The Dragon's Death Knell (Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly Retrospective)

[@RaspberryPastry]

This was the first game where looking at it I finally understood and appreciated the skill and care that goes into making a game look like the original three, because looking at this game for too long feels like reality is melting

[@emeraldwind4897]

Spyro: Enter the dragonfly is like the Sonic 06 of Spyro games.

[@chaosemerald7654]

YES

[@alexklubertanz6291]

I remember as a kid I would always run into this glitch that slowed the game down 3X and I thought it was so funny to sprint around in slow mo. Life was simpler back then lol

[@crashtefano]

Somehow Spyro Enter the Dragonfly isn't even my least favorite game in the series, but despite personal preferences, it still is pretty much the worst thing that could happen to Spyro for a mainline installment on home consoles right after the success of the original 3 games.

[@davreviews4162]

At the very least, Enter the Dragonfly manages to not be the train wreck that is Spyro Orange.

[@montanajackson3713]

This was the first spyro game I ever played. I hated the long loading screens and always got lost in the levels. I wish a hero’s tale was my first spyro game instead.

[@roblammens]

Enter the Dragonfly was my first Spyro game LOL. When I played it as a kid I just thought I was bad at it because it kept breaking and making me lose.

[@ExtremeWreck]

This feels like a Nitro Rad video, but with the vibe of Meltingman234. I like that combination.

[@Kiri68419]

I played this a lot as a kid and the only problem I ever ran into was the long load times. No actual glitches just happening. Is my copy 'blessed' or something?

[@davreviews4162]

I guess I only encountered a lot of graphical glitches, but there was nothing terribly game-breaking.

[@shoftim]

Really hoping for a re-make !!!

[@Deadlock21]

I really liked enter the dragonfly but! Hear me out! .... it was my first spyro game i played. My fav is heros tale though. Edit: I am your 100 subscriber yay

[@R1ngbanana]

this was a great video on a not great game! Nice work

[@dsmoothb]

I'm pretty sure after you pay money bags 200 gems the gems just get returned to you.

[@christocream]

I disagree, the level design in this game is shit. In some games like mario 64 you dread the water stages, well in this game I dread every stage all of them and all the minigames. I think about each level and think about how I never want to play that again and each world gets worse and worse. It takes about 15 minutes to 100% a level but its so awful it feels like i been playing for 3 hours. This game doesnt even feel like a beta build it feels like im playing an alpha build that was scrapped together with concepts that was written down to prepare it for the beta build. In the atlas there is unreleased art for worlds and on the back of the game box that picture of spyro with ice breath isnt even in the game and the breath doesnt freeze people like that

[@meretrix]

Did the people who animated Food Fight! animate this game? Just awful.

[@davreviews4162]

If only Check Six Studios had more time...

[@JOE_BIDEN_GAMING17]

69th like 😏

[@MrJohnlennon007]

Great video! Wish the game came out better than it did. Also was one of your original subs and you’ve really come a long way editing wise :)

[@davreviews4162]

Yeah, I remember you. Thanks for being subbed for so long to the channel!🙂

[@gaw0046]

congrats on 100 subs

[@zacharykenniston748]

Wtf did spyro just actually lose his skin when he hit the lava?

[@juanpablochaconvargas6919]

Everyone hates this Spyro but i like it

[@evodolka]

this was actually my 1st spyro game, i remember some glitches but i don't remember ever having the frozen glitch or the platforms eating my jumps glitch, i just remember long loading, races being absolute bull, and a glitch were if you did a horn dive on the very edge of a body of water you can swim in the air

[@davreviews4162]

The swimming in the air glitch was also in Spyro 2 and 3 as well.

[@evodolka]

@@davreviews4162 and yet I see people praise those 2 games while calling enter the dragonfly bad because of it

[@GreyDuovis]

I got this game as a kid after worshipping year of the dragon. I didnt really understand that a spyro game could he bad, so I played it in good faith for a very long time. I was really confused that their was only one hub world but thought that it had to be a better game because spyro had lightning breath. Idk, i still have a soft spot for this game but maybe thats because i remember it without the loading times. I think ultimately im resentful of the game because it killed the spyro formula i loved so much. I would have been so happy if they just kept remixing the formula they built in spyro 1, 2, and 3. But maybe im just looking at those with rose tinted glasses.

[@Jackbat69]

This is my favorite spyro game i loved all of them on gamecube.

[@davreviews4162]

Even though I disagree, I respect your opinion. I know that TGX Game Reviews also likes this game. I think it depends on how you look at it. There is a good game in ETD somewhere; unfortunately it's muddled down with glitches and a lack of polish.

[@Jackbat69]

@davreviews4162 iv hear the ps2 version is way worse with bugs and stuff on gc the only big ones I know of are swimming in the air and getting to the final boss in like 10 seconds from the start.

[@gamerhero9559]

11:32 That was my reaction lol

[@codymerrell5387]

I don’t like to sound harsh on Spyro’s games But yes Enter The Dragonfly was the first Spyro game that bombed and A Hero’s Tail Wasn’t any better so it shows more results Why the New SPYRO 4 Needs to turn out Better And where Gen 4 Spyro Reflects from Reignited Spyro But Gen 4 Spyro’s Wings wouldn’t turn out too gigantic But Large enough so Spyro can keep His ability to Fly Anytime Any Level Without Limitations but with New Rewarding Challenges Boss Battles & Upgradeable Qualities That should be Researched Invented and taking place in the new SPYRO 4 Spyro is a Dragon he has Wings he should actually use them
