Spyro 2: Top 5 WORST Challenges!

[@MiharuTheFox]

Check out the Reignited version of this video! ➡️ kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5O4Z4qsl9Kri7M

[@ElmerFudd16]

For 19 years, many men and women have gone on crusades to defeat the tyranny of Ripto. They all faced hardships, yet managed to overcome and be victorious. However, 5 words will haunt each and every one of them for all of time... *"Trouble with the Trolley, eh?"*

[@benbacon7654]

@Zachary Erickson They might add into the remake, considering that it part of the original.

[@PatrickCervantez]

I wish you could post gifs in KZbin comment sections. I have a triggered gif of Crush from his reignited promo.

[@Heroshii15]

Also, I'm pretty sure that voice is Gregg Berger, who is returning for the remake.

[@benbacon7654]

@@Heroshii15 If he is, then I would love to hear him say "Trouble with the trolley, eh?" in the remake.

[@deedreetmage4678]

That one wasn't too bad to my recollection. Might take a while but compared to the others on the list, it was just fine.

[@mercenarygundam1487]

Trouble with the trolley eh? *Cue PTSD*

[@kaylamurkot]

That quote gives me PTSD...

[@GenerationWest]

I honestly had a problem with that Ox in Metropolis than the trolley, and trolley gave me Nam flashbacks once.

[@jam9852]

Trouble with the trolley Ay

[@MyEmeraldLife]

I didn't realize how much PTSD I had from some of these challenges until I watched this video...

[@SimanSlivar]

Wouldn't have been bad if we got a camera that was worth a shit...

[@countrywave4840]

I've never understood why either Hunter or anyone else on my side would obstruct my goal of saving the world... "Hey, you only need one thing to face the final boss and get us all out of here and I happen to have this item. But play my minigame first. And if you lose, play it over and over."

[@shadowwolfgaming4052]

The alchemist one caused me such frustration and rage when i was a child. Also the one after it when you had to headbash the earthshapers when hunter shot them with his bow. Also great video Miharu! Always love your content.

[@liamroberts1458]

Yeah. They like to get up *just* as you're about to land the killing blow. And of course, jackarse Hunter shoots several of them at once, so when you've killed one, the others start getting up again, and you fail.

[@darthnecrosaberjacobrandal4247]

Hunter's popcorn Crystal collect was the most annoying for me

[@MasterAnakinSkyWalker]

Darth Necrosaber Jacob Randall - Agreed. I think Hunter cheats at that game. He seems to know where the crystals will pop up before they start steaming up. Also, he’s somehow able to grab the crystals even if you jump for them. Like I said, that son of a bitch cheats.

[@bennu547]

I’m a weird minority who actually likes the crystal popcorn challenge. And Tree Tops is one of my favourite stages

[@jebhelsing147]

Tree tops blows but yea Idk the popcorn one I don’t have much trouble with, like there are multiple popping

[@matthewkuscienko4616]

I feel like the crystal popcorn challenge is one of the hardest ones in the whole game -- I very often need several attempts before I get both orbs -- because of this, I was really surprised when I was showing the game to a friend of mine, and in my playthrough, I got both orbs in 1 try each! I think it was more luck than anything, though, those orb challenges are always difficult, and it's because of 2 main factors: 1) It can be difficult to tell where exactly the crystals will pop up, and it's easy to lose track of where the steam is, or even just get a bit overwhelmed when more than 1 steam trail is coming out of the ground. 2) Hunter is a freaking MACHINE in the second orb challenge -- you can be in the lead, only to have him randomly start grabbing 3 or more crystals in a row and suddenly take the lead away, and if you start to get too overwhelmed, he can win by a pretty big lead surprisingly fast. That said, as hard as the challenge is for me, I still find it to at least be kind of fun, which is more than I can say for some of the other orb challenges in this video -- most notably that stupid alchemist, which I always wait to get that orb until my second time through Fracture Hills due to not wanting to unnecessarily be forced to play that challenge twice

[@Vigilance779]

That popcorn challenge was the reason I’ll never play this series again

[@benbacon7654]

I don't get this: the infamous "Trouble with the trolley, eh?" line was annoying when the game first came out, and now it's become something of a meme in today's culture.

