im currently about to delve into this retro franchise and play every game, any spyro fans here? if so what's your take on the different entries ?
the OG from 98 is legendary
I liked sypro ripto rage
i downloaded the reignited version, does it hinder the experience or keep the original charm intact?
Idk tbh I ain't played the new shit
Used to play the Legend of Spyro games with my buddy as a kid
The first is a nice start.
The second builds on that and you can learn new abilities afaik.
The third is, imo a bit confusing but at the same time gameplay wise more interesting since you get to play different characters.
Story wise all are more or less equally good, imo. The OGs have no woke elements but the remake does have minor feminist notions in some cut scenes while at the same time it's been made more kid friendly with minor content changes.
Imo play the OGs first and then the remake.
Keep in mind that they are all collectathons and not very difficult.
Although there are certain few levels which may make you even rage quit because you will have to retry often until you understand 100% how the mechanics work.
Winter Tundra is so cozy, man. I miss those days so very much.
Read my earlier reply. As for controls, it is spot on. No issues there.
The only problem is that the physics are bound to the framerate so it seems.
Some things don't properly function when you run it at 60 fps or with an unlocked framerate.
On PC you should run it at 30 fps only.
On consoles, ALL consoles, it runs at 30 fps.
The Series S runs the Xbox One version.
The Series X runs the Xbox One X version.
appreciate the in-depth insight, im currently at 76% completion on the first entry of the reignited version; it's a lovely platformer so far; i encountered zero technical issues running the game on framerates exceeding 30, the optimization apropos of the fitgirl repack is seemingly phenomenal
I'd suggest locking the framerate to the highest you can where it won't drop lower and pkay it that way since when it runs with a consistent framerate which means consistent frametimes, it will be more comfortable for the eyes and not exhausting over time.
It will also be easier to play. Fructuating frametimes and framerate is suifuel for the eyes and brain.
They constantly have to readjust and that is straining.
No idea about the fitgirl repack though.
I own them on disc and such. Should've tried the OGs first though, tbh.
You have good taste
Like all of those demakes and demasters, the reignited trilogy is a soulless cash grab that shits all over the originals. The modern graphics look disgusting, especially the lighting. The world looks like cheap plastic. The characters have something uncanny about them, with their dead eyes staring into your soul. And of course, they sanitized the dialogue to not offend the snowflakes.
The originals were great tho. Year of the Dragon was one of my first PS1 games. I still remember the surreal, dreamy atmosphere it had.

Platinumed the entire reignited trilogy years ago and they hold up really well
agreed, dont like the graphics on the spyro or crash remakes
it loses the ps1 magic
I never finished the remake for some reason. I don't think the game is for me unfortunately. Neither is crash tbh too linear for me.
i fully completed the first entry; the trilogy is a neat, well-designed collectathon so far
i played the original crash entries and the remade installments, while the remakes undeniably suck some of the charm away, they're still phenomenal, especially with the addition of previously cut content
give crash of the titans (2007 reboot) a shot, it's entirely linear but the core gimmick of the game could possibly get you hooked; my utter admiration towards it may be a byproduct of nostalgia tho, so don't expect something revolutionary
