What's the deal with Rayman Origins?

- A comparative video essay of sorts.
With a title like Origins, you'd except Rayman Origins to explore Rayman's Origins, yet the game we got in 2011 was seemingly quite different from what the E3 2010 trailer alluded to.
Where did the lore go? What are Origins' connections to Rayman 1 - quite literally - the origin of Rayman? Join me on this journey half the length of a lunch break and perhaps we'll find out!

It was called Origins because it was *originally* going to tell his backstory. Though this was changed for whatever reason.
AYYYYYYY
And just like how there are no stakes, that's because those were at the start. The enemies already completely invaded the world, as to where the enemies in Rayman 1 were either out of place or wildlife that thought Rayman was a threat. Actually pretty similar to Rayman 2 where there are no stakes. The Heart of the world had already been destroyed.
Rayman 3 had all the stakes, because the world was threatened to be taken over, unlike in 2 where it had already happened.
It went from "This is Rayman's Origins" to "This is a return to Rayman's Gameplay Origins"

Wasn't Mr Dark supposed to be in the gamw?
The name was decided early in development: the original plan for the game was to have it be about Rayman’s origins.
However, they changed it halfway through, and since the marketing for the game already called it Rayman Origins, it stuck.
OOOOOOH now I get it welp*starts playing impressive music with a kazoo*
I'm impressed by the music you played with the kazoo.
it's almost like he never bothered to research the reasons before he filmed the video
So? It's still good
EwanTheGreat almost like this video didn’t even have to be made or something
It's called Rayman Origins because it is meant to be a total reboot for the franchise, as in starting off fresh... and Origin for a new series of games.
Yep, and then they made *one* more.
@@umyum3858 you talking about Legends?
Umyum your point?
Is the new series supposed to be made of thousands of mobile games?
Umyum did u play origins and legends, because they are two different games, coming from a guy who played both games
Eh... none of Rayman’s games have really plots which can be tied to the previous games. This total lack of canon lets the creators play with different aesthetics and tones, which keeps the series from getting stale
Reyman Legends is awesome.
@@alanze18 no U
Some are sequeled together tbh but true
Digicraftmon the Crystal Gem nah Steven universe is childish, more like regular show where it’s wacky and serious. I would love a game that has a serious and slightly wacky story like the last season of regular show.
Steven universe isn’t childish... TTG is childish

The sense of smell is weaker when you're on a plane, a great part of what many think is flavour is actually due to the smell, that's the deal, i don't care if it was a joke, it's easy to explain.
It tastes bad and it cost £3 for a pizza slice and a bit of fries not joking

"Why do you like Rayman?"
"For the plot obviously"
"With thighs that can crush the dreams of men everywhere!"
Well... He isn't wrong!
Agreed

At least the game is fun and entertaining.
Just imagine if Rayman still stuck in endless nightmare of Rabbid series.
The first RRR was tons better than origins and legends, IMO. It was the last true Rayman game, even though it was silly and a little pointless
(Vietnam flashbacks)
Some of those games are good. Mostly the first and rabbids go home
@@TabalugaDragon How are Origins and Legends not true Rayman games?
@@danielj8085 because they are terrible and have nothing to do with original games. Even RRR was more of a real Rayman game.
o.o ..... Nobody's going to mention that Rayman's origins in this game are completely different to the lore in Rayman 2?
In that game manual it was stated that he was a complete mystery to the world. Some fishermen found him and after defeating the bad guy of the first game people just, accepted him. Not even Polpkus knew where he came from.
I lost my Rayman 2 case long time ago but I like that story man. Thanks for sharing!
Yeah, but those are really old games...
So these new are canon while the old ones aren't.
well technically, its possible that only the nymphs knew about him. maybe they kept it on the down low because it's not totally allowed to just, you know, *fabricate a being?*
Really? I never knew that.
@@tnecniw isnt it usually the opposite in video games?
As a huge Rayman fan myself, you nailed my thoughts on the lack of story Origins had. Considering it was supposed to be a big comeback for Rayman, I do think it would've been good to include a stronger, clearer story like the games before it had.
Yeah, I get that video games don't a really deep, complex story, especially not when it's about a limbless rabbit thing and his blue frog best friend, but it would've been nice if there was something other than "Heroes annoy skeleton lady until she plunges the world into darkness."
That’s the new plot for what was going to be rayman one in a half but ended up being rayman four
Never played the original and it’s been years since I’ve played origins, but I do remember watching a beta video that mentioned that a story was cut out from the game. It makes me feel kind of sad because I loved the gameplay and art style but I hated the story, it just felt unfinished.
Don't waste your time by clicking on here Now you can play it on your phone.

