As of writing this section of the video i'm kind of not sure how this skylanders fan game/story is going to play out, but if there's anything else i have to say, i am extremely excited to expand upon this fan story and see how far i can actually go, but with that said and done, thanks for dropping by!
Like always, hit the subscribe button if you enjoy content like this, share this around so i can grow as a channel, leave some comments down below to not only make the Algorithm happy, but suggest your own ideas for Return To Skylands, and i will see you all in the next video, it's going to be a fun one!
Oh my god I love this. The idea of unlocking skylanders with soul gems and being able to use the D-pad to select skylanders is such a good idea and provides a really good sense of balance. I also like the story of the prologue. Not only have I always wanted skylanders to have dialogue between each other, but including the ice queen from Chill's backstory and acknowledging that she was kidnapped and Chill was searching for her is a really nice attention to detail. Having skylander's backstories fleshed out in game is something I didn't even know I wanted. It's clear you did a lot of research and planning into this video and I have huge respect for it. I'm super excited for the next part for whenever that comes out. Keep up the good work, you got some serious talent when it comes to storytelling and even game design
It feels so weird to have Skylanders actually be a part of the story. But I'm looking forward to the rest of this series
I like it tbh.
"Good luck little Timmy."
Excellent line 👌
I always thought it would be cool if the characters would be unlockable in game, and then for marketing, they could make the Skylanders action figures. The fact they never had action figures always seemed like a big miss in my opinion
You had me won over with the Soul Gem/scrapping the Portal concept.
That’s EXACTLY what I’ve been thinking recently for a SSA remaster.
My only differences was having the Magic Items set to down on the D-pad; so you take three Skylanders into a level instead of four, and you would not be able to change Skylanders per level in the main hub - maybe by visiting Eon or something.
Here’s some ideas, we could use a level where we fight Gorilla Goos as enemies, maybe make it the ruins of Grilla Drilla’s kingdom, also Arkeyan levels, Ancients levels, a Wilikin level, maybe a level entirely made of candy set in the Chocolate Ocean referenced in Giants with candy and soda themed enemies and gingerbread men, a futuristic city level set in a distant part of Skylands, also maybe a level set where the Skylander has to go inside a Giant monster and fight their way through the creature’s body. Also a have Evilon return for revenge, that would be cool. Oh also do something with Gigantus to explain what happened to him and where he’s been all this time. He went missing after jumping into a Chompy Pit in Time of the Giants over 10,000 years ago. Also have Story Scrolls and introduce Skystones at some point around level 4 or 5.
I love this story , you are literally re igniting the skylanders spark, we need the rest of the story
Soul gems to unlock actual Skylanders is pretty clever. I like it.
I do have the new gimmick Skylanders being the scrapped shapeshifters(swappable hears, arms, legs, and body)., id call them the Mixer-Uppers.
my idea for a Skylanders 7, would be Skylanders Weapon Masters
story summary: sometime after Kaos was defeated by the Imaginators and Senseis, he menaged to escape with his Portal Master magic, and unlike usual he doesn't show his giant floating head, he has learned and stays low, hidden, and for years (the same ammount as in the real world) and the Skylanders have been searching for him nonstop, resulting in Eon sending new Skylanders your way
new Skylanders: 20 Weapon Masters (who have the power to turn magic items into weapons), 10 new Cores, 10 special cores, 10 scrapped Skylanders brought back as Scraplanders and 2 guest characters (Shovel Knight and Elora)
levels: 10 big open areas to explore and do missions in (missions for each type of Skylander), with a mid-boss arena attached, behind that arena is a 2nd big area before you face the level boss (and you return to these several times), each level is themed after an element, with a Kaos themed one being unlocked at the end
I'm fairly sure this idea will be hated on, but I would be interested to see how the past 9 years has affected some of the characters in terms of age. For example, I think a cool thing would be for the dragon characters (Spyro, Cynder, Drobot, Bash, Sunburn, etc) to take on appearances more reminiscent of the adult dragons from the reignited trilogy. Without Master Eon to guide them, they've had to grow into the leaders the Skylanders need. Other cases could be Pop Fizz having more control over his beast mode, or for Tree Rex to have more foliage to form a beard or something.
