That's because it is wrong.

They claimed they tried to "make it... as faithful to the original games as possible." I feel they failed miserably. I'm hoping now that we have this PC version, some modders can fix the game so it works as it should.

Interesting to note that jumping actually feels heavier in Crash 1 than 2 & 3.
Really noticeable when you're jumping on crates.

It is wrong. I've played the ps1 version many times throughout my life but in this game, I fell and died a lot even to simplest pitfall.

Interestingly, while sliding off edges is more common to due to the pill-shaped hitbox, it actually allows for longer jumps if you time it right, making some bits easier.

It's not wrong, it's different. It's no secret that it is not the same.

It got me a few times at first on PS4 but I got used to it eventually.

[Millennial_KiwiGamer]

im glad its not just me

It's because they based ALL the games on the pre-powerup Crash 3 physics. Crash 3 is OK once you unlocks the powerups, Crash 2 is a little annoying (body slam is slower, etc) but Crash 1 comes out the worst since the altered jump timings from Crash 2/3 are quite different than in Crash 1.

get over it. the game is still easy if you're good. stop making excuses.

So ...people will find something to complain about in a port that runs on 60fps on 4k and its slightly different jumping that takes 10 minutes to get used to ? Huh

[SteelPH]

git gud

[TheDeskAgentTTV]

If people complain this much whjy even buy it? I played the originals for hours on end in my childhood, and this is as fun as the originals. I havent had any issues with dying from "short jumps"

By all means this was a complaint in the original PS4 release too. In the original PS1 games, jumping in Crash 1 is different to jumping in Crash 2&3. In the remake, the jumping in Crash 1, 2 & 3 is based on Crash 3 physics. So it's mainly from people who mastered Crash 1 who are now being thrown by the new jumping style in stages they previously mastered well (see stages like Road To Nowhere, Slippery Climb).

i played crash 2 and 3 so many times as a kid that ive got it all memorized from gem/secret locations to how to jump over certain gaps with slide/slide spin jumps.... crash 2 has been wrecking me (slightly) in regards to how the sliding works in this game, it feels WAY more off than regular jumping imo (even though that still feels wrong as well) im still breezing through it like i would normally but still, its a little offputting

crash 1 i only played once as a kid so i dont really remembered much from it, so i didnt feel like i had a hard time with that at all (beat the high road with only 2 lives lost for my first attempt and the gem)

[Tickleshit]

the jumping actually feels the exact same to me. i used to play these games religiously when i was like 10.
