Seven Environments (yay or nay)

O.K., so I read at gamespot that this game is going to have seven element themed environments.  This could either be a good thing or very bad.  Gamespot wasn't really descriptive as to what an 'environment' is.  If each environment is a huge, open ended world like in AHT, this game will be awesome smile .  If an environment is a short, lousy level like in ETD, this game will seem well.....short and lousy sad .  Or, there is always the unlikely possibility that the game has seven worlds with the return of portals big_smile !  What do you guys think?

Re: Seven Environments (yay or nay)

I hope it's 7 worlds with different portals! That would make it a long and challenging game. If it's just 7 portals... that would suck.

BTW, what's ANH? Do you mean AHT (A Hero's Tail)?

Re: Seven Environments (yay or nay)

The elemental thing is in every video game. Sigh...This is why i miss the creativeness of spyro one. Everything was based on the residents of the area and where they might live, not on water or earth or snow or lava or something else as uncreative. Spyro 1 was the most well thought out in terms of levels and worlds. I miss the portals. They made it feel more like there was magic in spyro's world (that sounded reallly dumb to type).


Just know that whatever happens to us...It wasn't my fault.

Re: Seven Environments (yay or nay)

I like the portals too. I agree with you, Spyro 1 had by far the most creative levels. If they have more worlds the game will be funner. Unlike AHT. That game had just a few levels and no portals. I don't think they will acually have portals though. It looks a lot like Shadow Legacy.

Re: Seven Environments (yay or nay)

Exactly. I liked the portals a lot better than just walking around the homeworld and happening to come across a new level. The portals made it more organized.

Re: Seven Environments (yay or nay)

I'm not sure why Vu decided to get rid of portals. it made the game too complicated in terms of getting from world to world when in previous games it was as simple as stepping through a portal. The ball gadget--what on earth?-- why can't spyro just get there by a normal aircraft or portal? If it's not broken, VU, don't fix it.

The Ball Gadget. Come on. Just use portals instead if inventing a stupid way of traveling. :roll: I wish VU games could see our suggestions... sad

Re: Seven Environments (yay or nay)

yeah. the ball gadget sucked...ah, you know. It didn't contribute to gameplay much and it cost too much to use. You had to do so much just to enter another level that didn't even directly lead to a hub world instead. In the trilogy, all you had to do was walk into an open portal--no light gems, no racing in a giant super monkey ball, just walk into a portal.

Re: Seven Environments (yay or nay)

I agree wif u 100%.  BRING BACK PORTALS!  They are the most logical, and efficient way to travel throughout the dragon realms.  Oh, I got good news for u, Spyro does fly in this game  big_smile .

Re: Seven Environments (yay or nay)

I know this topic is old but yeah, Portal rule, i wish they were back, level after level well is... boring and only 7 worlds is... short... and the fact the levels are so repetetive, long and are based on the elementels well.... just unimmaginative.
The levels in ANB dont appeal to me
