7 Gritty Reboots That Were Trying Too Hard

[@timothymclean]

My favorite gritty reboot was Sandpaper. Previously only good for taking notes, now a vital part of every carpentry project I've taken on.

[@timothymurauzi5144]

Fellow Timothy Hi.. lol :)

[@squiddymcsquidface3097]

Well done. I give you a single clap. Just one.

[@delpantion6045]

Timothy McLean but that "gritty" reboot worked perfectly!!!! People like me who actually work with their hands love sand paper a thousand times more than the original

[@carrickschwartz5503]

You sir have earned my like

[@callumjapp544]

Brilliant lmfao

[@rashkavar]

To be fair to Warrior Within, from a pure gameplay standpoint, it was the best of the Sands of Time trilogy. More varied and less grindy combat than the first game, less Vizir Butterfly puzzle bosses than the last game. Large areas to explore with a focus on learning the areas instead of just passing through once. The Dahaka chases that have you racking your brains at times to figure out how to platform your way out while running from one of the more alarming creatures in gaming at the time. Also, from a story perspective, I liked the idea that the Empress of Time was creating the Sands of Time in hopes of finding a way to not get murdered by the guy who wants to kill her to stop her from creating the Sands of Time. Tragic irony is fun!

[@mar_speedman]

It all just proves that violence isn't the answer lol

[@84Yeratel]

yeah, I don't really think Warrior Within fit in this list tbh...

[@gur262]

Not in my mind. Liked the 3rd best. Nice balance. Missed the bright feel and the nice palace in the second.

[@Rattchen]

From my perspective, Warrior Within was the best game of the three. It had a compelling story, the best combat mechanics, puzzles in nearly every room and the tone that was never replicated in any of the POP games so far. I also liked The Two Thrones, due to similar combat mechanics but still, I deem Warrior Within to be the superior one.

[@t.jockel25]

i totally agree. I played it several times with total joy, but as more dissapointed i was from the 3 PoP. But still played it heaps coz fanboy :3

[@beholdnonsense5100]

If you think about it, Outside Xtra is like a gritty reboot of Outside Xbox, except when they were writing down the concept for it, they accidentally mistook "morbid" for "adorbs" or something.

[@pcport2698]

Too accurate.

[@coyoteone6197]

It's like a gritty de-boot. Like back in the 80s when they made a kid's cartoon out of "Rambo", a film series about a traumatized veteran who embodied the national scars of the Vietnam War. Fun, kids!

[@piyam5000]

So many adult/teen movies got the cartoon treatment :/

[@KerwinmusicNL]

Hmmm, with Oxtra's love of cats, someone probably misread Gritty Reboot as Kitty Reboot.

[@murphythelatecomer4608]

Eh, I think it’s more like a lighter and softer spin-off that actually winds up being just good as the original show.

[@SwordSaint892]

I love how Jane can't say "I'm too cool for this" with a straight face.

[@eoghanfeighery7383]

[@honeyroastridgman4301]

[@johngervais230]

Say what you will about The Legend of Spyro, but you have to admit, Cynder, both corrupted and free, is a pretty cool character. From her design, to her backstory, to her abilities, she is an amazingly underrated character.

[@Wandergirl108]

Agreed, 100%! Also I personally don't think TLoS is all that gritty. Maybe the story is actually supposed to be taken seriously, unlike the originals, but it's still colorful and magical, and honestly, a story that's supposed to be taken seriously isn't a bad thing.

[@hetalianotaku7103]

@@Wandergirl108 As someone who grew up with the originals, I got the first TLOS game when I was 12/13, I was willing to give it a chance, and even then I thought it played repetitively and thought it was trying too hard. It's fine if you like it, but there's a reason it's divided the fanbase. Plus Spyro's redesign was a bit of a turn-off.

[@michaw.2168]

I didn't even know there was a dark sequel spyro 😳😳 maybe they bring it back with better handling

[@yoda908]

I was kinda split on the LOS series with growing up with the original trilogy. The original is remembered more also because of how world engaging the levels were. It had skateboarding, underwater racing, boxing against a yeti and even hockey just to name a few. What I didn't like was when Spyro became a gimmick in the skylander series.

[@kosmosstormstrike3438]

I also agree with this statement, she is extremely underrated, what really ruined spyro for me was when he was put into skylanders like my lord he and cynder looked ugly in that

[@A.Tag90]

Oh man, Mike is so cool that he forgot to care about coming in to work.

[@Raven1024]

Warrior Within was actually my favorite of the Sands of Time trilogy. Also it wasn't a reboot at all, it was just a sequel.

Likewise. It was a rare case of a game series changing direction and getting better.

[@joevenespineli6389]

@@blue-pi2kt well gameplay wise perhaps.

[@donovanfaust3227]

Yes it's a direct sequel but it is also a soft reboot, set in the same universe but style and tone completely changed. Similar to Batman Forever, Jurassic World, or Mad Max Fury Road.

