I'm not sure I have that part figured out, even today. :oops2:
Me neither... and I don't think I ever will. :lol:

Now that the holidays are over and everyone's back or nearly back home, I think we can start figuring out some schedules! :mrgreen:

I'll have to check with Steo and Jonster on this, this weekend is Splatfest in Splatoon 3, and one other friend had plans at least for this Sunday evening, which was postponed from last Sunday. Now given the time zone advantage you guys have, judging from how things went last time between Master and myself it may not be an issue.

I'll let you know for sure what everyone says. :)

There is also the consideration that normal life obligations are likely to have resumed at this point, so availability in general may have changed.

Because they've pretty much abandoned the franchise? Who knows, maybe it would have been even worse with other game publishers. :fou2:

I haven't liked Ubisoft's policies at all, but I agree that I don't think it would change the situation much if another big company had the license. Just think about the types of games that are most popular today and the type of game Rayman is.

Does anyone remember in which interview Ancel confirmed Rayman's official height?

Awesome, thanks for the link! For me it's kind of difficult to understand what they're saying, but I think they mentioned that Globox is 2m tall?

I REFUSE to believe, or accept, that Rayman is almost as tall as a full-grown human. That would be freakin’ terrifying. I mean, c’mon, Michel can’t even keep his characters consistent.

I still say Rayman is a tiny, tiny, puntable guy!

Oh lmao I didn't notice the booster seat in that ad! :lol:
As a short man myself I can understand the pain he might feel for being this short :lol:

I had no idea such figures had been confirmed by Ancel. He says 1.60 for Rayman, almost 2 metres for Globox and around 1.10 for the Teensies.

If only that were the only inconsistent thing with the series. :lol:

I only found out about this because Ryemanni mentioned it in his Rayman Iceberg video. I guess this could be added to the trivia sections of the character articles in the wiki.

Yes, that's probably a good piece of information to add, complete with a reference. :up:

Not sure about that height. Maybe they meant Rayman's height in Rayman 3? Here's a quick comparison.

Shall I try doing this with other games to see Rayman's real height? :lol:

Yup, and Teensies are supposed to be around 1.10m tall. Not sure about that :lol:

Bump.

It seems you can't buy the original trilogy in the Ubisoft store anymore, as the games were delisted. I don't think it's a big drama, as there are lots of links to download these games, but still, it's kinda strange, right? What are your thoughts on this? Maybe it's just a bug...

I saw that on Twitter and think it is a problem in some countries as the original trilogy is still available in the Italian Ubisoft Store.
I wonder what's going on, maybe it is better to ask Ubisoft support about it

The games are available in the Spanish store too. Nobody's mentioned anything, so probably it was just a bug.

Also, I've just realized a beer is more expensive than the old Rayman games :fou:
