Today is Rayman's 26th anniversary and here is a topic about it but I want to show you some stuff. So, I saw in Twitter, Rayman for Smash told people about something somebody wrote: https://twitter.com/FancyFather/status/ ... 4512332811 . Also, Ubisoft Canada has now made a tweet https://twitter.com/UbisoftCanada/statu ... 8098008064 about the anniversary and Ubisoft Montreal made a reply tweet. I think that the thing that that person wrote is kind of true. I don't think Rayman will get into Smash now I think after reading it but it's definitely not over for another Smash game. Don't give up hope! I think we should do what they said and not hostily let Ubisoft know that people want a new Rayman game. We need to show them that people love Rayman and we want him to come back.

Re: Rayman 26th Anniversary
I wouldn't call myself overly obsessive about him.
People are free to believe whatever they wish from those tweets, but personally, I don't buy it. It just seems like clickbait made to appease the more desperate Rayman fans who just want him to be acknowledged.
This beginning sentence even, raises red flags. This basically indicates that if people didn't constantly ask them for this, they wouldn't have bothered at all. Like they didn't give a crap for Rayman's 25th last year which was much more important. And, what's with the hesitation after the "we love Rayman"?By popular demand, and because we love #Rayman of course... Happy birthday to this OG hero

Re: Rayman 26th Anniversary
Why is the 25th more important? If you operate in base 13 for example, then that was boring old 1C, whereas this is an exciting 20th anniversary!
More seriously, I don't think there's hesitation there. It's a pause for dramatic effect, like a drum roll. I think it's entirely appropriate!
But it's just a tweet, nothing to get worked up over either way. I know the world in general doesn't operate according to this principle, but perhaps it should!
Also this whole "stan" thing is giving me MTI ideas…

Re: Rayman 26th Anniversary
This tweet (I have un-redacted the names here, not sure what the intention was), as correct as it is, is sadly nothing new. As I explained earlier, Ancel got tired of Rayman a long time ago, possibly as early as 1999, after Rayman 2 was released, and definitely for good in 2005, when Rayman 4 was cancelled. He has since wanted to grow past his first success, and he's had a lot more love for BG&E, which sadly, despite being a critical success, didn't sell so well and made it complicated to justify the development of a sequel. I can understand why he'd aspire to being known as more than just the creator of Rayman, but it's a shame for the series nonetheless. The upside of this is that his departure from the video game industry won't change much for the limbless character.Fancy Father wrote:Not only this but Michel Ancel, creator of Rayman, was growing tired of the character. Now I don't think this means they flat out don't or didn't care, but they wanted to move onto newer ideas and projects.
Anyway, happy birthday Rayman!

I can only guess that it was done to avoid Twitter's automatic tagging/indexing content by names. Why, though? Dunno.Hunchman801 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 03, 2021 1:39 pm (I have un-redacted the names here, not sure what the intention was)

Re: Rayman 26th Anniversary
Someone on Tumblr made a really neat Ray-Month Challenge where you draw a each day to a certain prompt regarding Rayman. For his 26th I think it'll be fun!
