The point of his character arch is to transform from a selfish and easily irritated tough guy with an edge to someone who takes responsibility and also thinks about other. In other words Ratchet (and also Clank, in his own way) have a great path to redemption. In the remake they are these blank cuddly vehicules and look like they were only designed to sell toys and other merch to children. It doesn't make him a tolerable or likeable character at all, though, especially when he'd prioritize revenge over millions of people and their home planets. I get that's the point, that he's supposed to be selfish, but it makes it harder for me to enjoy the game personally because it just feels... forced and unreasonable to the extreme. It's just not well written at all, so their "great path to redemption" is only so "great" because Insomniac wrote Ratchet too selfish and unlikable. Now obviously they didn't need to dial it back nearly as much as they did with the reimagining, but it still wasn't up to Insomniac in the end. Agree to disagree about how they look, though, as I prefer their designs now. (Well, I actually prefer how Ratchet looks in the movie, but eh) Either way, 2016 has the better gameplay, the original has the better story. The story in both, however, is mediocre and uninteresting compared to later games regardless. Edited March 8, 2021 by Zephrese 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on what people are looking for. I prefer the graphics of the original game, believe it or not. It has smooth 60fps gameplay and still plays really well and precise. The remake is 30fps and has excessive motion blur to disguise the low framerate. It's just ugly, and now even more than 5 years ago. It looks great if you want to take screenshots though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, the original game still feels slow even with the higher frame rate to me, and it controls rather poorly at times. (i.e Ratchet doesn't turn on a dime like in later games) I vastly prefer the faster-paced gameplay of Going Commando onwards, including with the reimagining itself despite the lower frame rate that the game has. Like I said, it's entirely subjective. Edited March 8, 2021 by Zephrese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thread closed. I don't like multiplayer games so having plus would be a waste of money. Besides the "free" plus games are not really free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveMcDamage Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Glad I got this freebie and even more glad I saved it to play until now. Been playing a lot more serious themed games lately so the light hearted feel and comedy value is much appreciated. Decent little platformer too, though I may have to switch the controls around as the aiming will sometimes fire on the guy in front but then randomly switch and start shooting no where.

I just missed out on a 15% reduction email voucher and mine runs out in June. But the way I look at it is £50 gets me cloud save space for my save files and that alone is worth it for myself. Not to mention extra sales reductions and the free games (yes they are free for us) they have been handing out these past 5 months alone has been incredible. When I was a much younger gamer you could subscribe to a game magazine for around £30 a year, maybe more depending on the mag. And for that you got delayed news, the odd demo and that was it. Even before the net, word got around quicker than what the magazine were putting out. So for £50 for one years PS+ I have received peace of mind with the cloud save system, and probably around £300 worths of full games and indie titles, if not more. The subscription fee is just for the PS+ subscription and I think thats what people forget. Everything after that is indeed free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
