pretty much yes

yeap, it probably is. another promising franchise dies by the hands of Activision. Maybe in another reality Skylanders gets the treatment it really deserve (probably from a different company that actually respect the franchise and not just milk it to death). Well, at least Spyro will come back, but as long as activism still owns his IP I expect that he will die again very soon.

Well, Skylanders is dead, but I have an idea for something we could do: Skylanders Infinity War!

Pretty simple, really. Just the Infinity War characters if they were Skylanders. It's something to do, right?

Spoilers for the movie, by the way, so be careful.

In a sort of way, I am actually doing my own take of the Marvel Cinematic Universe known as the Skylander Cinematic Universe; essentially with all existing Skylanders (plus Imaginators I will be releasing), where I travel across all 6 games and just do a bunch of stuff.

I'm mostly starting this during this years E3 and Gamescom (since from 2013 to 2016, I loved checking out this site for info on Skylanders during those conferences, and I kinda miss that).

There's even 28 blank Imaginator templates with the two parts unlocked by the Senseis to represent the people I have in my newly remastered Purists (not all confirmed).

I'm just bored, okay!

gonna have to do one of these later

here is a nice meme i found to light up the mood here
http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/1273980-not-you-tu-no
for some reason i cant post the meme here so here is a link

LMAO, that "NOT YOU" in the middle cracked me up good. (Also, hi everybody! Long time no see. Been lurking, prepping for Baby McMurderpup to arrive this summer.)

To be fair to Zapnorris, Superchargers was pretty godawful.

I honestly never really got why people hated SuperChargers so much. It's honestly one of the games I replay to the most. I feel like it had a lot of good things - such as a small roster and a great story with some real depth to it. I also really liked the Racing Mode.

****... talking about SC... again?

You know what I think? The only thing more dead than Skylanders is this ****ty community. There're tons of things we could discuss about Imaginators and even past games and practically no one is saying a thing after the news stopped coming. There isn't even a proper thread about Imaginators guide and combinations. But oh yeah, to talk about how much SC sucked again there is always time.

You people are absolutely tiring and the only reason the activity in this forum is dying.

I can't disagree

And that's how Zap has been recently.

I think a lot of tension is just rising on the forum because everyone is realizing that this series is coming to an end, and that is a pretty painful thought for people, such as myself, who have been fans since Spyro's Adventure, Giants, etc. I know forums can typically survive for years beyond the end of a series, but I'm just saying that this time period, in particular, is a pretty dreary one for a lot of fans. I've gotta say, some of the best memories of my life come from alone.

I'm sure I could spark some discussion if I actually get around to replaying the old games and doing my in-depth reviews. It was thanks to these rather drastic opinions that I wanted to do these reviews. Especially for Superchargers. It really isn't as bad as people make it out to be, and I think it's a whole lot better than Imaginators. But I'll save that for my (eventual) reviews.

[quote=[url=http://forum.darkspyro.net/spyro/viewposts.php?topic=127451&post=6350642]Drawdler[/url]]Oh, huh, yesterday afternoon I had a dream Skylanders 7 was getting made somehow, but it only just occurred to me that was a dream right now because it slipped my mind. I didn't see any new characters, though it was confirmed there would be 20-something, I think it was actually advertised with the older ones. Which honestly I thought was kinda cool. It didn't really get my attention or change my mind on leaving the franchise behind though, it was primarily ehhhyeh hey it's another modern game and I'm so done with current consoles and I know I don't want to buy more figures or keep thinking back to legacy stuff that was dumped over the years...

Because truly no one can evolve from their previous games. Remember how N. Sane Trilogy was SO terrible, and totally killed the chances for a new Crash game?

ooh wait[/quote]

Doesn't mean it's good because it's popular though, and if it were an odd thing I would agree (I was iffy towards VV after SC... I won't deny I had kneejerk reactions but didn't write them off purely because of it, I knew that was just one game), but my overall point was VV doesn't have that great of track record despite [i]plenty of opportunity to learn and make great games[/i]. Seriously, why do people bring up their legacy and the studio as if they're that impressive. That and I'll admit that with what I've lived through (won't go into details) I'm predispositioned to expecting people and things not to change, and truly believe I see little change, I'm a pessimist.