[@tb3411]

It's because it sounds trollish. It's used for shitposting.

[@LunarEquity93]

Great video some of the challenges in this game are pretty tricky especially one of the skill points in fracture hills to where you have to complete three laps of supercharge I completed it on my first try before but I struggled with it at first and after I got used to playing this game I got better playing it

[@tylerminoske544]

This really made my day! Thank you! :D

[@StoicVeR]

I hope in the remake they add voice overs mid mini game for the Alchemist, just to emphasize how ludicrous and senile he is while walking around these massive boulder builder bois. It'll be both infuriating, and hilarious

[@BearsBound0809]

I am sooooo glad that hunter challenge was your number one. I stayed in the same boat as you and the path to get hunter the potion was my worst one forever. I finally went back to replay spyro 2 a few years back and I came across this hunter mission and forgot all about it. Was freakin horrible lmao. Great list

[@SirIkeMedia]

I love the uncensored rants on some of these Orb Challenges! lol I agree these were all annoying as hell. Hopefully they will make them more bearable in the Spyro 2 remake.

[@deedreetmage4678]

#5: Never had problems with this one to my recollection #4: I agree that the supercharge sucks and it does affect the challenges that use it. #3: Annoying and takes multiple attempts to get the pattern right. I agree with this one. #2: Definitely a massive pain and more so if you completed it the first time without the headbash, you need to do it again when you come back with the upgrade. #1: Tedious but compared to number 2, this isn't as bad.

[@gekoncze94]

Where is secret agent??? I agree with most of those, but I actually loved the supercharge mission in fracture hills. There was the skill point for 3 laps of supercharge without stopping and I remember going on and on counting the laps x)

[@deedumdim]

You did a great job on this video! Keep up the good work, proud'a you.

[@LunarEquity93]

And some of those challenges get pretty easy and much easier once you've gotten and unlocked the permanent superflame power up in Dragon shores by getting 100% & one of the games I completed 100% was under 2hrs & 30 minutes on the reignited trilogy & the thing that makes me rage is the glitches that happen

[@swapbloodcell]

i love this rant! one of the best spyro related vids ever

[@Omegajunior2658]

Hi Miharu the Fox, thanks for showing your video. Yeah I'm sure those orb challenges in Spyro 2: Gateway to Glimmer (known as Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage in the USA and Canada) can be very frustrating and irritating as well. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪!

[@jadeddragon8972]

I just came across these videos, love them! The trolley part made me laugh out loud!!

[@Phoenixfirex]

Getting the Supercharge skillpoint in Fracture Hills was so F***ing Annoying. Being on the last lap, and then an Earthshaper decides to smack you... *HA HA HA!*

[@VeggehGaming]

It's amazing how I completely agree with your list and yet I still find that 3 of these 5 (Skelos Badlands, Fracture Hills and Magma Cone) are some of my favourite levels from the entire trilogy. Despite how infuriating these challenges can get there is something about those levels that really makes it fondly memorable to me, whether that be general gameplay, the aesthetic, or the music.

[@marsvin55]

I love your videos so much , Would be great if they where longer ;)

[@MiharuTheFox]

I'll now be putting language warnings on my videos, as some people have expressed concern with some of the words I use in the script or the jokes made in editing.

[@crampedmisfit]

Discount those people.... trust me.

[@hysteric_games1239]

How naughty we are!

[@3godzilla3]

Much appreciated! You're awesome, Miharu! (:

Who cares what they fucking think but just put language warning so they shut the flying fuck up. XD

[@hysteric_games1239]

Fawk yeah!

[@Jpinkyfan]

Uhh I didn’t realize that u could lose the dinosaur challenge. I just killed them and thought that was the challenge. I must of got lucky

[@PandemicCat7]

Damn near threw my controller during the ice hockey one lol

[@LadyKappa95]

The Pop-corn challenge is HELL in the Japanese version! I've made a let's play of that version of the game and omg...If you don't know, in the Japanese version they slowed down Spyro's charge! That's also a horrible situation during Hunter's challenge in Fracture Hills (you have to be PERFECT if you want to win) and the second Lava Lizard challenge in Skelos Badlands.

