Well I ain't sure about that, how did we survive between 2003 and 2010 with no Rayman game being announced?

Three Rabbids games featuring him, some ports and stuff as well as the hope for a Rayman 4 played a big role in that. Not to mention that there's probably been plenty left to find and analyse years ago, while now that may start to dry out. We pretty much know everything there is to know, including huge things like 2D Nightmare even.

- I want to take a break from things today and relax but I don't really know how.

I think that RaymanPC would survive quite well. For how long I don't know, but I think it would for at least a strong four or five years if there were literally nothing. This is a baseless guess, however. Remember that, in addition to all of that, with every port or re-release, new people will be buying the games.

Hehe, if there were an end to the games, I guess I'd just have to work extra hard then on striving to make mine something, especially for the community to live on.

I'm going to take a somewhat educated guess and say that the Rayman discussions would survive three years without absolutely any Rayman games being released by Ubisoft or by the fans. After three years, I imagine the site would still technically be around, and people would post in the off topic sections, but nobody really talks about Rayman.

I'm basing my guess on the fact that darkSpyro's discussion on Classic and LoS games really died three years ago, a bit before Skylanders first came out. The site as a whole is still very active because it now doubles as a Skylanders website, and the people who originally joined for Classic Spyro/LoS still use the off topic sections even if they don't post in the Skylanders sections. There is also a fairly large Skype group, and many of the older members are part of tight knit "families". Plus, the site has had plenty of drama, from people being really close and finding their relationships becoming complicated, to hackers, to porn trolls, to a real situation where it became known that a user's life was in danger. So stuff like that kept a ruckus going. The Spyro sections rarely get posts though, except for maybe the fan fiction section, but even that is a lot less active than it used to be.

Though I wouldn't say we could predict such things with much accuracy. In the end, it's all down to how much people want to talk about Rayman.

The Rabbids don't seem to have brought us many users, though I guess it's better than nothing. But the hope for a Rayman 4 is just as valid as argument now as it was in 2003.

I find it peculiar how this drop in the forum's activity happened around the same time I started to 'switch phases'. If it had happened any sooner it would've probably driven me a little crazy.

+ Mum's going shopping and will probably buy good food and stuff.
- I spilled a drink on my carpet AGAIN and I feel like an idiot for it. :/

With the release of Origins/Legends I've given up on ever seeing another 3D Platformer coming out of Ubisoft. And if it did happen it would not be the game that I've been waiting for since 2003. :P

- Mother complaining because we're not a Utopian family. No, I'm not gonna tell what's on my mind, because she's been twat about the subject. I guess I would like more of a family sense, but I just feel like we're four completely different people that wouldn't ever stick together if they weren't family.