NST definitely brought Crash back into the spotlight but it doesn't mean it was good. It's [i]really bad[/i] on some objective marks and has a lot of problems beyond just "niggles" or "missed something from the original". I know a lot of people loved it and I'm not trying to say everyone is wrong or worse but popular opinion is not very intelligent and NST bringing back a beloved mascot means people did overlook a lot of large issues with it and praise it more than they would otherwise. But, while it bothers me to some extent, I get that and have no issue with someone who does it as long as they aren't shutting down other opinions.
What's really **** is how when most people try to bring up issues with it no matter how they say it (and I'm not talking about mine, because I know I write angrily- I've seen this with people who write way better than me and are way fairer to the game), and if you say you dislike it, a lot of people will just defend it and comeback directly to you because so many people don't have issues with things like the controls or aesthetics (even though plenty of people have issues with them too, and are worth hearing out) or call you a nostalgia***. Thanks for being another one of those people, missing so much of the point I was trying to make then replying with no interesting points and just cherrypicking out SC and NST. Either way this is getting really off-topic, and I hate NST as much as SC so I don't really want to talk about it further anyway... I've said everything I can say about it somewhere before, really, look in Video Gaming if you want my bigger personal rant on it I guess.[/quote]


Definately agree with what you said about Nsane and the people who blindly defend it. Earlier this week I finally sold the game since I was done with owning a game that doesn't even have its development complete. I tweeted out that I sold the game. That was it just said I sold it and that was it. And man the hate I got from Crash fans was beyond baffling.


Now for VV? My view on the studio is completely different. Still have massive respect for them for SC and SF, but they just aren't gonna be the same now. With the future that's layed out for VV, this is the beginning of the end of the studio. Yeah there's that rumour of a new Crash game next year, but if that game fails then a huge lay off is bound to happen. The team is already putting their main focus into the Destiny IP (not to mention that they're completely themeing the studio as Destiny).


I just done want them to suffer the same fate Radical Entertanment did years ago but I just don't see a good aftermath from this.


If VV dies, they'll live on through memory. Sorry for sounding this negative or pessimistic, but this situation has happened in the gaming industry way too many times.


At least TFB are banking with Spyro and a new IP on the way though.

Is there any interest in a new Skylanders 'let's play' channel? I might make one if my summer schedule allows it, along with restarting my unbiased reviews. I'm just asking this because I still want to get life out of the collection I'd spent a good chunk of my childhood building, and I wouldn't mind trying my hand at a playthrough.

Forgive me if I don't get excited at this lame mobile offering.

Being by Com2us and not the usual mobile shovelware, it can at least be a week of a fun timekiller. We're not getting a "real" game for a while, I'll take Soylanders with a wardrobe change.

Bump - Skylanders Creator has been delisted despite being a fully working game, that in fact I can still open on my end because I didn't have anything better to download at the time.

not sorry for the double post, gamestop might be in trouble


tbcfh if gamestop goes under than skylanders has literally ZERO ****ING CHANCE of coming back.

you mean the thing we basically already know isn't going to happen isn't going to happen? shocker

Head's up to anyone still looking to complete a collection or get cheap crystals: overstock retailer Five Below has the Enchanted Elven Forest adventure pack for $5, which includes Boom Bloom and an Air Crystal.

Edit: They also have full Xbox One and PS4 starter packs for $5.

Call me when you find Lost Imaginite Mines at a price that doesn’t make me wanna vomit

yeah found that at 5 below aswell but has anyone seen the Switch starter pack at a 5 below I have seen every other system beside this one

saw them in 5 below too. That's also a bit bothering of how bad Imaginators did as I've never seen the starter packs in Five Below. Seen plenty of adventure packs and other characters but never a starter pack.
I already picked up enough Golden Queens though I would like to get another Dark Golden Queen sometime down the road.
Always good to get more creation crystal but I rather just pay the 5 dollars for the creation crystals rather then open a big box and have nothing to do with the remaining.

So blastertron, Painyatta, GraveClobber, Crash and Dr. Cortex pack and obviously the Boom Bloom Pack.
I might at some point decide to do the boom bloom pack cause it might be nice to send her down another path but I'm really would be doing it for the creation crystal and before I buy anymore I'd like to be sure they are actually working for the next Skylanders console adventure.

Time for more sad news.

This is the cover for the Skylanders comic that was cancelled for no reason other than "it might be mistaken for the TV show".



I wonder if we could ask nicely to the other artists if they still have the inks for the comic since it was clearly almost done, but even then, man I just feel angry and frustrated. I thought they just stopped ordering more comics, this is much much more stupid that they just said "no" to money and good content.

I have no words.

What kind of dumb excuse is that, anyway?!
Is Academy considered a bad thing as well, now?

Maybe it’s just Activision wanting to focus on both Spyro and Crash as much as possible, but I don’t think cancelling a basically already completed comic was a smart decision even in that case.
With such a gorgeous and intriguing cover too!
