Oh Haedox when you will learn...

Since some of you are not visiting the rest of the Imaginators topics...



Yeah, we'll have Legendary Creation Crystals with new mini-comics.

Oh... Already posted. Sorry. But here's the image.

is it avalible in australia at BIG W

That´s what it made me wonder if he sort of lied to us.

Does anyone knows Buckshot's Soul Gem?

Well that's surprising.
He called the game "decent."

Zap,
Which Walmart did you go to?
I'm going to the Buena Park Walmart at opening to see if the Elven Forest Treehouse will be out on day 1, since everyone else (BB, GS and TRU) are opening at regular times

Broadway in Chula Vista, CA.

Only waves 1 and 2. Only W1 molds of crystals, no air crystals, and no EEF.

Notes-

Hood Sickle and Chopscotch are detailed AF
There was only one hood sickle, one wolfgang, and one barbella (not a chase )
many of starcast, ambush, TKC, tri-tip, and aurora
no crash editions whatsoever.

The irony here is palpable.

Lorne Balfe was still listed as a composer for the game.

Yes, but more as the other games it uses a lot of music from the previous games. New level themes are few or far between. And because of the Senseis I've been expected that the title track sounds more chinese (like Kung Fu Panda or Forbidden Kingdom).

Is toys r us going to have crystal 3 packs on day 1?

Doubt it. It would invalidate their sale of 3 crystals for $25.

So from 1 to 10 how is the game? Worth buying?

It's been confirmed that Skylanders Spyro is not Classic Spyro

When was that actually confirmed? I think they've been intentionally vague about his exact origins in Skylanders.

The story is a little weak i admit, they could made a little more effort to it.

Absolutly no. Close as I can figure it as yet better than TT or SC, that was good games, but a little too much gimmick oriented. It is more like the first three games. A child friendley dungeon crawler with some tricky plattforming and at last more riddles. There are some little things, that some of the previous games did better (seperate time mode at SF or the story scrolls of SA, SG or SF), or a more unique level soundtrack, the size and the price of the Senseis, but that all is grumbling on a very high level.

I'm at the last or before last level and there are a lot placed locked on the M.A.P. and some of the levels are a little bit bulkier, so that it need any time till I could give a complete rating, but as yet I would say 9/10.

How long does it take to beat Imaginators? I'm little bit worried about the game length. It sounds like a 3-5 hour game. X.x

It has 10 story Chapters, 3 Adventure Pack Chapters, 10 Elemental Realms (side stages), lots of side missions, quests, and many items to collect.

But how long is the story? The first two chapters seems really smal and there are only 10 story chapters .... It sounds not like the standart 10-hour skylander campaign...

^Haven't get it yet, but according to IGN is 10 hours long (main campaign)

It is quite long, there is one section in the story where you have a task in the M.A.P, which isnt counted as a level, but that part took me around about an hour to do

I wanted to go hinting yesterday and today in my town. I usually go to 4 different places:
- 2 have decided to do not sell the game at all this year
- 1 had just the game, 3 senseis and a few crystals
- 1 had much more stuff but it is the ebgames/gamestop equivalent in my country and it is the brand that has the Kaos exclusivity. Even them had not the full wave 1.

A bit worrying.

restoring the core of light!? well this mabey proves my theory...

Quote: Drawdler

Welp, it's not really rebuilding it, it's more like it's in the Light Realm now like it was just moved there.

Also this one chest here was such a tease. ;-;

which proves my theory.
remember in sc when glumshunks was swallod by the sky eater but then he was found in the Ridepocalypse?
what if not all the things the sky eater destroyed are not completly destroyed? what if some of them where just moved to some other locations? how else you can expline the existence of the core of light in imagnitors?.

