I love the song Guide you home in the credits. It allways cheer me up if I'm sad or angry. Rebecca Kneubuhl and Gabriel Mann sings this song very good togheter. I allways think that Rebeccas voice is Cynder and Gabriels Spyro. I can the lyrics to this song and every night I listen at least one time trought the song. The first time I heard it and when I understod that TLoS had ended I started to cry and I do never cry in the real life, NEVER. This song is so beautiful and as I have said earlier: I can listen to it again and again and again...
Exactly, you need a good plot.
I'm curious on what ideas anyone has for that to continue DotD.

I don't see much they could've done either. They did plenty with DotD, but it had a happy ending.
To make another LoS game, they'd need a plot and a villain, wouldn't they?

Agreed.
Although I still wonder what they could've done after the ending. Spyro and Cynder seemed to live, the world was repaired, and Malefor was defeated. Typical happy ending.
I don't see what they could've done for a plot after this had a happy ending?

I wouldn't bother asking. The fandom's never happy with the games they got (this includes Classics) anyways.
I doubt they would've made another LoS game anyway. LoS didn't bring in enough money, and Skylanders is certainly helping the Spyro series more than LoS ever could.

I still stand by my question: DotD had a fine ending. Most people were happy with it. What more do you people want?
And welcome to darkSpyro, enjoy your stay!

It would be cool if Cynder was in all Spyro games afterwards, but then she might get boring in a way.
i love this game im also trying to write a script on my page but i need help please look and give suggestions
I wonder if they will put Cynder in every Spyro game after this, I hope so! 
At least they did put her in the Skylanders game.

Hi, I'm new here and this will be my first comment.
This game is so great! The story is is very good and Spyro's and Cynder's elements are awesome! I like all characters very much and it's very fun to play the game. I love the ones who makes the voices ( Eljah Wood, Christina Ricci, Gary Oldman... ). It's great that you can play with both Spyro and Cynder and as first time in Spyro history as multiplayer. I love the ending sooo much and I hope they will make a TLoS 4. I like the jokes from Sparx and the others.
My rating this game would be 7 stars of five becouse this is the BEST game ever!
Spyro and Cynder is the best! And all their fans in the world rocks!
