was it an upgrade or a downgrade
I'm trans btw
>>737684401Upgrade overall, but still could've done a much better job.
>>737684401literally invented the SOUL SOULLESS meme lmao
>>737684401the gameplay was good, it gave you the gem hunter upgrade right off the bat and it fixed a lot of the jenky shitty minigames that were bad due to poor controls, but it looks worse, the sky boxes are worse, the lighting is worse and they censor a ton of random shit and the art direction is worse
>>737684401>its been almost 8 years since an actual Spyro game You tell me.
>>737684401Huge downgrade, and I played the Remake first.
I can't forgive them for replacing Melissa Disney and Pamela Adlon.
Infiltrated by bara enthusiasts.
>>737684401Worse voice acting.Worse art directionWorse cameraOdd censorship choicesMeh controls, that go against my muscle memory from playin originals.Only good thing is the influx of fanart. ;)
>>737685109>Pamela Adlon I looked it up but shes not in any of the original games.
>>737685427I meant to say Pamela Hayden.
>>737684401This image justifies remake trilogy's existence
>>737684401First game is excellent. Second and third miss the mark. Mostly Indians worked on 2/3 judging from the credits, and it shows.
>>737685565I'm sorry, but her face here just looks wrong. It has that uncanny vibe to it. Maybe it's the mouth with no lips, and oddly flat looking face.In original she felt much cuter.
downgrade, you can't unironically see shit because the contrast fucking sucks
I don't know. I was a Saturn kid, I didn't play these until Re-Ignited.
Anyone else hungry for Subway?
>>737685565she does NOT look like that in-game
>>737684401Spyro... had a rough transition...
>>737685021they couldn't have fucked it up more if they tried. what a disgrace
>>737688112UOOOH
>>737684401Spyro 1 was kind of an upgrade.Spyro 2 and 3 were downgrades with rushed animations and environment design. If you're not an autist like me, it shouldn't bother you that much.
>>737684401It was okay. The originals still play well and giving them right-stick camera control didn't feel like some big game-changer. But at least it felt as close to the originals as possible and didn't have fuck-ups N.Sane had with their pill-shaped collisions and broken jump arcs. Visuals are okay although I'd definitely choose the originals over sort of soulless looking character models and bleak colors. But I appreciated an option to switch to the original soundtrack (the new arrangement was pretty nice compared to hit-or-miss tracks of N.Sane Trilogy).
>>737684401It showed spyro was always bad hence why no spyro 4
>>737688112Sex with FemSpyro!
Honestly, a downgrade.
>>737684401>all the dragons were dudes how did the dragons breed?
>>737695252Didn't they add Cynder in the reboot trilogy?
>>737685565Nice Goat
>>737695252They're like snails.
>>737684401Sidegrade at best. The originals were too high quality to beat in the first place
>>737684401I just recently played through Spyro 2 on this, first time in years playing through it the intended way without the unlock all abilities cheat (the backtracking really isn’t that bad).It’s quite good except for some ugly NPC redesigns, and some environment colors being noticeably downgraded to me. There were some levels that made me stop and think “yeah, this one actually looks pretty nice”Moving on to Spyro 3 now, Cloudy Spires was the first redesigned level that made me wonder what the Hell they were thinking. Original had smooth structures that resembles clouds, replaced with jagged rocks in Reignited.I dropped 1 halfway through (wasn’t my favorite of the original trilogy). I’ll go back to it later
It's a total travesty how they mascared the remake. The skyboxes look like stock assets, and levels lacks that beautiful vibrancy and proper contrast it's all very dull.Character, and enviromental designs went through a butcher.Voice acting lacks whimsy.
>indian asset flipnope.
>>737685021Soul vs Soulless, epitomized
>>737684401Downgrade for spyro nostalgiafagsUpgrade for everybody else
>>737698026>cloud spiresthe original had such a warm and vibrant feeling to it
>>737699805>It's an upgrade if i don't know any better, and haven't experienced the originals.Do you know how dumb that makes (you) sound.
>>737684401Downgrade in every way except for Elora
>>737685565With or without big bazoongas, Elora is so cute, goddamn. I'm glad her redesign exists. I could take or leave everything else.
>>737698026can't get over how the demaster made it into an overwatch map
>>737685565>>737700342
>>737684401No. The original still looks like a painting.
>>737700913Take that back.
>>737684401There's a certain feel to the originals that the remake doesn't quite manage to recapture. It's difficult to articulate beyond the SOUL/SOULESS meme but if you remember playing the original PS1 games back in the day then something definitely feels off.Also nu-Spyro is the wrong shade of purple.
>>737701336Yeah, I know what you mean. The more complex graphics become the more impossible it becomes to replicate this.
>>737684401My first Spyro game was this one. After playing the PS1 versions I would say it's a downgrade.
I really can't understand people who say there's nothing wrong with the remake.
>>737684401Sidegrade. With 3 as my personal favorite since childhood, I was rather po'd about it getting least attention in remake
>>737685565I hate how she look
>>737698026>there's too much fucking shit on it
>>737684401I was 10 when the first game came out and enjoyed all 3 and even season of ice. I have nostalgia for them like everyone else and would aggree OG had more charm and the remake designs were pretty ugly but still enjoyed it.
>>737684401I hate how zoomed in the camera is.Why would you do that in a game that's about exploration?
>>737684401Definitely an upgrade
>>737702575the one that urked me the most was wizard peaks, where the FUCK did the checkerboard floors go???
>>737702882 because the original wasn’t drowning in fucking shrubbery and ambient occlusion, that’s why PS1 environments had like 3 props and a skybox doing 90% of the heavy lifting. negative space was the aesthetic. big flat colors, weird fog, chunky geometry. it felt dreamlike because your brain filled in the gaps. remake devs saw that and went “needs more DETAIL” and now every level looks like a theme park queue line. more rocks, more vines, more clutter, more lights, more shit just sitting there. sometimes less really is more and the PS1 literally forced them to understand that.
