This is the point where Ignitus dies T_T I am quite disappointed noone uploaded this piece alone over here yet... I had to cut it myself out from other cutscene videos eheh... oh well ^^
0_0 ...I admit it too, Cynder's voice acting was TERRIBLE in this scene, she's supposed to be more heartfelt, more... -_- emotional. I mean, Ignitus DIES, Spyro fricking SNAPS, and she just goes "...Oh. Spyro, no... bad..." in a dead voice. 0_0 I loved it best when Mae Whitman did her voice in the smaller form, and when Cree Summer was basically the larger form of Cynder.
i came here to listen to gary oldman looool though i did get to play spyro when i was still little. my brother and i used to play the playstation together. x'D
@CrazyCat162 I agree wholeheartedly. After this scene, I turned off DotD for a while. Ignitus was my favorite character, and this cliche, in a game already full of them, was the last straw for me.
It happened in the second game. He gains dark power during the final boss fight and it's actually a gameplay feature you can use if you complete some challenges at the end. Problem is, it has no real relevance here in the third game where Spyro only let it manifest once out of anger. I mean, it's forgotten as easily as it's seen.
When I saw this the SECOND time, I was rather pissed off. Ignitus moves SO SLOWLY, and STOPS even. If he'd just kept moving (FUCK, they could've FLOWN), there'd be no reason for him to die. He was fighting earlier, no reason for it to be hard to fly through that.
@spyropurple Actually, he does die, but his spirit takes the Chronicler's place, so he does die but he's kinda reborn. Love this scene...but man did Cynder need better voice acting!
Yeah, as sad as it was to see Ignitus die, the reactions just seem off. Also doesn't help that Ignitus' in game model looks like he's perpetually smiling.
x.x I wish you could use the time thing like you could in the Eternal Night! Or like, Spyro should've been able to go back in time and saaave Ignitus by blowing Ice all over the fire. And here's another thing-why can't they freaking FLY over the fire? they're dragons! Fly through it? FLY OVER? I mean come on T.T and Cynder's like, "Let it go, your mentor and almost father just died." WHY? x.x or like, why couldn't Ignitus have just pushed through the rest of the fire with them? He was talking!
Now before anyone get's on my case and starts calling me a hater (which, let's face it, I probably am) I still like these games. The gameplay is solid, the plot is interesting but simple, and they even brought back my favorite character from the original series, Hunter (though they changed him so much that part of me died) my only peeve was with the voice acting, and how ironic the casting was. But now that that's off my chest, I will shut up... Who the hell is Christini Ricci?
@SuperDragonGamer tell me about it, and cynder sounded like a bitch in this cutscene. (Ignitus has a kickass voice actor, so thast's why he's such an epic character ♥)
I dont believe he die in the fire if you look closely he teleported in a blue flash of light and besides at the end he becomes the new chorincler so No he didnt die.
Wow, I've heard some really good things about these games. And i'm sure that there are many great and terrific qualities that make this series good. Plus the story in of itself is very interesting and well thought out, but goddamn that is terrible voice acting, there is almost never emotion (Cynder) or the emotion that is there is so fake (Spyro). Spyro, your voiced by godamn Elijah Wood for pete's sakes. You were Frodo Fricken Baggins, one of the most emotional parts in LotR. What happend!
Just had my mind blown when I listened really carefully during the Igntius' last words. The melody of "This Broken Soul" is playing in the background. Starts around 0:35. So cool!
Took me too many years to realize that (instrumental) This broken soul is playing in the part he dies. Makes it even sadder when we know that the song is about Spyro and Ignitus :-(
And Gary 'Commissioner Gordan/Sirius Black' Oldman is Ignitus! Don't get me wrong, this guy was one of the few good voice actors but, godamn, where did they get all these famous people. Who else is there... Wayne Brady, are you shitting me! Wayne Brady plays the bug. Who the hell voices Cynder? Christina Ricci! Wait... who's Christini Ricci? Oh wait, right, from... from... who's Christini Ricci? My point is, your all good actors, what happend!? Except you Mark Hamill (Malefor).
did it ever occur that maybe ignitus couldn't go any further without killing spyro and cynder. in desperation he sent them onwards without him. using his last strength to do so thus the reason he died from fire.
That ending sucked!!! First: Why the hell did they change the 4 Guardians appearances? I get they are supposed to look older but Ignitus looks like a frickn fire fish or something! Second: Gary Oldman didn't put as much effort into his voice like in the new beginning. Third: Why the hell didn't Ignitus say his motto? "May the Ancestors look after you, may they look after us all". That was his first words in A new beginning and they should have been his last. Another thing: Cynder didn't sound scared at all! She's just like 'Spyyyyrooohh nohhh" And Spyro should have been breaking down, almost crying! Ignitus was not just a mentor to him, he was like his Father. All in all I was very disappointed with Dawn of the Dragon. WAY to intense for Spyro with the end of the world and all. I like the exploring, flying and collectibles. Thats about it, other than that it was just messy. I think it was because of the new Developers.
