Uhhh just beat enough levels and you can save? What's the problem?

you probably look at more crash discussions online because you're a crash fan, and thus see more people complaining about the games

1's save system is fine, it's 2 that has the stupid shit where you need to pay to save
in lockjaw's saga you can farm coins really fast but you shouldn't have to grind to save

You beat most of a world and are rewarded a save before the boss. There's nothing weird about it.
Crash requires you do to something weird like find all the collectibles in a stage.

You shouldn't have to grind to save, you're right. Lmao.

In DKC, you have to beat an entire world worth of levels in between saves (latter half of first world and former half of second world, so one full world basically), and you have very limited opportunities to earn lives. Game over mean all that progress (6+ stages) lost.

Crash gives you saves almost every other level as well as ample lives and easy farming for more lives. The only requirement is finding the three crates for the bonus stage, (almost none of which are particularly hidden) encouraging you to actually explore and engage with the level. Even if you do miss one, the presence of even a single bonux box clues you in, and you can just replay the level being more thorough.

>but this gets a pass
It really doesn't most people agree that it kinda sucks and that there's some levels that are kinda bullshit
Still a great game though one of my favorites

I hate all the stupid minigames to earn lives in DKC, it kills the flow and pacing. In Crash you just destroy boxes along the way while exploring the level, it feels much more seamless.

now that you guys reminded me of how things used to work in videogames I just realized that I hated them and I only thought I liked them because of what they could have been.

>oh no I have to play through 20 minutes of levels before I can save
>the horror
skill issue
