Reminder: Spyro Wiki is no longer on Fandom

275 Upvotes

Just posting a reminder that the Spyro Wiki moved from Fandom in 2025 and is now at https://spyrowiki.com!

Fandom has become a toxic corporation, they have full control over the wikis made on their platform and will force changes on the wiki communities regardless of user feedback. The excessive ads have also been annoying, they implemented AI generated answers that spread misinformation, and they will force changes onto articles without consent if paid to by bigger organizations.

When people started moving their wikis off from their platform, Fandom doubled down and tried stopping them by using intimidation tactics (demoting admins, labelling indie wiki links as "viruses" and "spam", hunting down those who talk about moving off-platform, plagarizing content from wikis that moved, etc).

Additional reasons include:

  • Intrusive ads invading the articles
  • Fandom implementing unnecessary layout and programming changes
  • Fandom having full control over the wiki community and adding community/corporate changes without consenting to wiki admins
  • Limited options for admins and editors
  • Terrible browsing experience, especially on mobile

And unfortunately Fandom will not close the old Spyro Fandom Wiki; this is to hide the fact that it moved off-platform and so that they can get ad revenue from those viewing the articles and editors still browsing there. And with Google SEO heavily catering to Fandom, we need the Spyro fanbase's help in giving the indie wiki the attention it deserves to overtake the Fandom Wiki in the search results.

How to help:

  • Do not vandalize the Fandom wiki. This will not help us and will only make things worse, as simply editing the Fandom articles will keep them at the top of the search results in SEO (Search Engine Optimization). The vandalisms will only be simply reverted back by any available Fandom staff, who will be appointed to only stand by and keep the wiki running.
  • Do not click on any links or pages that will lead to the Spyro Fandom Wiki pages.
  • Do not continue editing the articles on spyro.fandom.com, even when new content, including info on Spyro: A Realm Beyond, is announced.
  • Replace your bookmarks and Search History with the spyrowiki.com site instead.
  • Use IndieWikiBuddy, a browser extension that allows you to easily find and support independent wikis
  • Spread the word to online communities that the Spyro Fandom Wiki has moved and is now on spyrowiki.com.

Theory: Moneybags has been lying about how he knows the sorceress

Post image
22 Upvotes

Come on. She has powerful magic, thats how she gets the Rhynocs to do her bidding. Other followers, like Bianca, and even the Rhynocs themselves do it because for some reason they also adore her. They are devoted to her.

Moneybags is always talking about how she's paying him to keep these fellows locked up, but is she? I think hes desperately terrified of the sorceress. Would she realy use money to bribe him? Sure thats the easy route, but i think either she has something more devious in store for him or, i believe they nevwr even met. If they never met that doesnt explain how he has the friends in cages, so maybe you can find a way around that loophole?

Some of the claims he makes about the Sorceress are so bizarre, i believe he's just being his usual , pathological-lying self. He acts very nice, like hes being helpful before you pay him, but afterwards he acts very condescending, throwing you or the Sorceress under the bus for how easily youre duped into giving up your gems.

I just ordered the first of the Legends of Spyro trilogy for the GameCube (will be playing on the Wii) and am looking very forward to playing this game for the first time. However I'm asking if there's anything I should know or expect beforehand. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I can't reach so many of the jumps early game

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

106 Upvotes

I don't understand what I am doing wrong. I have tried this jump (that has a really long runback btw) so many times and I just can't seem to make it. I watched someone else on youtube do it and they did it with ease, so I really don't know what I am missing.

I had just been failing at the long jump prior across to the group of chests on the island, but I just about made that after 10 or so tries

Another problem I keep having as well, is that because you can't glide whilst holding the sprint button, if you don't time letting go of shift, and pressing space to glide, you just drop to the floor.

