alright, time to yap for a long time, goodluck reading this: i think story is really important to the games, which is why i enjoy superchargers a lot. without the storyline in superchargers, you wouldn't have any idea why you're going to all these different places for specific things. an example of this is when you go to get lord stratosfear's lightning bolt staff to go to the scary skylands to save eon from count moneybone (i havent played skylanders superchargers in a while lol) my point is, without a storyline in the games, you wouldn't have any idea why you're doing everything in the game to stop the main evil.
I think there should be a distinction between the graphics and art style. SSA and Giants are lower poly and less graphically complex, but the art style they use is completely different than the rest of the series. Its a more dirty, less saturated, grounded approach. Where SF and onward is far more cartoony and bright. Personally I prefer the direction of the first two games, as it carries a little more weight and maturity
Watching and listening to Cloud’s points while agreeing with him for most of the video… Watching Cloud get absolutely wrecked in the racing near the end of the video 😭
My ranking is: Level Design/Levels (Best: Giants, Worst: Imaginators) General Gameplay feel/Enemy Design (It's practically the same for every skylanders game but superchargers 4 gameplay styles are fun and I love the dungeon crawling skylanders games) Bosses (Best: Trap Team, Worst: Imaginators) Side Content (Best: Swap Force, Worst: SSA) Figure Requirements for 100% (Best: Superchargers, Worst: Trap Team) Total Roster (and if they're balanced) (Best: Superchargers, Worst: SSA) New Roster (Best: SSA/Imaginators, Worst: Giants) Music (Best: Giants, Worst: Imaginators) Gimmick (Best: Swap Force, Worst: Giants) Story (Best: Superchargers, Worst: Imaginators) My game ranking is: Giants Superchargers SSA Swap Force Trap Team Imaginators
I say the most important thing that they need in Skylanders. Is Flynn. There’s a reason why Skylanders Academy season 3 is the best and it’s because it has Flynn.
I always prioritize gameplay and cast over the story/lore, I play world of warcraft and have for atleast 14 years now, and I can't say I know much of the lore/story 😂
Ok not hating on cloud breaker but the only reason story is in last is because Imaginators is his favorite (nothing wrong with that) but story is not the most important but it is still important more important than some other things on this list.
I think for me what make or break a skylanders game would be the balance of the skylanders I don't like imaginators or trap team because of how hard hitting certain skylanders are and weaker the old skylanders become I want to use older figures because I like them or when I bring a older skylanders to a new game they feel off or unplayable example swap-force prism brake or most swap-force skylanders in trap team
I would have the story be 1 of the 3 most important factors I often watch the cutscenes here on CZcams + without the story, SuperChargers is a weird mess
Ngl a more "mature" game would be excellent, i mean with a good story, because we fans of the franchise are grown ups now and by creating a good plot new players would come easier. Not just fans carried by nostalgia
Great list. Covered all the important things and while I love the music of the games, I suppose it doesn't have the priority of things like the roster. Also "Tar"

also people underestimate how good the levels, variety of different gameplay styles, music and graphics for superchargers are
I largely agree, all aspects of Skylanders are important especially the gameplay and the fun factor, the latter above all makes Skylanders amazing.

Same. It was a much better art direction.
I think everything is important. (Maybe not to much the music but I still love it) I feel like trap team does everything right.

My favourite is the character rosters and the gameplays
My ranking is:
Level Design/Levels (Best: Giants, Worst: Imaginators)
General Gameplay feel/Enemy Design (It's practically the same for every skylanders game but superchargers 4 gameplay styles are fun and I love the dungeon crawling skylanders games)
Bosses (Best: Trap Team, Worst: Imaginators)
Side Content (Best: Swap Force, Worst: SSA)
Figure Requirements for 100% (Best: Superchargers, Worst: Trap Team)
Total Roster (and if they're balanced) (Best: Superchargers, Worst: SSA)
New Roster (Best: SSA/Imaginators, Worst: Giants)
Music (Best: Giants, Worst: Imaginators)
Gimmick (Best: Swap Force, Worst: Giants)
Story (Best: Superchargers, Worst: Imaginators)
My game ranking is:
Giants
Superchargers
SSA
Swap Force
Trap Team
Imaginators
Kaos' theme from skylanders trap team is peak though
If Cloud would be a skylanders game, he'd be our favorite
Multiple modes for grinding and a never ending Arena. Trap Team and Imaginators forever
Wrong
The factor that decides whether a game is worth Your time or not is how much lines of dialogue Flynn’s got
For me the most important is the gimmicks in skylanders genre

I think a good game needs oil for sure😭🔥🙏

Actuall fun gameplay and level design (giants)
the storry in skylanders is he biggest storry of any kids game that i know

Level atmosphere is the most important, but it’s also very subjective
Yet another W CloudBreaker vid
Show off your skylander collection! 😉
We will have a new skylanders game soon
Can't wait for skylanders 7 releasing in 5 minutes
Probably will come in 2025 or 2026
Great list. Covered all the important things and while I love the music of the games, I suppose it doesn't have the priority of things like the roster.
Also "Tar"
I rate this list a solid 8.5 out of 10 🎉
I'll be honest I disagree with how you ranked gameplay elements alot.
what makes a skylanders game great? not being imaginators.
Yello everyone