I really like the story you came up, I also really like that the skylanders are just interacting with each other and not just something for us to control. Would really like to see more of it
I like the idea of Eon’s spirit being destroyed in some kind of sacrifice
Like Zordon in the finale of Power Rangers In Space
This.was.AWSOME! The story and game play feel nostalgic and familiar but also new and fresh for the series, I loved how you included sources from chills backstory along with your way of story telling I can’t wait for next part keep up the great work
I would definitely play this game, it not only expands on the story of Skylands but also adds new mechanics that I think were lacking in the main games like banter between skylanders and how they actually work together
This is amazing! Also, suggestion: Eon should be retired so he can make a cameo appearance later on
Alright, fanmade Skylander sequels, my jam! 0:30, I feel all of your pain with explaining changes and all that.
Hope you make ore because this is awesome.
Quick changing through the D-Pad
Close enough welcome back Ben 10 video games
This would be awesome. Being able to play all the skylander even if you don't own them would be amazing for a returning game.
oh god this video feels like a manga, i need to know what happens next and i would wait ten thousand years to see the next part
(a suggestion for this is adding in certain npc's from previous games like spellslamzer and giving them small side quests you can do to get certain collectibles and hats but also have certain quests clash with each other like making count moneybones have a quest to rob someone but a skylander like robow gives a quest to arrest the count so he can be taken to a rebuilt cloud cracker prison. also eon should be alive, but on his last legs so that midway through the story he can die setting up a new plot point)
Unlocking Skylanders at the end of certain levels could also work if it's in the main story, for example the powers relating to eye brawl's eye (and other things) got absorbed by something. Leaving the eye rolling around on the floor before it (and whatever else) is restored by the skylanders
OK first off this is sick as hell! The story already has me engaged and the character interactions are on point!
3:59 - 4:58 Interesting, this kinda reminds me of a similar concept used in Ben 10 Ultimate Alien Cosmic Destruction. In the game you had a roster of aliens to choose from and each level you’d have a total of 4 aliens to pick from during the level. 3 were required to progress through the level and 1 was optional and you could use them strictly for fighting or if you just like that particular alien. I don’t see too many games use this concept so it’s pretty cool to see it again!
I love all these ideas so much! The skylanders actually beeing characterized(and better/more heroic than Imaginators) is something I've been wishing for a long time! Ik the comics exist but a ton of skylanders are still left in the background sadly.
I would honestly love if Malefor was the main villain and the dragons would be pushed into the focus(especially Sunburn should be).
Some Skylanders should also get improved movesets. Anyone who is winged should be able to fly by "double jumping" and replace the old flying ability with something new(f.e: Whirldwind could get the Dash attack she has on 3DS).
Ngl, I've been on the Skylanders nostalgia train and was thinking of a theoretical fighting game named after Skylanders old "Battle Arena" mode, and seeing this just gives me the idea to also imagine a Skylanders 7, and I'll be sure to watch this series of videos through to the end to see what your take on a Skylanders 7 could be like.
I think Eon should just be retired and be there but not have a direct hand in the story
As an idea, what if there were more enemies and the skylanders were all there fighting, sort of how GTA switches between characters in missions
Neon Batteries, I’m currently writing a skylanders story as well. I was thinking about certain skylanders getting their own story in a separate level aka dlc. One thing about eon dying, If he does die I think aurora would be a right fit due to her being his niece. I would be more than happy to try and help from a writer to another.
I REALLY hope you continue with this as its probably the closest thing we're gonna get to a new skylanders game.
I very much loved this video!
An idea for a boss i have is a Cyclops Raid Leader, who has three versions, which each use different weapons. you fight three cyclops leaders at different points of the story, and maybe back-to-back in a sort of Area battle.
First one works like a Brawlbuckler, with the leader having an axe and shield with a three-hit combo before becoming vulnerable.
