When will spyro be GOOD again

T3h0v4llu · Apr 04, 2009 8:03 PM

I was actually fine with the way where ANB and TEN were going! I hated them both until i tried DotD. I think the design of Spyro was good in those games, even beats the old Spyro's look if we would compare em now (ANB&TEN spyro has more details n stuff obviously because technology has improved).

I know that last part of my last sentence but i had to specify what why i liked the design.

They'll make a good Spyro game once all of these fanboys and fangirls quit talking about Spyro and Cynder's "relationship". No one CARES!!! It's a game, not real people! GET OVER IT! THEY DIED!!!GAME OVER!!! Bring back the REAL Legendary Dragon (and the REAL Legendary Developers).

Oh joy, caps lock and exclamation point spam.
Your "Legendary Developers" have turned their backs on Spyro, probably forever. The possibility of there return is about as likely as winning the lottery twice in the span of two minutes. I suggest calming down a bit before posting, as in your anger you're going to end up looking worse than the people you keep complaining about.

It'd also be nice if you recognized that not everyone who likes TLOS falls into that category.

T3h0v4llu, hopefully the improved technology means they will create a game that both looks amazing yet is still lengthy/has lots of collectables (well, in addition to the other things that make a game good). At least they can't use the "we ran out of space" excuse anymore.

They have the chance to make a very very good game now that all of this is out of the way. I'm hoping that the extra down time caused by this movie will help push them into making a game that's worthy of being called a Spyro title.

We can only hope anyways, but if I was certainly in charge I would be looking for ways to build upon what has already been....after all they really have nowhere to go but up. Try being proud of the work you are creating...it usually works....

But that's just me...

I'm sure the next game/trilogy will be good.
Thats just an opinion.
BTW, when someone doesnt like tlos it doesnt mean he is a "TLoS hater".
If a person thinks that the game generally SUCKS , it doesnt mean that he is a "TLoS hater". And i do know what you mean with "TLoS hater". Yeah and im assuming youre talking about DotD so im going to say that it had 58 metascore.

Hater used in it's commom use easily would describe somebody who doesn't like the tLoS... I am tired of arguing the LoS v. Orig.

Rhetorical questions are greatly over argued...

Anyhow tLoS wins anyhow because nobody who makes the games has an argument not in favor of it... There is no point

I think it's just going to wade in mediocrity for as long as the people involved can count on the fans to throw their cash in.

Cadc · Jul 24, 2009 8:51 AM

I don't believe it was mediocre, I believe it was a very fun game, that yes, could have been better, but it was very good non the less

Kipeci · Jul 24, 2009 10:45 AM

Really?
Well, I have this little thing called an opinion. This opinion is of the mind that the game was mediocre.

Cadc · Jul 24, 2009 2:17 PM

really?

am I not entitled to my own opinion as well?

(seems a very popular response amongst Dotd haters :*bleep*in: )

Kipeci · Jul 24, 2009 4:47 PM

Sure you are, don't shove it down my throat.

RedDragonX · Jul 24, 2009 6:03 PM

Both of you shut it. How about we don't antagonize each other about presenting opinions? That usually does work. Everyone can have an opinion but don't direct them in a manner that is purely meant to be a flame or topics shall be locked and users warned.

Sora · Aug 23, 2009 5:12 AM

Never. Insomniac moved onto a character who could hold a gun. We should have noticed the foreshadowing that came with a playable character who only uses guns and grenades...

Buster Dragon · Sep 19, 2009 4:39 AM

The new series is better hands down. We actually have a decent story and many power sways. (Power sways as in good guys winning, bad guys winning)
The enermies, are stronger the HP of a old series boss is that of a normal enermy now.
Hunter was more annoying in the old series, I actually found him to be highly stupid... You would be highly into a level, have serious mode on and then Hunter turns up and makes a complete serious situation into a hunt for some item or a egg... NOW Hunter is a lot more down to business and more down to Earth for that matter.

The only old game I truely liked was YOTD (Year Of The Dragon) for the PS1 and that was mainly because of the game time, took a long time to get everything done.
One of the worst by far has to be HT (Heroes Tale) The voice acting, exscuse my language... sucked.

The only fault I find in the new games is the game lenghs, and this time they really gave you the feeling you was with Spyro every step of the way while he was growing up, they made suttle changes in DOTD compared to TNB and TEN, well I noticed a very small difference in TEN but the main differences can be seen in DOTD. The free fly, is one of the best things they added, it was long over-due in my mind.

