meglio del primo ma di poco
Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage is such a nostalgic blast from the past! The Reignited Trilogy made it look incredible, and the core gameplay still holds up. Flying around, flaming enemies, and collecting gems is as fun as I remember. It does feel a little easier than the original, and some of the minigames are still frustrating, but honestly? It's Spyro! If you loved it back in the day or want to introduce a younger player to this classic, it's definitely worth picking up.
Played via the "reignited" trilogy on PS5
So........ realistically I'm not going to officially beat this game LOL
It makes you basically (almost) "100%" the game to get to the final boss and I'm not doing all that. It requires 40 orbs and at the moment I'm typing this review I have 10 LMAO. The "side quests" are lowkey SO hard in this game and SO not enjoyable that I'd rather pluck my eyelashes one by one then pour lemon juice in my eyes... That may sound a little extreme but this game is NOT good, I played it mostly because it's Spyro and I love Spyro.. just not this one. Also because I really want to experience the original trilogy and I need to get through it. Sucks I won't actually beat it but... I mean I made it to the end and have played every other level except fighting the final boss, Ripto. Really cheap and annoying that you have to have orbs to access him... like just lemme beat the game yknow? The characters in this game were very annoying, very ugly and very unnecessary.. They tried to make it more "story based" but tbh Spyro doesn't need some crazy story to be "good". That's why I liked the first one, you have one simple mission: save as many dragons as you can and defeat Gnasty Gnorc. I'll also mention: so. many. cutscenes. AND tutorials for things I already know? And even if I didn't know, lemme figure it out. Plus they give you so many things to do in this game that it's like: what do I even do in this (certain) level? Very very overwhelming at times and some levels were just waaaay too big and confusing. Felt like there really wasn't a real purpose to it all, which sucks to say. Don't know what the creators were thinking with this one but it ain't it... What a disappointing sequel to a pretty solid game. Hopefully the third one is better but so far I don't have the highest expectations. I'll start it sometime in the near future, hopefully, but for now I'm all Spyro'd out.

Basically just Spyro 1 again (<- compliment). The addition of Orb objectives was quite good, since it made each level feel fairly unique. Level and boss design felt like a notable step up from Spyro 1, except for the final boss which was incredibly frustrating (almost certainly because I went for the flawless run skill point). I also really enjoyed the hub worlds for this game, felt like the secrets were actually challenging to find and rewarding. The post-game theme park area was also super cute. Just a fun game!
