Of course it'll be a spin off like Mario and Luigi, Paper Mario and Sonic Chronicles are, but I don't really see why a Rayman RPG wouldn't work, if it was done to be like really good RPGs like Earthbound it'd be fantastic.

If things were done correctly, I also wouldn't mind to see a Rayman RPG.

Can't think of any Rayman game element that would translate well into such a completely different genre though, and if it would just do everything differently, it might as well not have anything to do with the franchise.

In my mind the series doesn't really need spin-offs (unless maybe if they try the Rayman M thing again and really put effort into it), and even if it's going to have more, an RPG would be a very odd direction to go in, even if some platformer series have went there before. There's probably no way Ancel would be included in its development anyway, and Ubisoft would likely let some other studio take care of it, which might result in a game that completely lacks the charm and creativity of the original series. Maybe they would even try to make it like some kind of Japanese series because of the mass market appeal.

The Rayman games have always been straightforward and enjoyable platformers, and I’d like it to stay that way.

I agree, I'm a Rayman fan because his game series are platformers essencially.

Essencially? Is that some British/American spelling I weren't aware of?

Here's something that recently ended up in my mind. Do you think run button/stick mash dash/whatever would make sense in future Rayman 3D platformers? I'm honestly not sure about it. It allows for great off-road object placement, but... on the other hand unless used "straight forward" literally (which I suppose we do not want), it end up very problematic to use effectively.

Origins is very momentum-based compared to previous games, so maybe if they'd make a 3D game the same way it would make sense to have a run button.

I was considering having a run button in ROTD, and I'm certain I'll add it in, as a power you receive.

I understand, but I'd rather them not modify the 3d formula to the extent they did the 2d.

I'm pretty sure that there will be 3rd 2D Rayman made with Ubiart before Rayman 3D. :)

Or maybe even just a 2D Rayman with 3D TV support. :shock:

3D is a pointless, nauseating gimmick.

Oh really? In that case, you should call Martin Scorsese, Guillermo del Toro, Peter Jackson and James Cameron, and inform them of this. When faced with your rock-solid logic, I’m sure they’ll immediately see the error of their ways, and vow to shoot all of their films in good old 2D from now on!

3D is often annoying (I especially dislike it on animated movies) but I think it's very really suitable for big action titles, namely the directors you listed, and of course, Marvel.

As long the CGI is cleverly used in a movie, I have no complains.

We're talking about stereoscopic 3D, not CGI. :P

I was asking for that, wasn't I?
In honesty though, that's what I think of 3D, some might enjoy it, but I just can't, it physically sickens me.