STORI-01 I think you will find that the original comment used the word "radical" in its correct meaning and in proper context. Also, just so you know the word is still in use in that (correct) form. Example: when they talk about "radical" terrorists on the news, that does not mean that the terrorists are rad skaters, performing sick kick-flips and whatnot. /snark

Psst, guys...? ...Shadow the Hedgehog wasn't a reboot. It was just a weird spinoff. (Also, some kind of irony for saying 'if you weren't thinking that, you must not have worked at SEGA'. Shadow the Hedgehog was made in response to fans demanding a 'darker and edgier' Sonic game where Sonic 'had a gun'. You can actually, legitimately blame fans for the fact that Shadow the Hedgehog, the game, exists-- and that the character survived Sonic Adventure 2. He was actually supposed to die at the end of the game, but fan outcry caused Sonic Team to find a way to un-kill him. Oh yeah also Sonic Adventure 2 originally intended to straight-up kill a character by hurling him through the void of space and burning him to death atmospheric re-entry, after his backstory was all about getting vengeance on humanity for murdering a sick ten-year-old in a hail of gunfire because she sacrificed herself to get him to safety. The whole Sonic Adventure series was the franchise's gritty reboot, really.)

[@TurtleDragonSilent]

But Sonic Heroes already unkilled him.

[@isabeltheacegal3384]

Chaos Shadow RIGHT!!!

[@everythingyoucantouchandse6786]

wasnt shadow the hedgehog cannon though? like i know its a spinoff but the game still affects the overall story right?

[@icemonitorlizard]

Shadow the hedgehog was riding on the hype from the best sonic game; sonic adventure 2 battle. So no it wasn't a reboot. It was, however, one of the first in the long list of mistakes Sega has tried to pass for sonic games since.

[@apurpledragon]

Looking past the cheesy lines in Adventure 2, Shadow's baclstory is quiet tragic and sad.

Shadow the Hedgehog wasn't even a reboot, but putting that aside its one of my favorite games.

It made me like him more and understand him, he just does whatever he feels he has to get what he wants.

[@CabooseRvb509]

Trying too hard? I always thought that Shadow the Hedgehog was a subtle parody. 'This is easier than taking candy from a baby, which is fine by me!' 'No, Shadow, I AM your father!' 'DAMN, not here' 'Now Doctor, you're going straight to hell!' I mean, Sean Schemmel voiced the evil bad guy. Kamehameha, Shadow...

[@simonbriggs203]

Lots of people are saying it in the comments, and I'll say it too. The Legend of Spyro was my jam back when I first bought and played Dawn of the Dragon (before any of the other two). People are still to this day ignoring the fact that he used the “puny god” move four years before it was cool, and used a chain to prevent split-screen and provide cool gameplay features in single player and coop which would be later evolved in Astral Chain (makes me want to play Dawn of the Dragon again due to that vibe). Not to mention it had great music, and in Dawn of the Dragon it spared us the embarassment of falling to our deaths every few minutes despite having wings meant for flying. When you consider it the bosses in the franchise went from a coward who would only run from you and took two hits to defeat to a hoard of rock and lava giants and a dragon version of Ganondorf. Not to mention Cynder who became a fan-favorite people are asking for in a sequel to the Reignited Trilogy to replace Enter the Dragonfly and anything after it. Though not perfect due to time and budget restraints for all three games, it was still great for what it was for new and returning audiences who felt it was fair that Spyro would only grow up with its audience. Thanks to reignited I'm glad I finally know what made him special in his classics, I will always love both of those trilogies, and I hope the Legend of Spyro at least gets considered for the same treatment that the originals received. And need I mention that classic Spyro burns innocent sheep alive for his own benefit instead of buy armour so he doesn't have to? It's pretty dark when you think about it that way. Does that make both of them gritty?

[@AikawaJin]

The Legend Of Spyro trilogy was actually pretty good imo

Prince of Persia Warrior Within was the best game in the series, what the hell are you talking about?

They are talking about a game they most likely never played. After playing PoPWW, all the other games in the series seemed weak by comparison. When Godsmack was playing in the background, you felt like a total beast; but then when the Dahaka was after you, it was time to run like a scared b!tch,,,,,,,,,,,,and that switch-up made the game feel more realistic and involving.

[@CyberneticHusky]

I still don’t know how skylanders managed to completely change the art design of the character and made us except that they we’re technically Spyro games even though he was not a main character at all

Didn't play Legend of Spyro, but if they do a remaster of the original trilogy I'm there for it!

[@MrEasyNah]

djpheeze Good news, then...

[@penumbraaeterna1140]

Well now there is a remaster of the trilogy!!

Warrior Within (and Two Thrones) was a dope addition to the PoP franchise. The 360 reboot of PoP was an actual reboot, and I loved it! Got 1,001 lights.