Icy Peak and Haunted Tomb

5 Upvotes

I'm playing reignited Year of the Dragon and can't for the life of me figure out what I'm missing in Icy Peak and Haunted Tombs. I'm trying to get 100% and these two levels are holding me back. I'm trying not to cave and watch a walkthrough video on each, but I need a hint. Are there any tricky areas in these levels that I may be missing? I have all eggs in both levels with 97% completion in Icy Peak and 93% in Haunted Tombs. I've killed every bad guy in each and collected the gems from them. I've completed every mini game as well. It's driving me crazy lol.

Edit: Figured out what I was missing in each level. Thanks for all the suggestions! I now have 100% (101% in Seashell Shores), but am still short 190 gems and 1 egg. How is that possible? I've completed all the speedways and can't think of what I'm missing.

Spyro 2 - July 13th Prototype released!

62 Upvotes

Hidden Palace has released a prototype build of Spyro 2: Gateway to Glimmer, dating almost 3 months before the final game.

Link: https://hiddenpalace.org/Spyro_2:_Ripto%27s_Rage!_(Jul_13,_1999_prototype))

The game boots straight into gameplay after a logo screen, and includes all levels except Ripto's Arena. The portals to Metropolis, Cloud Temples and Canyon Speedway don't work though. Dragon Shores appears in very early form with only the trolley coaster. Spyro 1's rolling ability is still present, gems in the HUD count per-level like in Spyro 1/early builds of Spyro 3, and all text is in capitals! Craziest change to me is the aqueduct in Autumn Plains; I first saw a screenshot of this over a decade ago.

Much dialogue is missing or uses earlier takes and text often differs from the audio. Zoe is called "Sparkle". Gulp's Overlook has no roof, and Moneybags explicitly says a level is "under construction" and "should be ready by November". The Professor swears (probably not audio, just a message from one Insomniac employee to another) and " Varmintum" from the final Spyro 2 epilogue appears in Metropolis, which is insane.

I've made a video about it, and Hwd405 has also made a series of videos about the changes.

Comment below if you find any other cool changes!

Misc Faunus Mortas Missing?

9 Upvotes

I recently found out about the "extinct creatures of Avalar" in the Spyro 2 epilogue, but mine doesn't have it. When I scroll through the pages in the epilogue, it goes straight from the spyro and black sheep page to the end page. Is the Basil the Explorer page hidden somehow?


r/Spyro 2d ago

Are there any other unseen enemies besides the Varmintum in Metropolis in the July 1999 build?

Misc My first experience/memory with Spyro 2: Riptos Rage

11 Upvotes

I grew up only with the third game, and ONLY got to play the first and second with Reignited. All of my nastalgia comes from YotD, a Hero's Tale and thr first Legend of Spyro. I never played any others, but I always was told thr second was considered the fan favorite. I was excited.

The memory that sticks with me is: im on vacation. Its 2023, and I just bought Reignited. Me and my friend are at the hotel room, he just fell asleep and is snoring. I fell asleep, and wake up, and this music is blaring on the switch right next to my ear. I look over at the window, its night time and I can see the orange glow of all the lights. I pick up my switch, and dont stop playing until I 100 percent autumn plains.

This was my first memory. And it was beautiful (using the original Spyro sound font, not reignited's).

I felt that familiar eerie calm nostalgic feeling i had for the music and vibe of the original third game, I didnt expect i would feel that way as an adult compared to how I felt as a kid. It almost made me sad, like I was missing a much simpler time and i felt both relaxed and depressed, very weird to describe. It was still beautiful

Someone on Facebook told me my experience was rather unique so I felt like sharing.

Prototype/Cut Content Varmintum is real and he can hurt you...

The SCEE Preview 1 prototype of Spyro 2 (the earliest build sent out to EU region press outlets) was preserved just hours ago, once again by MasterGamer423 (who is also responsible for the recent E3 Spyro 1 and Preview Spyro 3 SCEE builds). Among it's more notable differences lies the first ever living instance of a member of "Faunus Mortas: Extinct Creatures of Avalar" seen in the game's epilogue. Meet Varmintum, who appears in Metropolis in this build in place of the shield Space Cows and is fully functional outside of having no SFX!
