What HAPPENED to DISNEY INFINITY?

[@TroyLeavitt]

I was the Game Director for four different Disney Infinity playsets: (Lone Ranger, Avengers, Inside Out, and Finding Dory) and I very much appreciate this video. One additional fun fact about Disney Infinty is that after Avalanche was closed by Disney, it was later reopened under WB's management. The development team then went on to create Hogwarts Legacy. So, kind of a happy ending after all. :)

[@OvalCreations]

Glad to have you here sir. Avalanche gave the gaming community absolute gems. Thank you for your service

[@hellboundchaoscommand7567]

On the one hand I’m sad Disney closed Avalanche down but on the other without it we wouldn’t have gotten Hogwarts Legacy so…

Hello were there ever any plans for ms marvel (kamala khan) and miles morales to be in Disney infinity? since Nova is in the game, it would’ve been so cool that the legacy trio from champions team were there.

[@AgentExeider]

I always felt that Disney should have pivoted away from the "Toys-to-life" model, since it was dying and focused more on the content generation aspect of the game, moving to digital versions of the various assets just to keep the "Toys" model going if that is what was needed to keep the suits happy. I even tracked down James Pitaro and tried to convince him to consider doing that, and moving in the direction that Roblox was going. I basically was told to "eff off". The irony here is now disney is buying into Epic and Fortnite and are basically planning on remaking Disney Infinity with and focus as a content creation engine. Spending 10 times the money they could have saved, and have owned the company outright producing it and have BEEN doing it these last 7 years. Such a shame.

[@drywallpuncher1882]

I think the biggest issue was the fact they keep releasing a new Disney infinite game every year. I stopped playing cause my parents kept complaining about how they had to spend money to get figures. And being a kid who had no money I ended up stop playing.

[@zackerydennison757]

I remember the day the game franchise got canceled. It sucked because it was me and my younger brother’s favorite game to play together but there was a bright side. I was working a part time job and couldn’t afford the (from what I remember) 11-13 dollar price for each character but when the game got canceled a week or so later the finding dory world came out and I thought I’d get it for my brother and it was 7 dollars and better yet the single characters were like 3 bucks. I grabbed like 10 of them and the smile on his face seeing them all. We played for hrs and the game didn’t die in our house for like 2yrs after the game series died. We had almost every character by the end because they dropped to like 2 bucks on game stop and every check id let him pick 10( i mean like 20 bucks a week is worth happiness) just to see his giant smile. This game will forever be part of my heart

Honestly I think they care more about their games nowadays than they do the movies and TV shows they’re putting out. Everybody knows that when there’s a new Star Wars thing there is a 98% chance it’s gonna suck. But look at how everybody reacted when they casually decided that Marvel versus Capcom deserves to live again. The entire gaming community was ecstatic. If you get people more excited for 20-year-old fighting games than you do for your newest big budget TV series, I think it’s fair to assume the gaming division gets more love.

0:30 fun fact actually, they built Disney Infinity using the previous engine from their older games such as Toy Story 3 and Cars 2, but more interestingly, used the already existing Toy Story 3 game as a base to build on top of. There are many leftovers from that game in the files and some similarities between the two such as in the character movesets.

As someone who never played this game, I'm sad that they didn't try dropping the physical aspect and just start treating it like a normal game with DLC & Expansion Packs. Yeah that sounds dumb when the whole point was buying figures to use as characters but fans were very vocal about the game aspect of Disney Infinity which meant there was still a market they could sell to. The game itself wasn't failing, it was a change in the market regarding physical figures rendering the production side a loss, so if you cut that part out then you just have to focus on selling the game. It probably would've still failed as kids & parents get confused on if they need to buy the physical figures or not but at least 4.0 could've had a chance to release as well as give the game a chance to make a profit again.

With me and my brother, Completing the Star Wars playsets, Playing Marvel Battlegrounds, & making toy box worlds were My brother will play Anakin Skywalker & Me playing Spider-Man. When I heard that the news in May of 2016 that they're canceling Disney Infinity, just imagine how much that breaks my heart, knowing that they won't be able to produce more Disney, Pixar, Marvel, & Star Wars characters.

[@perfectpasta3155]

I really wish that Skylanders and Lego Dimensions could get a release in the same vein as the Steam release of Disney Infinity. If you buy Disney Infinity on Steam today, you can get all 3 games with all the content released for them(minus a small chunk of Disney Infinity 3.0, I think anything released after The Force Awakens playset, but that is still a ton of content imo) and from a preservation standpoint, that is GENUIS!! I mean if you wanna revisit Skylanders with all of its content, you have to have a console it was on, the portal for that game, and the figures for that game. If you want to play LEGO Dimensions you need to do the same AND pray the NFC tags still work because a lot of mine from my childhood just don’t work anymore.