Second has a massive Greataxe, much like the Axecutioners of Giants, except it can also spin like a Mohawk Cyclops.
The third one uses petrified darkness on himself to use eye-lasers and dash attacks, but can concuss himself on the walls, like the Evilized Sugarbat.
What do you think?
For the light and dark giants I think a arkeyan esk level/ruins like a prison to hold dissenters could work although why and how the player gets there could be a relic quest or whatever you wish.
Dude I hope the dark giant is a goliath drow. Think about it, it will add an elf who isn't thinner than a stick and drow are elves who accept the darkness. So a drow would be of the dark element
I think if we have a reboot it should be turned into a platformer series with groups of 3 or 4 skylanders. I mean we have 167 we can use for this. and have a connecting storyline with Malefor as the big bad. I’d love to see one with Flynn and Sharpfin getting in misadventures and finding out about Malefor’s plot. I don’t think we can use the toys to life feature for this. And instead of upgrades we can have small skill trees for each skylander. Or maybe a branch for upgrades for each one
Light and dark giants and swapers
I absolutely love this! This is probably the best Skylanders 7 idea I’ve seen and I can’t wait to see more!
(Also, I don’t really care whether Eon dies or retires so I will not vote on this.)
Realy love the concept Realy looking into seeing the new comers designs
This is amazing. Please continue.
I’ve been thinking about how skylanders could comeback, and I always thought that, while the collection aspect was really cool, I just can’t see them bringing it back as is. So I thought about using the sole gems to unlock characters too. It’s nice to see someone else also thinks it’s a nice idea.
I would want eon to be retired, but that’s probably because I don’t want characters to die. But I also think eon would be the type of person to keep protecting skylands until he just physically couldn’t so we would probably die before he retires
I would love to see this as a full series, a game that actually delves into the lore of Skylanders as a break away form the toys to life gimmick. If you need help writing the series maybe consider setting up a writers chat or discord for people wanting to work on it so you don’t have to dig forever through RUclips comments?
You have great ideas, especially with how SKYLANDERS are unlocked. This would be a cool series!
This was great definitely do second part
This is a really interesting and cool concept. You are doing really great, and I hope you do more with this.😁👍
I love this. Nostalgia at it finest. I can’t wait to see what story you tell.
most impressive, im down for any new Skylanders game. I'd say Eon would be retired. well done, can't wait for the next video!
I feel like having eon retire is a cool as you can have a level were you visit the place he retired to as a call back to something
You should make Skylanders return to Skylands an actual fan game
no eon is not dead, he retiered, and still here in a way, he just knows that you are a better portalmaster that he can be now
This is great fan fic content bringing together a lot of the side content. However, it also shows me just how much this series changed since the games I grew up with (the first 2). To me, plot was never a significant aspect of these games. Much more it was the world building, the plot just being an excuse to introduce a bunch of places to get the kids' imagination going. Plus, from what I can tell, SA is the only game with this lovely darkness to it all. The worlds you visit each having their own dark themes, destruction from war, mass industrial eradication, wide reaching pollution, the dead terrorising the living as they simply do not comprehend the harm they pose, plus the mole guy getting more passive aggressive and opportunist as the game goes on. Something the games clearly lost as it went on.
Yea broski you definitely need to play superchargers
I'm not sure how I feel about the game world and the real world being separated like that, I think it disconnects itself from the other games a little too much, but I'd like to see where this story goes.
This is sick mate!
With the question about Eon, why not keep it a mystery what happened to him. One morning he just disapeared. Leave it open to if he just left and retired or if his ghost finally faded away. Heck, if you wanted to you could have his fate be some kind of big revieal like maybe the Skylanders try to find him for help but he is completly gone, or he says he no longer has the power to help, or heck maybe even he was kidnapped by Kaos or some other big bad. Though I could also imagin him being in some secret where it's reviealed that he is just chilling in the afterlife on a recliner sipping tea and watching some TV, that could be a funny twist to him retiering.
