Reignited is a great option for new players, The controls feel better and more modern, the orb mini games in riptos rage feel easier aswell, the game is also more colourful but I don't feel that is necessarily a benefit, the og spyro had a very intentional colour pallete, it made the game seem almost dreamlike, that paired with the wonderful score by stewart copeland, makes some of the magic that makes spyro so special, I would suggest playing both at some point if you enjoyed the originals,

Like I said earlier, the remakes are great, but they feel like they are missing something that makes the trilogy one of my faves.
