If you look at Spyro’s demeanor, he stands out quite considerably compared to the other dragons you meet along the way. The basic premise: not overly complicated. To start, we must look at the original story of our plucky purple pal as he traverses through the six lands of the Realm of Dragons to stop the questionably dangerous Gnasty Gnorc from stealing all the treasure and trapping all the dragons in crystal.

Why are the villains so two dimensional with lackluster motivations? Skateboarding minigames? Television programs? Pencil fetch quests? How does that make sense?Īll these seemingly unanswered nonsensical moments keep popping up while pretending to weave them all into one cohesive story. It’s in the main hub world of the first game. Why is that? In Spyro 2, there’s another world Spyro wants to vacation in. By the end of the game, the player never discovers Spyro‘s purpose. There was a big emphasis on Spyro having some sort of destiny ahead of him in the first Spyro game. It was everything I remembered of the Playstation classics but with greater detail and a new whimsical charm that anyone could pick up and play.
Years later, and these games I loved as a kid got a new coat of purple paint as Spyro Reignited Trilogy hit store shelves where a new generation of gamers could experience this fantastical world I lost myself in long ago. So when I saw the old TV commercials of a game where you could play as a dragon rather than fighting one, it blew my little mind. Even as a child, I once came up with a video game concept centered around dragons. I write stories about them, draw them, and collect various dragon-themed items like figurines or plushies. It’s no secret to anyone who knows me that I am a massive dragon nerd. We spent much time on that baby, though one series I will always hold near and dear is the Spyro series.
Back in Christmas of 1998, my parents had surprised my brother and me with a Playstation, the first new console we had in years.
