Don't complain if there are thousands of topics about this, but levels are just TERRIBLE!

Honestly, with these new 'action figures' of Skylanders, Spyro's turning into Dungeons and Dragons.

Like WereCat said: Explain?
You might want to back that statement up.

Well, if it were more like adventuring, like ANB or TEN, it would be way better.

But it's more expansive for players to explore the levels, unlike ANB and TEN. If you don't like the game only because of the levels, then...I dunno.

DotD had a greater sense of exploration than the Classic games at some parts, IMO. And unlike with the Classics, I had to use a walkthrough to find some stuff, even in TEN...

Well, I personally hate "Level Games", I like games like Fable, Grand Theft Auto, and other adventuring games like that.

Fair enough. I get where you're coming from, you just gave me the wrong impression from your first post.

Oh, I get yeah!

Yeah, I wish DotD was open-world, but I like games with levels/stages/chapters just as much. 'Tis why I am a Sonic fan!smilie

I thought the whole being able to go to any level at any time was great, reminded me alot of the portals in the classics, whereas in ANB and TEN you had to go through the whole game to get to a certain level- I don't wanna have to go through it all just to play on the mine-carts again :/

Too right!smilie

The only real reason I think DotD should of been completely open world is because of the flight. Although I think they still worked the balance well to allow platforming and a chapter system.

I also disliked the levels, doctorwhofan(*high-five!*) but you did need to back up your statement.

I was fine with how there was a level system. I just disliked a few of the levels... *coughDragonCitycough*

the Level I disliked most.. Would have to be Ruins of Warfang or Burned Lands.

For me, Attack of the Golem....the fight with Golem itself was awesome, but if you want to put normal gameplay before hand, at least make it have variety, instead of fighting a ton of orcs!smilie

That's one of the things. One of the other things is how straight they were, with optional extras branching on the sides. IMO anyway...

I don't see 2D scenery as a problem, especially the 2D soldiers in Dragon City....just place a bunch of Sackbots in one area in LBP2....smilie

I hate the later levels; Burned Lands, Floating Islands, etc. It felt more like a chore then fun. I also think the levels should've been shorter, so that more levels could be put in.

Personally, I liked above all "Burned Lands" for its music. The melody gives the game a dramatic and hopeless touch.



This.
