[@PlanetZoidstar]

This is purely my headcanon...But I would suggest that Spyro beat Gnasty Gnorc again (offscreen) between 1 and 2 (after "here we go again"), and THAT is why he feels he needs a vacation. Going through all that ONCE would be enough, but TWICE? Yeah, the guy deserves a vacation.

[@Sakuya727]

Yeah that may actually be what happened since at the end of Spyro 1 some dragons were shown being re-crystallized, which kinda suggests Gnasty Gnorc wasn't really defeated....

[@dudewhersmacar7062]

Just an FYI: a lot of times names are changed in Europe to make translations easier; Ripto may not be easily written, or may sound similar to a word in a language, or Rage might have bad connotations in some region. Rather than making that sort of mistake, they give it "Gateway to Glimmer" which can be nicely translated into every language.

[@sarafontanini7051]

plus empahsises the new world that SPyro is exploring, rather than the new villain who doesn't have THAT much screentime

Yeah I think Spyro 3 has the most impressive variety and really improved on everything I didn't like about Spyro 2, so it isn't even close for me. In fact, I would probably rank Spyro 2 last in the trilogy. Still a great game, though, no doubt.

"Rage" means rabies in French so I guess it's possible. My understanding though, and I don't remember where I heard it, is that they thought people would be confused by having Ripto's name in the title because no one knew who he was and it's similar to Spyro?

I did the exact same thing with the homeworlds and just wandering around them as a kid. Between the music, the amazing colors, and the little touches like leaves gently falling, it was almost a dreamlike experience wandering through those homeworlds.

I know that sounds corny as hell, but... there you go.

Spyro 2 is my favorite in the trilogy too, and gives me flashbacks of my childhood every time I play it! (To be fair, I liked Spyro one as well. And the first world in Spyro one gives back really good memories.)

We had the Gateway to Glimmer title here in Australia, too. Not sure why though. I actually felt a bit sad that the Reignited Trilogy didn’t change it to Gateway to Glimmer for the regions that played it with that title... but it’s only a small thing, would have been cool if they did but it’s still an amazing remaster.

It's also called gateway to glimmer in australia too, really don't know why

The game does actually specifically state they they are Spirit Particles when you defeat enemies.
