I must agree with Rayman Saturn: while I appreciate the effort, I'm not particularly excited over what appears to be little less than a glorified cameo. Sticking Rayman in a universe where he doesn't belong isn't gonna make me want to play the game: would you buy the latest Assassin's Creed or Call of Duty just because it featured Rayman as a playable character? At least I've read that Mario + Rabbids is pretty good, but I don't have the time (or will) to play every good game on Earth and an out-of-place Rayman isn't going to change anything to that.Rayman Saturn wrote: Sat Sep 10, 2022 10:51 pm Meh. Not what I would call an actual return.
It’s cool, yeah, and I’m happy for everyone excited for it, but it’s nothing more than crossover content. A DLC for a game very different from Rayman’s typical gameplay styles, no less... Ubisoft is not promising anything else for the franchise, so we could just get even more years of nothing besides the usual side content like that or rehashed mobile game.
Rayman deserves a lot better, and especially something more fitting for a platformer when we got almost nothing and just a few lazy recycled games for years since Legends. If this had been another franchise like Metroid, this most likely would have been received about as poorly as Federation Force when it was revealed. When you’ve done nothing or hardly anything good for years, you don’t simply return with spin-off content.
Still, it’s positive news, and I’m grateful for the team’s work on it, but I think the Rayman franchise deserves more than crumbs. Like, you know... a new main game or that "3D Rayman 4" that has been requested for over 18 years. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Also, it still has the Rabbids so I’m automatically not interested.![]()
Until the day Rayman returns with a main franchise, 3D game set in the universe we all know, the series will remain in limbo and every such minor appearance will be yet another testament to its slow death.
