I mean I'll buy a new Rayman game if they release one that isn't a phone game, but I'm not paying a subscription for it.

Shit ever wonder why Captain Laserhawk seems to be a Furry Story taking place in a world more closely resembling Cyberpunk 2077 than Blood Dragon? Because Ubisoft doesn't have any IPs anyone cares about other than Rayman (which they do nothing with) and the three people who still think Beyond Good & Evil 2 will actually come out someday, or not be a repeat of DNF 2011 if it does....

That said don't mistake that for me talking shit about Captain Laserhawk, that show is fucking amazing.
