Rayman Pirate-Community

Because Begoniax has small eyes.

So I was listening to the Credits music on Raytunes and I was wondering what is the instrument that's added in that isn't in the Hoodo Soourcer theme? It sounds diffrent.

Self-deprecating humour.

The synths are made a bit 'fatter' - this is a technical term for altering the way the synths sound - but there is also a little nylon guitar in there. Very nice variation, indeed.

Sort of. The Hoodoo Theme normally has a tremolo and reverb, and what sounds like a filter of some kind on the synth. I believe the credits theme is the original, and basically a much rawer synth.

By the way, I noticed that in the Hoodlum Headquarters "Toots" said at one point something like "Aerial forces report that the Leptys is in view" or something like that. I was wondering what this actually means - did the Hoodlums pre-check the tower with their Armaguiddons or something? I mean, they couldn't be transporting Andre into the tower, as he was in the HQ the whole time. Or could the aerial forces mean the whole HQ (if the gigantic pulsing machine was a ship)? And if it was so, wouldn't it mean that the whole Summit Beyond the Clouds is moving towards the tower? Please tell me what this line means!

As far as I can tell, the announcement is "Air traffic control reports that the Leptys is now in view". A later announcement is "Air traffic control reports that the Leptys is about to land on the tower side".

I think these are meant to imply that the Tower of the Leptys can actually fly, and Reflux piloted it from the Desert of the Knaaren to Hoodlum Headquarters.

What? I'm pretty sure "the Leptys" in this context refers to the glowing mass of clouds, earth and gigantic Lovecraftean flowers that descends on the tower when Reflux invokes it. No one ever refers to the tower itself as "the Leptys", and there's absolutely no indication that it is capable of flight.

I was about to say what Spiral said above. It wouldn't make sense being the Tower itself, I'm pretty sure it is a normal location that doesn't move. Remember the magical events happening in the sky because of Reflux, I'm pretty sure it is "Leptys" himself that is refered.

Agree.

Agree.

Why do I make a comment in order to say I agree? Useless, I'm a idiot.

Nothing wrong with agreeing with people, but it's better to say why in your own words, or at least something more than "agree."

Backing on topic, I found the link between TBOM and TLOTLD very strange : how can the mirror at the end of the last cutscene of TBOM lead to the Land? Did Rayman and Globox ask Begoniax if she could help them? Hardly possible because she doesn't seem to want to let Razoff leave her.

What do you think about dis?

Maybe it was just a strange coincidence. I think that Ubisoft made it to keep the story going on. But I don't know why would Razoff have a mirror that leads to the Land.

About the Leptys thing, I still wonder why Andre was in the HQ. Wasn't he hurrying into the Tower? Why would he stop in the HQ?

Plot convenience? Maybe that mirror had something to do with how Globox ended up in the Bog instead of The LotLD.

To make things more simple: I think it is a simple magical mirror that can bring you to several places. Razoff could have one to go hunting in different places.

Poor Teensies...The Land must be in trouble sometimes

Razoff is a collector, right? Bounty hunter, prize shooter, revered marksman? It could easily be a prize, trophy or spoils he collected from one of his 'expeditions'.

That is also plausible. Why refusing a magical mirror as a prize?

A lot of things like that remain unexplained. Personally I still wonder why Andre didn't just fly away at the end of the game rather then letting Rayman use his grimace?

He was panting when he emerged from Reflux's shattered remains, perhaps the events of the battle took a heavy toll on him.
