i have to say, its really sad when Ignitus, Spyro and Cynder die tears came to my eyes, but when i the part at the end i was sooo relieved! gave me the fright of my life

I second that comment. smile

Thirded...

The ending was a bit cheesy with the whole "I love you" from Cynder though... They should have made it "I will always be with you" or something similiar, so it isn't so direct.

ratchet · Jul 15, 2009 2:28 PM

I was dissapointed actually.
1.Ignitus Dying:Not because I liked Ignitus, but because it was Completely Predicatble. The Old Wise teacher Dies ALL the time in Fiction stories.
2.Malefor: Not only was he as ugly as hell, Not spectacular, But he dies easily.
3.No Twist: Hated this. I mean, Malefor talks about how Purple dragons were "meant" to destroy the world. This is so obviously false as How the hell would he know this? And Ten generations, while seeming like a long time is only a few hundred, Thousand years at most. Not enough time for a new plannet to be made and get dangerous. I mean, I can understand If the Planet is overpopulted, Poluted and such, And is a threat to other planets. That might be a good reason to destroy it. But It isnt, Its Good. Why need to destroy it? And yeah, I think It was because Dumb Siera changed it from Taking over the world to destroying the world.
4.Weird Cliffhanger at the end: This was dumb. It turns out, that Ignitus and the chronicler are dead, but they move around like they are still alive. And they point ot that Spyro is still alive, cause hes not in that book. Then they show the 2 dragons flying. Ah, Yeah.....THey're still alive..... I mean, they cant be dead, Because they're not in the book. So whats the ending? Its NOT EVEN A CLIFFHANGER. Its just like "they're alive kids, YAY!"

grievous16 · Jul 15, 2009 5:33 PM

You obviously never watched a tragic movie or read a tragic story, because usually at the end, someone survives and it turns out to be the guy who everyone adores. Not that different in DotD. Watch a movie or two and you'll know what I mean. First time I actually met a guy who doesn't watch or never saw a tragic movie or story. (the reason I said 'guy' is because ratchet acted like a guy, dude please tell us if you are a guy or not <_< )

The average generation in the U.S. is twenty years.
The average generation in the U.K. is twenty-five years.

So a purple dragon is born once every two-hundred to two-hundred-and-fifty years.

But yes, I wasn't particularly thrilled with Dawn of the Dragon in any aspect. I prefer A New Beginning and The Eternal Night; at least they had some original ideas. The Night of Eternal Darkness and Dragon Time, to name a couple.

ratchet · Jul 17, 2009 3:30 PM

Im glad you agree with me, Blaze. And Grievous, the problem wasnt that Spyro survived. The problem was that there was no real plot twist at the end. No Cliffhanger either. They could of had something like Cynder turning on Spyro, or Ignitus decieving spyro, And he is the evil one instead. ANYTHING like that. but ofcource it was a generic "good beats evil" with nothing cool to finish the trilogy.

I mean, It could of been worse, I guess. But i think they could of put SOME effort into it.

~cornys~ · Jul 17, 2009 4:03 PM

Why does this surprise me that ratchet is on my side of this argument here? I liked the ending but it was way to predictable.... or then again.... it apparently wasn't beacuse ratchet was expecting a twist smile lol the twist of not having a twist!!!! yes!!! lol

but in all honestly I wanted Spyro to destroy the world and Cynder to kill both Spyro and Malefor.... how'd that be for a twist? hehehehe... lol

grievous16 · Jul 17, 2009 7:54 PM

Those last moments of the game would tell if they were to succeed to save the world or fail and die. But Spyro and Cynder's will to fight kept them alive to the end. The producers of the game decided the world would be saved, ratchet doesn't know this. smile

ratchet · Jul 19, 2009 12:38 PM

I think destroying the world would be absolutely stupid too IMO. Why? Because the 3 games have been about trying to stop evil, not let it Win! Now, again, My problem is that Spyro Beat the Darkmaster. Ok, its predicatble, but Thats what happens when you win a game, You win. I mean, tahts not to say that something bad couldve happened, Like someone turned out to be evil. Ignitus Dying doesnt count, Cause Its cliche that the wise old mentor dies (Harry potter anyone??).

An example of a good Twist: Remember in TLOS 1 when Cynder put the crystal into the portal And The dark master was supposed to be released? Well he DID get released then. See Gaul, Cynder and Malefor made a plan that they would Pretend that the Dark Master Would revive At the lunar allignment when he would really revive When Cynder Used the crystal. Cynder would then pretend that she hadnt revived the dark master yet and would purposely lose to Spyro. She would then pretend to be friendly with Spyro. After this, she would Try and lure Spyro into danger, Into gaul ( gaul used the Lunar allignment as a lure as well). Then, The dark master thought that Spyro was dead, as well as cynder and started to show himself. when The 2 Revived from the crystal, Cynder talked to Malefor Telepathickly and Continued to lure Spyro into danger and Eventually Malefor, To also finish Spyro off.

