Rayman's age

Feanaro Surion · Apr 27, 2007

That sounds about right. 2 years after rayman 3, roughly.

Beebop · May 2, 2007

Rayman is 18, end of story.

Feanaro Surion · May 2, 2007

you just said he was 20 in raving rabbids, and I just agreed with you.

Beebop · May 4, 2007

Did I?, Oh well, god knows what age he is.

Feanaro Surion · May 4, 2007

God, and probably Michel Ancel.

Blok2004 · May 19, 2007

I don't think Raymans age effects the games

Jman · May 19, 2007

Yeah, Sonic's age doesn't affect his games.

Blok2004 · May 20, 2007

Technically Rayman is 12 as the first Rayman game was released in 1995

Feanaro Surion · May 20, 2007

That's a valid point.

Well, unless anybody else has speculation as to Rayman's age, there really isn't much point for this topic any more.

So he would have just born when Rayman 1 started...

2007 - 12 = 1995 (Origin) - 1995 (First Rayman Game) = 0.

Rayman's original origin says he was young boy named Jimmy brought into a world called Hereitscool as Rayman to fight the evil. And directly after the first version, the Atari Jaguar version, they ditched it for the story of some mysterious, enigmatic guy with floating body pieces.

Jman · May 23, 2007

Yeah. I don't like the Jimmy factor in the game.

Feanaro Surion · May 23, 2007

Never even heard of the Jimmy thing. It sounds really weird.

Blok2004 · May 23, 2007

It is i like the latter i think

foultzboyz · May 23, 2007

Ancel didn't like it either, which is the side I'm on--Rayman doesn't need a stated origin.

Blok2004 · May 23, 2007

no i agree the magic would be lost

Feanaro Surion · May 23, 2007

I mean, a backstory is fine, but only if they're set in stone, or in a prequel. We don't have either of those, probably because the mystery is more appealing.

Blok2004 · May 23, 2007

Well the backstorys lame

Feanaro Surion · May 23, 2007

The current one is. And it's not set in stone.