No one seems to talk about the compatibility aspect of these games. If you join the game (Infinity/Skylanders or Dimensions) after a few years, you have to do so much research about which characters work with which game. It may seem obvious that 3.0 characters don't work with 1.0, but it is hard to keep track of all of that if you join in year 2 or 3 rather than from the beginning. If the shop/online shop doesn't list each characters edition then you can easily buy the wrong product. I think Toys to LIfe could work if the developers promise to patch in new characters to old games, so that you can buy whatever you want and not have to worry about wasting your money on incompatible products.

I stil play it now, i have a massive box full of nearly all the characters. I started playing it after i got it for Christmas in 2015. Idk but i wanted it after asking my mum for it after seeing it advertised on a dvd. I got 3.0 and i never stopped playing throughout my childhood, now near the end, i still wont let it go its so nostalgic and theres something nice about how simple it is and how much fun i had

Skylanders was no competitor to Disney Infinity, Disney Infinity was a competitor to Skylanders and Skylanders won by a long shot. Skylanders was always the top dog!

[@OvalCreations]

No matter how bad a company in the same genre as you is performing, a smaller or a larger business is always your competitor. That's why monopolies are quick to shut down smaller business and keep higher barriers to entry , any smaller or worse performing business can take over in the long term

[@itsjustluca2308]

​@OvalCreations True but I do have to disagree with your statements in the video stating that it was disney infinity who popularised the toys to life genre. It was very much Skylanders who made the toys to life genre a mainstream thing and only after their success did competitors like disney infinity and lego dimensions pop up

[@OvalCreations]

@@itsjustluca2308 yes i got that wrong in the video

good memories , what did you ever do to the figures?

[@sometf2player752]

@@OvalCreations they are stored away in a cupboard under my tv still in relatively good condition I have quite a lot of them I remember playing a lot of the incredibles and pirates of the Caribbean mode though with the latter I was unable to progress after a certain point because my game was softlocked I also remember exploring around the monsters university world I also remember seeing a mobile port of I think 2.0 that had a normal character select screen rather than the toys to life gimmick overall though I think this game is one of the reasons why I got so interested in making map design in video games

I remember when I was younger and watching the commercials. I thought it was kind of like gmod, but officially Disney where you could do literally whatever you wanted in an open world sandbox.

Disney killed Disney infinity

[@OvalCreations]

@ultimate_pleb it's almost sadly not their fault , they were at the wrong place at the wrong time. The world quickly shifted to digitalized items so quick because of fortnite and the battle pass system that's Disney couldn't possibly keep up. If they did , they probably had to revamp the whole toys to life genre or put out a completely different game which is fully digital and shut down Disney infinity

[@LastyGhost]

Since its launch, the game accompanied me during the Wii U era. My brother and I originally agreed to only collect two figurines per Playset (albeit Lone Ranger only had two characters) and it was like that until we traveled to Orlando, when the game became my obsession. We both were into Skylanders back in the day as well, so our money went off our savings when we saw the characters we wanted. Except, I, with Disney Infinity... kind of became a perfectionist, and proposed to collect all the Playset figures I could. I never completed the Incredibles playset, the three Marvel ones (four if the one from 3.0 is included), or Rise Against the Empire (never got Han Solo), but I still put a lot of money into the franchise. I felt I threw away all of the money spent when I learned the franchise got cancelled before 2017; thus, would never find its way to Switch (albeit Skylanders Imaginators had a port in there and the figures worked by scanning them on the controllers' points, much like amiibo; right JoyCon and Switch logo in the Pro Controller). By 2023, I got rid of the figures I had preserved, because they would never find use ever again, and I no longer felt anything about them; not even a speck of melancholy, considering one of the characters I held onto was Sadness. Despite everything, I still wonder what could've been of the game to this date, now that we have more films/universes and extended franchises; I can't stop imagining Coco, Encanto, Luca, or the new emotions from Inside Out 2, in the Disney Infinity style. (But now that Disney owns more companies, it would've probably been a bigger mess.) One thing I'll never understand is how and why Tonto was my go-to character for most, if not all, my Toy Box adventures. I never saw the film, nor did I see the original Lone Ranger show, so I didn't (still don't) have context of the character. What could have been in him that wasn't in the characters I know about...?
