"Chill out" Dixit the guy who insults me by explaining a rotten morality, And the worst part is that I admire Rayman Polokurse enormously. :/
"rotten morality"? :lol: now that's an insult if i've ever seen one, i haven't insulted you at all, i think the issue is that you just can't handle the way i speak and express myself, which is fine, it's not for everyone

but if you really want to call me out on something then you shouldn't do that same something and act like it's all my fault :lol:

plus you can still enjoy polokurse, nobody's stopping you from that, i am just the artist after all :mryellow:

I have an unpopular opinion, the lead composer and additional coder for Polokurse smells! :P

Or wait, that is popular. :lol:

Unpopular Opinions : I do not want to insult the work of Rémi Gazel (rest in peace great composer of the Glade of Dreams) but I do not find it as good as the other Ost, Christophe Héral has much better music for me

I seen that a lot of people dislike the music in Rayman 2 also. It's a little repetitive but it's still good in my opinion. Rayman 3 is more like hip-hop.

Well it comes from a sample database, isn't it? That's why it sounds a bit repetitive sometimes...

Yeah exactly, I think it's from some Roland synthesiser.

Uo : The disco board is not as fun as they say, it's true that it's nice, but it really hurts the eyes (I know there are also 8-bit music levels but it's not as bad...)

Alright, let's return to more quiet unpopular opinions, now shall we? :hap:

I think the power to shoot freezing projectiles in Rayman Rush wasn't totally a bad idea if it would have been properly implemented, and we could have had some occasional weapons in races for Rayman M/Arena.

the reason why it sounds repetitive it's because they wanted to use motifs in the songs to make the game more fim-like, the main theme is present in alot of songs if you listen carefully

i love rayman 2's soundtrack, especially clark's theme, the cave of bad dreams, sanctuary of water and ice, the precipice, the prison ship, the iron mountains and ESPECIALLY the canopy, it's so funky and groovy and i adore it

that being said, rayman 3's soundtrack is SO MUCH BETTER
in terms of variety it's got so much going for it, the hoodoo theme is an easy pick, but there are some songs that just slap hard
my personal favourite are the spinneroo, the hoodboom, outside begoniax's house, cauldron chaos, the entire TOL ost and the reflux battle

Oh yeah I think most people would disagree with that!

Yes it is a little repetitive but I do like it too. In fact I like many pieces from all of the games, including Legends. But from the trilogy I can specifically pick which ones I like most.

Edit: D'oh geiger ninja posted me! :lol:

As critical as I can be of the modern and especially mobile games, I'd like Adventures to become officially available again and Mini to be released on more platforms so I can actually try that one.

I actually feel the same way you do if you're serious about that one. I didn't play either that or Mini tbh and I'd only want to try just to see how it plays out (my hopes are at -14 and they're probbly gonna dip further after i play them :lol: )

Ah yes, I forgot about RayTunes embeds being a thing. They used to be so poorly optimised before that they would actually trigger DDoS protection. :P

Mini looks like it's got some creative things in it, it's a shame that it's yet another exclusive, it makes me wonder why they did it again after the whole wiiu legends fiasco :mefiant:

But they were all good songs though!
