Are the days of the 3D platforming genre long gone?

The genre was popular in the early 2000s era but now has since completely disappeared. Are we due to see a come back anytime soon?
>>
It's okay, Rayman 2 will get ported to every system until the end of eternity.
>>
We're approaching the days of PS2 being the new retro-nostalgia thing people like emulating.

Expect to see people who grew up with Rayman 2 and games like those and loved them to start making their spiritual successors.

I'd certainly enjoy an experience as comfy and adventurous as Rayman 2 again.

3D mario's still going, even if shitposters like to hate 3D World. Yooka-Laylee sounds great though worryingly little has been shown off from it. Ratchet & Clank remake also looks great if that counts.
>>
Ratchet and Clank & Yooka Laylie are both coming out this year.
Hat in time is still moving along

Kickstarter is the new home of the mascot platformer

I'm actually waiting for this
I just hope they won't be as awful as all those faux-retro pixel rougelikes
>>
Is Rayman 2 Revolution the definitive version? Are the loading times very bad?
>>
>>331875805
Is it like a hidden secret in the game kind of secret?
a "This game was made by child slaves and paid for with blood diamonds" kind of secret?
>>
>>331876116

It's a secret about me that relates strongly to that game.

bumping for this because I don't know if I should get the GOG version or the PS2 one

>>331876115
>>331878094

loadings are the same but the game has more levels and special powers, thats it
>>
>>331878094
PS2 it's the same game with more content. Plus it's the only version where you can get the 1000th yellow lum.
>>

not true, by the way

Maplestory 2 will be released soon.
>>
Fucking Ubisoft keeping us from getting more solid Rayman games in favor of their generic ass shooters.
I guess we should be thankful we even got Origins and Legends.
>>
>>331873173
I can't wait for this game to come to android. rayman 1 just came last week. this is a must
>>
>>331876115
>>331878094

Load times aren't too bad. The framerate is pretty fucky, though it doesn't matter too much since Rayman 2 is a very easy game.
There's also some minigames, hubs and an extra boss added. Though the hubs are kinda bland so I prefer the level select of the other versions.
You can't really go too wrong with either PC or PS2. Just avoid the PS1 version.
>>
can anyone remind me
are you allowed to return to previous levels in Rayman 2 PC?
>>
>>331879797
Yeah.

Dreamcast was obviously the best version.

The thing is, Indie developers dont make any 3D platformers and AAA devs sure as fuck wont try to bring them back.
99% of all Indie developers are too dumb to create anything but a 2D pixelart sidescrolling shit.
>>
>>331882270

long ago on /v/, there would be entire threads of nothing but that same picture being posted over and over and over until the thread hit limit or was deleted

I don't know why it originally started, if it was only one person who did it, but I did it a few times myself and I don't know why, just continuously drawing a new pixel somewhere and saving over the old pic and uploading it over and over for a long time doing nothing else, I feel like I was a kindred spirit of whoever started it
>>
>>331882780
>too dumb
Not exactly, they lack the time and/or money to do so. Indie devs and 2D games go hand-in-hand since it's cheaper and plausible for smaller teams (and solo devs) to attempt.
>>
>>331882419
it was p broken

That's the one I had. What's so bad about it?
>>
>>331883679
it's shortened by about a half
>>
>>331873173
Played the N64 version what are the differences?
>>
>>331883679
Has about half the content of every other version that came out around the same time.
It's garbage.
>>
>>331883841

Holy crap seriously?

And I loved it when I was a kid. Now I have to play the pc version

The Dreamcast version is definitive. Revolution has occassional frame dips, whereas the DC version runs at a solid 60fps.
