Best game ever !I'm gonna go insane making my own characters . It's too bad there doesn't seem to be any quadraped beast bodies , but alwell.
Hopefully the campain mode has more content the usual or at least a diverse mission list to give us lots to do with the limitless number of characters .

I don't know how I feel. I'm excited for the game, but it basically seems a lot like a glorified Swap Force... Once again, if they made it a sandbox game, or gave it interesting game modes I think I'd be freaking out right now. I'm still hype, but cautious.

I'm too late! They Hype is over. I'll take some minutes to get up to date and tell my thoughts.

Ok, false alarm, she's doing other stuff. So I can talk about GD's moves - holy crap that super with the Khepri inspiration, the eye lasers! You can also see she floats slightly while shootong her basic move, thank god it was always weird how she slowly walked in TT.

Yeah, I'm with you. Just...don't know what to think yet...

In-Depth Imaginators Demo

That's Windham through and through with the Sky Baron Docks area. Now I wonder about the vulture enemies,hm.

It seems all previous characters will be playable:

"We certainly respect people's collections, including this making sure all the previous characters were playable - it's been an important aspect of development. And certainly going forward we want to make sure these characters are supported as well. It's always been a core tenet of ours to do that.""

Yeah, this game totally has more of a SSC artstyle/graphics to it. I'm glad they settled on one engine now <3

GREAT ANCIENTS THAT TRAILER.

Fingers crossed for quadrupeds though.

And yes, the second is definitely an Air Sensei (first is most likely Water): you can tell if from the black and golden plates on his arms.

The first one has an Air emblem though

I don't think the first one is one, iunno, just doesn't really feel like it has a proper theme going on.

Yeah, I was talking about the order in which they appeared in the trailer.
The hooded guy is Air and I guess the girl is Water (because she seems to be wielding two squid guns, or hammers).

IGN just leaked dark king pen

Has anyone gotten to see the magic moment for SI? I think I see a glimpse of it here, but I don't know...

Thanks Brah.

Now we know all Classes: Knight Ninja Bowlinger Sentinel Smasher Quickshot Bazooka Sorcerer Brawler Swashbuckler

Ahhh, well crap! That sucks for them.

Alright, sorry; I'm not able to see the videos right now, just images.

At 1:11

What the heck have they done with Double Trouble, it's too weird, I can't believe what I'm seeing, I can make my own Double Trouble character, variant . But, But, it's just not how I expected him to come back.

Here's hoping for a Portal Owner's pack.

I actually am kinda glad they didn't change it. I love the Superchargers magic moment.
So all characters in general can reach level 22 or just the Imaginators and the Sensei's?
Some of the characters in the trailer look AWESOME! Also, when you create a character, is it possible to change their name, or does it have to be Fire Smasher, Fire Brawler, Fire Knight. Magic Knight and whatever. Does it HAVE to be that?

The trailer was nothing special honestly, we only saw two new Skylanders and it was crap compared to the TT trailer. I love the look of the Air sensei, but I'm not a big fan of the female one.
Damn I need Golden Queen, she looks amazing. I hope the magic moments will have an elemental background in the final version because I really missed those in SC. Oh and also THE CHARACTERS HAVE THEIR OWN CUTSCENES! I'M SOLD!

You can change the name. They just didn't for the sake of time.


DOES ANYONE HAVE CLEAR, HD PICS OF THE STARTER PACK AND FIGURES, YET?

So, time to logic out which villains are gonna be playable, since the focus on weapons kinda shows that guys like Dreamcatcher, Luminous, and Nightshade probably won't be in it. So first, lets go over every villain that has a notable weapon on them, not counting Earth, Undead, or Magic, since we know those ones already.

Pepper Jack, Gulper, Chill Bill, Brawl n Chain, Cross Crow, Chompy Mage, Broccoli Guy, Shield Shredder, Bad Juju, Krankcase, Bruiser Cruiser, Shrednaught, Brawlrus, Mab Lobs, Blaster-Tron, Lob Goblin, Fisticuffs, and Tae Kwon Crow.

Now, for the second round we need to deduce the already existing Villains (That we know about). Golden Queen is a sorcerer, we know this, but what are Pain-Yatta and Wolfgang? Well, if you look, it's clear that Pain-Yatta is most likely a smasher, and Wolfgang... I wanna say swashbuckler, since that one fits his character.

Now we need to figure out the rest of the villains, all 7 of them. The limiting factor here is that we need:
- One of each element
- One of each class

We've already eliminated 3 of each so lets get started on the rest. And as a reminder, the classes are:
Smasher, Knight, Ninja, Bazooker, Quickshot, Sorcerer, Brawler, Sentinel, Swashbuckler, and Bowslinger.

Now, admittedly, most of this is pure guess work since we don't know the full gameplay styles of each, but here's a likely guess from me:

Pepper Jack - Sentinel
Cross Crow - Bowslinger
Krankcase - Quickshot
Blaster-Tron - Bazooker
Tae Kwon Crow - Ninja

What about the last two, you ask? Well, Life is easy, it's Cuckoo Clocker as a Brawler, sinc ethey seem to mostly use their fists. But Air is a bit tougher, in fact, I have no idea what Air will actually be, since the only remaining class in my guess is Knight, and none of the Air villains fit the Knight description.

Anyway, I'm probably wrong on most of these, but this is just my guess.

I agree. The game looks good...the trailer was terrible. I wish they would do more like STT with the mystery box, villains and new characters

That said bigger image

Since they confirmed a new Guest Star is coming, I'm assuming that's the 11th Villain Sensei. I'm predicting Ganon.

Interesting Detail about an Art Competition in the Press Release

Quote:

To celebrate imaginations coming to life, Activision is kicking off the “Skylanders Art-to-Life Contest.” Starting today, Portal Masters are invited to submit drawings of their own created Skylanders for a chance to have their characters represented in the Skylanders Imaginators game at launch! To participate, fans simply draw their imagined Skylander and submit it via Instagram or Twitter with the dedicated hashtag #SkylandersArtContest, or to us directly at SkylandersCommunity@Activision.com. The judging panel will include Toys For Bob who will determine a grand prize winner. For more information, including rules, visit: Skylanders.com/SkylandersArtContest.

So the different battle classes are:
Brawler
Knight
Sorcerer
Ninja
Bazooker
Quickshot
Brawler
Sentinel
Swashbuckler
Bowslinger

I like it, didn't expect there would be three projectile classes, sentinel or Swashbuckler, but it'll certainly be interesting to create some characters with the fitting classes and elements.

Starter Pack.

Quote: TTD

They are definitely going to change the magic moment vortex sometime down the line, the one in the video is almost certainly a placeholder.

I hope so, guess the SuperChargers' one was so generic to accomodate the various Skylanders/vehicles combinations.
I want to get back at elemental magic moments!

Also... Increased level cap, please (guess the Inaginators' might get well beyond 22 if each new Sensei or Battle Class adds one level)!
I do want to level up all my 126 Skylanders.

OH **** WADDUP

Quote: Bionichute

I have no idea what Air will actually be, since the only remaining class in my guess is Knight, and none of the Air villains fit the Knight description.

I new one or maybe the scrapped boss(?) Villain Dragon Hunter from Superchargers? He is based of the rush crushers from the same game which use guard fitting for a knight class and elemental he had to be AIR if he hunts dragons on Sky.

I SAW A FOX TAIL! YASSS! I love this game so much...

I might get a chance at entering my Ice Dragon, Snowfall! Oh wait, he's 4 legged so he won't be picked. Never mind.

With them saying that each Sensei raises the Level Cap does that mean that Lv 50 will be the highest level?
