One awesome thing about Revolution:

Instead of having Rayman stuck in the incredibly claustrophobic confines of the hub called the Hall of Doors, he gets to free-roam in not one, not two, but THREE free-roam hub levels! That's gotta count for something!

Yeah, I agree. I much preferred the idea of the Stone Circle. As well as making saving confusing, the Hall of Doors makes the game more restrictive. I can't say which game I prefer though.

While I was wondering what kind of hub I would like R4 to have, I came up with a concept I called the "Isle of Doors".

Imagine my shock when I found out that it already exists in the R2 DC version! :shock:

I'm psychic. Lol. :paranormal:

I loved it being free-roaming, but I thought the game would've been harder/lasted longer if there wasn't a stone circle...

It would suck if there was no Stone Circle and you had to walk ALL around the game...

What is the Isle of Doors? Is it much different from the Hall of Doors?

I dunno what the Isle of Doors is, I only know it exists because a guy playing R2 DC in a Youtube vid finished a level and "Isle of Doors" came up. :|

It looks more like a island with teleport holes that teleport you to a hole.

I think it is an island, I've seen a map of it on a website...I forget which one.

The Isle of Doors doesn't matter, it's definitely not canon...I think the Front is canon though, it gives you a lot of info about Rayman's world.

There's just one bizarre thing that bugs me when I play Revolution: At Globox's house, if you look over the cliff, you see that you're really high up on a mountain or something, and surrounded by a vast forest, with mountains in the distance. But when you go down the Globox's well, you find yourself on a beach! And if you look up, Globox's house, the mountains, forest, everything is totally different! Is it a magic well?

Isn't that what it's called? But yeah, it has to be a magic well.

The magic well is where you go to give lums to teensies and they give you powers.

The Globox well is totally different; you use it as an elevator.

So is the Globox well enchanted, is what I meant to say?

Very true, and something I never considered. The views from the Globoxes' Garden are just fantastic though.
