I wonder which artwork will be the real box art


Oh, most definitely the first one.

Calling this new one new "game cover art" is kinda misleading, cuz if you actually look where the image was ripped from:

https://www.gamestop.com/colle...ignited-trilogy

You can see it's actually designed to be a website background, rather then any sort of game cover, hence why Spyro's shoved into the corner, and why certain enemies and props are still there, while others are removed.

And people are already complaining about Sheila’s ponytail!
Literally unplayable, am I right?

Nitpicks aside I really like the look of Bentley but I’ve already learned artworks can differ from the in-game models, so I won’t judge him too quickly.
Absolutely don’t mind Sheila having hair, she probably would have looked too weird and boring without them in a modern days graphic.

Very small glimpse of Agent 9 as well... Uuuh... The colors look ok. smilie

Sheila looks so cute!

I hope Hunter will also be looking similar to his Hero'S Tail version.

So seeing as Bentley's look now heavily hints that TfB did indeed turn to A Hero's Tail for some design inspirations-

I actually think Sheila would look really cute with pigtails but I'm hoping their reasoning wasn't because they wanted to make her look more recognizably "feminine" or something, since her original model didn't have stereotypical girly features like long eyelashes, big lips and the like. Crossing my fingers that they just wanted to make her design a bit more interesting (giving her cute hair definitely gives her a bit more personality compared to the other playable side characters, who all had clothing and/or weapons apart from her).

#3158 Posted: 12:35:54 14/07/2018
It might've been because Sheila is a bit plain on acessories; since so many animal NPCs have haircuts that might've been their choice of extras.

Bentley does pretty much look like his AHT design which is kind of odd, with only a few alterations so he's not as unappealing.

I'm.....not a fan of Sheila and Bentley.

Bentley reminds me too much of his A Hero's Tail model, and considering how they butchered and flanderized his character in that game.....yeah.

Sheila just looks to me like TFB said "how can we make Sheila more feminine and look like a Disney Princess instead of the asskicking person she was in the original".

My first big disappointment with Reignited so far.

#3162 Posted: 16:29:26 14/07/2018
It’s also important to remember how we are only seeing less than half of her face and basically nothing of her body, so it’s probably too soon to judge, unlike Bentley.

Besides, personally not getting that vibe at all considering her ponytail or pigtail actually gives me a very adventurous feeling and so does her expression.

Really hoping for european cover arts but won’t be too disappointed if they won’t remake them.
Fingers crossed for Gateway to Glimmer to be used as the title for the second game here, though.

To be honest, going by the remade Crash Bandicoot covers which didn't remake the pal version of the covers (but too be fair only the Crash 3 cover was different), I think its very unlikely they'll remake the pal Spyro covers.

I don't think a remake of Spyro 3's pal cover would be able to capture how "amazing" Bentley's thousand yard stare is anyway.

Sunny Flight's colors definitely look better in that new footage, though I'm not sure if the flying animation was actually improved at all. I think the person playing is just waggling the control stick more.

And the Reignited-ized covers are SICK! Bentley looks absolutely amazing. I share some similar concerns about Shiela as C1nder does; I don't mind the additions of hair and accessories as long as they're intended to enhance her character and personality, but I'd be worried if they're doing it because "female characters should look THIS way!". That being said, I'm confident it will be the former.

#3165 Posted: 17:53:05 14/07/2018
I can definitely feel the fear of the "Female animals need humanized female traits, cuz GURL!!1" trope as well... but until we get more info, I'm going to be cautiously optimistic of the idea that her hair's suppose to be some kinda badass ponytail that extenuates her badassness, akin to Tara's from Desert Ruins, and not just "HAIR CUZ PERDY GURL1!!1"


Maybe the hair could be used to highlight just how high she jumps? Via physics? Like, "See how powerful her jump is! Her ponytail goes WHOOSH!!"

She might also have some outfit to explore the mountains of her area, which would look better with a ponytail than loose hair. Not that the hair would be that much needed if she has other clothes, but who knows it could've tied the silhouette together.

It is pretty misty, but imo that fits the tropical environment really well. The color scheme is quite different, though, notably not having the sunset pink and the turquoise waters of the original.

I'm not too bothered by the new colors myself, but I can see it taking some time for others to get used to.

Yeah, I pretty much agree with C1nder in regards to Sheila.

As for Bentley, I really don't understand where the AHT comparison is coming from, as the only similarities I can see are the red eyes and blue nose. (The latter of which he had to begin with)
Everything else about him looks entirely different from how he looked in that game, and he looks way better than how he did in AHT anyways.


