How To Train Your Dragon (2025)

By Sardoken on

We started our Christmas Eve by watching the movie adaptation of How To Train Your Dragon and it was absolutely awesome! We were already fans of the computer animation and the ‘live action’ movie didn’t disappoint us. I can’t believe that 15 years have passed since Dreamworks released the adventures of Hiccup and his flying fire-breathing friends!

Rather than to reinvent the original, DreamWorks has let the original creator of How To Train Your Dragon, Dean DeBlois, take care of this faithful update, which remains largely animated, especially when dragons play such an important role.

The script is identical in both versions. Fortunately, How to Train Your Dragon had a rock-solid screenplay, adapted from the novel by Cressida Cowell.

While DeBlois’ involvement could be seen as a way to protect How To Train Your Dragon from some other director coming along and destroying it, resulted in bringing the whole fantastical story one step closer to reality.

The Deaths of Chromie

By Soforah on

I was very excited when I heard that there would be a new scenario, The Deaths of Chromie. At first I didn’t want to be spoiled and refused to read anything about it. Little did I know that it isn’t just a simple scenario, it’s quite an event…

There are portals to unlock, a reputation to level,… and, most important: you can run the scenario as much as you want! Since I never read anything about it, I didn’t know that last fact so, when I started the scenario and saw the timer at 15 minutes, I panicked. So much to do in such little time… I’m going to fail! Once the 15 minutes were over, I realized it was repeatable and, with a sigh of relief, started running it over and over again.

If I were to give any advice… unlock the portals first! You’ll have to go to the dragonshrines to kill and collect stuff which will lead to having to kill an end boss. Each time you’ll defeat the related Dragonshrine for the first time, a portal will unlock. There are four in total, my favourite being “The Culling of Stratholme”. I don’t want to spoil too much so, I won’t go into any details!

The ultimate goal of the scenario is to defeat 8 timeways in one attempt. I haven’t gotten that far yet. I’m first leveling my reputation with Chromie in order to unlock more of her talents, which will make her stronger. My reputation has currently reached “Epoch-Mender”, only one more left after that (Timelord), and then I’ll finally make my attempt for a speed run.

In the meantime, I hope you’re all having as much fun as I do, and good luck on the speed runs!