It was, the game was going to have a lot of dialogue until it got scrapped.
Mostly from the magician guy
@Cube³ yeah +its the jaguar version of the game
Origins is kind of an artefact title, they were going to make it a prequel to all the other Rayman games but later decided that it's a sequel.
Original Character But then the name Origins makes no sense
It doesn't make a great deal of sense anymore, that's true.
@@originalcharacter2470 Origins can refer to going back to the 2D gameplay though
@@TerrorOfTalos but the last main storyline Rayman game (don't count Rabbids) was Rayman: Hoodlum's Revenge on GBA, which was a 2D sequel to Rayman 3... so they already returned to the 2D canonically... though it was more of a 2.5D...
@@nikomiller Ok then Origins refers to Rayman 1 since origins has a lot of references to that game.
*Comparing games 20 years apart* "Ehmagawd, they´re not the same!? I want the same!"
Cube³ Did you miss the part where I used quotation marks? It was a joke but to get it you’re required to understand context.
If this was supposed to be a joke, then sorry but it's anything but funny.
sucks you didnt watch the vid
the joke was that he was speaking from the point of view of someone who really does hold that opinion
thats bullshit and you know it
Oh my God. I used to do the same exact thing with game manuals when I was younger but by the time Origins came out I had stopped and I didn't even THINK to look for more lore details in the manual XD Love the video dude.
Car ride manual reading was the bomb! Glad you enjoyed the vid!
I mean like who dosnt read the manuals when they look intresting
100th like
Manuals aren't needed to play a game

You know, Storytelling doesn't make the game. It's mechanics, level design and variety do.
I mean look at Super Mario, Classic Sonic and Crash. They have simple stories yet most of their games are good. So why should Rayman be criticize for being simple. I mean he's just a guy with no limbs.
How can you make that serious with out ruining his reputation
I never made the argument that storytelling is what makes a game though.
Rayman Origins approaches story in a different way than previous Rayman games, and that's not a bad thing by any means, it's just not an approach that I'm a fan of myself. Origins is a great game, I just expected... more in regards to story. If a Mario game made itself out to be more of a storydriven experience pre-release and then released as anything less, I'd hold it to the same standard.
Allstarknight I see. What about games that do have a story but fails miserably. Like Sonic 06?
I mean, you said it yourself there: If it's a miserable failure, it's a miserable failure. The way I see it, a good story can be a supplement to an already good game, but it can't save a bad game.
Story and atmosphere goes a long way in immersing you in what you're playing, but I don't think it can distract you from a flawed game. Gameplay always comes first.
When replaying the games to record footage, I found myself having more fun with Origins, constantly thinking "just one more level".
Rayman 1 is often frustrating in regards to gameplay, but I *love* the world it's set in, as well as the gorgeous music and graphics that go along with it. And I think there is some real value in that, but it can't mask the fact that it's an unfairly difficult game.
Allstarknight i finally get it now. Thank you. I'm just kinda worried that you think Origins is a bad game. But thank you for clarifying everything.
A game like Origins whould never see any hatred
Hey, no problem. It's a fun topic to discuss!
THIGHS THAT CAN DESTROY THE DREAMS IF MEN EVERYWHERE. I know what I’m looking up tonight.
Rayman legends is really good tho
preach bro
You're right! it is! I think the only problem with it is that it's way too short. you can beat the whole game in like, 5 hours.
Really good game but it isnt rayman in most ways
@@StitchdTeeth also on pc, ps3, 360* (not counting handheld versions because they suck) and origins is one of the best 2D platformers right up there with DKCTF
But origins is the hardest rigth ?
I honestly prefer this artstyle over the one in Legends. It just reminds me more of Rayman 1 while still looking modern.
Rayman Origins has all of those characters introduced in 2 because it takes place after 2 and 3. The Origins in the title is just a byproduct of the scrapped idea of this game being a prequel to all games and Ubisoft heading back to their roots with Rayman.
I miss Ly and Clark though. o.o Was cool seeing a cat fairy on your journey and Clark would have fit right in with Origin's art style.
@katchungas sorry to say but its a sequel, quick google search shows that much, although it probably did retcon some stuff, its still a sequel
@@artincendi :(
I'm glad Rayman Legends just ditches any aspect of story altogether and is just endless fun, so there's no room for disappointment.
I love these games.
Here i come
Better than the rest of the them
The best of them
Tougher than RAYMAN
They call me RAYMAN
Im like RAYMAN
I dont chuckle...
Id rather flex my RAYMAN

