I wonder what the new fans will be like. I hope it brings in a lot of younger kids into the fandom. Rayman is such a wonderful series to expand your imagination at that age :hap:

Good idea! I’ve never seen this video before but I’d love to have a little look back. I’ll give it a watch!

I watched that video when it first came out in 2020, it’s very amazingly done and also quite sad we did more to celebrate his anniversary than his own parents. Kinda like what happened with zelda’s 35th the following year

Unfortunately they are more attracted by atrocities without originalities such as war games and bland shootings and without magic ...
But I think Rayman's Legendary Adventures will make them discover better games.

You’re definitely right about that…as games become more focused on hyper-realism and only showing reality, an avant-garde game like Rayman is what people need right now. We need a way to escape into a world that is so far removed from our own that can show people that there is still imagination in the gaming industry.

Well I knew when I was growing up, everyone was so into Assassin’s Creed, Call of Duty and Black Ops. You might be right that maybe they want a little more whimsy since kids are liking games like Fortnite and Valorant, but I can only hope the pendulum swings around fully and kids realize how awesome an imaginative series like Rayman is.

Kids’ve definitely never have prioritised the best games, like there’s only a few people I know who actually appreciate rayman and other platformers more than basic shooting games

I totally agree !! What is the point of playing a game if it is to see reality ? Isn't the characteristic of video games, books, cinema or fiction itself to create dreams, imagination?

I think they are also victims of peer pressure as well. It’s more cool to say you’ve been getting into a violent shooter than a game like Rayman, unfortunately. There was one kid in my school that I had a lot of fun talking about Rayman 3 with, though. :hap:

I mean, they can kinda play what they like, good game or not, but I don’t really see the point

This is unrelated but can I just say it does my head in when kids say “rayman from rayman legends”

I would like to make a parenthesis : there is a license that has brought you as much happiness as Rayman ? (movie, series, book, games)

UUUUUUGH don’t even get me STARTED on that. When did Legends become his last name? :sad: I really hope that some of those kids checked out the other games at least, though. Legends is both the shortest and the farthest removed from what Rayman originally used to be.

Well almost, I’ve enjoyed playing the deathspank series and socialpoints mobile titles when I was young, but nothing can beat the masterpiece that rayman is. One of my best memories ever was being introduced by my friends brother in his PS3 :hap:

When my younger brothers annoying friends came round one of them watched me play origins on my 3DS and then he screamed