I'm actually ok with this game not needing figures and portals becasue while that was it's gimmick, people who are likely are going to want to play this are likely going to range from kids who don't have money and get nothing but Skylanders for gifts for the next few years(which was younger me) or returning veterains who genuinely loved the series dispite it's flaws and have adult things to do with their money and likely don't have their collection anymore(also me now). So yeah, having characters, Imaginator Options, Vehicles, and Villians as unlockables instead, that is a HUGE boost for freedom of play.
I would say keeping the colecter's items special figures such as Legendarys and Dark versions(as well as many others) as something that those few people can just use and gloat about shouldn't be a part of the unlockable characters. At worse, make the figures and portal Optional. You can either go through the story as intended, OR you can just use your collection to complete the game 100% on your first playthrough....though now that I think about it, the portal for this game could be a tad big as it's trying to fit 5 Skylanders, a possible Vehicle, and a possible item on it. 😅
I have very small critisms/thoughts for this theoretical game so I'll keep it breif:
*First: I could see as a minour announce that the change of difficulty is in the Hub World rather then the Pause Menu as every other video game has an unspoken rule that diffculty is adjusted in the pause menu, but I can see the argument for it making the point of that option redundent.
*Second: I would say hold off on using the Spyro and Cynder as I feel like a lot of Spyro fans felt like he was tacked onto the series just to sell copies. I wouldn't ignore them entierly, just feels like they should be built up a bit more and unlocked MUCH further into the game. Let the orginal Skylanders stand on their own two feet without their aid for a little while. Also, some respect to the Spyro series and it's characters should be a big part about it when we finally do interact with Spyro and Cynder when we get to them. Heck it would be kinda cool to see Hunter, Sargent Bird, and other playble side characters from those games as Skylanders(all be it be a bit harder to unlock) or major NPCs.
Also, also, with a note about the crossover characters, I feel like they could have their own unlockable levels you can find in the game, like you need to find a certain amount of Crash related items and interacting with them before standing on a Bonus Level platform similar to one of his games, and similarly with finding certain Donky Kong and Mario related items before jumping into a barrel cannon. I don't think they should take you out of the current level(maybe just get you a small item like a Hat or Winged Saphire), but when you do come back to the hub world after finishing the level you should unlock it and be able to go to that level from the hub world just like the other DLC/Expansion levels.
*Third: I was a tad bit scared from that intro, becasue I think the last thing this game needs is a big serious turn for the franchise, this is still a kid's game after all, a kid's game with story that is pretty damn well writen but still a kids game. Basically, have the writing keep the same tone as the rest of the games and the books.(I am curious about how that kid in the intro is going to play into this though.)
*Fourth: I do feel like the expansion items should be something you get as well in game, but I don't know how they would work.
If you read all the way through this, Thank You, this game was a massive part of my childhood and I love it when people get cretive with it :)
I absolutely love what you're doing here. It's so great to see how you're making a good use of this unlimited creativity freedom the universe provides. Good luck with whatever direction you wanna take with the project. I'll be gladly consuming every bit of new content you make.
Oh, and btw VOTE EON DEAD
This sounds so exciting. I would love to hear more
This is actually pretty good, looking forward to seeing more~!
If you have the figures then good on you, instead of unlocking them in game you can just scan the ones you have. Just do what the Nintendo switch version did for imaginators
I think Eon should be retired because it'd be really funny to visit him and see him just watching TV in his pajamas or something.
Ooooh, this is a really good concept and video! I’d love to see more of it
you should definitely continue this in the future
Interesting, a Sky Landers 7. As for voting for Eon's fate? I say both, retire then pass on. Or have 2 timelines [like Zelda] The Retired timeline & the Perish timeline. Other ideas include Eon's successor, & Kao's in the form of a new evil empire, that caused the destruction of portals hence the soul gems. & Having Cameos & alliances of other VG characters [both heroes & villains] Such as Spyro, Crash, DK, Mario, Sonic, ETC. Anyway those could be fun ingredients for your project.
question:Neon Batteries, what if the energy of skylands leak to earth and skyland magic get weaken when go to earth and what if skylands keeps leaking to earth and more and move over the centuries?
