Finally got around to beating this. Never got around to beating the original when I played it way back when so now's a better time than any!
The Good
- Great Level Design
- Fun Platforming
- Great Music
-Vibrant Visuals
-Great Quality of life improvements
- Really fun to 100%
The Meh
- Going back made me realize how mediocre the design was in some aspects. Treetops and Haunted Towers were the worst ones in this regard, with the amount of guesswork you have to do to find some of the hidden treasures to be astronomically high.
- Flying Segments got kind of old after a while.
The Bad
- Long Loading Times (Might just be because I played on Switch)
- Choppy Frame rate at times (Might just be because I played on Switch)
Conclusion
I really enjoyed this remake. It captures what made the original game good while also adding a few improvements and enhancements that make it the best it can be. I haven't played the original in a while but from what I've experienced, this is the definitive way to play Spyro The Dragon. Just classic platforming fun. Can't wait to see what the sequel does.