What's the deal with this video. I mean it's not bad or anything I guess your points are valid. But what was the mission here, seems a bit all over the place. Feels like you're a lil hung up on the games title.
i get you man, this guy is criticizing these platforming masterpieces insanely heavily, this entire video is pointless and triggering. i mean its a fucking platforming game, who gives a shit about the fucking story, the fucking gameplay is what matters. that said, the story isn't even bad, it fits the rayman loose and relaxy theme and combined with everything else it truly makes the game tons of fun.
10:18
I think his point is why it is called Rayman Origins when it is not a prequel.
It's more focused on story rather than Gameplay.
I think it would have been cool if the story was that rayman was asleep and his dreams were being attacked by the bubble dreamer's nightmares, the origins part could be a section where the nightmares try to attack his memories
As a fan of three first Raymans I totally loved the Origins. I just finished it and I'm sad it was so short.
I like your sense of humour and video editing, just saw Your video about DX-Ball 2 which I 100% agree!
BTW what do You think about fact that Michel Ancel is going to start making Rayman 4 after finishing "Wild i Beyond Good & Evil 2"? Personally I'm hyped af :)
Happy you enjoyed the video (and seemingly the DX Ball 2 Narrative)!
Stoked about Rayman 4! I believe that if there's anyone at Ubisoft who knows how to make games, it's Ancel and his team at Montpellier. I can't get too excited about it until we get details, but I have faith in those french boys.
Saw that You have very few subscribers comparing to your videos quality. I'm happy to become one of them. :)
Looking forward for more of Your videos!
rayman origins is short?!
@@Allstarknight I think it's called Origins because it's Rayman's return to 2d gameplay. Which is a Miracle since 2d games usually niche at that time.
The main villain in Rayman Origins, simply called the "Magician", is a "NOT Mr.Dark". As in it is kinda explained once that he was a huge fan of Mr.Dark and wanted to be just like him, hence why he is dressed similar and why one of the papers in his stage says "Mr.Dark" with a heart symbol on it. But yet for some reason they cut out all of the dialogue that explained the Magician's backstory which is very stupid since all that did was made the whole misconception that Mr.Dark was meant to return was made pointless and having the Magician being the surprise villain seem out of nowhere.
It's been over a decade since Rayman Origins came out back in 2011... Wow
I think Origins was awesome ! :)
Elias Plattner it was,i played it and it was exciting.
but sadly ubisoft ruined rayman with his rabbids
The main music theme of the game is also in the trailer, but not in the game itself. Which is weird. The melody can be heard throughout the score, informs the key changes and so on, but the actual main theme is just left out so it all feels disconnected instead of it being the red thread. I thought that was weird.
I think they could have gone 2 ways with the story, they could have gone even more over the top than they did and have Rayman and Globox as goofy dudes who gets caught up in the middle of it, or they could have a pretty serious story with stakes, but they landed right in the middle with rayman and globox as your goofy dudes but they’re doing all this stuff that isn’t explained but still seems pretty important.
I thought we were moving because we made some old people mad, why are there these king guys I have to save and who’s this magician guy?
At 6:55 you're not kidding about them being recolours. Every single one of them has the exact same face when you free them. That's why I call them The Same Face Syndrome Sisterhood.

