Rayman Pirate-Community

I doubt it was competitive need, and I think she did it just for fun.

I never said it was competetive needs. But Haruka already had a walkthrough of Rayman 1 from before, so I believe it was the intention to do better the second time. Enough about this, Haruka is probably the best player on Pirate Community, and we should move on to what this topic is all about.

Concurred, so, how's Legends going for ya?

To make things clear, I just remastered my walkthrough of R1 PS1 because I just wanted to aim for a video with better sound quality, video quality and gameplay quality. I didn't have any competition in mind.

Moving on, I also want to hear (better said, to read) your opinions about Legends.

Well, glad you want to hear my opinions about the games. However, I have just played through Origins. I haven't touched Legends yet, I will probably have some time to start sometime in the nearest days. As I mentioned earlier, I have high hopes for Legends. I really hope it can fill the parts that Origins misses, on the most part, and that the maps are good all over. Because with Origins I only enjoyed the first two worlds +the extra version of the first two worlds. Also the Mountain Levels, was quite good as well. The treasure levels wasn't too bad either. Well, I will just have to have some time to get an impression over Legends, and I will for sure bring you my thoughts and opinions on it. I just want to unlock Dark Rayman or Raymesis if you prefer that, first. After I have played a little bit of Legends, I can join in on the discussion about the future of Rayman as well.

Dark Rayman and Raymesis are not same, proven in Legends because real Dark Ray has different color and he can chase Raymesis actually on chase levels.
Raymesis was however nicknamed DarkRay in Origins by Bubble Dreamer because he resembles real Dark Ray. He also made fun of him there

It's funny. Rayman and DarkRay are completely identical, minus the different color scheme, yet Polokus still considers DarkRay hideous.

Maybe Polokus considers Rayman hideous too
I don't remember that he ever complimented Rayman. Plus, Rayman's wife did consider Rayman hideous after he stopped being bald.

I don't think that mosaic is canon.

Even if it's not canon, I just used it as an example that it is possible that other people consider Rayman to be hideous looking, since Polokus did say that to Raymesis who looks pretty much same as Rayman except different color. Still, I think both Rayman and Raymesis and even real Dark Ray are very cool looking characters.

As for mosaic, well even Rayman 1 showed Rayman's hair to be alive on the main menu screen so at least that aspect is canon even if full story from mosaic probably isn't

Why would you guys think the mozaik isnt cannon but that scrapped stuff from ''ales mansay is rayman 1 magician'' is cannon?

Hmm, this is more headcanon territory at this point, I don't actually refer to the Magician as Ales Mansay, even if that was the intention prior. As for the Mosaic, I tend to pass it off as one of the Teensie's wild theories that were mentioned in regards to the story of Globox being blue. Again, it's headcanon, but I try to use pre-existing means to pass it off.

The Rayman series doesn't really have a properly solid world, perhaps it might have at some point in the past, but that's not the case now. There's contradictions and continuity incompatibilities all over, all we really can do is take what we've gotten so far from the series, and interpret it in our own ways. And in a way, I guess maybe that's one of the interesting aspects of the series, the way we can all have differing perspectives, how it can differ over the years, and yet still have a good spirit behind it, and some familiar aspect.

My headcanon is that those mosaics are just Teensie theories/stories, like Master said.

Conclusion:
Even if Rayman's "wife" from mosaic is probably not real, it probably gives a hint that Teensies consider Rayman hideous or else they would not make story where a character made up by them thinks that about Rayman when he got hair.

That wouldn't surprise me knowing how sometimes Rayman is treated by the Teensies:

Though it's a straight out fact... DarkRay is hideous.

Funny how the Teensies regard Rayman as the hero he is yet they act like jackasses around him.

Or how Polokus is some mighty god, but he chooses to chill with his creations. That's rad to me.

Who said Gods can't enjoy?
His facial expression when he is ready to attack in first Origins cinematics is priceless too:

Around 1:40 in video

OK guys, note in your agendas: 9th June at 23:00h (GMT). The Ubisoft Press Conference was just confirmed for that day (PT link): http://bgamer.sapo.pt/index.php/noticia ... 9-de-junho

I'll be watching it!

I'll be watching it for sure as well. I just hope for new Rayman and possibly BG&E 2.
