Spyro the Dragon 62% completion
Spyro Reignited is a flawless remaster of a high-octane PS1 platformer. The updated visuals look phenomenal and do an excellent job of capturing the 90's charm of the original games. The games themselves are an absolute pleasure to navigate moment-to-moment, although some elements like instant-death pits and a lives system did not age as well as the movement.
The focus on horizontal speed does make exploring a bit unsatisfying: the game feels best when you're charging along at a breakneck speed, but careful exploration requires a more methodical approach. Navigating small spaces also feels finicky compared to games like Crash Bandicoot and Mario 64. In particular the flying levels required an obnoxious level of precise muscle memory. For pure flow-state fun Spyro has aged incredibly well, but it couldn't sustain my interest over the long term.

An almost perfect remake of some of my favourite games ever. They're fantastic late 90's collectathon games with great characters and levels. There are a few redesigns and recasted voices I don't like as much and it's a bit buggy sometimes, but that hardly takes away from how beautifully crafted this is.
At one time I missed these games on PS1 and for a long time I stereotypically thought that this was a children's game, but in fact it is, but with a catch. As one of the many popular 3D platformers, it works even in 2019 and will continue to work beyond. This is a big trilogy that can evoke different feelings in different people, but one thing I can say for sure is that the games are worth exactly one playthrough, but if you have the patience to complete them 100%, everyone will decide for themselves.
В свое время пропустил эти игры на PS1 и долго стереотипно думал, что это детская игра, но на самом деле это так, но с подвохом. Как одна из многих популярных 3д-платформеров, она работает даже в 2019 и будет работать после. Эта большая трилогия которая может вызывать разные чувства у разных людей, но одно я точно могу сказать - игры стоят точно одного прохождения, а вот хватит у вас терпения пройти их на 100%+ каждый решит сам.
