You’ve made so much content around this one game, it would be cool to get you to find some of the devs and get them talking about the behind the scenes process of creating AHT. You find that type of content with a lot more popular games but I’m sure there’s some interesting stories behind this one too.
I actually have! You can read some of my discussions with them in this document: docs.google.com/document/d/1aj7qyaBELgIY-eoBMpr308pdgsv-bF8zF3tUYhuYR-M/edit?usp=sharing
Can you *believe* that the Professor, Gnasty Gnorc and Sgt. Bird are voiced by Michael Gough who also voices Ralof, Jarl Balgruuf, Alvor, Heimskr, Vilkas, Falk Firebeard etcetera from Skyrim? 😅
And also the Carmine brothers from the Gears Of War series. Lastly let's not forget his most infamous role he voiced Lord Saddler from the OG Resident Evil 4
I don't understand why they made the elders a bunch of senile old men in this game. I get that it was aimed at kids, but so was Spyro 1, and they were nowhere near as... peculiar as they are in AHT
Yeah, a few. Most are simply due to hardware differences, but a few gameplay changes were made too. There's no proper documentation on it anywhere yet, I'll probably add a section on The Cutting Room Floor sometime.
5:26 Here's a question. If you skip the Ball Gadget in the beginning (and dont get the 8 required light gems), by glitches or debug or whatever, what happens when you approach a ball gadget in another area, like the one in magma falls? Will the Professor pop up and tell you need 8 light gems?
The developers never implemented a barrier for the other ball gadget sections. In the any% speedrun, the Magma Falls ball gadget section is entered with no collectibles at all. Interestingly though, if you enter the first ball gadget from out of bounds with less than 8 light gems, it lets you play the level, but the game will softlock when reaching Dragonfly Falls.
@@EbbeAHT Thanks for the response. I assume that's not the case with the other two gadgets right? When you reach 24 light gems you unlock all invincibility pads at once. And when you reach 40 light gems you unlock all supercharge pads at once. Is that correct? (I assume im not forgetting a fourth gadget)
Yeah the ball gadget doesn't work the same as invincibility or supercharge, the 8 light gem restriction only applies to that first ball gadget level. For those other gadgets, they all unlock at once once you get the required amount and speak with the professor.
Well? Should he try again?
2:12 Gnasty: *complete gibberish* QWAAAAAAAA!!!
0:23 I think this voice inspired some of the dragons from the ledgend of Spyro
Gnasty spitting some gnasty bars
even beta Magnus was voiced by the same guy... interesting

@@EbbeAHT insane man hahaha thanks for sharing
Lots of meta gags in this one.
I feel like 1:53 , his VA was told to spout gibberish.
I haven’t heard Spyro’s AHT voice in a while so it came to that point I completely forgot what he sounded like xP the raspy voice, it spooked me!
Sparx voice is what scared me.
Gnasty Gnorc? Didn't I defeat that guy years ago?
I'm really appreciating these screencaps lol
3:15 I love how you posed the photo with Spyro charging at Moneybags 😂

Holy shit thats cool as
He also voiced Captain Price in Call of Duty, Call of Duty 2, and the Call of Duty 4 Pre-Alpha builds!
And also the Carmine brothers from the Gears Of War series. Lastly let's not forget his most infamous role he voiced Lord Saddler from the OG Resident Evil 4
I hope AHT ends up having as much cut content as ETD, just a game that keeps on giving with all new info never before seen!
Unlikely, considering EtD's development hurdles! But I'm certain there's more to come.
@@EbbeAHT True, I'm happy AHTs development seemingly went smoothly.
Another bit of Skyrim - Spyro trivia is that Andre Sogliuzzo voices Sparx as well as the male Khajiit.
should I try again
Gnasty’s last one caught me off-guard after listening to his slip into his language 😂
3:08 Photo taken a second before disaster 😂💀
I wish to learn this language
Jess Harnell did the voices for Spyro, Red, Moneybags, Titan, Astor, Magnus, Tomas & Hunter
Hunter too
Astor. absolute legend
Hey thanks for the Spyro FLACs buddy
I don't understand why they made the elders a bunch of senile old men in this game. I get that it was aimed at kids, but so was Spyro 1, and they were nowhere near as... peculiar as they are in AHT
thats really interesting. I wonder if these were translated & redubbed in the other languages before being cut
These were all translated and redubbed, yes.
"I've been the least helpful dragon elder so far" lol
If you didn't know, the Xbox emulator Xemu is playing the game really well now!
Yeah I've done a 100% playthrough on it. It has a lot of slowdown issues in places but it's impressive already.
@@EbbeAHT Are there documented diffrences between the three versions of the game?
Yeah, a few. Most are simply due to hardware differences, but a few gameplay changes were made too.
There's no proper documentation on it anywhere yet, I'll probably add a section on The Cutting Room Floor sometime.
@@EbbeAHT Niiiiceee ! I would love to watch that even be a video or youtube short one day.
Why is Mergatroid's line about not getting outside so relatable?

@@EbbeAHT thanks again!
Your channel is to spyro AHT what Nomad Colossus was to Shadow of the Colossus
can you make a video with all the Spyro soundtracks?
I think most people would have prefered those Magnus lines.
I wonder how people would feel if this game ever got remastered? Would certainly be better than an Enter The Dragonfly remake in my opinion!
Really wish they added some of the Moneybags lines cuz hearing the same 4 got really annoying
1:34
Cute pfp Ebbe
Why are all these better than some of the actual dialogue in the game?
Həļľø ťhĕřë
(After hearing Magnus' beta voice)
That thing's a guy?!
They made him much more flamboyant in the final release for some reason. It's odd, given how gruff he was in Spyro 1