[@LadyKappa95]

@Zachary Erickson Well yea, I've always played the PAL version. That let's play I mentioned was made just for fun, and it was the first Italian let's play of the Japanese version on KZbin.

[@Jacob_G9]

OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH, I'm glad I played the NA version

[@Theevil6ify]

I can't find your video of the challenge on your channel I wanna see it

[@djtoxicdhg]

[@djtoxicdhg]

Know you know what it was actually your top challenges I'd like your favorite disliked levels Etc.

[@dumper87]

My most hated challenge was following Agent Waterhead to his hideout in Cloud Temple. Escorting the senile old alchemist was a close second. Worst part about the alchemist challenge was that you had to do it twice, if you didn't have the headbash move the first time.

[@FireKAT91]

You are spot on with this list! I am so glad I'm not the only one who hated that crystal popcorn mission the most. The lava lizards one was the only reason I kept using the manual. I could never get the pattern down. Now I'm used to it. And oh my gosh, that damn Alchemist!!!!!!!! He's probably the real reason Insomniac put that superflame powerup at the end of the game. They knew how annoyed we were going to be. But I think I would add Bombo's mission from Scorch on there. When there's plenty of space to run around, it's easier at first. It's when he gets closer to the exit that's the most frustrating.

[@rickypb3877]

I feel all the super charge challenges were easy, except for the pumpkin one I always screw up

[@killerbouquet3220]

Oh Lord I think I found my new favorite channel! What's up Miharu? I'm new around here and loving your content :)

[@MiharuTheFox]

Thank you and welcome!

[@KingNothing710]

I just finished Reignited Spyro 2 and I can confirm that these were also my 5 most hated challenges. The professors pencil challenge and following the secret agent spy to his base were also rough

[@davidbrussard-composer7372]

Well, this gave me PTSD. And soon I'll experience remade PTSD in a few months. Nice video, it made me really nostalgic and hyped for the Reignited Trilogy.

[@walter1383]

I warmed up to the crystal popcorn challenges; beating Hunter is always satisfying. But I definitely agree about the alchemist challenge though, the path finding made no sense and was super frustrating. Yet somehow they thought it was a great idea to implement the same challenge, slightly harder and TWICE in a row in Year of the Dragon. Meeeh... PS: I just realized your intro music is from Mystic Marsh! I adored that level. :)

[@3godzilla3]

I LOVE catching the popcorn!! It's so much fun, especially if you've mastered the controls after playing it for over 15 years. It's super satisfying to win when you have at least 4 more than he does. As for that alchemist...yeah, no, that's my least favorite challenge in all of Spyro. HE'S RIGHT THERE!!! At least horn diving into and OBLITERATING the Earth Shapers makes you feel a whole lot better, ahaha.

[@woahbunchwoahbunch9834]

3godzilla3 I agree the chemist it was extremely fun :)

[@smart.but.stupid]

But alchemist just walks in a path. You literally clear the challenge for 3-4 attempts. Dunno why everyone complains about it. I think the firefly twins in S3 were much worse. Two blind jerks, especially the second one.

[@3godzilla3]

@@smart.but.stupid I agree. Though for some reason the first twin always gave me more trouble...😅

[@smart.but.stupid]

@@3godzilla3 yeah, and you have to listen to their annoying "OOOOOWWWWW" over and over again when you start it all over xD

[@ECDT1089-EtheLamborghini]

It’s funny. I like Skelos Badlands, but I despise the lava lizard challenge

[@alx3296]

the breeze harbour one was one of my favourites ,,,, the challenging aspect of it- I love

[@acemcwolf5445]

Has everyone forgot that fact that if you don't have the headbash when you beat the alchemists challenge,It's basically a waste of effort?What with hunters challenge NEEDING the headbash.

[@Ori_Kohav]

Also, I'm surprised there's no mention of that stealth mission in Cloud Temple.

[@TheDirvish]

She cant cover all of them in a top five video. That, and the agent was easily among the easiest. You don't even have to hode if your far enough away. Just follow, stop. Follow stop follow stop et cetera

[@Ori_Kohav]

@@TheDirvish definitely easier in Reignited, but in the original, I found it to be pretty tedious. Also, distance doesn't help when having to go through the doors before they close.

