After replaying through the full game once more.... I really don't like it anymore. The story is bland, a let-down, has looooads of plotholes it ridiculous, the characters are one-dimensional, the voice acting is horrible, the gameplay is monotonous, Spyro looks like a dog (quote from HIR), the audio is broken, level design is... okay... the only levels I liked were Twilight Forest and The Ruins of Warfang, and the atmosphere is down-right depressing... I'm not really sure what I saw in this game at first... STILL not my least favorite Spyro game though... *glares at Shadow Legacy*

I love this game. Now i can beat it within a day. I wish they would make a forth game and make it challenging. More challenging than the others. I LOVE SPYRO. HE IS AWESOME.

Ohmigoodness, the disc I have for this game, is so messed up, that it's not even funny. The skeleton dudes, yeah, they look like ghost on my game. You can hardly ever see them. It bugs me but, hey, that is mainly my biggest problem. The story line is amazing, though. But does anyone else have this problem with the skeletons?

@DarkSoulxx

Fair enough, do you mind if I ask what those four games are?

I thought this was the "The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon" page, not the "Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure" or "Skylanders: Giants" page. So how about we talk more about DotD (since this is the page for it) and stop complaining about Skylanders, hmm?
