Is Teensie Magician is the same person as Ray1 Magician?

Tarayzan! Love the leopard-skin...! How's it yodeling? Hey...pass me a magic seed and we'll bust out of this bird's nest! All out, huh? Nevermind. Play that funky music! yodelayheehooo!

Tarayzan! Ray's cuz from way back...whenever! Glad to see you didn't lose your leopard skin this time round.. Awk-ward...

This text is in a file on the Rayman Origins disc. That's literally all the evidence on the subject.

Now that I think about it, I really wish that all the Bubble Dreamer's super-specific references to the first part of the Swamps of Forgetfulness had been left in the final version of Origins. They make me feel happy on an unjustifiably deep level.

Ah, I thought so, thanks for reminding me, Spiral.
Is there a place where one can see the beta script in its entirety? I tried to use Droolie's method, but I lacked the patience and capability in getting to the script.

I think I posted the text somewhere. Wait a minute.

I still think of all the reappearing characters in terms of the R1 designs. The original game was a big part of my life for a while. Everything about it has taken root in my mind. Origins is just a fleeting thing. It can't unseat it. The original is so perfect and pure and self-contained. No attempt to retcon it will stick.

Totally true. Rayman 1 has got a special place inside my soul since it was the game I had my first contact with the franchise, and yet I still think that it is a game that survived well to the time passage, it is still as enjoyable as 13 years ago and it has got something so unique that it is a game I'll hardly stop to like. Rayman Origins failed to steal part of my soul, but people will have to agree that the atmosphere between a game and other are totally different. At the same time, I also lamentate that this didn't manage to the final version of RO:

Tarayzan! Love the leopard-skin...! How's it yodeling? Hey...pass me a magic seed and we'll bust out of this bird's nest! All out, huh? Nevermind. Play that funky music! yodelayheehooo!

This game deserved a much bigger approach to Rayman 1, I just don't get it.

I remember first RO trailer where there was a teensie photographer, and where Rayman anf Globox got more attacks and it was a prequel and where there were supposed to be 3 episodes. I really wish it stayed like that.

[spiraldoor]

Yeah, most of us wish a lot of things about this series.

I agree on this, expect for the episodes cause that's just awful.

It seemed like Origins was going to be much more loyal to the trilogy in terms of story but the final result was a bit confusing with a return of the Magician which would seem like a gift for long time fans, but his redesign is so far from how people know the character that it doesn't make much impact.

Is it just me or does Rayman look like Rayman 2 Rayman in Rayman 3 early screenshots?

I think it's Revolution model. Revolution and R3 do have a few things in common I believe.

[Master]

Was that meant for the rare images thread?
Yup, he did look more R2-esque, initially.

I think Rayman 2 and Rayman 3 have a lot in common in general, it seems that R3 uses the same engine as R2, but upgraded.

[GNineify]

Why was the whole original concept of Rayman Origins changed anyways? Explain, Ubisoft. EXPLAAAAAINNN.

[Master]

Since Shroobie's not here:


Yeah, I have to agree, what exactly compelled them to go for the non-story route, if they were planning for such a twist that hit close to home?

Back in 2003, I really did not like Rayman 3 model at all. Rayman 1 model will always be best for me.

[Master]

Hm, didn't you once make a drawing mocking the bulge-eye aesthetic of R1, GN? Or was it someone else?

[GNineify]

I was just about to put that again and then I see that message. Whoooo.

[TFDS]

Love it!

[Master]

Huh, I never noticed how much that Electoon looks like Ed from Tonic Trouble with that shape, was that intentional?

[GNineify]

Nah, it's just a magical shapeshifting Electoon or whatever.

[OCG]

It does
I hate how that game has issue working on Win 7 with NVIDIA drivers

I prefer his updated design. It fits and looks more modern.