However, The plan failed And Malefor as well as Cynder were defeated.
IOf they wanted to, they could have been tricky by making cynder a triple agent. Where She tells Spyro that She is actually still working for the Dark Master before The 2 Fight Him and Then Helps spyro defeat the DM. while the DM still thinks Cynder is on his side.

Or they could of made cynder a Quad agent, Or Penta, Or hexa. lol

RedDragonX · Jul 20, 2009 12:54 AM

I'm too lazy to type out anything long right now but in short I agree with Ratchet tongue

Cyndersparx · Jul 26, 2009 5:12 AM

The game really only disappointed me in a few ways.
Ignitus dying was cliche.
Cynder telling Spyro she loved him was WAYY too predictable.
The ending confused me...and my mom and my brother. Dx
Cynder's voice actor SOUNDED FREAKIN EMOTIONLESS AND HORRIBLE. I miss Mae Whitman. >/

But, the graphics were alot better than in the other games, and flying was always fun. So the game had it's downs and ups.
Im just wondering whats supposed to happen to Spyro now. neutral

ratchet · Jul 28, 2009 2:31 PM

I think we all are wondering that. Its Pretty much clear there will be no gmae this year, and the Spyro movie will probably come out this time next year. So i guess all we can do is wait. I have a feeling Spyro is going to take a bit of a break.

Nightfall · Jul 28, 2009 3:07 PM

Yeah if there was gonna be a game this year we'd have definitely heard about it by now. I remember first hearing about DotD in April last year.

Spyro.Lover.Forever · Jul 28, 2009 3:39 PM

I freaking loved the ending! Spyro and Cynder saving the world without dying... Ignitus becoming the new chronicler.

Gosh. How can you think it's stupid?

RedDragonX · Jul 28, 2009 3:56 PM

I don't see any info about a new game coming out until well after this so called movie is released. They have no reason to, and it would be better not to rush things like they've been doing anyways.

yea i agree, the ending was pretty cool

~cornys~ · Jul 30, 2009 3:00 PM

Well.... Fantacy is a hard subject to make twists in with out really changing the plot line... i wanted Spyro to get taken over by the dark Master and then Cynder stop them both... or what ever... lol... 20/20 hind site.... they really didn't allow time to put in a twist with the rush of the game.

TornWings · Jul 31, 2009 12:47 AM

I was glad the story ended on a high note. The last few games I've played pretty much ended with "Everyone dies" or "Everyone is going to die".
Granted, the story gets kind of twisted because they tried to make everything all dark and depressing and then have a happy ending anyway.

I mean, think about the other games you've played that took the dark route, did they end well (as well as DotD did)? Of course not, it's more like "We lost a lot of good people/fighters/whatever, but we've beaten back the forces of evil, for now." And the losses are usually pretty severe (1 or more main characters, a few settlements, and so on). TloS already have TEN for its "Oh god everything is going wrong" game, it didn't need another one.

Cokuruscana · Jul 31, 2009 3:42 PM

I agree with Ratchet, totally. I mean, the ending was so... we all saw it coming a mile away! :\ I mean, I basically like Cynder (mainly the old Cynder, before DotD), but I thought Spyro should have fought back. hmm I mean, after all he went through, I would think he would have pulled more of a fight.

bananababy · Aug 06, 2009 2:11 AM

I'm kind of dissappointed too. I mean, I haven't played the game, but I've seen most if not all of it on youtube and I have to say the ending was cheesy and Predictable as heck. Really, there should have been some twist like Spyro going dark as Malefor gets weak and then trying to destroy both Malefor AND Cynder, and then after Malefor is defeated and Cynder is near death, he goes light but it's too late- Cynder is beyond recovery. And, well, you probably know what happens. Though it seems like I'm targetting Cynder with that idea, I'm really just a drama addict who thinks ironic mishaps and last minute realizations but it's too late moments are exciting XDD

Nice ending, but i kinda thought that they would do something more like a kiss or something...

RedDragonX · Aug 07, 2009 12:51 AM

Well I didn't expect that much from them lol.....but I wasn't surprised by what they did end it with. Too bad it was pretty predictable.

I actually thought Sierra would do a little more than Cynder saying "i love you". By the way the game played out, it felt that they chucked that in in the last minute.

But I guess Its kinda cool that Cynder's love helped spyro save the planet, i think they should have developed that more though
