And the best part about this game? You get to be dragons! Duh!

The lack of humour and the fact that Spyro has become a boring generic hero in this game is sad.

You have to remember that TLoS Spyro isn't that Mohawk cocky Spyro that we saw from the PS1 era. They wanted to shape him as a hero from the beginning, hence the subtle humor (I can only think of the Floating Islands intro as the only humorous one).

Shaping a character that people liked the way they were into a serious and shy (and badly voice acted) character does not bode well for fans of said original character. I liked the original Spyro much better, because his personality was relatable, and matched the game's tone well. Also, the structure of your sentence confuses me. We do remember that TLoS Spyro is not the "Mohawk cocky Spyro," however, even if someone did not, they wouldn't say "oh, now I like this character because I know that it isn't the same." I dunno. I'm feeling nitpicky.

I played DotD on PS2 and on PS3. Graphic on PS3 is much better than on PS2 but it's not such a big deal.
Things I like-The whooole story, it was really interesting for me. The graphic. You could play as Spyro and Cynder. Being able to play with other person. How the levels were made(I mean the designs, they were really beautiful). The ending, I really liked making rest of story of Cynder and Spyro with my sister :3 But still I would really like to know what would officialy happen x.x
Things I didn't like-Some levels were very long. On some levels when I finnaly killed all the enemies I didn't know where to go to get to next level xD Checkpoints. What else... Oh yeah, thing that was a bit irritating for me was that, that in Eternal Night and New Beggining Cynder was black/dark gray and in DotD she magically turned dark purple(or her colour is just changing while she's growing o3o). There's more things I like and don't like but don't have I time to write now x.x

welcome to the site!

the graphics were beautiful! ^^ but yeah, why is Cynder purple?!

and i agree, some levels were too long, like the Ruins of Warfang. Twilight Falls should have been longer. ^^

i've never played this game with another person.

I've played through all the game on my PS2 with my sister (the "brilliant" sense of teamwork with your family xD) And i still can't find anything that might annoy me. I don't know why everybody hates their new designs. Actually i like them.

And because of this game's ending, whenever i hear "Guide You Home (I Would Die For You)" i cry like a beaver ;_;

Same here too, I did not find much to hate about them.

Likes
-Having the ability to fly any time
-Being able to play with a friend (I had a lot of good times playing with a friend)
-The levels in themselves were beautifully made, especially Avalar. The words just felt realistic to me.
-The soundtrack was also quite nice, even if some of the older sound scores were reused from the previous games.

Dislikes
When it comes to the Wii and the PS2 version of the game, the graphics were not that impressive. Everything seemed to have a hazy and glowing effect going on, and the valley of Avalar was rather blinding. I'm not sure if the game is the problem or something else, because on an emulator the graphics look 100x better.

I know realistically there will be currents in the air, but these wind currents take away the ability to fly freely in some areas.

I personally don't have an issue with Cynder's personality, but what bothers me sometime is sometimes during gameplay Cynder (or even Spyro) can get in the way or get stuck.

Minor detail, but I wish Spyro and Cynder had the ability to swim. lol

-----

I like their designs, but I do agree that Spyro is oddly built. I mean, his overall body seems fine to me, but his hind legs bother me. Even if we seem him moving around on the screen, it just seems like walking would be difficult.

The story is weak and cardboardish. They should have invested much more time in that, as in the other games they had that going for them.

The game tried to take itself too seriously. This got to the point that any sort of humor seemed outlandish.

One thing I can say for sure is I don't like the character designs... especially Spyro. I got used to his new look in the first two LoS games, but for this design I don't think I ever will. It's just anatomically weird, and something about his face is just... I don't know, very off-putting.
