GNASTY GNORC!!!!!

This is the most stupid boss ever!!! I've just spent the last 3 days playing spyro to come up against this pile of crap?

You have to chase 2 thiefs??? Why not  a really hard one that will put up more of a challenge instead of 2 wastes of time?

As soon as I finally got the second key, I got my chance to destroy gnasty gnorc. I was excited, estatic. Spyro is an amazing game and I honestly thought the final boss would be legendary but what did I get? Yet another stupid chase over high drops and easy falls. When the *bleep* gnorc thing stopped, I was ready to give it the beating of a lifetime but what can you do? press circle once and he runs into this stupidly hard lava level which has no point except to ruin all your hard work.

So, it's incredibly easy to die so when I did the first time I thought to myself, Okay, surley the games creators wouldn't be that low to make me start all over again. Guess what? they are! I have to do all that hard work again and again.

I've completely given up on spyro now and I'm never going to play the load of crap ever again, this is the worst boss ever!

To give up on Spyro because of Gnasty Gnorc is like giving up on Star Wars because of Mark Hamill's bad acting.

Yo, Spyro
I'm really happy for you, but Jazz Jackrabbit is one of the best platformers of all time.

Re: GNASTY GNORC!!!!!

I never really minded Gnasty Gnorc being an easy boss.
The rest of the game made up for it big_smile

Re: GNASTY GNORC!!!!!

I wonder if all the bosses were like metalhead or grendor(season of ice), they would've been more acceptable?

Re: GNASTY GNORC!!!!!

Metalhead is fun. i personally am satisfied with the bosses in the game (except maybe Gnasty) but i would definitely like more creative boss "fights" like Metalhead

Re: GNASTY GNORC!!!!!

Yeah, Metalhead was fun and cool too, being big and menacing, shooting electricity. For me he was the hardest aside from Dr. Shemp. What annoys me about Gnasty is that he takes less hits than the thieve gnorcs in Artisan.

Re: GNASTY GNORC!!!!!

the things that make Gnasty Gnorc hard are things that *aren't him*, which isn't good. you have such a short timeframe to hit him the first time. i've messed up more than once on that.

it's not hard now, but when i was younger, i had a lot of problems with the shrinking platforms, too.

Re: GNASTY GNORC!!!!!

Now I'm wondering why they made some of the changes they did.

The superflame was a cool idea, but since you really can't miss it once you get to the area with Gnasty, it serves no purpose other than to break that chest, so I guess that was why they got rid of it. It could have been an interesting challenge to have to go and find that fairy somewhere and rescue her in order to get that powerup and damage Gnasty. Giving Gnasty some more armor might have made it obvious that he couldn't be charged or flamed normally.

I don't know why they would remove those platforms, though. Doesn't look like they add or detract anything from the level.

Unrelated comment: From reading the captions, I guessed about halfway through that the owner of this video was LXShadow and had to go to Youtube to see if I was right. tongue
