Your opinion on the TLOS games

T3h0v4llu · Mar 18, 2009 12:32 PM

After ive played DotD i think ANB was okay.

Playing TEN with wii made it really fun for me sometimes.

About the cliche's:

Tells enough for me when i stopped playing DotD because of a cliche. "[insert something here]'s are truly amazing beings" is a very very used comment. Im very very disappointed. I know, all games have cliches and i usually notice them and try to think what would have been done better, but this was enough. The other cliches in the start were more "minor" ones. But after THAT line, i anticipated the retardness what i was going to meet later in the game. Guess what i did after i stopped playing DotD? I went back to completing TEN.

(This ALL is my HUMBLE OPINION.)

Well, it was an interesting twist upon the Spyro series. To me, Spyro had no definite storyline. So TLoS is what concentrates at that. It may be appealing to kids of the times, but not so much as to old fans of the original Spyro.

To me, it's an interesting take of Spyro's kiddiness theme, and throwing in a darker, more mature theme. Somewhat like Spyro and Batman.

So the story is what's a real strong point of the series, and so is the unique music. But the repetitive gameplay is what really brings down my opinion of it. If you're seeking serious combat, get God of War instead.

Yeah I agree with that. I really don't care about cliches and whatever....so long as it has somewhat of a decent storyline....and I'm pretty sure they were trying to throw an epic storyline into this to help make up for certain elements and to do a complete 180 of the original series. The gameplay could have been much much better....but perhaps they will learn from it and better themselves out of the experience.

We can only hope...

My least favourite was Eternal Night because:

1. Spyro's Earth Element was great in the ANB. It turned into some kinda Ball in TEN
2. I hated Sparx's voice
3. Putting pirates in the film was such a bad idea

Although, I Still Love The Game. Oh and I really hated Scabb. XD
When Spyro got to the mountain of malefor, It was alot better.

RedDragonX · Mar 27, 2009 2:54 AM

I'd say I dislike them all the same......TEN was the only real nuisance to me because of some spots being rather annoying in completing.

Spyro.Lover.Forever · Mar 27, 2009 7:30 PM

I only liked the parts in TEN where he got to the Mountain of Malefor and finding Cynder.
Although TEN Is still a great game.

They're all great!

After some serious thinking i realized that The Legend of Spyro could have been an awesome trilogy. Shame that the no-good game developers ruined it...

Spyro.Lover.Forever · Mar 27, 2009 9:14 PM

I love TLOS just how it is...
No Spyro game has ever been bad for me.

RedDragonX · Mar 27, 2009 9:29 PM

I enjoy them for what they are...but I will never deny the fact that they could have been much MUCH better.

Spyro.Lover.Forever · Mar 27, 2009 10:37 PM

They were alot better than I expected at first. I am a big fan of all TLOS games. TEN could have been alot better, I won't deny that.

I liked ANB and DOTD.

T3h0v4llu · Mar 27, 2009 11:39 PM

Lol i liked TEN the most.

No no, i dont particularly hate the games but it always saddens me how good those games would have been.

Spyro.Lover.Forever · Mar 27, 2009 11:44 PM

How would you imagine them at first though?
I think they fitted perfect with TLOS!

T3h0v4llu · Mar 28, 2009 12:01 AM

I dont quite understand what you are trying to say in your post.

What fitted perfectly with TLOS?

Spyro.Lover.Forever · Mar 28, 2009 12:08 AM

The games. I can't imagine something better than what they've done with TLOS already.

Jackson117 · Mar 28, 2009 12:17 AM

Thibk outside the box.

But overall if it wasn't for the time budget it could of been better

Like Jackson said, you have to be thinking much larger then what you see in just these games. The gameplay in general could have been improved ten fold and even the story could have been better. Along with character designs and overall voice acting things could have been much more improved had more effort and attention been thrown in. That and having a workable timetable in which they had plenty of chances to go over these details.

Ryft Darkpaw · Mar 28, 2009 9:22 PM

please...don't get me started in critic mode...for now i'll say that the games were entertaining...

So what are you going to say about 58 metascore for DotD?

The games entertained me too. I say that they were very well worth the money i paid for them.

spyromaster330 · Apr 12, 2009 12:42 PM

The only one I've played is ANB, and its was ok, but it wasn't good enough to make me want to go out and get TEN and DOTD.

Spyro.Lover.Forever · Apr 12, 2009 4:23 PM

From what I have seen, the games have entertained me and kept me occupied.

Kazoobie64 · Apr 12, 2009 4:40 PM

In my opinion, a game that does its job as a fun little time-waster (sans the fun) doesn't necessarily make it a "good" game. Someone can show you a painting of a white stick figure against a black background and you can stare at it for a while and wonder why the artist even did that, thus the painting caught your attention, but it's still pretty much a crappy painting.

RedDragonX · Apr 12, 2009 8:57 PM

Yes but that's not always the same for everyone. Some people are certainly easier entertained then others are. I for one can be easily entertained by something even if it's not the best overall quality...that and I've seen just what the worse of the worse can be...so I always cut my losses and enjoy what I have at the moment. That's just me of course.

T3h0v4llu · Apr 12, 2009 9:22 PM

I was ENTERTAINED by ANB and TEN, although it doesnt make them good.

Spinner the Faun · Apr 12, 2009 9:41 PM

I do love the Legend of Spyro games, just as much as the classics. But not better or less, because they are different and still Spyro.

You know what I think if you saw my topic that got locked. Apparently, people don't have freedom of speech around here. Unless of course I said original > los :-P
