What if Cynder was in this game?

I mean, the only other dragons Spyro's size were Ember and Flame. Since Cynder is now well respected, I'm just wondering what would have happened if Cynder existed in this game.

I'm thinking it could be one of these:
- Cynder VS Ember (for some random parts of the game)
- Cynder is a boss that becomes your part-time ally when you defeat her.
- Cynder is one of those annoying allies, but one of the less annoying characters in general and not lovestruck like Ember.
- Cynder can be a second player.
- Malefor-focused cliffhanger story, even though the series would be focused as a platformer.

I don't know, so much can happen!

In defense of this game, it wasn't meant to be a character-driven story about a bunch of different young dragons. That's why there were only two that didn't have much personality: they were background characters. I guess you could force Cynder into the story if you wanted to, but she'd have to be the same way, and it would be pointless to do that just for the sake of it.

The Cynder-vs-Ember thing was pretty overdone by the fans, as well. I was sick of seeing that cliche years ago. I feel like if you wanted to make Cynder and Ember more interesting, there's a lot you could do with them besides making them fight over the main character or some similar scenario.

As for Malefor, he just really wouldn't fit in anywhere in the original Spyro universe.

Well, all of those were just little thoughts, but yeah...

Well, I'm thinking that Cynder would have made more appearances, would have caused Ember and Flame to come in at one point BECAUSE of her frequent appearances...maybe getting a bit of a Sonic Heroes mechanics in there...

Wow. We really need another Spyro game.

that has potential, but again, i just don't see it working in AHT.

yeah, i'm definitely not a big fan of this game. hmm i like your ideas though.

i think Ember and Cynder would work far better as friends than rivals, because the whole rivals things has been done to death. Embers quirky personality would balances Cynders personality nicely imo.
