Rayman Origins

[CheatCat]

My favourite ent-like form. I'm hyped as hell, unfortunately I won't be able to watch E3 live.

That form of Bubbledreamer pwns everything! B) Seriously it is epic!

But if Rayman don't know who Polokus is in Rayman 2, does that mean that Rayman only know about Bubbledreamer? How will we know if Bubble and Polokus is the same if Rayman don't meet Polokus before Rayman 2?

[Haruka]

An interview revealed Polokus and Bubble Dreamer being the same individual.

I believe that this detail was created in order to explain why Rayman doesn't know Polokus before Rayman 2: different name and different forms.

[Droolie]

The question is, does Rayman even know about Bubble Dreamer in this game? Because if not, that'd explain a lot.

I could be wrong, but I have a feeling the zoomed-out view is showing the images at their original resolution. Zooming in just results in a softer image and the slider on the right reads upwards of 100% the further in you zoom.

I think it depends on the size of the image, actually. For some images you have to zoom in further to get a softer image. For most images, I think full size is about 200% zoomed in.

I understand why they chose to give him a different name and form, but why the bubble theme? It doesn't bother me or anything, I just think it's weird. Maybe they thought something like Great Dreamer or Mighty Dreamer would be too generic? Hell, it might even be something gameplay related.

[Haruka]

I prefer to wait for the game's release to have some of my questions answered. E3 isn't very far too.

Hi there! I'm Rayman fan since 6 years old I'm NotaKuroi, and I'm from Russia
Very waiting Rayman Origins. But i dont know exactly - will RO release on PC?? E3 2011 list says yes, but no official PC version announce yet. You, european fans, have more info, then russian
I want buy PS3, but I not sure that i can do it
Sorry, my English not so good =/

[DesLife]

Welcome NotaKuroi, you can introduce yourself here ! Matyuv and Julia_Patti are Russian too.

[NotaKuroi]

Thanks, DesLife!
So, there nobody knows about RO on PC?

[rayguy]

There hasn't been any official announcement regarding the PC version of RO (since the "PC to be considered" that was published some months ago). We assume Ubi will announce the platfroms on E3, but it's not that far now :]

You said that you saw on E3 2011 list that RO will be on PC, can you post a link to that list?

I don't know where they took this info

[rayguy]

I think it's just a speculation that's all. IGN decided RO will get a PC release back on last year's E3, when the game was just announced

I can definitely see more detail when I zoom in, but the images grow soft and jpeggish after a while. It’s impossible to determine their true resolution.

I understand why they chose to give him a different name and form, but why the bubble theme? It doesn't bother me or anything, I just think it's weird. Maybe they thought something like Great Dreamer or Mighty Dreamer would be too generic? Hell, it might even be something gameplay related.

It’s just a motif to make Polokus a more memorable and recognisable character throughout all his forms. I wish he had a bubble-pipe in Rayman 2 as well.

[Rulez]

Goodnight guys.

[Haruka]

Ahaha, nice.

Maybe he lost that habit in the moment he went into deep sleep, or he doesn't smoke in his true form.

[Droolie]

I think it will release on PC. It would be stupid if they decided not to, since Rayman has always been for PC, and Michel Ancel showed this running on his PC.

Sounds very plausible. I don't think anyone smokes while sleeping.

I've pointed the same point of view before. Really, it would be unexplainable, a lost bet and a sillyness if they don't release for the PC. I want to run the game in my desktop PC.

[Hunchman801]

What about the world of food populated with red lizards? I'm quite curious about it!

[Haruka]

I find interesting in how they based it up in the Mexicans' Day of the Dead.

[spiraldoor]

The food world is very much in the tradition of R1’s more surreal locations and the fantastical environments conceptualised for R4. Candy Château-ish.

[Hunchman801]

We know that both the Dream Forest (only referred to as the jungle so far) an Band Land will appear in Origins, but are there any other worlds from the original game you'd like to see? Or maybe levels from Rayman 2 and 3?