I love your ideas + just hearing your voice is amazing
I LOVE IT, also i would like if in the story the giants are the size of the giants in their trayler 😂. Also pls Eye-brawl and knight light
This... Is.... AMAZING!!!!
a small change to the story have the boy at the start of the game be more hidden in gender if there suppose to be the player avatar, and if they are make it be there would be options on your look clothes, hair both the style and color, and even skin color
This is pretty cool can't wait where you go next with this. P.S I hope chop chop and Deja Vu are story
I and other would miss collecting the figures.
I would have liked if you could switch between 10 skylanders I would imagine 8 on the d pad and for the 9th and 10th skylanders you press L3 and R3
I can’t wait for the next part
7:21 didn't you say Boom Bloom's story was cannon to all of the games as well in one of your research videos?
I think it’d be ok to allow the portal and such to allow access to the Skylanders people already own.
3:00 it always seemed wired to me that people are screaming at something that adds gameplay and cost mony but still pay skins (like all of the money of epic come from just 3 guys on paint that change a color or 2 once in a while) i don't mind gacha since you have a chance to get a new gameplay but why skins are still popular???
(repost bc I think my comment got deleted)
The being able to unlock Skylanders by getting their soul gems instead of having to own them physically is the smartest move honestly.
Also, if you're taking suggestions for a bit of world building, I always thought that it would be very cool if the special teams' captains (Tree-Rex, Wash buckler, Snapshot, Spitfire and King Pen) had like council meetings where they discussed strategies against enemies or academy stuff.
Episode 2 please your a genius
Please sir can I have some more?
Also swapping skylanders sounds a lot like marvel ultimate alliance
Just a small suggestion but it might be a decent idea if this was a real project to cut some of the roster, or at least save a few skylanders for the dlc. It would save quite a bit of development time and money to lose some of the less memorable skylanders in favor of putting more polish on the ones you’re bringing back. I know that I’m not making any friends here by suggesting this as Activision has tried cutting skylanders before to mixed results but it’s just a thought.
Every good, makebmore please :D
hell yes please continue
I have never been this early
4:10 this is basically ssa and sg of the 3ds with 2 more and extra steps but yeah i like it
ok no that is not exaclty the same thing
Open world Skylanders. Open world Skylanders. OPEN WORLD SKYLANDERS!!! (/jk)
If you do make skylanders 7 please have an elephant/woolly mammoth skylander
you would like my take on a Skylanders 7 then
as I have a Water Skylander made for it, who is an elephant
named, Oceaphant
(fun fact, his ears are shaped like the water symbol, like how elephant ears resemble the continent/country they are from)
That'd be great! I remember years ago when I made concepts for a Skylanders 7, I had a elephant Skylander in the Earth element who wielded a giant mace and shield!
I thinking earth a mammoth name quake shake he charge with his tusks tramples enemies and make a loud trumpet like choppers roar and make big stomps 🦣
I see you like Elephants because of your RUclips profile image.
This is fun, I like this
🎉
Love this idea
7:10 i know the question and i kinda know how to awnser it, just make it like on the 3ds vertion of ssf, it is not tre gratest but it still work goodenought to be in 2 or 3 games that really gor realeased
This is great and all but what grafics do you think the should have im wondering?🤔
you don't won't heros be canon but after now this fan game just what if maybe a way that make sense idk.
Amazing! Are you on Skylanders Reddit?
Hey Neon Batteries, you know who else is a writer besides you? Keyana Richardson.
now i know why you were rumbelling about how fo the skylanders lives when ther an't fyting
I love this so much, i love how you made The story aspect for relevant. Seriously I would love to be a Part of a project like this in any way that i could 🩷
I always thought Skylanders had so much personality and thought IT would Be awesome to add depth to them and The world. Also The gameplay sounds awesome.
Idk what i'm yapping, just awesome video in general 🩷