In rayman you don't begone thots
You carefully save them and take care of them.
Wait did you expected a joke?
1) the game changed a lot between announcement and release. It was supposed to be an episodic prequel and it became a complete reboot. Games tend to do that..
2) story isn't a big part of Rayman 1. I can make the point that Origins world is more threatening (like when the hotland guardian eats entire buildings and spit them at you)
3) to me Rayman was about the art. It's more of a playable cartoon than anything. It being a hard game is a bonus, but it's the beautiful world that captures my heart. Origins replicates that perfectly. It is a playable cartoon, and I love it...
strubbery g me too
Now, if we can play that game in 3D but keeping the artstyle...
inkling boy 4 that is quite impossible. The art style is 2D cartoon. Now art direction, that is a more appropriate term. Maybe cell shading?
Now it would be a sin to not mention Rayman Legends, that had quite great 3D models as some of the bosses...
strubbery g That's why I wish. I would love playing a game in 3D with this artstyle
Cube³ Rayman 1 had story, but not much of a story. It had as much story as Sonic 1, or your average Mario game...
...which isn't a criticism. Ever. If you don't want to tell a story, then don't. We don't care. Now if it tried to tell a story and failed (like Sonic 06) that would be a problem.
Moreover Rayman 1 is a playable cartoon as well. Older cartoon, sure, but still a cartoon. I mean you have to rescue tiny cute ElecTOONS that were captured after the villain, MS. DARK stole the great ProTOON. Any more clues? How about the two recurring enemies are AntiTOONS and an Elmer Fudd-esqe hunter that shoots bullets with a hammer inside, and that every second item in the world had googly eyes like it's a 90's Rare game?!?
Playable cartoon is a complement, not a criticism. In an industry that strives to boring realism it's nice to see games with imagination and art. Sure, it'd be cool if there was also a good story (Heck, I like NieR, a game which story is about the only complement you can give it. And music). Art is as much a valid reason to like (or hate) a game as story is.
Sure Origin promised an origin story for Rayman and Globox, but it also promised to be episodic as well. Many games change during development, and if they still deliver a good game then it's OK. In the end I was promised a glorious return of my favorite character in gaming and I got just that. I completed it multiple times because I like it. Not because I'm a dumb baby or because I forgot the original, which I also completed several times. I actually like Origins because I like Rayman 1, and Origins is so much like it...
I hope you and I'll get a Rayman game with a deep story. In the meantime let us have our fun with the Rayman game we actually have, OK?
You waaay overthink this stuff: In the best and most awesomely entertaining way. Great video!
2:47 RIP Rayman's butt
Tracy Mixon Theory: does Rayman have a BUTT!?
Does he need to poop? on another note, if he's perverted, does it mean that he has a dick?
Pepper Millers another mystery that needs to be solved.
I hate to break it to you, but Rayman may actually have an anus, and a large one at that. I saw it in Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc in Razoff's Mansion located in the Bog of Murk. The place had some shattered glass on the floor in some areas, and I adjusted the camera towards the glass to see Rayman's body from the bottom up, and it turns out that he has a large gray slot on the lower end of his torso. Not really sure whether that was an anus or just how his shirt is sealed around him. Possibly the latter, but a....peculiar find nonetheless.
It's been years since I've played it, but that's what I remember seeing, if I recall correctly.
@@peppermillers8361 he has a dick. Remember the rayman 3 advertisement
0:35 the funniest jumpscae ever (keep playing the video for it to work)
I think Rayman Origins is actually just an alternate cannon, where as Rayman's normal series is cannon, this one is more forward on giving him a newer interpretation of what he could have been rather than who he really is. That's my theory anyway.
There’s a wiki for all the characters in all the Rayman games and if you go to Edith Up’s page it describes her as, and I quote “Larger, more curvaceous, and bustier than her sisters”
fun fact, rayman origins was supposed to have a full story (the game itself was going to be episodic) - it would've been interesting to see.
I can imagine the manual smell...
punch wile running what is this madness back in my day we could only punch...and we had to unlock the punch and the run
3:21 why does Mr.Dark look so adorable?
0:34 me when somebody answers yes when I ask them "am I a joke to you?"
Actually, I the story was pretty much just as simple as the first one, it’s just the sense of impending destruction gone due to the difficulty, and the lack of speed. Rayman origins is VERY much a game with which to run through.
Also supposedly that teensie you faught at the end is actually supposed to be Mr. Dark.
(Also, love manuals, boktai, AND britilla the fairy’s luscious deadly thighs.)
Wow I came into this video ready to hate because I thought you were going to crap on Rayman Origins, a game I REALLY love and in my opinion not only perfectly captures the wacky, silly, and breathtakingly creative spirit of Rayman throughout the series, but also elevates the platforming gameplay from Rayman 1. I was really surprised that I got this well edited, HILARIOUS video on why Rayman Origins should have been more about Rayman's story and actual origins! This video is SUPER funny and presented with so many brilliant jokes and insights! I can't tell you how much I enjoyed it! I can tell you're a true fan of Rayman despite your mild disappointment with Origins. I really hope you cover Rayman again in the future. More funny and well done Rayman essays like this would be awesome!
Man, comments like this make my day. Thank you SO much for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed the video as much as you did!
As for future essays, I'm not sure about more Rayman-focused ones, but I'm definitely open to making more if I get any ideas. It's a great and interesting series.
Legends has it that he still has his eyes open for a new Rayman game.
Fantastic video, great balance between game research/analysis, humor, snappy editing and clear VO, very reminiscent of greats like GamingBrit and B-Mask.