[@lizgawin899]

@@Ori_Kohav agreed. oh those turtles in Sunny beach and those lava lizards. the trolley was meh for me but that alchemist though? seriously am i the only one who wanted to reach through the screen and slap the @$^@ out of him?

[@flufflepuff2320]

My least favorite challenges involve the timed/hard to control power ups, flight, super charge, super flame, ice, flight PLUS super flame, etc

[@CycatAnimation]

I didn't grow up with spyro at all but I bought Ripto's Rage just last year and "Trouble with the trolly, eh?" has been ingrained in my brain in such a way that brought back PTSD flashbacks from hearing it in this video just now. Thanks for that. 😆

[@otterbells]

I must be an outlier! :D The lava lizards are my FAVORITE challenge. The crystal popcorn is a challenge I also enjoyed, but I don't like Magma Cone that much, so it's not as high on my list. The supercharge route in Robotica Farms is one of the many reasons I dislike that level, though. I just. HATE IT. Honorable mention suggestion? Breaking the Targets in Canyon Speedway, where you ride on Hunter's UFO thing. I absolutely DESPISED it as a kid.

[@petermokran381]

There is trick to the your number 1 spot challenge. You have to wait at the crossing when the thing is going to pop and then at the same time you have to be scanning area for more steam so you have the time to strategize where to go next, because if you wait until you grab the gem (or whatever is coming up) you are wasting time and never gonna win. I learnt that yesterday when I played remake of spyro 2.

[@captainnintendo]

The charging controls is probably the worse part of Spyro 2 for me personally. You turn way to tight and the fact that the camera takes too long to position behind you makes it extremely tedious to maneuver. I really liked this video. Will definitely be subbing for more :3

[@Wolvandhiek]

Definitely the alchemist mission

[@SpaceMetalFerrari248]

“Trouble with the trolley, eh?” Fucking hell, the quantity of times I have heard that is more than the amount of stars in this galaxy...

[@DestinationMarc]

Great list! I agree with ALL of these lmao; these challenges were no joke as a kid, and can still be annoying today for us as adults! Wonder how newcomers to Spyro will react to these in "Reignited;" hopefully they've improved these challenges to some degree!

[@TheDixieDerg]

Time to torture myself by doing all the side quests for an absurdly long time for free content

[@BeanBag343]

"Trouble with the trolley, eh?" was soooooo annoying as a child! But now it just brings back all the memories of playing this with my older brother. They were good times. So that mission is now actually one of my favorites 💙

[@fawn8347]

It seems the Crystal Popcorn challenge falls into two camps - it's either one of the easier challenges in the game, or one of the most frustrating. For me, the big ones I dread doing are the trolley (because let's face it, near everyone had that one growing up), the Fracture Hills supercharge challenge, the alchemist because it always seemed like the Earthshapers could hit you regardless of whether you jumped or not, and navigating the propellers in Hurricos (mostly for how tricky it could be to judge distance, to know where the propeller would be when you got to it, and because if you failed there was only one place in the level you could get back up and try again)

[@syxodude91]

The one where you gotta follow that guy back to his secret base in Cloud Temples was also annoying. Especially the last part where you have to hide behind the trees because the camera can really fuck you up on that part.

[@junkieclub]

I haven’t played Spyro 2 in forever and when I heard “trouble with the trolly aye?” I had a ptsd flashback

[@Jdoesstuff]

A couple other things that made the crystal popcorn minigame infuriating was the tanky turning controls for Spyro in the classics. Another big thing was that the camera was always zoomed into you and not spread out to the entire arena, making it even harder to see where the crystal popcorn will pop up!

[@rainbowbrony12]

Funny story about the crystal popcorn minigame. I originally beat spyro 2 and unlocked dragon shores, but never 100% completed the game when I was a kid. It wasn't until 2016 when I decided to dust off my old ps2 and see if my copy still worked. It did, and I decided to finally 100% the game. It was during this replay that I discovered the crystal popcorn minigame. In all my time playing it when I was younger, I never even knew this challenge existed, and I remember wishing I'd never found out about. It was by far the most infuriating minigame in the entire game imo. I was 20 at the time I first played it.

