Re: Favorite character?
I’m fine with the new Polokus design, but I wish they’d kept more of his basic recognisable features (his purple-and-yellow hat, his blue pants with the golden buckle, and the fact that his arms were much longer than his legs). I suppose the idea that he’s a shapeshifter makes the redesign easier to swallow, but I’m not sure if his other forms (like the rock and the tree from the concept art) are even in the game any more.

But spiral's right, he is missing some key characteristics.

Same opinion here. But I also like the idea of Polokus being a shapeshifter, and his new design.spiraldoor wrote:I’m fine with the new Polokus design, but I wish they’d kept more of his basic recognisable features (his purple-and-yellow hat, his blue pants with the golden buckle, and the fact that his arms were much longer than his legs).

There is, actually. Search "English with Rayman" on YouTube.Luckster wrote:Kinda wish I could find so much as a "Let's Play" for the game featuring The Magician's cousin. I wanna know more about Andy! Even if it's just a sliver of information.

Re: Favorite character?
I dunno... I kinda like his new design more, but it would be better if he had the hat.
Re: Favorite character?
What's better about the new design?

Re: Favorite character?
This is a change I approve of. I didn't much like Polokus's design anyway.Greenbottle3 wrote:Well for one thing he doesn't have man-boobs anymore.Psychlops wrote:What's better about the new design?
Re: Favorite character?
Agreed. His original design didn't really appeal to me in the beginning. Fat little man with uncanny long arms, was my first thought.RayFan9876 wrote:This is a change I approve of.

Many apologies, Almighty new naked Polokus!

Bazzap.
I've never seen that picture before, but it certainly looks a lot better than the Polokus we've received.

Re: Favorite character?
It looks almost exactly the same to me. The drawing isn’t hampered by hardware shortcomings, and the pattern on the hat is different, that’s all.

Re: Favorite character?
And his mouth is shaped very differently, though I'm not sure if that's because this is a cartoon. I think the detailed feet make the model look a hundred times more pleasant to look at, though I'm not just comparing hi-poly to lo-poly, but the concept of the design.spiraldoor wrote:It looks almost exactly the same to me.

Re: Favorite character?
I really like the teensie ninja in R.O. For some reason i prefer gliding over rayman's helicopter ability, though i guess they are kind of the same.

It is one of his defining traits, much like his limblessness.Psychlops wrote:Huh. I like the helicopter.Evil-Thingamajig wrote:I really like the teensie ninja in R.O. For some reason i prefer gliding over rayman's helicopter ability, though i guess they are kind of the same.
