He said the more intimate soundscape is more melancholy and dreamlike which he feels fits the atmosphere better.

I still prefer the PC one, but I totally see where he's coming from.

in Forever (not just the GoG version), the Caves of Scops and Dream Forest level tracks are mismatched. It's so weird lol. It kind of works for the dream forest though

Unpopular(?) opinion, the magican's voice in the US intro for R1 fits way better.

That’s not unpopular, he fits the into better for certain but not the character himself m, as he’s supposed to be a bit quirky and I believe they almost nailed that in the UK release

Maybe, but I do have another unpopular opinion

Rayman legends artstyle is better than rayman origins artstyle. I know I’ve said the opposite before but I’ve changed my mind
