A huge Black guy face with a cigar that was supposed to be in Rayman 1. Kind of makes you wonder what was he going to do in the game.

I'm a bit late to comment the recent two updates but I must say I am very satisfied to see finally the name of the location with the orient motives in Rayman Legends' challenges. The visuals of the scenarios are really pretty! Also, is it me or the new asian-alike enemies are a reference to Kill Bill? There was a level in particular that I enjoyed a lot involving rescuing Teensies in the rockets but you needed to reach them first than the lighted fuses, it was a different way to play this kind of mission :D. It reminded me of Croc 2's Roger the Red Ant levels.

I also just saw right now the new skins before going here... Grovebox's description!!!

As for the mechanics changes, I am pretty sure that Ubisoft was not happy for the fact of how easily people could get Golden Lucky Tickets without the need of spending/purchasing gems thanks to the now extinct Clone-O-Meter so they had to find other way to make it tougher. On the other hand we get awards more often and it is easier to get the creatures we want.

I don't get the "racist" part. What's racist in a fucking movie reference?

They're buck-tooth, squinty eye Asian stereotypes. It's not just a movie reference, its boiling down an entire culture (Or rather, two unrelated cultures) to a single recognizable person, that being Bruce Lee.

Again, there's one enemy that is a type of Japanese demon, why couldn't they ALL be like that instead of something so offensive?

Yes. Instead of getting duplicate eggs, you now get surprise eggs.

It's definitely an improvement. You get better stuff, only thing is now you won't be able to get gems quicker.

Haha I know you're joking but if that were the case, half the time you can't even finish the level with the trick because the second platform you have to glide all the way over to just sort of appears when it feels like it.

Yeah the enemies are totally racist, not sure what is with the total lack of awareness. Since I am old, I get that it's Bruce Lee and not Kill Bill, :roll: but it's way over the top. I know French animators over the years have tended to have sort of a mentality where things are stuck in United States circa 1940s in some respects, but everything in entertainment is global now, especially video games.

Geez, did you have all the achievements too? That sounds awful!
