Shadow Redfield Interview August 2018
Radiating innocence and youth this next guest comes from the new age gamer era. Through games he has overcome obstacles that happens in everyday life and has made some new and incredible friends, these obstacles include people who likes to bully others to someone this gamer had once shared a screen with trying to take credit for work that wasn't theirs. After ridding the negative stuff that was perhaps impacting the channel this gamer decided to start over again by taking his first channel down and had reinvented himself through the channel he has now. Please give a warm welcome to Shadow Redfield, one of today's younger YouTube gamers.
Interview Begins
Question One: How did you choose your unique name, Shadow Redfield?
Answer: His unique and interesting name comes from a combination of two games actually, as you might have guessed. The first part goes back to the Sonic the Hedgehog game when we meet a character named Shadow who is still a beloved character for our gamer. The last part of his name comes from the popular franchise Resident Evil with the characters Chris and Claire Redfield who in his opinion are the best characters in the game.
Question Two: What style of gaming do you like most?
Answer: Going into a game blindly is what this gamer loves to do. Being able to figure out puzzles and solving the mystery of a game without help is much more exciting for Shadow Redfield then it is to get pointers. He finds it to be a rewarding experience when finishing the game on his own and enjoys not rushing the game as doing that takes the charm out of it.
Question Three: What style of gaming do you like least?
Answer: Speedruns are not Shadow Redfield's cup of tea. He admitted that he tried to speedrun the Resident Evil Remake but soon found himself doing what he likes to do best and that's take his time to enjoy it.
Question Four: When you played Resident Evil 2 for the first time, did you know that you wanted to be a part of the YouTube gaming community?
Answer: At that current time Youtube wasn't a thing for Shadow Redfield. He had enjoyed playing the game on the original Playstation. By 2013 he had realized that he wanted to share the love of games with others and enjoyed others watching his playthroughs so he made his first channel with that game being the star.
Question Five: What message do you have for young YouTube gamers?
Answer: "Don't focus on numbers or being the next big thing." Shadow Redfield advised, "YouTube should be about having fun, make the most of it!"
Question Six: What's your highest gaming accomplishment?
Answer: The Last of Us on Grounded mode is to date this gamers reigning glory. He found it to be difficult but he was very happy and excited once he had finished it.
Question Seven: Where do you see yourself in five years?
Answer: Being able to share videos and livestreaming for his audience if YouTube and Twitch is still the thing that is what he hopes to be doing. Shadow Redfield also hopes to be able to work in the gaming industry creating a game as well. "I hope I'm just happy." Shadow Redfield truthfully commented.
Question Eight: What kind of game would you create if money was no option?
Answer: Creating a game of survival horror that gives the player a unique experience is what Shadow Redfield would love to do. Not your ordinary pop in your face kinda jump scares either but more of a jump by a table's shadow for instance even if it had happened by accident while seating on edge at your chair, "This has happened to me before." Shadow commented. These are the kind of unique experiences that are way better than knowing by a loud sound or noise coming from some where on your screen that a pop out jump scare is about to happen.
Question Nine: Why do you play video games?
Answer: Being able to get out of the stressful personal life that Shadow Redfield has to deal with he likes to play games and escape reality even if it's for a few hours. While playing he feels the outside world melting away to a world of bliss especially a good RPG game. He is also very fond of experiencing something that isn't in the real world and seeing all the creative aspects of games.
Question Ten: Who is your biggest gaming inspiration and why?
Answer: With so many gamers today on YouTube Shadow Redfield has expressed that it was difficult for him to say who was his greatest inspiration for doing what he loves. After some thought though however Shadow had named the very much noteworthy girl gamer Suzy Lu as his greatest inspiration for YouTube gaming. "She inspires me to work hard and still have fun doing it." Shadow commented also going on to say that he started watching this fabulous gamer close to the end of 2014.
Question Eleven: Before playing a video game how do you feel?
Answer: Shadow Redfield finds it to be a very exciting experience before getting into the game. He enjoys being able to continue where he last left off or even starting a new game altogether.
Question Twelve: How do you feel during game play?
Answer: Being able to feel like he is a part of the game is what Shadow feels most. The scenery, characters, and so much more involved with the game he is playing is a big part of this as well that helps create that feeling of being sucked into the gaming atmosphere.
Question Thirteen: How do you feel after game play?
Answer: Having a good strategy for what's coming up next in a game is what Shadow enjoys trying to figure out after he is done for that session. He finds it quite refreshing to be able to turn off the console to rest for abit and think of how he is going to handle the next task coming up in the game he is playing. "It makes me feel happy." Shadow Redfield commented.
Question Fourteen: From the experience that you already got from the YouTube gaming community, how has it helped you grow to where you are now?
Answer: Gaining more confidence from the community has helped this gamer grow into the person he is right now. There has been some negativity that had impacted him in the past involving hate messages but Shadow decided to start looking at the positive things and it shows that it's working.
