I agree. TT's gimmick has been the most enjoyable (and creative) for me as well. I liked the whole idea of being able to play as "the dark side" of skylanders, which was well built imo.

SF gimmick never appealed to me tbh.

It was a good idea with trap team but they should take it a bit further. Instead of reposes a ton, take villains that worked as traps villains and make them actual figures and putting them on the portal reverses the mechanics of a level. Instead of defending a place, you attack it instead. Different missions depending on skylanders or villains. That would be a way to revitalize the franchise and play a darker side.

That's actually a good idea, it would be cool to have those two perspectives. Don't know why but I always like when I get to know both the good and bad side of a universe (like playing as Virgil in devil may cry). Unfortunately, seeing how villains didn't make an appearance in SC I'm losing hope they will be included again, which is a pity, seeing how certain characters like luminous were one of the funniest (both in terms of personality and gameplay) to ever be included.

skylanders next?

Maybe this is connected to the fact that the lizard people will take over the world.

I didn't give any proof, I just feel it is, even if a game that more or less bombed having its team disbanded could only be attributed to itself and whatever poor decisions made in its development(read: try to be gimmicky and not really offer anything worthwhile which is what killed GH in the first place). See how easy it is?

Nope Superchargers sales were alright, just not as much as expected. That's not a reason to start closing TFB or VV.
