#I WANNA RIP IT APART AND REDO IT FROM SCRATCH LIKE IT COULDVE BEEN SOOOO MUCH BETTER

If you were to change some things in dawn of the dragon, what would they be?

OOOOHHH DEAR LETS DO THIS

first of all, id love if cynder didnt seem so...annoyed? bored? her voice acting is so flat and her attitude doesnt seem to fit whats going on at any point?

i would..not have the big "i love you" scene between spyro and cynder at the end. like, theyve had zero time across 3 games to develop a romantic interest in eachother, it feels so forced at the last minute and its aggravating bc i know its just "boy protag and girl protag ALWAYS fall in love" and the fact that its mostly due to fans wanting it makes it even more grating to me since it just shows that the development team never originally dedicated any time to making it happen initially and it really was just slapped on after the fact

ID CHANGE IGNITUS'S DEATH SCENE sorry im an ignitus stan who thoroughly believes that he shouldnt have died. like, over 3 games we see this poor guy get broken down until hes so depressed he can barely function, but hes the biggest believer of getting to see a better world someday. he deserved to see spyro save everyone, he deserved to see happier times, and i feel like he still had a lot to give. i especially would love to see more between him and spyro, their relationship is so interesting.

ID LIKE TO SEE MORE OF THE OTHER GUARDIANS like i feel like theyre barely there in dotd??? its cool we get to see them fight a little but i feel like there should be a little more of a presence from them

lore. god the lore needs to be fucking developed more, they contradict themselves repeatedly in this game. "a purple dragon is born once every ten generations" to "malefor and spyro are the only purple dragons ever" to "malefor actually fucking stating that there have been purple dragons before him"???????????? like im not even entirely sure what we're meant to believe here. also the dragon city??? the fact that we see other dragons helping everyone that we've never met before??? the catacombs??? can we have some explanation PLS???

SPEAKING OF MALEFOR oh my god. oh fuck. mark hamill is a good voice actor but they put so many "evil" sounding effects on his voice that hes actually barely understandable. like, i HAVE to turn on subtitles bc idk what the fuck hes saying. he feels so cheesy and cliche, all he does is laugh evilly and taunt spyro and cynder by lying to them, it just feels disappointing that hes built up to be this massive, horrific villain and all we have is Big Bad Guy Who Is Bad And Will Laugh At You. spyro and cynder arent even the ones that defeat him. he feels so insanelt lackluster, and his design is so weirdly clunky and clustered despite everything else indicating otherwise. they made....so many weird choices with him...i can not understand why.....

id make sparx have a little more to do. like, in the other games he at least leads spyro to somewhere or incites an important action that has to happen for the story to progress, or he helps you out in some way or another. in dotd it just feels like hes...yknow...There. like he makes some jokes and then right at the end he gets sent away and thats it. it feels so odd since u would figure he and spyro's bond would warrant a LITTLE more in the final game of the fucking series

trust me there is sooooo much more i could literally go on and on about story-wise, character-wise and gameplay-wise but i feel like this is already waaay too long as it is bc all i do is ramble lolololol