I'm loving the game so far. It excited me when first playing, I got a few laughs in... The game has a nice feel. It feels fresh but has a nice SSA/STT feel mixed in. It's GORGEOUS, with the hub standing out and being fairly big, even though I'm only two chapters in. The characters are great and there seems to be a couple of modes I can play after the story (I don't think a mode available straight off in the hub is a spoiler but I'll be nice and safe). I didn't want another SSC post game, so I'm holding out hope.

I'm waiting to unlock more Imaginator parts to make full use of the customisation, but I spent a good 20 minutes or so using it.

I think not playing for almost 2 months has made me realise how much I missed it (I've been busy and I do have to schedule in play time for this game). It's super fun, but really lowered my stress levels too.

Interestingly, while 9 of the Kaos weapons are randomly found in Imaginite Chests, one of them has a specific unlock condition. The Kaos Daggers Swashbuckler weapon is only available in the Sensei Dark Realm.

Kaos has strong ties to Dark, being (a clone of) a Dark Portal Master, having a base with the same color as Dark, and his Villain icon during the Magic Moment having the same visual effects as Dark. Swashbuckler is also the Class which most closely resembles his ability to use all Classes, having both melee and long-ranged options.

- - -

But while the Sensei Dark Realm has 1 extra item compared to the standard, (1 weapon and 1 aura matching the Element, plus a voice if you complete Troll Radio,) the Sensei Tech Realm has an entire set (Candy Fantastic)!

- - -

For reference, the Elemental Realms reward these weapon types: Air = Sorcerer, Dark = Swashbuckler, Earth = Brawler, Fire = Ninja, Life = Sentinel, Light = Knight, Magic = Bowslinger, Tech = Bazooker, Undead = Quickshot, Water = Smasher.

It would be cool if Kaos could unlock the Dark Elemental Realm. As it is, he offers less than any other sensei (no special technique, no weapon, no realm)

Honestly that doesn't surprise me. When you're doing yearly installments, some corners will be cut. Even Nintendo does this with their Mario games as of late.

Quote: Bifrost

Monthly ELI5: Haedox is a notorious name in the fandom this year. He started with videos about how Crash shouldn't be in Skylanders because muh childhood, then he DID get in and he threw a hissyfit --- I mean a video about how the entire series sucks and no one is memorable and it's literally the devil because muh childhood.
We whined a bit but kinda felt like it was uncalled for after a while.
THEN he decided to made an account for the entire purpose of calling us cancer, then sicking his fans on Eric Rogers(SA's main writer) for "ruining" Spyro and his childhood(again). Apparently Eric blocked him but not after a reall embarassing retort from Haedox that "his criticism was constructive" despite the fact he subtly said in the inital post that Eric is at fault for everything and people should yell at him. Now our suspicions of him and his double standard of not dissing series other than Skylanders are justified and it's why we're scratching our heads as to why several youtuber fans get no review copies but he does.

This post was incredibly biased. Allow me to offer a better explanation:

Last June, Haedox made a video explaining why he didn't like the idea of Crash appearing in Skylanders, and another explaining why he doesn't like the Skylanders series as whole. He was respectful in these videos and gave his opinion without attacking anyone who disagreed. He even invited those who disagreed to comment below at the end of the two videos.
Somebody posted the two videos on the forum and, despite him being respectful, everyone lost their cool. They started attacking him out and labeling him as a manchild, whiny adult, ect.
And by the way, his reasons for disliking Skylanders went far beyond "muh childhood". I suggest you watch the videos again.

Now, I never knew that he made an account on here to call us cancer, but if he did, it was totally justified. It was the people on this forum that originally started attacking him. If a fandom isn't able to hear constructive criticism without harassing the critic, then that fandom is indeed what I would consider to be cancer. I'm not trying to attack the forum as a whole - there are a lot of great people on here - but the incident with Haedox bothers me, and he had every right to be pissed.

As the for thing with Eric Rogers, I wasn't able to find anything on it and given the bias towards Haedox that's present on here, I don't want to take anyone's word for it. No offence.
Talk to me when you have screenshots.