4:25 *childhood ruined*
"its not a bad thing"... It IS a bad thing, i remember how interested and invested i was in the story of say 2 when i got it as a 10yo, what would a kid or adult be playing origins/revolution for? Just to play? Well, that's fine, but its gonna be left behind and forgotten, as it doesn't relay any story or feelings, doesn't make you think or imagine anything, just consume and forget production line stampware.
You've earned yourself a sub. Very humourous analysis and you have addressed what I was thinking in terms of the lore but I have never really said it out loud.
Sweet! Thank you so much!
👅👢👢
I also cannot begin to describe the joy that reading game manuals gave me as a kid, actually got me hyped to play the game.
6:48 hilarious
can someone help me I am stuck at 119 electoons in Rayman origins after that when I click backspace it doesn't goes back to map I also tired different buttons but failed is it a game bug?
Watching this in 2023 and knowing what happened is funny
But the rayman legends soundtrack is much better tbh
Legends took Origins and made it better on every aspect
I M P I’m inclined to agree. Rayman Legends is one of my favorite games of all time!!!
Legends soundtrack is better but not THAT much, both are fantastic games but I much prefer origins progression and challenge

I've played Rayman 3, Rayman origins, Rayman legends, (on an xbox and finished 3 and legends and almost with origins) and I played only like 43% of Rayman 2 on a Nintendo 3DS. And the 3DS froze up and I can't fix it. So I can't play 2 anymore. I've never played the first rayman. I still play rayman in 2018. Its my favorite game series
You have some serious potential to be a great CZcamsr! Please make more videos like this, you seem to have what it takes to another great entertainer.
Why does everyone complain about limited lives in rayman 1? There was a SAVE FEATURE where you could SAVE YOUR GAME and then LOAD it when you lost all your lives.
and sometimes...SOMETIMES the manual came in color. that felt so rare, but amazing. i screamed at all the colored pages and seeing the illustrations of everything IN COLOR.
anywho, beautiful story told. and a true one at at.....aaaaa someday. maybe...MAYBE
What a great video! Funny, interesting, well edited, and got across an issue I realised I didn't know I had with Rayman origins and Legends.
Michael Borrego Thank you so much for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed it! :)
The game was originally going to tell Rayman's Origins (as in how he was made and all that). This is why the trailer gives a snippet as to how Rayman came about. Though during development, they decided to discard this plot (no idea why). They decided to use the same title, as they thought "Origins" could refer to the gameplay returning to it's roots (or origins). This could also explain why it goes into so much detail about the story in the manual. It's clear that they didn't want any confusion, and put in the origin story anyways, even if it isn't present in-game. So Origins means both in some ways.
what a great video man, thanks so much for this, keep em coming!
Rayman origins is my favorite rayman. Awsome and deep music, an amazing and beautiful art style, and new costumes you can get.
Origins forgiving? REALLY?!
Because I spent 5 controllers on that game. Jump wrong in the tooth levels: Fucked. Caught up by the screen: Fucked. Missed a thing: Fucked.
Riding a snake like thing and be too slow: Fucked.
I love the graphics. But boy: When it comes to gameplay, it is very hard!
Land of the Livid Dead did my head in. Granted, I'm not a very good PS player as I don't play super often, but MAN. After 17 trillion attempts I'm like "SATAN MADE THIS LEVEL"
same, but i still love this game to death
Oh absolutely! Although I prefer Rayman 2 over this, this is still one of the best IMO.
Dude, try the original Rayman game if you're looking for a challenge. Origins is a cakewalk in comparison.
Rayman origins is obviously not that easy but yeah the first rayman game is pretty hard and like he said in the video you don't have infinite lives.
I see the og rayman as a dream and rayman origins as a lucid dream also cannonicly rayman's world is a dream
5:26 god that song still gives me chills
when it comes to lore this game was a bit of a mistake...
