Which designs do you love?

Which ones do you hate?

I for one like most of the new dragon designs, but don't like what they did with Handel and Greta or the baby dragons in YOTD.

I thought almost all of them were really good. Bianca, Hunter, and Elora especially. I didn't like Sheila's hair at first, but I grew to like it.

The creativity on the Spyro 1 dragons was excellent. I wish they had had time to do the same for the baby dragons, but it's understandable they couldn't when there were 150 of them and the game was already rushed.

Sheila had... horns? Huh.

Totally agree about Mr. Bones; that was pretty cringy. The old dance and song would have been just fine.

Yeah.

I don't like it, but I can see why TFB would change Mr. Bones' dance. Some sort of attempt to appeal to younger kids, I guess. Which is fair.

It took me a while to actually like the new character designs, especially Elora. I don't know, for some reason at first, I preferred the original designs, but after playing for a couple hours I started to like them. I'm still not a big fan of Sheila's hair, but that doesn't take away any enjoyment for the games. I wonder if one day, in the future, they will remake other Spyro games, like A Hero's Tail, or maybe even the Legend of Spyro series.

The first thing I noticed when Bianca appeared was "why the hell are her robe's sleeves longer than her hands now." Typically this trope is used to show a character is clumsy or quirky or something, basically not the kind of person Bianca is. Yet here we are! Bianca is a prime example of what happens if you change a character's delivery without changing anything they say and the cautionary tale behind it. Not that it'll become apparent unless you put both Biancas side by side and see how much more threatening and confident the Original was.

Ahem, you know what makes the whole "we're so used to the old voice acting" thing a lot more prevalent? The Professor. He sounded just the same as his original self, which gives that contrast to everyone else. You know what else sounded so drastically different? Hunter. Feels like he's all about the "cool" and the voice reflects that, rather than just "Goofy the Cheetah."

At this point, I might as well list how I feel about every character individually, because why not. Who's up for that?
