Gather 'round, Ripto fangirls... (or boys!) for the Ripto Appreciation Thread! Are you a Ripto enthusiast? Share the Ripto love here.

I, for one, think he is brilliant. Short-tempered and full of fail, he's got to be my favourite Spyro villain. Until they ruined him in Enter The Dragonfly.

i agree. they did ruin him in ETD.

His new design was scary and his voice was just... urghhh.

yup. he was freaky!

Old school Ripto = Best Spyro villain ever.

He's not my favorite old-school Spyro villain (that would be the Sorceress), but I've got to give props to Ripto. He was a lot of viciousness and evil rolled into such a short package and he was a very convincing and menacing bad guy.

Yeah, the less said about EtD Ripto, the better.

He is my fav G2GRR chara, but I am afraid I ruined him by making him Neutral, or even Good...

Hear hear!

Hrmm, I know of someone on DA who's obsessed with him...

But he was my favorite Spyro villain. He was an angry little man lmao. And yes, they did ruin him in ETD. "Hocus pocus." How cheesy.

"Hocus pocus" made me want to die.

It's this person http://iloveripto4ever.deviantart.com/

Unless there's two people obsessed with Ripto on deviantart

yup her exactly"

Yep, that's Ripto's number 1 fan right there. She's gone by a lot of different names.

If I can remember where I put it, I have Ripto's original concept art somewhere. I'll have to post that here.

Banned? What for? :/

For harassment on multiple counts, from what I've heard. I never really had a problem with her, but I'm the sort of user who doesn't take garbage from anyone and I think she knew that from the start.

She has another account (of course) but she's planning on leaving.
Funny because I thought she got banned for not doing her half of the trade

This won't be the first time she's left and I have little doubt that she'll be back with a new account within a week. She seems like she could be a nice person but I wish she were a bit more stable. Ah well.

Anyway... Ripto!

Also...Ripto concept art!

Haha! He looks like a little goblin/troll. That's so cool though.

I'll have to go through my e-mails, but I think Oliver's assessment of this concept was "It's not much, but there he is."

Did he ever say what exactly Ripto was supposed to be? I always wondered about that..

I asked him when we met. Ripto is, officially, just a collection of shapes Oliver liked to draw at that time. He's just a bizarre, tyranical little wizard.

Ripto is my favorite Spyro villan ever Love the concept art.

We all appreciate Ripto, he's a legend.

I didn't think his death was very epic.

RIPTO

Hey, I know what Ripto is... a riptoc. seriously, there's gnorcs in the first game, riptocs in the 2nd game, and rynocs in the 3rd game. also, riptocs in the 4rth game. and oddly enough, attack of the rynocs has the main boss as ripto... why would ripto control rynocs?!?

Ripto owns all.

Not my favorite, (which is the Sorceress,) but he is pretty cool.

Dynamite comes in small packages.

Well if you like ripto so much make a ripto fan site like me

The Sorceress was my favorite. :3

But Ripto is an interesting little villain. xD

Ripto is my favorite of the villains in the Spyro games (on video game systems or GBA). The only game that he was a dissapointment in was ETD. Otherwise, I think he was awsome.

Ripto - 50 %

Sorceress - 50 %

Gnasty Gnorc - 10%

Ripto and the Sorceress are about equal, all though I did enjoy the little guy. I was a bit disappointed about Gnasty Gnorc. I wish he would have said more and been a lot stronger. The only words he said in that game were: 'Simple?!' 'No threat?!' 'Ugly?! That does it!' He said few words, maybe that's why they didn't say the voice for him on the credits. The Sorceress is pretty cool though.

Ripto is my fave Spyro villain. Malefor? Pah, Ripto's way more awesome |3

I like how ripto and his pals scared money bags off the palace. they didnt even touch him. money bags must tremble at the sight of Ripto.
