I will keep updating this review while I progress through the games.
Current Progress: Finished both 1&2
I bought this from the HumbleBundle, it was a great deal.

As an original Spyro fan i always wanted to take a closer look at the Remaster. Given the money I paid for it, I feel like it was worth it. The graphics are better than I expected despite their cartoony nature. The gameplay is very good, a true re-interpretation of the original spyro gameplay.

Reason Why I Changed to Negative:
I changed the review to negative since I saw many flaws including progression saving problems... which sucked.

Progression Problem:
There was a time that four extra levels I played didn't get saved... unacceptable. That's when I decided to change the review to negative. Why does progression need to be online? Why do we need internet for everything? Where did the good old offline days go? it's a freaking Singleplayer Game! Why do we have to be online to register our progress and we can't just play offline? This sucks. And if it's not fixed, I will not change the review to positive. Achivements won't register, progress wont register, all because I had bad connection and I had to replay through several parts. This is not tolerated for a 2018 or so game.

Other Problems:
Sometimes whenever I load a world, it freezes, Task Manager says program is not responding, then I have to manually shut down the game and re-open it, thankfully all progress is saved (this time) even the world I chose to load is added to the last loaded worlds.

Many glitches can occure regarding enemy spawn. Worst one I got is Gulp being dissapeared after his 3rd health point was hit. Unacceptable.

And an other problem I am getting is the inpud comming off from the game, It's like I press Alt+TAB and I now use the desktop as my current window. That usually happens after Dragon Cutscenes I have to re-click on the game window to regain controls. I am playing on windowed mode 1600x900 i don't think that should cause problems. If it does, unacceptable.

They all should be fixed. I am half way through the first game so far and I will probably update the review again soon.
