Spyro the Dragon was my very first video game back on the original PlayStation and seeing him so lovingly brought back to life in this trilogy was heartwarming! ... At least at first, until I remembered how rage-inducing some of the later sections are, but at least they recreated how annoying it was too!

I aimed for 100% completion and some of the skill points are a nightmare. The achievements were all relatively easy and you'll get most of them simply by playing the game normally. Took me roughly 50 hours to get everything done and I *really* sucked at the skateboarding sections.

My only criticisms for the PC-specific Reignited version are that it wasn't optimised too well when ported over to PC (I played the Reignited Trilogy on PS4 as well and had no problems) all linked to framerate - setting the frames to unlimited will cause you all kinds of issues from Spyro sliding around on his own to game-breaking problems with boss fights. Not the end of the world as you can simply set the framerate to 60fps (30fps in some cases) mid-fight.

And again, I really sucked at the skateboarding. Not sure if it was actually hard or if I was just bad at it but, regardless, I never feel the need to ever touch a skateboard again.

Despite some minor issues, it's a faithful recreation of the purple boi we love so much. You can tell it was made with love and by people that really care and that it's not just a cash-grab jumping on the remake bandwagon.

Hopeful for a brand new Spyro game sometime in the future! :)
