Oh shiiii, I wonder if Rayman will become a nintendo property, sure as hell seems like they've been inching further and further in that direction.
Rayman has pretty much been dead to me after Rayman 3. Wish I could buy 2 and 3 on steam :(
If it helps, Rayman 2 and 3 are available on GOG. But I get not wanting to split your library.
I have mixed feelings about GOG in general.
I might be late to the party, but what's wrong with GOG?
Nasty habit of taking credit for patches like the system shock anonymous patch. https://forum.quartertothree.com/t/why-well-never-get-a-nolf-revamp/76491/7 This isn't that surprising when you realize they also either get cracked versions and resell them or do it themselves at publisher behest. https://www.gog.com/forum/general_archive/gogcom_stills_sell_cracked_version_of_games/page1
It's weird that GOG would try to upsell themselves as having tech ninja's or being capable of doing this. At that point you are buying a torrent version of a game wrapped in a GOG installer that installs the patches. The people that made this technically possible are not credited and very likely if they can't get the source code and are forced to crack it the original studio doesn't exist anymore and you are just rewarding GOG and whoever the IP rights holder is. I dunno just rubs me the wrong way. Others might not mind paying for a "legal" version of the game. But it's just a put off for me especially the patch stuff.
All that being said I might cave and buy the rayman 2 and 3 and hope I can get them to work under linux with minimal fiddling.
Fair enough.
