Rayman Pirate-Community

I see where you're coming from. The thing is, most of those character descriptions were random jokes that added no value to the lore in my opinion, and often, they even added to the confusion. I mean, seriously, Shadow Ray?

Shadow Ray was them trolling us for sure My hopes for this kinda align with RayGamer's… I drew the princesses as separate characters enough times back in the day that it would still hurt if they were retconned into mere skins

Yep, they were either getting disgustingly lazy (which isn't out of the ordinary for Ubisoft, need I remind y'all ) or intentionally messing with us with Shadow Ray. If they wanted to make a black-and-white Rayperson who loved silent films, I would have preferred if they went with a grayscale design for him and gave him a noir detective outfit or something. If/when I get better at making art from my head, I might be able to make a redesign concept for the guy, but that's not quite in my repertoire at the moment.

I wonder if Raybox will be added in RLR since I've been imagining him being there in either his classic looks, the red sweater or his gothic looks for some reason. And now that I've checked the recommended requirements for the device, I now wonder if I'll ever get to play the game without lags (probably not), I really wanna know how it's gonna feel like. Not much hope, but I still have it. And yea, regarding the descriptions of the skins, Raybox's one is that kind of descriptions you get on April 1st, though it's one of the important parts for my AUs and headcanons, but I digress.

Indeed, but that wasn't even their intention. The only reason they came up with that story is because they needed to write something after shamelessly reusing the Dark Rayman sprites from Rayman Legends.
