They all seem to wear eyeglasses (not including the major bosses)

Anyone else notice this?

Childhood changed.

 

[Impeccable]

It is fun to beat up dweebs.

 

[Sullichin]

Probably because they're usually variations of a cortex scientist

It's harder to kill when your look into your victim's eyes.

 

[5taquitos]

Cause Crash is a rad dude and can't stand nerds.

 

[Kinsei]

They're lab assistants. The glasses are there to make them look more like a stereotypical nerd.

 

[SNURB]

Ahem, they're actually obj_motherfuckers.

 

[SictorVullivan]

You can see them as

clones being created/transported to different time zones in the secret warp room in Crash 3/Warped.

Really neat stuff.

I figured that was a Crash 3 only thing.

Spoiler

It seems that the assistants in Crash 1 and 2 were working for Brio. Since Brio isn't around in Crash 3 Cortex needed to make some robot assistants.

I continue to be mystified by what people consider spoilers nowadays.

Neat piece of info that is normally discovered on your own + N. Sane Trilogy coming out in a couple days is a slam dunk for spoiler bars imo.

 

[Nicky Ali]

Did you know that the Lab Assistants are listed as "obj_motherfucker" in the game data for Crash 3?

Yes, I'm being serious.

Knowing the origin story of Goomba-tier grunt enemies now prevents your enjoyment of a video game? Sure, whatever. I'll be sure to be careful about those animals inside the robots when Sonic Mania comes out. /s

They're actually robot lab assistants.

In the secret hub in Crash 3 you can see them being assembled.

 

[KeyBladerXIII]

They always creeped me out a little as a kid, especially their scream when you kill them. It's not the Wilhelm scream, it's the other stock scream sound.

I normally hate spoiler culture, but the dude just spoiler tagged the thing. Chill lol.

What I want to know is what's the lore behind the one that starts off as a frog, and needs to kiss crash in order to regain human form

Stealth probably. It'd be pretty easy to infiltrate a base if you were just a random frog.

Friday cant come soon enough.

I need to dive back into Crash.

 

[Nocturnowl]

Even the pharoah headdress dudes in warped had glasses...and flamethrowers.
Hang on, maybe they weren't of that era at all!

 

[Toxi]

I actually didn't notice this while playing Warped as a kid. That's hilarious.

Spoiler

I was a dumb kid.

I look forward to noticing this when I play through the trilogy for the first time next week.

Turned into a frog by the wizard one, that turns you into a frog.
