Rayman Legends

[Master]

I think I've already spoken out against the annual/biennial idea in regards to Rayman, but to each their own.

@OCG Actually, the multiplatform release barely contributed for the sales increase:

Oh, I see. Didn't know this article before.
Well, maybe Next-Gen releases boost sales more.

My ideal Rayman release schedule would be to have two separate teams. Have one team with a bigger budget work on 3D games that have more story and open ended worlds to them, and have the smaller team continue with 2D games that expand on the stuff Origins and Legends do without bothering too much with story elements and focusing on competitive and co-operative ways to play, and all around crazy, comical humour. Effectively splitting the franchise into two branches, much like Classic Mega Man and Mega Man X, or like how Sonic recently got the Sonic Boom branch.

That way, we could get some kind of Rayman game every year or two, but each game would be different to the last, because if we get a 2D game, the next is a 3D one, and so on and so forth.

That'd be in an ideal world though. I don't think Ubisoft will be willing to adopt such a plan anytime soon.

I have Rayman legends on my pc !
It is excellent !

[OCG]

I would like to inform all of you that there are very good deals on Steam for Ubisoft titles including RL. Check it out

[Haruka]

Yep, I saw it. Rayman Legends can be bought for approximately 13€ at the moment.

[OCG]

Definitely worth the price. Hopefully it will increase sales.

I think I've already spoken out against the annual/bi-annual idea in regards to Rayman, but to each their own.

'Bi-annual' actually means twice per-year; the word thou seeketh be 'biennial'.

[Master]

Thou hath my thanks, Ad. I'll get that rectified.

Yep, I saw it. Rayman Legends can be bought for approximately 13€ at the moment.

Wow it is not expensive !

[Hunchman801]

Though virtually everyone here has it already. Maybe tell your friends!

My thoughts on Rayman Legends:
-Most original ideas for worlds I've seen in a while
-I've love playing as Barbara, she is such have for playing like everyone else
-MUSIC LEVELS!!
-Non- linear
-They had origins added in for people who didn't have it before(that was nice)

cons:
-intro could've been better
-I need to be online for the challenges.
-Barbara could've used a proper introduction
-Final boss, While awesome, is a bit easy

I forgot to mention I also liked the little personalities some enemies, like the skeletons playing with instruments, the toads being savage and tactical(maybe it's just me) and the minotaur who like to have their evil lairs all clean and tidy.

[Master]

Meh, I think while there's a little bit more variety in the attacks of enemies in this instalment in comparison to Origins, they could really make them feel like actual impedances and not mere hurdles.

[Haruka]

At least we already know that scene was made through Autodesk's 3D software.

I'm currently in the Desert of Digeridoos in Rayman Legends. I was tired of waiting to get the next Jibberish Jungle level because I kept on getting levels for the worlds I didn't even want to go to at that point, so I just moved onto the next world to get some lucky tickets in hope that I might unlock another Jibberish Jungle level. But, uh, yeah. I'm on the third level of the Desert of Digeridoos.

Levels for Back to origins are actually unlocked in a specific order, so you'll eventually get all the levels.
