So, how many blatant cliches are in this game? I know there were a few in A New Beginning, and i don't know about this game. I don't gave it yet.

I can draw a cliche' from the title. 'Eternal Night' is really common in a lot of things. It's been in a lot of games, and even in a song. ("The world is black, like an eternal night") And even 'The Night of Eternal Darkness' came from a different game altogether! I'm not sure Krome knows about it, though.
What game?
Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem on the Gamecube. The 'Night of Eternal Darkness' in that is when one of the Ancients is summoned when the planets are aligned blah blah.


So. Anybody else found any cliche's? Though, to be honest, a Spyro game without a cliche' is barely a Spyro game.

well, i think that the whole cynder turning good and spyro falling for her is a cliche, though i don't mind they make a very cute couple

Yeah, I feel the same way. But the chessiness of it makes it cute, i think.

chessiness??



oh and Nayamou, nice avvie. whos it supposed to be

yeah i know, i found this site, you can find a link off of bored.com, anyway its a giant list of movie cliches its really funny

Manfred von Karma from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney on the DS. xD

^ okkkaaayyyy

I just edited the face. It's a good game, honestly. I'd recommend it.

well i dont have a ds

well, get a DS and Phoenix Wright. Now.

Oh gosh, this whole series is so clogged with cliches. But that's part of why I love it so; all the cliches make me laugh.

The elder Guardians are a cliche by their very existence. So is the Chronicler (he and Ignitus, especially Iggy, are the series' Obi Wan).

Spyro himself is a cliche (because the epic hero is officially a cliche in modern times; thanks George Lucas). Cynder as well; she's our maiden/princess/Darth Vader.

Sparx punching the parrot...cliche! But funny. The cowardly sidekick usually has at least one brave moment.

Both Cynder and Sparx take on the cliche role of being the hero's buddy (and love interest, in Cynder's case). Cynder being seemingly conflicted about her dual nature...

I could just go on and on.

According to the Creative Director, they are not related.

You're fighting a loosing battle, Zephyr. It's not your decision to make about Cynder and Spyro, the creative teams at both Krome and Amaze have already cleared this up. Stop spamming.

He's not fighting a loosing battle, he's fighting for a dead cause. >.>

I'd say he's just trolling.

Yep, that's it, HIR. You said it much better than I could.

I don't really notice cliches in a game, but I guess that's what makes it so great. The only game I do notice cliches is The Simpsons Game, but that's because the game points them out for you.

Enemies. Bosses. Final bosses. A storyline.



Abilities. Supernatural stuff. Levels. Menus. A level-up screen. Being a videogame. The camera following a certain character around.

Way more.

For me it's overall concept first, followed by careful story inspection enevitably followed by extensive cliche' list. That goes for just about anything I play/read/watch or write. But just 'cause I see them doesn't mean I care about them. Cliche's rock, how else can you form a coherent story.

Very true, how could one make an interesting game without the most overused cliche of all, how could it be intersting if nothing went wrong to be set right (at least from the perspective of the side you are playing on)?

If cliche is handled properly, it can be awesome. That's why I don't dislike the LoS games. They're riddled with epic cliches, but they're still unique in their own way and it's fun to see where things are going.

*anime style fall* x.x

Well HIR at least I'm not being a jerk about it!!!!

One more thing razz and HIR stop picking on me!!!!!

I really wish that you should stop posting these uneccesary comments.
And they are not picking on you. They are telling you what is really true.

How am I picking on you? By telling you the truth? Ooo, gosh, that's mean of me. *too sick to be polite anymore* >(

I posted a topic in the help section to see if Dark52 can do anything about them. They are starting to be a real pain!!