Interview Ends
Through plenty of hardships Shadow Redfield has certainly overcome the odds plenty of times however for this wonderful gamer the road will have other bumps that he will have to face, but this goes for all the gamers of today's YouTube community. I deeply enjoyed getting to know Shadow in a more in-depth way and I hope that you to my dear audience that you've enjoyed it as well. I see many more positive things happening for this new era gamer and wish him the best of luck growing his wonderful channel.

Spyro Reignited Trilogy
Photo courtesy of Wikipedia Promotional artwork |
Spyro hit the hearts of many people around the world back in 1998 with his first ever game Spyro The Dragon. This was closely followed with the second installment to his story, Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage in 1999. Spyro: Year of the Dragon finished his story with the third installment in 2000. People who deeply enjoyed getting to see what this purple hero could do over those three years fell hard for the little but mighty dragon had seemed to be quite satisfied with how the main story ended. As the years passed on many would say that even though those cravings were well meant it just didn't seem like it was enough. These people could still feel the magic from a faraway place where a certain little fairy would help rescue a certain little purple dragon from near potential harm and kick a big bad gnorc's butt. For these select people just like our purple hero they are hearing a place calling to them reaching for them with an urgency of great disturbance about to erupt in Spyro's world. These people stop and think to themselves, "Something about this feeling is so familiar like I've been there before." Thinking back to those days of gathering dragon eggs and freeing elder dragons from imprisonment was like it happened yesturday and not just a mere dream. Turning around something mysterious happens as a portal begins to open, with hesitation and taking a deep breath, these few people feel the familiar pull and take a a leap of faith into that portal to a promising future...
...20 years later...
Enter the beautifully remastered version of our purple dragon hero along with his long-time friend Sparx the dragonfly, also health meter counter for the amazing hero, you know; green means go and red means no. In a world that we remember so well Spyro must face his fears once again in this trio of games in near perfect visual with beautiful and badder graphics.
Help our hero overcome those fears first as a born-again rookie in Sypro the Dragon where he must train those skills to see if he has what it takes to become strong enough to take down Gnasty Gnorc and free the other dragons. Pay close attention to Sparx as he will tell you the health of Spyro while he follows you around. Remember as well that Sparx enjoys tasty butterflies which will help the little flying health meter go back up in health.
After going through training day in the first installment check out Spyro: Ripto's Rage. Sypro decides he needs some time to relax and catch up on some zzz's in this thrilling game but it turns out that there are other plans in store for our purple hero. Landing in your not so average vacation getaway Sypro comes to a realm called Avalar where he is summoned by Elora the Faun, Hunter the Cheetah, and the Professor. They explain that a villain named Ripto the warlock and his two goons Crush and Gulp is trying to take over the peaceful Avalar, with Elora's request Spyro has to defend Avalar from peril to bring harmony back to this great land...of course Sypro's portal was destroyed thanks to Ripto so there wasn't much choice to begin with. After all is said and done Spyro along with Hunter the Cheetah leave Avalar through the portal which is where the third installment will take place.
In the last installment of the main story for our purple hero we discover a forgotten world that used to inhabit dragons of long ago. In this forgotten place an evil Sorceress with an army of Rhynoc rule the land, stealing dragon eggs with the help of a character named Bianca the Rabbit, the Sorceress's apprentice, at least until Bianca finds out the true purpose that the dragon eggs have. Throughout this forgotten land Spyro and Hunter the Cheetah get help from the characters who live here specifically Sheila the Kangaroo, Sgt. Byrd the Penguin, Bentley the Yeti, and Agent 9 the Monkey. Even with the aid of Bianca Spyro finds that the Sorceress is not that easy to defeat but eventually everything gets restored and the dragon eggs are back where they belong.
Now if this wasn't exciting enough there has been information containing who the voice actors will be for these unforgettable characters. Tom Kenny who voiced our hero Spyro in both Ripto's Rage and Year of the Dragon will be reclaiming his role in this awesome trilogy with some re-recordings from the first game as Spyro was voiced by Carlos Alazraqui. Hunter the Cheetah and Ripto will be voiced over as Gregg Berger reclaiming his roles from the originals. Also composer Stewart Copeland wrote a new main theme for the trilogy, since he wrote the songs for the original games.
Keep in mind to my dear readers that with the trilogy you will only receive the first game, Spyro the Dragon, as a physical tangible copy. The other two games will have to be downloaded per an in-game update in order for you to play them. The initial release date for this game was suppose to be September 21st, 2018 but a delay occurred so make sure to mark your calendars for November 13th, 2018. It will be released on the Playstation 4 and Xbox One platforms.
Thank you to everyone who joined me on this amazing game review and to those who have continued reading to the very end. I'm very much excited for the return of Spyro as I know many of you are to. This post maintained for the most part the facts and game descriptions though there are some parts that came strictly from my imagination. I look forward to your comments and suggestions. Until next time my dear readers, have a wonderful day.