[@hikaritakahashi9411]

My top 5 Hated Spyro 2 Challenges: 5. Trolley- Breeze Harbor: Low on the list because I had problems with it when I was little, but got better when I was older. 4. Hula Girl- Idol Springs: Another one that was hard when I was little. It still takes me awhile to complete this challenge, though. 3. Saving the Turtles From the Chef- Sunny Beach: When I was younger, I had no grasp on the fact that hitting the turtles in the direction of the water pool with enough force would send them right into it. I just sent them off away from the pot and prayed they'd land in the pool. 2. Crystal Popcorn- Magma Cone: Hated this challenge as a kid, still hate it now. I had a point where I could do it with no problem, but lately I can't really do it anymore. 1. Agent Zero- Cloud Temples: I hate stealth missions in games and this challenge is without a doubt the reason why I do. To this day, I can't complete this challenge; my younger sister did it once but told me "never again!" because of how many times it took her to complete it.

[@DarknessIsTheTruth]

Spyro 1: Thank you for releasing me! Spyro 2: Trouble with the Trolley, eh? Spyro 3: OWWW! I went Boom again!

[@ToddtrousGaming]

I remember doing the 'protect the villagers' quest in Skeloes Badlands for like an hour before finally getting it.

[@ESCStroopwafel]

I think I speak for everyone when I say "I've spent two hours in a maze with snail elephants, LOOKING FOR A PENCIL"

[@MiharuTheFox]

That's actually my favorite challenge in Spyro 2. I always had a lot of fun exploring the level to find where to put the items.

[@ESCStroopwafel]

@@MiharuTheFox Eh, it was a reference to a Spyro parody kzbin.info/www/bejne/d2LKn3Wdm7aXnac

[@GemGames3]

Haha I love the Popcorn challenge lmao, It was fun stealing the popcorn from Hunter.

[@MurdockCakeLie]

Ah, fond memories playing this game growing up even though I’m only 7 and my family can only afford the old PlayStation we found under the train tracks out by the graveyard in town. I found it in a back right before lightning struck the rails, raising hundreds of the corpses back to life. Anyway this was the only game I had until my dad came back and sold it to buy condoms so he didn’t make more of me. Great video!

[@djtoxicdhg]

Oh yeah and I must say I feel like it's a missed opportunity whenever you did the trouble with the trolley a line and you didn't distort the audio and make super high pitch to make it sound super dank lmfao

[@MiharuTheFox]

I actually did that in my Spyro 2 review.

[@AnomalyAlter]

*TROUBLE WITH THE TROLLEY EH?* It still makes me panic a little bit just hearing it. Good list, definitely agree with the placements. Happy to say the improved camera controls for the remakes should cause the turbo charge challenges much easier

[@KovutheVA]

Wow a video of your troubled past How emotional

[@HardRockRock12345]

I always liked the Breeze Harbour challenge. Lava lizards round 2 is memorizing the pattern so I'm not a huge fan of that. It's impossible until it's actually not that bad. Crystal Popcorn can be tedious but I guess I've played the game so many times it's gone easy for me. Last time I played I beat it on first try without problems. The most annoying ones for me has to be the Alchemist one and the Hunter mission after that.

[@Zookstar1000]

5. Honestly its not so much the idea of this challenge as much as it is the design of it. Sometimes its hard to predict which obstacles will suddenly appear. It doesn't help that the gears are scattered in so many branching paths. 4. Again, this is more to do with the fact that Insomaniac decided to ditch the ground arrows and just put the supercharge on the powerup gates, but yea I agree. Thank god they brought the arrows back in 3. 3. Truth be told I don't really have too much trouble with this challenge. I do get a screw up from time to time but other than that I'm usually too quick. lol 2. Bloody Alchemist should've gone to Specsavers. lol 1. Ooooooh definitely. Hunter, this challenge isn't even fair! You're a cheetah! You're far too fast for me! lol An annoying orb challenge for me would also be that Hunter paragliding challenge in Icy Speedway. Spyro gets dragged by his crotch (lol) and has to paraglide through 50 rings. Doesn't sound so bad right? Except the controls for paragliding are rather janky that you often miss rings because you were either too early or too late. Sly Cooper did paragliding better. Overall another good list Miharu! ^^

[@tb3411]

Did you know you can cheese the trolley mission with a glitch? You can easily pull off a swim in the air glitch in Breeze Harbor.

