same design for 90% of games. The Naughty Dog design is the definitive one, it’s fine if you don’t like that one as much but that’s Crash.
The two major redesigns are unsurprisingly controversial
@VoltaireSurge@JaybillsGames Anything that even slightly criticizes the new design, no matter how polite, gets met with tons of nastiness and vitriol. It’s frankly quite disgusting behavior.
I honestly never thought I would see people behave this toxic toward other fans who are just stating opinions.
@VoltaireSurge@DazzlingDazzaD@JaybillsGames That’s your opinion. I want designs that mimic the originals since those are the definitive Crash designs.
There’s literally no reason to change major character features and proportions. Fine if you like it, but don’t expect everyone to
@JaybillsGames @DrMarioishere And people absolutely ripping apart NST/ CTR designs despite them being almost unanimously loved a few months ago.
I’m sure some didn’t love them, but there is a lot of revision list history going on with people suddenly loathing them. Seems hypocritical.
@JaybillsGames @DrMarioishere Tons of people I’ve seen saying they always hated Crash’s pink mouth specifically. I’ve seen comments saying the old design is bad because it doesn’t look like a Bandicoot (as I’d it was ever supposed to look like a real Bandicoot)... and much more
@JaybillsGames @DrMarioishere And sure opinions can change. People can even prefer the new one.
But I’ve never seen opinions change so drastically that half the fandom is bashing designs they loved a few months ago.
And even worse, I’ve never seen any fandom insult the original character designs.
@JaybillsGames @DrMarioishere But the edit is done in the new art style. Idk how you could call it terrible.
And sure opinions change, but I’ve never seen a fandom attack the original character designs. That just feels like people trying to convince themselves.
@JaybillsGames Normally I wouldn’t even bother commenting on something like this, but I’m friendly with the person who made the edit and he worked hard on it.
I honestly don’t get how anyone could like Crash’s original design and then call this terrible? I vastly prefer it.
@JaybillsGames This post bothers me a lot. I’ve chatted with the guy who made the edit and he’s really nice. There’s no need to trash someone’s work just to defend this design
To call it terrible? Really? It’s very high quality for a fan edit and it looks more like Crash than the actual design