every other aspect of this game is amazing
This video comes across kinda snarky and condescending.
Like.. I get it. I already knew the title was referring to Rayman 1, 2 and 3. Its halfway through the video and I feel like you havent really made a point other than "some things are similar and some things are different"
I think that could be said of... almost any video game sequel.
I think it's called Origins not to just tie various new characters to the beginning but rather to try and well 'originate' a new beginning.
Basically bringing it back to the 2D roots as inspiration but still trying to make it stand out from previous titles.
And the game is as hard as you WANT it to be, or rather as hard as you are willing to go when reaching for 100%. They chose to make the base game easy to allow players to be encouraged to explore for more to do and then get challenged in the process.
Good design philosophy.
Awesome piece of content. Keep up the great work! :))
Well how did you like the sequel, Rayman Legends?
I liked Legends a whole lot more, not only because it pretty much contains most of Origins through the Return to Origins-levels, but also because I knew what kind of tone and gameplay to expect at that point.
I never expected Legends to be any more lore-heavy or less wacky than Origins, therefore I wasn't at all disappointed when we got what we got: A sequel that improved on the groundwork that was laid out in Origins. It had fewer ties to older games than Origins, and I feel like that allowed it to have more of a distinct identity. I also really liked the different, slightly more grounded atmosphere that comes to life through Legends' music and graphical overhaul.
Legends' story is still pretty unimpressive, but hey. Rad music levels.
Rayman Legends is my favourite rayman game and it was my first. Yes I've only been a Rayman fan for like 2-3 years.
Ehhh Rayman Legends just feels like it's trying so hard to not be Origins but fucks it up by being easier and having approximately 50% of the levels being levels from Origins which feels lot better to play with the refined Legends engine than the Legends levels.
Diego Medina How is that the case? Rayman controls practically the same in both games, and the game was advertised as a follow up to Origins. I honestly think Rayman Legends is the best game in the series so far, it improves on what Rayman Origins did in almost every way, plus I find that Rayman Legends has a greater sense of flow and mechanics.
"Bodacious nymphs of the glade" you got that right :)
I'll leave now.
In the Beta, the game was actually about Rayman's Origins. But they went a different direction before release.
I think it's called rayman origins because it's supposed
To be some sort of a reboot to
Rayman 1, in fact,some of the enemies in jibberish jungle are literally the same enemies from rayman 1, another thing to note is that in rayman origins, in the first level of each
World, you get a new power, just like in rayman 1
And the second world of origins is literally just band land
The villains name of this game is Ales Mansay a fan and follower of Mr. dark
good to know
thats such a fucking great story, ur a creature designed to occupy the psyche of a god dude and destroy his bad dreams, why wasnt this in the game wtf
because they wouldn't have time for GAME MACHANICS
I used to actually ENJOY the manuals for some reason. Happy i'm not alone.
The game's title still works because, rather than being a cohesive look at the origin of Rayman, it instead focuses on going back to Rayman's 2D roots, A.K.A., his *origins.*
Real fan of the video! I agreed with pretty much most of your opinions on it, and when I didn't, I understood where you were coming from. Though, I'm gonna admit, the clickbaity title kinda made me not want to watch it. But it was good. Glad I did.
Glad you enjoyed it, regardless of baityness!
its a reboot.
That's negotiable.
@@Allstarknight no it's not
Legends was my entire childhood. Maybe I’m seeing it though rose tinted goggles but that game is fucking golden
In my opinion Rayman: Origins and Legends are damn 10/10 masterpieces and I don't think you can change my mind about it
The ultimate "OMG who cares" I've ever had in my life
Who cares? Well people like me who wished they kept the plot, numbnut.

