Longplay of Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly

[@longplayarchive]

It's crazy that I held this one off for so long. Over 550 GameCube titles completed and less than 100 to go, I figured that despite this game being a glitchfest and an annoying one to longplay, it was still likely going to be better than most of the other games I have left available. All in all, I enjoyed it quite a bit. I never played Spyro before aside from being over at a friends house when I was like 8. All the levels are colourful and fun, the enemies are unique to each stage and collecting the gems feels satisfying as the levels are quite linear. Common complaint about this game is that it's glitchy, which is true. For example, around 3:48:50 you can see a shadow on the ground. There's supposed to be a gem here. A bit further there's a vase that I broke previously, but respawned. Generally vases which you collected gems from don't respawn. When I tried breaking the vase, no gems came out.. but apparently it spawned the gem on the shadow from earlier back. It took me well over an hour to find this gem. Truth is, collecting a bunch of stuff in platformers is fun for casual gaming but it can be hell for recording longplays. Since the camera is running, I don't have hours to scout around stages and find any gems that I have missed. Not a single level was completed succesfully with all gems collected in the first run unfortunately and I had to waste a few minutes in each level to get a few of the missed gems. I'm happy with how the longplay turned out, as it's much quicker than some of the other footage online, but the gem part still bothers me. I can't prove it, but I wouldn't be surprised if some gems just didn't spawn or didn't register due to the glitchy nature of this game and it attributed to me not being able to successfully collect all gems in the first run. Lastly, regarding the gems, I killed Ripto before completing the game. Whilst it takes 100% Completion to battle the "ultimate" Ripto with 3 phases, you can already battle him much sooner too and by doing so you get the gem finder ability. It's not as cool as it sounds, as it's literally just your dragonfly pointing in the direction of the gem...Whilst it's not a necessary thing to do, the Gem Finder did really help me save myself from some frustration after spending over an hour in Honey Marsh looking for that final gem. I could've cut the battle out of the video as it's not very necessary content, but I felt like it was worth keeping in just for those who have trouble finding the last few gems in some stages. It's only a few minutes anyway.

my very first spyro game. i loved it so much, and still do. the twirling sound of the dojo enemies brings shivers down my spine.

[@israelmendez12]

I can still remember playing this game back in the summer of 2007. I thought it was interesting and this game was the first Spyro game I ever played with the classic Spyro the dragon style of gameplay.

[@Blaziken276]

I know this game gets a lot of hate, but to me I really liked the game and do consider it a true sequel to the original trilogy. Every time I think of this game the first thing that comes to mind is the level Crop Circle Country.

[@christocream]

Words cant explain how bad enter the dragonfly is. The game is so short and broken and just off it feels like a unfinished prototype, just a test build to get an idea of what the game should be

[@picklelord2048]

Just beat it and yeah it def deserves the hate it’s terrible 😭 garbage level design, fuck that damn tower in Jurassic jungle, the final boss is a joke, it lags n glitches, 4/10 game imo

[@bmac2814]

Agreed. It's just as fun as the original trilogy, which everyone agrees is great. This game just suffers the same problem that Crash Bandicoot: Wrath of Cortex did. It was a sequel that didn't try anything "new" or "different." People act like every sequel, at least after the 2nd or 3rd, has to innovate, which is dumb as hell. Especially in this or the other games case that I mentioned. They were going from one generation to the next, and the increase in graphics is enough. I found this game to be really fun and encourage those on the fence to give it a try themselves. To form their own opinion and not just follow the popular belief.

[@TravistheDragon]

It’s pretty sad to see what this game turned out to be. I’m not shaming the developers since I know they were doing their best with this game. It’s universal’s fault for forcing the developers to release the game in time for the holidays. As a Spyro fan myself, I can agree with a lot of people that this is definitely the worst game in the franchise and it’s definitely the game that negatively affected Spyro as a franchise. Hopefully a new Spyro 4 won’t be botched up like ETD. Because I want the developers to do their best on it.

[@OliverLoganBlue]

Universal Can Go F**K THEMSELVES!!!! I HATE THEM SO MUCH!!!!!!!

[@masterdrewt6698]

Well as self aware as I am for the spyro franchise. What makes you think this game is really worst? I mean sure this does have something to do with Universal being forceful to the series. But between Activision owning spyro is Way WAAAY Worst than anyone would imagine.

[@cameronstevens8796]

Not gonna lie, I thought I was going to hate the game because of how hard the challenges were as a kid and thought about throwing the game out, but somehow, after a few years later, I finally managed to complete the game 100%. So this game gave me a lot of memories. Some bad, but most of them good, because in the end, I've had fun playing this game. If a remake of this was made like reignited Trilogy, without any bugs, glitches or rushed development, then I'd play it, again.

[@Sam-rc7wd]

I remember being so excited for this game as a kid, and then I realized very quickly that something was askew with this game 😂

Maybe a proper Spyro 4. One that is set after the events of Year of the Dragon and before Enter the Dragonfly (or the events of EtD can be erased from the canon timeline of the classic era, because of how bad it was). The events of A Hero's Tail would still be canon.

Ay god, had this game not been HORRENDOUSLY RUSHED, I’m sure this game could’ve turned out SICK AF.💔💔💔 No fault towards the devs, though. They were pretty much forced to rush development, unfortunately. >__>)🌀 Although, despite all the glitches, and flaws, I still low-key hold this game close to my heart. My dumb, nostalgic-ass still loves it to an extent. It holds a lotta good times and memories. :’DD

[@idkidk4334]

Probably would have the graphics like in heros tail

[@WillieManga]

This is really unfortunate. I guess since they couldn't get Gnasty Gnorc into the game they decided to just reference him. Poor guys; it really seems like they were passionate about working on a Spyro game since it plays mostly like the original trilogy despite its lack of polish. Despite being the Sonic 06 of Spyro, I can't in good conscience place it among the absolute worst games I've ever played, especially since I liked playing it as a kid. As a caveat, I played the Gamecube version, and I don't know how the PS2 version compares, but I'm guessing most of the issues people hated about it was in the latter release. Now, Spyro Orange on the other hand... I can't work around it, it's an inexcusable trash fire, and while I am not against anyone who may like that game, I am pretty sure people like it much less than Enter the Dragonfly.

There’s no special reason for it really, it’s just that I only own a GameCube and N64 so a lot of the uploads from this generation tend to be on the GameCube system. There are a platformers done on the PS2, but not many, as the only person who plays PS2 platformers doesn’t upload as frequently and also doesnt play just platformers. - I’m hoping for more Xbox exclusives in the future..

Since you are team, and probably there is the creator, your can look how to divide the money through the time to buy consoles. Is this difficult? Because this idea certainly was considered by you. The other common alternative is to create a "meet your host player", where you livestream sometimes, get the money from the donations, and then delete the live. I don't know, but I appreciate your effort.

[@longplayarchive]

Appreciate the ideas a lot. We had a Patreon but removed it as nobody had any interest in becoming a Patron even at over a 100k subscribers. Most of our views come from people who randomly stumble upon the videos, so it makes things a bit difficult. All I can do is just ask people not to use adblock. I also thought about letting members stream on the channel but I’ve been very hesitant as it’s such a big thing and it’s sometimes very scary to experiment with new things on a channel that’s growing pretty well! There’ll be more monetizing methods available in the future which we hope to make use of. Just waiting for KZbin to roll them out