Lets face it, Spyro looks a LOT better now, look in DOTD he actually is bigger, has bigger wings and the voice, a tiny bit deeper then what it was the other two. The double player advanture mode, was actually unexpected to me, it's something that isn't found in many games but yet turned up in a Spyro game, which was a great and welcomed suprise.

So, to answer the question "When will they bring out a GOOD Spyro game?"... The answer is, just go down to your game store and look at ANY of the latest three Spyro games for the major consoles, which would be TNB, TEN and the truely awesome DOTD.

The only decent old one was YOTD and MAYBE HT, but the one hit KO on the enermies was borring after the first game.

The old ones were ALRIGHT for their time and did what they were suposed to do, get people hooked for the more complex games of today.

Their done and gone, enough said.

The new Spyro has more to offer then ANY old one could.

Finally, someone gets it. Thank you for the true facts that DotD is better than all of the old Spyro games put together. Those first spyro games weren't games, they were money wasters. I actually own Spyro YOTD and I am thinking about selling it for just 5 cents. smile

Well, some people are just to ignorant to appreciate a upgrade.
As I said, to me the first series just seemed like they were there to just make him popular and known.

YOTD... 5 cents!? Wow, over here I could sell it for about £5 if I wanted to, saying that... It's hard to find over here, unless you emulate.

Theres a ton of other facts about DOTD that make it better hands down, I just placed a few of the ones that are more noticeable in game.

Chapter selection mode... Awesome.

grievous16 · Sep 21, 2009 7:48 PM

I am actually thinking of selling my YOTD game........ for free! smile I hope we have a sale soon because this game has got to go. *searches for YOTD game* smile

Rurikredwolf · Sep 21, 2009 9:26 PM

^disagree becuase DotD ruined the LoS trilogy by screwing up the plot and characters. (Since WHEN is Volteer silent!?). The combat system is copied from God of War. Hell, the Golem IS THE SAME EXACT THING AS THE FIRST BOSS OF GOD OF WAR 2. Malefor=Mundus from Devil May Cry. The whole plot is actually LotR with dragons. (Dotd: seige of warfang. HMM, HAVEN'T WE SEEN THAT SOMEWHERE!?) Graphics are a 'meh' for me. (When hunter shoots an arrow, it doesn't follow the proper way it should have shot. It looks like it was just levitated upwards.)

I could go on but I have to go to the gym.

grievous16 · Sep 23, 2009 11:03 PM

I actually prefered Volteer to be silent. He was annoying in the previous 2 games.

Irregardless it still completely alters the persona of a character, someone who actually cares about the story at hand doesn't do something like that. All it shows is inability to continue developing characters.

Rurikredwolf · Sep 24, 2009 8:10 PM

My other points still stand

Cynder7 · Oct 15, 2009 6:19 PM

I'm hoping it will... >.<
With nice big levels and a bit more difficulty..
Do you think Spyro will be a little kid again,teen or now adult? hmm

S240sx24 · Oct 15, 2009 7:09 PM

I hope they keep teen spyro. like Dotd but who knows.

Aura24 · Oct 16, 2009 6:07 AM

If they're going to keep teen spyro, at least they could do is add little spyro as a cameo in the game or an unlockable.

S240sx24 · Oct 16, 2009 6:12 AM

Yeah little spyro as a unlockable be cool. i like little spyro from Dotd though thats my take lol.

TornWings · Oct 17, 2009 5:51 PM

The story just gave up and started hitting all the old cliches in the third game. Normally I don't mind them, but in doing so they abandoned the storyline that had been 2 games in the making.

Why is Malefor trying to destroy the world instead of rule it now? Where did the moles come from, and why didn't anyone mention there was a city the dragons could have run to in the first place? "The shattered vale" mentioned in the second game is never mentioned again or explained, why?

Also, why has the world been so thoroughly changed that we don't see ANYTHING from the first two games (look at the map and look down during the floating isles mission, does any of it look familiar? They specifically mention islands and a mainland in the first two games, but now it's all 1 big landmass?)
Why are the fury attacks now generic instead of element specific? Why does no one worry when they're using fury, considering it looks just the the dark power DS was using at the end of the second game? And they don't even try to explain any of this? The whole justification that had for Cynder's jewelry was rather weak, but at least it was an explanation (and it's not even that important compared to the stuff I just mentioned).

Mind you, I like LoS, but the series has its problems, and if we don't point them out the developers will continue to make the same mistakes.
