ghhhhhh.
So.
I just found Skylanders.
i have spent the last four hours playing Spyro 3 again because, in my opinion, it was one of the best PS1 games ever made. Then, I decide "hey, let's go see if they're following up Legend of Spyro." Note that I am a huge advocate of the PS1 series, and I was therefore more or less guaranteed to be setting myself up for disappointment.
but this.
This is a mockery of my childhood.
Spyro has been reduced to a GIMMICK TO SELL TOYS.
WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS THE UTTER DISGUST I FEEL AT THIS DISCOVERY. HE ISN'T EVEN A FUCKING MAIN CHARACTER. YOU CAN PLAY THE WHOLE FUCKING GAME WITHOUT SO MUCH AS GLANCING AT SPYRO.
THEY NAMED IT "SPYRO'S ADVENTURE", AND HE'S A FUCKING EXTRA.
GAH.
GAAAAH! They reduced Spyro to THIS garbage?
I've never been so ragey over a game ever.
Feel like I have to point it out to you that this isn't a Spyro game. It's a Skylanders game, a new series. Spyro is just in it to reassure the executives. What I think they'll be doing, and I hope they are, is making these characters constant between games. For instance, let's say there are five of the games total. Let's say you have Spyro. Say he has four abilities - longer flight, fire breath, charge, dive attack. Presumably, you get upgrades to these abilities in each game, through achievements and higher scores and whatever. So say you have these five games.
First game - faster flight, electric breath, long jump charge, stronger dive attack.
Second game - further flight, frost breath, fast charge, quicker dive recovery
Third game - higher flight, magma breath, quick recovery charge, faster dive attack.
Fourth game - hover, stonegaze breath, stone cracking charge, dive from a hover
Fifth game - rocket flight, heal breath, friend-moving charge, rocket 'dive' attack.
You play the fifth game, get those abilities, and you can then use those abilities in the first game.
