Yeah... I don't see how this is going to work, although that would be awesome.

Well I'm sure Hunter will explain everything I hope.

Yea, just like he explained how to glide, walk, talk, save, and other stuff that everybody knows before they play the games...

I wonder what kind of personality Hunter will have in DotD.

Hey guys, even though Shadow was "created" 50 years ago he coincidentally looks like Sonic and we made him a hedgehog for some reason. Also, you can apparently clone robots from an original source as seen in Sonic Heroes!!!

Granted, there's no need to question a storyline when the game's already purposely bizarre anyway, or there's no need to question in-gameplay stuff. (Like how enemies vanish when you defeat them.) But when a storyline's trying to be serious business, things like that are just shoddy.

That's a question that no one will know but Netoguy is right it does take 3 years later and how Spyro and Cynder and Sparx matured that is one of the many Video Game Mystery's that will never be solved goodbye.

Yay! Someone else agrees with me!

Your being literal again... The game starts 3 years after they are trapped... Now it would be a pretty bad game if it started about 2 months before they were release.

What? Do you know what literal means because I don't see how I was being too literal again? I simply took your dare and did it.
Starting a game 2 months before they were released wouldn't make any sense. They'll still be trapped.
I don't even know what you're trying to say in the next statement ...

Look, it said the game took place right when hunter finds them, so the game will start just before they get released, and since the game also starts 3 years since they were trapped, then that means that they have been trapped in the crystal for 3 years. I'm sorry you don't understand that.

Dang. I almost thought you had it ...
Your first part is possibly right ...
Next part is possibly right ...
And then you're wrong.
If they're released right when Hunter finds them, then how could they be trapped for 3 years? I don't think Hunter would just stand there by the crystal for 3 years waiting and watching.

"Three years have passed since they were trapped."
That pretty much means that three years ago, they were trapped. And sometime later, they were freed. But we still don't know exactly how long they've been trapped. Not 3 years, I can tell you that.

There you go. Didn't use either of those words.
All this made me sleepy though, so I'm off to bed now.

Well if you could find me that sentence that would be great. But that doesn't make both sentences true since they hold different meanings.
Lol, you really thought I was new to English? Silly. :-P
And like you said - don't be so literal.