[User Posted Image]

I think it's the eyes and the floof. They're using the same things the AHT designers did even if it's not the intention, by giving him more blue under the eyes and very goat-like fur. His original design doesn't have either because of the graphical limitations.

There's also the more angular head, the pointed goatee, and the removal of the uni-brow, which is also very AHT-esk.

OKAY. I'm pretty disappointed that they seem to be giving Sheila hair. I loved that she didn't have hair, because everyone seems to feel the need to give anthropomorphic female animals hair to express that they're a girl. Sheila was great because she was just a kangaroo ... Bianca had hair, Elora had hair, but Sheila was just a kick ass kangaroo who didn't need feminine traits to show that she was a girl. You don't need to give animals human traits of femininity. Zootopia was great in this regard because (most) of the female animals looked the same as the males, and they didn't give every girl a head full of hair.
I'm sorry, this is the first thing that I'm really disappointed with.

Judging by Sheila's hairstyle, headband and outfit, I'm gonna assume her appearance will be more Bavarian just like how mountain goats.

Also, I hope Agent 9's gameplay mechanics gets completely overhauled into something more standard or at least like that recent Ratchet & Clank game.

I'm surprised by Sheila's pigtail(s)! I'm sure she's gonna be adorable, just like Bentley's cute doggo face. I do, however, acknowledge the concerns about the hair being traditionally feminine. Sheila honestly did have plenty of personality in her featureless, low-resolution original form, and part of that personality was being a cocky anthropomorphic Australian Lara Croft. Therefore, I'm sure TfB are gonna do her some justice with some complementary pigtails and attire.

also those pupils

I think TfB intentionally made Spyro’s head a bit smaller, possibly to avoid making him look too much like a baby dragon, but it’s hard to tell to be honest.

It’s just an impression I’ve had since the reveal, even though his proportions looks correct from most angles.

I just assumed Sheila had added stuff because she'd otherwise be just a bog-standard Kangaroo. That worked when the characters outside of Spyro all had the consistent design stylings of Wade, but not so much when a bunch of artistic influence is at work and you don't know how it's going to end up changing.

His crest doesn't appear to be correctly centered on his head and his forehead is HUGE, so I think that's causing his head to look bigger? I think it looks okay but then again each cover is like 2 pixels big.

Biggest fear is seeing Ripto on that cover though, imagine his new design staring into your soul...

Meh, if we're talking about the covers I think they're kinda hit and miss. But pfft, looking back now I don't think I've liked the covers for a lot of the past games anyway (lookin at you, TEN and DotD).
I think Spyro in the remade GtG/RR looks pretty strange. I think his eye might be too small, and his head is just at a hard angle to get right, but hey, whatever, the cover art isn't the game, and I'm really picky and fussy when it comes to artwork anyway. X'D

So one thing I saw brought up on the Spyro Reddit, that I actually think is pretty interesting, is someone upscaling the image, and coming up with the theory that Shelia doesn't have hair, but actually is wearing some kind of bandana/headband.

[User Posted Image]

And I think I can actually see that?

[User Posted Image]

A bandana/headband is certainly something that more quickly jumps to mind in terms of being something in-character for Sheila, (at least to me), so possiblyyyy...

Not to change the subject, but I'm totally changing the subject. Which level from Year of the Dragon do you guys think they'll show (assuming they show one)? My vote is on Molten Crater for no real reason.

#3187 Posted: 03:05:32 16/07/2018
It would be nice if they showed Sunny Villa - it's a pretty iconic starting level plus there's a section where you play as Sheila so they have a chance show her off too. Same with Molten Crater, expect with Sgt. Byrd instead.

That's true! I would suggest Seashell Shore for that too, but I'd say they already showed off plenty of the swimming mechanics in the Idol Springs footage. I'd also like to see Cloud Spires, honestly, just for its aesthetic.

Oooh, I hadn't thought of the swimming mechanic! But yeah, since they showed it off in Idol Springs I'm not sure on that either. Heck, honestly any Sunrise Spring world is a decent contender to be shown off. All the ones that don't have the critters are really iconic and beautiful. Cloud Spires has desktop background potential, I can feel it.

This also makes me wonder what other Ripto's Rage stuff they'll show off. Levels that show off the hover, climb and headbash, but also aren't too late into the game. Glimmer, Hurricos, Fracture Hills?