[@rayvenkman2087]

Many people practiced playing Spyro with the tutorials and getting to grips with the control. However none of it can prepare you the horrors of these challenges.

[@DrRoo-qj9np]

A thing that helps with super charge challenges is switching from the D-pad to analog controls. They're slightly more sensitive to your input which can make a huge difference in my experience!

[@Tombola1993]

The Alchemist and Lava Lizard challenges were my worst. Along with retrieving the flags in scorch and flaming those scarecrow bugs in Robotica Farms.

[@itsybitsyusitka2170]

Fractured Hills' super charge challenge can at least be cheesed by doing a tricky boost jump from the power-up gate that lands you behind the structure where the faun is locked. If you can keep the momentum after the initial jump, you can just circle around it and break the door without having to go through the whole map-long path. No such saving grace in Robotica Farms.

[@MiharuTheFox]

I was actually referring to the metal chest challenge, which is why it didn't appear on the list.

[@flamingdragon1527]

‘Good, let the hate flow right through you’ *EMBRACE IT*

[@BangersAndMashmonkey]

There are SO MANY challenges in Ripto's Rage, and Year of the Dragon that I just cannot beat AT ALL no matter HOW HARD I try!! Aside from Trolley Trouble, I, COMPLETELY, agree with all of the other challenges on your list, and more! And, it doesn't even help that I'm stuck playing the PAL versions! I just hope that Reignited improves on the games's old mistakes, so that, maybe, these challenges can be A LOT more fun... The challenges I despise from both games are:- Ripto's Rage:- 1) Colossus - Hockey vs. Goalie 2) Colossus - Hockey one on one 3) Ocean Speedway 4) Ocean Speedway - Follow Hunter 5) Sunny Beach - Turtle Soup 2 6) Crystal Glacier - Draclet Cave 7) Skelos Badlands - Lava Lizards 1 8) Skelos Badlands - Lava Lizards 2 9) Fracture Hills - Alchemist Escort 10) Magma Cone - Crystal Popcorn 1 11) Magma Cone - Crystal Popcorn 2 12) Metro Speedway 13) Metro Speedway - Grab the Loot 14) Icy Speedway 15) Icy Speedway - Icy Paraglide 16) Fracture Hills - Earthshaper Bash 17) Shady Oasis - Free the Hippos 18) Robotica Farms - Exterminate the Crow Bugs 19) Cloud Temples - Agent Zero's Secret Hideout 20) Metropolis - Ox Bombing 21) Canyon Speedway 22) Canyon Speedway - Shoot the Balloons Year of the Dragon:- 1) Sunny Villa - Hop to Rapunzel 2) Seashell Shore - Destroy the Sand Castle 3) Mushroom Speedway - Race the Butterflies 4) Crawdad Farm 5) Icy Peak - Protect Nancy the skater 6) Enchanted Towers - Trick Skater 2 7) Spooky Swamp - Escort the Twins 1 8) Spooky Swamp - Escort the Twins 2 9) Bamboo Terrace - Shoot from the boat 10) Country Speedway - Race the Pigs 11) Bamboo Terrace - Smash to the Mountain Top 12) Spider Town 13) Frozen Altars - Box the yeti 14) Frozen Altars - Box the yeti again 15) Frozen Altars - Catch the ice cats 16) Lost Fleet - Skate race the rhynocs 17) Lost Fleet - Skate race Hunter 18) Fireworks Factory - Ninja HQ 19) Fireworks Factory - Bad dragon 20) Charmed Ridge - Cat witch chaos 21) Honey Speedway - Race the Bees 22) Starfish Reef 23) Fireworks Factory - You're doomed 24) Fireworks Factory - You're still doomed 25) Crystal Islands - Whack a mole 26) Haunted Tomb - Tank Blast 1 27) Haunted Tomb - Tank Blast 2 28) Dino Mines - Shafted 29) Dino Mines - Gunfight at the Jurassic Corral 30) Harbor Speedway - Race the Blue Footed Boobies 31) Bugbot Factory Most of the time, I only, EVER, manage to scrape by with just enough orbs, or eggs, to challenge the final bosses in both games. However, I NEVER have enough to access either Dragon Shores, or the Secret Bonus Round...

