I wonder why Insomniac had all the gems the same shape in this particular game, but in the other two, they're different shapes. If anything, I reckon that in Spyro 1 and 3 they should all be the same shape because those two 'lands' are apart of the Dragon Realms, whereas Spyro 2 is supposed to be an entirely different realm.

Anyway, I don't know if this has been done before but which design of the gems do you prefer? Would you rather have them all the same shape, or have them in different shapes?

It's a random topic, but it randomly just popped into my head.

You mean their colors have changed? I don't remember anything about shapes.

All I remember is that they replaced the blue gems with purple ones. Hmm. Maybe I should play it again.

Just play the first level of Spyro 1 and look at each gem closely, then look at Spyro 2 and you'll see.

Oh! Now I see! Aren't the Spyro 1 gems rectangular while the Spyro 2 and 3 ones are diamond-shaped?

This may sound nerdy, but I know all the shapes of each gem colour in Spyro 2 and 3. Red ones are hexagonal, green ones are triangular, blue ones are rectangular, yellow ones are square and I think the purple ones are an octagon shape.

Cool, I don't really know what the shapes are, but if you are correct then that's awesome.

That's the tops. They are polyhedrons, but I don't remember the names.

Btw, The Forgotten Realms were abandoned by Dragons, so they were not totally connected.

Polyhedrons? Wow that's an unusual name that I've never heard of.

I may sound really dumb but I suppose the Forgotten Worlds were like the Dragon Lands. (The DraGOONRO Lands)

A polyhedron is a 3 dimensional figure.

That's a strange way of saying 'You're welcome', ahh well, what is normal anyway?

Normal is a fabricated and arbitrary value to define the nebulous points of societal acceptance on an equally fabricated and arbitrary spectrum of a nature floccinaunihilipilifilistic nature to those outside of a limit of points.
