When I was a child and my parents were going through a difficult time — whether it was the divorce, being yelled at, or being blamed for their mistakes — I was searching for a refuge.
It carried me through the hardest and most important time of my life, and I simply fell in love with Spyro. I associate so much happiness, joy, and carefree feelings with Spyro.
When my parents got divorced and I had to witness all of it (I remember everything) — Spyro on the PlayStation was the most important game for me, alongside Crash Bandicoot.
As a kid, it was terrifying when your parents had no time for you, but there was someone in the family who really tried to be there for me — that was my mom, my grandparents, and my siblings, even though I had to grow up early to take care of others.
This game series carried me through the darkest and deepest time of my life, and I had to complete it 100%. I somehow felt like I owed it to the developers (and to myself too, even if that sounds weird).
Thank you for everything, and thank you for being a part of my life. <3
Much love to the game developers — feel hugged! <3

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! :)

Had so much fun with Spyro!
One of the all time favorites growing up, brought back such fond memories.
If only all remake's were done like this one.

Steam deck compatibility needs to be dropped to Playable instead of Verified. When running at 60 fps (the games default setting) it will occasionally soft lock by not letting doors open or challenges complete. Reducing framerate in the performance menu does fix it, but you shouldn’t have to do that in a Verified game.

I think like most people I have some memories of playing the old Spyro games as a child, while I never personally owned the games myself when I got the chance to play them it was always such a pleasant treat. Skip ahead about 15 years later and I finally managed to play this and I can absolutely tell this was made with love and care.

Spyro is a childhood joy and a timeless classic.
It's a bright colorful world with friendly cartoony characters and solid voice acting. The classic collectathon style is great to pass the time, and the gameplay mechanics and platforming are impeccable. This game is great for all ages.
I completed and 100% all three games, and I'd do it again.

100% Achievement Review: A quick review based on my experience completing all the (available) achievements.
Title: Spyro Reignited Trilogy
Summary: 3D platformer-adventure game
Personal notes: Spyro the reignited trilogy brings back the first three Spyro games with a beautiful remaster. The updated graphics are really well done yet feel reminiscent of the feeling of the originals. It's crazy to think these games originally came out over twenty years ago from 1998-2000! The game-play is pretty much the exact same as it used to, which isn't a bad thing, with the exception of some fixes. I personally haven't played through any of the originals fully but I do partially remember playing the first one way back when on the Playstation. The story throughout the trilogy is short but cute and well done. It has lots of reoccurring characters and all of the plot-lines feel rightfully interconnected. The worlds and the music are even better than the original building off of an already good game but with newer technology. If you enjoyed the original Spyro's game design you will love this one. With that being said, the only negative experiences I had with this game were mostly silly bugs or some specific mechanics that still handle like they did twenty years ago, like the skateboard or snowboard levels! Another bug i will mention is that anytime I had my FPS higher than 120, Spyro would constantly be sliding which was pretty frustrating but at least it was 120 instead of a 60 cap. So yeah, there are a few quirks and glitches, some new and some from the originals but nothing too crazy. Achievement wise, none of them are too difficult. Most of them are tied to a level and require you to do a specific thing so I would recommend reading the achievements or a guide but they are all pretty simple if you know what you are looking for/doing. The ones I listed below are some of the ones that were a little frustrating but nothing really stood out to me. All in all this trilogy was a blast from the past and I would recommend it, especially for any Spyro fan, not to mention It also goes on sale often.
Time it took to complete: 33hrs
Most difficult achievement(s):
- Olly Olly Oxen Free (Defeat the Ox without taking a hit)
- Dragon and On and On (Get Gnasty Gnorc to complete 5 laps)
- Duck and Cover (Don't get hit by Bob)
