Pretty pleasant surprise if you're asking me (for those wondering the context).

SpongeBob being a skin for Rayman would be wild

SpongeBob being a Rayman skin is such a WILD mish mash of my childhood. Like I have heavy nostalgia for both series.

Hey gents.
Rayman 3>>>>>>Rayman 2

 

[Kazuma_kuwabara]

Hey gents.
Rayman 3>>>>>>Rayman 2

Rayman 2 has a better story, Rayman 3 has better gameplay, levels, characters (my opinion) and bosses

Rayman revolution-->

I would also say Rayman 2 has the better atmosphere, and Rayman 3 has the better music. I generally agree with these points though. I grew up with both Rayman Revolution and Rayman 3 so it is SO hard to choose a favorite personally lol.

I messed up, I wanted to say "Rayman redemption" the fangame of Rayman 1 that is Rayman 1 being fair

Atmosphere depends because I found 60% of Rayman 2 levels "the same", while Rayman 3 has more variety, it could be me

Yeah, I'll give you that maybe. Rayman 3 has more variety in atmosphere, from Land of the Livid Dead to Desert of the Knaaren to The Summit Beyond the Clouds, etc. Rayman 2 levels are generally pretty similar in atmosphere, though they fit the generally darker nature of the story.

 

[Tonygameman]

Huh, quite surprising from an account which hasn't posted for three years (more details on a subject).

They got Vince McClenny himself from Royal V back for a HD remake!? Goddamn.

I have no idea how they accomplished that, but wow that is cool.

[Tonygameman]

Stll so crazy to think about.

Y'know it always seemed like Rayman was pretty underrated in comparison to other platformer franchises (Sonic, Banjo-Kazooie, Crash, etc.). But it is cool to see how dedicated the fanbase is in these fan projects.

 

[TheFrostKnight]

Speaking of Rayman, I should probably finish up his Sparks of Hope profile.

I'm curious, what does that profile look like?

Doesn't it drive us all insane?

I need to add some scans, weaknesses, and the gallery, but here it is.

I think you accidentally linked the wrong page.

 

[Dark-Carioca]

I did find Frost's blog and CSAP Rayman profile, so I can imagine how it might look

Though the blog post is missing a lot of things xD (I'm guessing the proper profile is in a sandbox)

Here is the sandbox.

Yeah, I think the profile looks good.

Though looking at other Mario characters on vs battles wiki… why is base Mario only Island level? Looks like Rabbid Mario was changed too.

 

[Dark-Carioca]

They were downgraded recently iirc

 

[ZespeonGalaxy]

“Antifeats” Better hope your next verse doesnt have moments where they fall and also take no damage.

Embarassingly late but why are we counting anti-feats from the main Mario series when the Mario + Rabbids verse is a separate dimension?

I honestly didnt know M&R verse got affected. What the hell?

 

[TheFrostKnight]

And on that note, could we potentially put the M+R verse at 4-B via scaling to Rayman? Rayman references the events of Legends in the DLC, implying that the mainline games are canon to the series.

 

[Dark-Carioca]

What a weird position to be in, where Base Rayman scales higher than Base Mario xD

Beats me, this is a bizarre circumstance lol. If we want to scale M+R to 4-B Rayman feats though, that would probably require a CRT.

Honestly, I never thought I'd see the day.

I don't think we have enough proof the a CRT to be passed. The only evidence of Legends being canon to M+R is Rayman talking about his time in Castle Rock, a level that takes place right after the first boss (where you send one of the Teensies to space).

 

[Mantidil]

Huh, it looks like a Captain Laserhawk calc was made.

 

[Dark-Carioca]

It's gonna be pretty odd to see a profile for that show's Rayman

The wiki has a profile of the HBO version of Velma, so definitely have some similar instances on the wiki

 

[Dark-Carioca]

That might as well be a 'for the lulz' page... even this show featuring Rayman can't be THAT bad xD

Rayman is snorting cocaine in the show

 

[Tonygameman]

At least it's guaranteedly way better than that abomination above.

 

[Dark-Carioca]

Rayman is snorting cocaine in the show

Oh it's edgy and eyeroll-worthy for sure... but I think that's kind of the point? That's the vibe I get.

That Velma show just seems cringeworthily pretentious and so separate from the franchise (the fact that it was originally a separate and completely unrelated show doesn't help it either) it doesn't even have the same appeal as potentially seeing Rayman in such an oddd environment... and at least it's something new in a franchise that's been dormant for so long, while Velma... I mean the Scooby-Doo franchise has already been fairly experimental and consistently popular since the 60s, it didn't need the Velma show to exist.

Velma show is the only thing that is worse, THAN DRAGON BALL EVOLUTION

Also, I just said that Rayman is snorting cocaine, I did not even know you were talking (in plural) about the show being better than the Velma one or anything about that

Also, snorting cocaine is fun (?(

What did you think I was talking about, if we were talking about the Velma show and then I say "even this show featuring Rayman can't be THAT bad xD"?

Obviously I'm saying this Captain Laserhawk thingy isn't as bad lol
