Is it too hard for beginners?

[Cheetah]

I never played this game and have nearly no experience for jump and run games. Will it be too hard for a beginner is it hard this game?

[>M@tEo$<]

Nah, it was designed for children back in the 90's

[Cheetah]

Ok thank you

Spyro games were always easy if you just aim to complete them story-wise but if you wanted to do everything with all skill points and collectibles then it was somewhat challenging, at least for casual players. However, in Reignited Trilogy it is also now easier to achieve than in the original games. It's even surprising to me because after Reignited Toys for Bob made one of the hardest platformer games in terms of difficulty rating overall "Crash Bandicoot It's about time".

This game is easy, yet some levels are quite challenging. But nothing to hard you can't figure out :)

Surviving Gulp and Ripto battles without taking a hit (optional) in the second game were the only places where I really struggled.

not really ^_^ it's enjoyable!

100%ing them might be a but frustrating.

But this remake seems a bit easier, mainly due to changes in the timing of when enemies attack you.

The original games where criticized for having the enemies wait for you to approach them then attack you. But in this remake it feels like maybe about 25% of the enemies will take an extra 0.25 seconds before attacking. This felt especially noticable in the Crush fight.

Yea, they really dropped the ball with the Crush boss, which is very disappointing since he is my fave. He was also slower when he ran after you and he used the same attack animation like in the first phase (stopping and hit the ground twice). In the OG when he runs after you he cathces up and runs on the same speed as you and than he immediatly hits the floor. If you jump during charging for example he hits you. This was really weird especially because Gulp was buffed...

I could do it as a kid so I would say no. There are some challenging bits especially in Spyro 1. But if you aren't doing 100% in every game you should be able to breeze through it just fine :D

Start with Spyro 2 (There is only limited continuity between Spyro 1 and Spyro 2, so you won't miss any story)

Having the Hover ability makes platforming sooo much easier. And the Hub-Worlds have no enemies (Unlike Spyro 1, where the Hub-Worlds are basically levels in their own right) so you are safe to muck around and learn the controls.

Just be aware that some of the optional challenges are excessively difficult/tedious. If you're playing a mini-game that's too hard, then just skip it. There are more than enough of them to collect enough Orbs to get to the final boss.

The Spyro Games are kind of weird in that getting to the end and beating the boss is easy. But trying to 100% the game? You'd probably have an easier time playing Dark Souls or something.

Never thought I'd see the word hard and classic Spyro in the same sentence. 💀

BRO. Spyro 1 is hands down the most pathetically easy game to 100%.

Have you like actually played any of the Spyro games before Reignited? Cause I beat the original trilogy 100% back on the PS1 back when I was like 9. 💀 You zoomers think everything that requires effort is too hard. Get out of here, Spyro is not comparable to Dark Souls, as dumb as journalists comparing Crash Bandicoot to Dark Souls.

Never had this problem, sounds like a skill issue. And I've got the double jump mod from Omniswapper. Git gud son. Spyro 2 and 3 are incomplete but let's not make mountains out of molehills cause an enemy takes a 0.25 seconds to attack. 💀🤓 Also you're wrong, played both OG and this remake. Bosses in 2 and 3 don't attack you unless you move.

Yeah if you're like 4 years old. 💀 The ONLY difficult challenge is the boxing match. That's it. Hurricos's lightning stone orb challenge was nerfed, it's easy now compared to the original where enemies react to you and you need to lure them out and flame them before they jump out of view. They just run around in circles aimlessly. 💀
