Razz's Thoughts

Dude! C-teck! I do remember you! smile

I feel more vindicated that my crazy theories about the dragons' world were proved. SxC was pretty obvious from the start.

I'm getting a bit sick of this statement, it's kind of telling me and LOTS of other people, including my friends, that we are blind if we don't see it because gosh it's soooo obvious.
Whether they intended it or not doesn't mean it's obvious, it's all on how they execute it and to me they executed it quite poorly because ANB planted the thought of the possibility of them being related in most people's heads. I don't want to hear "that's crazy! THEY'RE NOT RELATED" because it doesn't matter, they didn't think ahead of time to realize what some of their lines might be saying to the audience. There are review sites that call Cynder "his sister" by mistake, there were lots of discussions taking place around ANB's release on the issue of their relation, lots of my friends got the impression that they were siblings, (In fact lots of my friends are still in this train of thought after seeing Dawn of the Dragon's ending and think they're pulling a Lion King on us) my younger cousin who was 9 when she played ANB thought they were brother and sister too. In fact, it was so bad that even the people in charge of the GBA game thought they were siblings.
Are they all blind? Or maybe it's just because they don't look for the romance and instead decide to overestimate the clichéd story and think differently?
Honestly, the last scene in ANB isn't a hint if you're not looking at them romantically. Removing the fact that I thought they were siblings at the time, I don't see "the last scene in ANB" as an implication of romance, I just see the fact that "Cynder is the girl and Spyro is the boy" as the hint. Then after that is in mind, EVERYTHING is a hint.

I guess I am blind, because I didn't see ANY hints in ANB.
I only saw the one (two?) in TEN: At the end when Gaul uses the word amity (though that STILL only means friendship) and in the beginning when Spyro said that he didn't want Cynder to go. (yet again, would you want a friend to runaway? Doesn't nesecarily means love.)

But I was really excited for DotD to see if once and for all, they were cannon, and when I saw the end, I nearly broke the case in two because I was holding it so hard due to my excitement. XD

Am I the only SxC fan who is actually indefferient on this matter?

Godzilla750 · Oct 26, 2008 9:48 PM

i agree and they have no physical similarities at all.

CynderRules · Oct 26, 2008 9:50 PM

oh, and Razz, could you please give me the cheats for the game?

Razz · Oct 26, 2008 9:51 PM

I'm not sure how to type them up. I got them out of my strategy guide. If you get a chance, I'd recommend buying the guide. Or taking a notebook to GameStop and writing them down. They're in the back. big_smile

Rurikredwolf · Oct 26, 2008 9:53 PM

People who don't like SxC can have their own opinions just as you can. Talking about their opinions doesn't make them "jerks".

meh I've NEVER bought the guide for any game. I just search for what I want online. XD

Rurikredwolf · Oct 26, 2008 9:57 PM

Only games I buy a guide for are Zelda games or something redicuously hard.

True, but I was aiming more towards the ones that want to deny facts as opposed to stating opinions.

??????????????????????????????????????????????????

Razz · Oct 26, 2008 10:15 PM

I buy the strategy guides for art reference, but I did get a lot of use out of the DotD one because I got frustrated at times and was glad to have the solution on hand.

Rurikredwolf · Oct 26, 2008 10:17 PM

I had to figure out the entire game myself >.> One part I was stuck for an hour, then I realized that Cynder could go underground with her shadow thing. It was like a slap to the face for me...

Sorry that this is from the 2nd page of the thread, but I HAD to reply to it:

I really agree with you! I never really saw them as siblings, but nothing very romantic. Ofcourse, i had the GBA version of ANB, which doesnt tell you much. But ANYWAY, I got the gamecube version soon after smile even then I didnt see anything. I just saw Cynder as someone Spyro ended up saving. I always thought she was going to die anyway when you had to fight her XD And then she turned all little and cute and I was like...awwww, poor Cynder XD anyhoo, in the beginning of TEN, there was nothing really romantic going on. Spyro cared about Cynder more as a friend, although not a sister, the accounting to the way she always pushed him away. The one thing that got me started on SxC was the random thought of it popping into my head XD and then, like you said, everything is a clue XD

Razz · Oct 26, 2008 10:45 PM

I really had always seen them as friends for most of the series since they're both too young to be romantic. But I knew they would wind up together by the end. All the signs were there.

Godzilla750 · Oct 26, 2008 11:06 PM

true. i guess im not the only one who saw it during the sibling chaos

Rurikredwolf · Oct 26, 2008 11:22 PM

I agree with the 'bound to happen'. But seriously...the happy ending kinda made me go 'Fantastic...' in a sarcastic way.

Razz · Oct 26, 2008 11:23 PM

I thought it was really wonderful and beautiful. I almost cried.

Rurikredwolf · Oct 26, 2008 11:26 PM

I never said I didn't like it. It was just like 'now what'?

Godzilla750 · Oct 26, 2008 11:28 PM

im with razz on that

TornWings · Oct 26, 2008 11:55 PM

I was stunned as I watched the credits roll...

But afterwards I danced around the house (ending up hurting myself XD)

Rurikredwolf · Oct 26, 2008 11:57 PM

Stunned in a good way...or what? tongue
