every time i play this game it gets better and better. ubisoft really outdid themselves with this one. the game looks stunning and way better than any mario game of the era. platforming is top notch as well as each world and set piece. the only real thing keeping this from being perfect is murphy as i can kind of just take him or leave him but its a great time especially with friends. the music levels are also peak and worth the price of admission alone
Amo Rayman y objetivamente no es un mal juego para nada, pero no sé... Tengo sentimientos encontrados, puesto que su banda sonora y estilo artístico es precioso y lleno de carisma, pero no tengo buenos recuerdos de cuando lo jugué, me pareció olvidable y aburrido y tuve que obligarme a terminarlo...
No sé qué chuchas me paso, debí de amarlo, pero simplemente no siento nada por él y me duele ya que fue el último juego real de Rayman y lo que debió de ser una linda despedida, solo es una entrega meh para mí.

It was only fair to finally give my favorite game of all time a corresponding review, so here it goes LOL!
Many of this game's aspects are top notch in my opinion, especially for a 2D platformer about a funni limbless hero guy and his friends:
-> The OST is extremely solid, with each song captivating the theme of every level in such an epic way for the player.
-> The level design is really good, it constantly invigorates you to always be on the move, interacting with the surroundings to activate special gimmicks on a stage and looking out for items and secrets that require precision to get, but have a big payoff. It's never a dull moment, honestly.
-> The graphics and artstyle combine together in such a fantastic way here. Every world has its own colorful and vivid vibe to them, and they are filled with so many cool little details, I love it so much.
-> The game itself has a lot of content to it, with a huge amount of collectibles, many different costumes for every main character, online challenges and minigames, and a wide variety of levels, including the majority from Origins and the Murfy version of some levels from the Wii U release, it's really cool.
-> I feel like the music levels at the end of every world needed their own section in this review because GODDAMN these are fun, easily the most iconic part of the entire game. Most of them are licensed songs like "Eye of the Tiger" and "Black Betty", but rearranged exclusively for these levels. The tone of each song blends in perfectly with the timings of your actions, and it's all so damn fun and satisfying when done right.
This game seems to have it all... except lore.
Unlike its predecessor Origins, Legends doesn't actually have a story, you could say this game is essentially a level pack of all things. The intro may look like the building of a bigger event throughout the game, but it only covers the first world and that's it.
And it's weird to me, given the fact that the Rayman series has always had a deep lore behind it, especially with Rayman 2 and 3. Even (again) Origins, the game that was stated as a "reboot" to the main series, had a story to tell with the dark teensy threatening the heart of the world, the fairies getting trapped and every king on the land being transformed into beasts.
Then again, that didn't stop me from enjoying the hell out of this game. At its core, Rayman Legends is all about fun over any other aspect. Its frenetic and chaotic gameplay (even more with 3 other players) and inmersive levels make it all up for an outstanding experience, solid at worst. If you like 2D platformers, this here is a solid must buy.
