You’re right it is ridiculous that you give them that much credit. I would say there is a 3% chance they would make a new Rayman game. Hey at least it’s better than BG&E, which I think has a -14% chance of getting a new game, including a remake. But then again I’m kind of glad ubi didn’t make a remake of it. :oops2:

Google Stadia was a gaming streaming thingy by Google. :D I never used it personally, but it had a fanbase.

It had some interesting games, such as Cyberpunk 2077, RDR 2, Sekiro, Far Cry... It was a good idea, I guess, but lots of people experienced technical problems when playing the games.

Why couldn’t they just improve it rather than shut down?

It's simple. As games are becoming more expensive, it's really hard to offer a game streaming service at a cheaper price. There's no way they could turn it a profit at this point.

More like games are becoming cheaper tbh. Most games cost nothing compared to what controllable pixels on a screen did 40 years ago

I mean, the development costs, that's why Stadia couldn't provide a cheaper service and take some profit of it (in fact, it's being said they're planning to make videogames more expensive for the people because of this). And yeah, owning a console 40 years ago wasn't as usual as it is nowadays, not everyone could afford its cost.

Watched the series. I'm still collecting my thoughts about it. I wonder if we will eventually create a page for it on the wiki (as well as individual pages for each episode).

How was Rayman's character handled? I haven't watched it myself yet. :)

I’m not that big on far cry, nor anime, but I’m curious on Rayman’s role in this

Well, here are some things I have to say about the series (spoilers ahead :!:):

- I liked that some of the transitions and scenes look like gameplay footage, it makes me want to play something that looks like that. The scene of Jade trying to seduce a guard turning into a dating sim was very creative.
- Rayman using his errant hand as a surprise attack and then saying "that's a very naughty hand" was a nice touch, I wonder if the people behind the series had the events in R3 in mind.
- As a villain, I think Pagan Min was very entertaining, so it was a bummer when he was terminated in episode 2.
- Regardless of the story itself, I am thankful of the amount of screentime that Rayman got and the different sequences that feature him or his brand (one of them literally looks like Rayman in Crayon Shin-chan style).
- At the end Rayman was not the evil mastermind that some expected, but an useful pawn that was oblivious to what was really happening in Eden. I kind of wanted to see him confronting his evil self, but I guess it makes more sense for him to go after the people that were pulling the strings.


There are probably many other details that I didn’t notice because I’m not very familiar with other IPs like Splinter Cell or BGE, so I wonder what other people have to say about them.
