The PS1 version was a lot scarier because that secret was incredibly dark, everything was black. Also not having the screen scroll made it more suspenseful since you wouldn't know what came up next for the first few tries. That and the scrabs seem a lot more aggressive and quick in the original than they do here.

Also, they chased right after you on site straight away rather than just roar from the start. Plus, in this level the scrabs wouldn't stop chasing you if you miscalculated a leap and grabbed onto the opposite ledge. They would just jump over both gaps and wait for you to climb back up.

The old crab will never stop, it will camp if you hold on the ledge

This part is stressing nice job

These scrabs are kind of tame. They felt a lot more like a real predator, in a way they walk and behave and react to you. In fact, you could not even drop in front of them because they would kill you as soon as you land. You would usually have to jump to get some distance and head start because they would start chasing you as soon as you landed.

Makes sense though since they're extremely ferocious when something is in their territory, to the point where fleeches keep their distance.

I generally like the original's scrabs better, mostly because of their sound design, each sound they made was very clear and distinct. The remake has their sounds quieter and not as original. But there is one small thing that makes new scrabs scarier than the originals. In the old game, scrabs ran at the same speed as Abe - but in the remake, their speed is slightly higher than Abe's. It might be more difficult to notice, but once you do you can't go back. Scrabs are faster than you.

There was a part right after that where a slig would be on watch and you had no way of getting across. The only way I found was by glitching the game and having Abe switch panels at the same time as the slig. And then you had to deal with the sleeping slig on the top floor.

The problem with the original was having to save a group of Mudokons one at a time and no Quiksave. I'm glad they finally included the 'All O' Ya' command and Quiksave here. Made the game much more tolerable.

you got a new subscriber today. i always loved running away from them as a kid

The original's version of this blows the new one out of the water with the stress for a few reasons. 1.) As soon as you jumped down, that Scrab was on you, no howling first. 2.) Side scrolling. Couldn't see what was ahead. Didn't help that all you could see was the silhouettes. 3.) There was no call all command. So you had to do this more than once. 4.) No frequent checkpoints. It was a all in one type thing. Couldn't quick save like you could in the sequel.

I remember the original had so many glitches. As A kid id just see what would happen if I ran directly towards an enemy or if I just kept saying hello. Sometimes you could just wait for the sligs to cross pannels and switch at the same time and they wouldn’t notice. I once ran and jumped past a slingshot whistler and made it without doing the whistle. As soon as I went back I died tho.

It's possible for this scrab in this secret area to fail to miss a jump across one of the gaps and fall to it's death. I only know this because I died to it so many times. Divine intervention I guess.

Man they got everything right about a modern scrab...Except for their vocals. The old school scrabs fucking SCREECHED. These just do a strangely quiet roar. But they fucking nailed them being able to catch up to you. In the old oddworld, They had the same sprint speed as abe. Definitely adds a threat factor.

The original Scrabs are faster, scarier,and of course,see you from far away and in an unexpected way

I miss the original scrab sound

I think the PS1's version is much more terrifying just because you're playing on a black sillouette of Abe and the Scrab. When you first encounter the scrabs, they're dark outlines of themselves; and the screech sinks more that they're not kind creatures. New and Tasty makes Scrabs far more threatening with them actually able to outrun you if you're not careful. While we get to see what the scrab looks like with different lighting.. the chase is much more tense.