@@danielj8085 I at least prefer to understand what's going on. If you're not going to have a plot than why show me a seemingly random set of events that would require me to look up online a explanation to understand the context for any of it?
@@PipeGuy64Bit The answer is simple: The game isn't supposed to be taken seriously. The story doesn't change anything.
New super mario bros is the same thing lol
Don’t take the title literally, it’s rayman “origin(S)” it’s plural. meaning more then 1 origin, so it’s from rayman 1, 2 and 3. And the game would be a mediocre rehash if they didn’t add all the extra characters. I really don’t understand how you are confused in the slightest.
I've started playing Origins, and after the first two levels I'm not sure what the main conflict is. Rayman is on an adventure beating everyone up with his giant fist and chasing fairies that have big boobs because an old granny who lives underground got pissed off by Globox's loud snoring? Oh well.
Gameplay-wise, OG Rayman felt like the Mario games where you had to be very calculated and be careful where you move and jump. This game feels like Sonic the Hedgehog where for a lot of it you can just run and jump to the end.
Yeah I got the game on the wii today I have played through the first world and it’s so fun but I don’t understand the story at all lol
i'm 16 years old, i played both origins and legends when i was a kid, and just now discovered that rayman series been around much longer than i thought
They announced rayman 4
Fuck yes
MrKnight i just hope they dont have voice acting, it got annoying REALLY quickly in Rayman 3. I personaly hope they do what they did in Rayman 2.
The voice acting might be good.
BR&GWRTrainiac Productions its just,some of the voices felt very out of place for some of the characters in raymn 3, and murphy got EXTREMLY annoying in only 5 minutes, but hopefully they fix that in rayman 4.
But you have to admit, David Gasman was spot on as Rayman himself.
i enjoy asiago cheese
thats good
The Vita version included runes that you collected to show the origins of Rayman's helicopter hair. I think there was also a story about how Globox became blue. Just thought it was a neat little touch, although I'm not sure if it's canon or not.
Yeah, and if you got the HD remaster of Rayman 3 on PS3 or X-Box, it included a Rayman Origins artbook in the game and it showed off some characters', including Globox's origins in the form of a comic without dialogue.
I loved this game as a child I got so much nostalgia watching this video.
*A thingamajig*
Aaaaaand now hes on coke
If some how you are reading this comment. May I ask what editing software you use?
Adobe premiere doesn’t work for me and all I have is an emulated mobile phone video editor and whatever my capture software has by default.
You’re videos are well made and I wish to make something of that quality someday
Hi! Thanks for the nice comment :) I do use Premiere Pro to edit videos, but if that's not for you I can recommend DaVinci Resolve and Sony Vegas Pro as good alternatives.
@@Allstarknight where tf did you go
All I know is that there WAS a lot more story for the game, and that the title was originally meant to be like a connection for the first and second game apparently. Nobody brings up that once Polokus forgets these guys, they don't exist anymore either, and he's a man who can feel emotions and all so he's just as flawed as they are but they still have to follow a fat lazy frog who is a detriment to their very existence yet is vital to it as well. I'm not surprised that Rayman looks like he's had a fair share of buga suga.