[@MiharuTheFox]

Already working on it.

[@boopie1313]

The Popcorn one always gets me at times!

[@dreamweaver6017]

Here's a tip for the crystal popcorn follow Hunter to wherever he goes and stand on the crack don't jump if you just run to the place he's at and stand on the crack the popcorn will literally pop up to you when you're over it it doesn't even take a millisecond because you're already standing over it so it's going to touch you the second it goes out of the crack... that's the easiest way to steal the popcorn from him. but you have to get there early or you can follow him over and jump to catch the popcorn before he does

[@sammyhiggs4202]

I’m looking forward to rage again, I did it while playing Crash remake. I think I’m very good at playing the original 3 Spyro games but Reignited is a remake so I’m curious to how much I’ll have trouble lol.

[@natarthegreatar3515]

not to mention w the alchemist if you don’t know you need the headbash for the second part you have to REDO the first part

[@liamroberts7512]

You should definitely do a top 5 for most annoying Year of the Dragon challenges. One that springs to mind is Demolition Derby... Need I say more?

Honestly, the crystal popcorn challenge would’ve been my number one pick as well… if not for me playing the Demo years back before playing the actual game, thus allowing me to get plenty of practice before reaching that level in the actual game. Thank you Crash Team Racing!

I'm totally agree with you. These Orb Challenges used to annoy out of me. And they are still annoy me.

In the remake I was able to beat the alchemist challenge with one try, thanks to the right joystick camera control. Amazing how a small change made such a huge difference.

What about the dracklets in Crystal Glacier?

I remember the popcorn mini game! I thought it was really fun! (If I went back and played it today, that opinion might change, though...) I don't mind Hunter's mini games in general. I get the impression that he doesn't take Ripto seriously as a threat, so he holds on to the orbs as rewards for beating his challenges. I like him when he's acting as a rival for Spyro, since having someone you're competing with makes for good motivation. The alchemist can go eat a sock, though. (Not because he's a goat, but because he's a stupid jerk.)

The worst part of the alchemist mission is that you have to do it twice to get to the hunter mission if you do it before you get the headbash

[@mediawatcher9225]

And your gonna have to do it all over again!

[@djtoxicdhg]

O GOD NO PLEES GOD NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@FoxoticTV]

I would do it 15 times over again 15 times _15 times_ *_With the JOJ_*

The trick to Hunter’s mission is to get the crystals he goes after. Grab em before he does

I actually don’t remember raging my brains out as often for #1. I guess I had raw strength.

That Goodfellas quote was so unexpected (my favorite line from the movie) and I laughed my ass off

My most hated challenge isn't even in the original trilogy. It's the Professor's time travel quest in Honey Marsh from Spyro Season of Ice. Basically in order for the Proffesfor to be able to travel into the past Spyro needs to lure 4 different bees out of they're hives and onto flowers cause his time machine is sunk in honey. 3 of them aren't so hard and are fairly straight forward but in the last one drove me insane! Essentially the flower this Bee has to go is placed ontop of a cliffside and the beehive is on the bottom. Now that doesn't sound so bad but this is a GBA Spyro game we're talking about! You have to 100% precise other wise the bee will sting you and sting you to either faint get propelled off the edge and start this horrible chore all over again! And after you finally finish the mission hauling your poor bee sting ridden dragon hide back to the Professor he reveals why he wants to go back to the future. He wants his hair back! If it wasn't for how heinous MoneyBags is revealed to be in Season of Ice(He was okay with selling fairy's for mass profit) I'd hate The Professor more!

That alchemist and those lava lizards... I hate those two challenges the most. Oh an the one where you have to keep the chef from cooking the turtles in Sunny Beach, that one is a pain for me.
