with the rise of Mario+Rabbids i think something is forgotten a lot is VERY early on with Rabbids 1, the rabbids were very different in terms of character
in that, they were sorta kind genuinely evil and demonic instead of “chaotic neutral fun lovers”
like look at some of the imagery here, it’s genuinely sorta creepy
like they had evil plans, they tortured rayman, kidnapped babies, seemed to have connections with these demons, and were presented as genuine threats
it’s interesting to me, i actually like both version of the rabbids but i think the early rabbids are interesting to talk about
