Rayman Legends

and forget stupid skins but put instead CHARACTERS, like Clark and Uglette.

Do you have any idea how much work it would take to include significantly different playable characters? It's not worth it.

Exactly, the concept, the characters, the backgrounds, the script and the game itself must be complete at this point. They probably delayed it to fix some gameplay issues, like the AI Rayman as they told before. They want to "improve the experience" not to "Add a last minute element quickly just to appeal the fanbase".

Perhaps, like a few other people noted, Barbara could have sisters. If so, all of the worlds could be connected then lead to this plot premise that I thought of:
Many years ago, in The Glade of Dreams, lived a brilliant artist that had a special gift, and a curse as well. What ever he painted came to life in exsistence without his control. He tried to quit painting all together, but something in him kept to telling him to keep on. One day he painted 5 portraits, each one showing a different world from a different era. when he had finished, he left his tent to get some food and his five young and curious daughters were playing in the woods that day and came across the tent. For their father had kept the tent as well as his gift a secret from them to protect them. Out of curiosity, they went inside the tent and were awed by the marvelous worlds they saw coming out of the paintings. Then something went wrong, all was not right in the worlds their father had created, the balance was shifting, things were going insane, they were scared and didn't know what to do. Their father had then came back into the tent seeing that his creations had gone horribly awry. Then his daughters were being forced into the worlds and the paintings started to close in. Soon the paintings had shut, leaving his children sucked into the canvases. He was going to destroy the paintings, but soon realized any hope of someday retrieving his children would be destroyed if he went on with it.
All happiness in his life was gone now, thanks to his doing, thus he went into hiding to make sure no one else suffered the same fate as his beloved daughters. Present Day, Rayman and his best of pals were journeying in the forests of the Glade and bumped into an old, weathered tent, and out of their own naiveness, they went inside. They came across a series of captavating paintings each one telling the story of a different world. For these were the paintings the artist had made many years ago, they have lain dormat for some time. They focus their attention on a midevil painting and are suddenly sucked in. They discover each painting has its own series of problems, and that the creator's daughters are trapped in every painting, thus they decide to set things right in the worlds, rescue Barbara and her sisters, and get back to the Glade. In the Glade of Dreams, The Magician rises up from the rubble that was once a powerful air fortress, and plots his revenge on Rayman and the Glade. He hikes to the mountains to find a place of work and finds the artist's humble abode were the troubled man has been secluded for over a century. He takes in the mischievous Magician, not knowing of his previous doings. The artist tells him of his past, The Magician then claims he knows a way to retrieve his daughters from the paintings, but it will require magic and the artist's gift. The now enthusiastic artist agrees with the Magician's terms and they carry out his plan. What The Magician really plots to do is to use the artist's ablility to trap the Glade of Dreams in a canvas and let the worlds in the paintings run rampant so he can rule the land, and get rid of Bubble Dreamer once and for all. Finally after journeying through all the paintings, Rayman and his new band of heroes find out that something has gone wrong in the Glade. And thus, they must infiltrate and stop the Magician's plot. Afterwards foiling the Magician's plan, the Magician, in a last resort steals the artists brush and some magic. Without knowing the power of these two, the Magician accidentally destroys himself by playing with two forces that weren't supposed to be mixed. The artist is then reunited with his children, he deems that his skill could fall into the wrong hands again if he stays in the Glade any longer, thus he and his daughters jump into the painting he created for the Magician and then live in peace. All is right in the Glade of Dreams now, thanks to Rayman and his pals, now they go back to their regular activities and await the next adventure.

I HOPE YOU'RE READING THIS UBISOFT!!!

Sounds a little too much like Epic Mickey, Rayfanboy.

I HOPE YOUR READING THIS UBISOFT!!!

Too long; didn't read. You need to work on your formatting and concision.

[Disionity]

With a little more etching though, it could be decent. I never got to play through all of Epic Mickey, so, I apologize if there's any plot similarities between the two.

[sergiomonty]

Sounds a little too much like Epic Mickey, Rayfanboy.

Not at all. Sure, it involves an artist and a mischievous guy who enters the world created by that artist, but that's all. However, the original story involves paintings, and somehow and artist should be involved in the plot, somehow...

In my opinion, the plot given by Rayfanboy is really strong... it kept me intrigued. I would love the story to be like that, however, I'm pretty sure the story will be goofy and crazy as usual...

[Adsolution]

I have this inept dislike for FanFictiony speculation in an official thread.

[Minor-T5]

That wouldn't be a bad idea for the story. I'm not joking.

Yeah, I know, but come on... at least he was really creative and there's not much to talk about....

[stan423321]

Anyway - what's the possibility of them including Teensy(ie) Magician again in the story? Wouldn't be that a little too obvious? I really do not want him to be just used again as the main villain. Say, Teensy Shaman, Teensy Philosopher or Teensy Ninja Leader - obviously the same character from our viewpoint, but not from viewpoint of characters - in vain of Bank-Johannsen from Olsens's Gang - would be quite nice, but normal repetition is scary.

EDIT: Typos.

Whoops. I always thought 'inept' meant the opposite of what it actually means.

A video and a screenshot confirm that the magician will return...

[Master]

I personally want Mr. Dark to make his dramatic reappearance already.

[Disionity]

I thought the Magician should get revenge and then never be seen again this time, because as a villain, they didn't really do the Magician justice in Rayman Origins. There really wasn't any central villian in the plot, there was the Livid Dead that sent Darktoons to invade the land, then POOF! The Magician has gone bad. Observant people probally suspected it anyhow. Also, Thank You for the positive feedback Sergiomonty. I'm still awaiting Mr. Dark's return though.

He's dead.

He's dead.

If Mr Dark was still alive, he would personally break the Magician's nose for his loose impersonation, and of course, wouldn't let his own creation, Dark Ray, join Rayman's team in any possible way. Sure he escaped in Rayman 1, but he actually died in the GBC version, which happens to be some sort of sequel.

[Shrooblord]

I like the idea, but I do wonder whether a plot in a game made by the same people as Origins would ever get that deep. I know it's a bit of a misjudgement to call that option immediately, but there's my thoughts.

I wonder if we'll get to see that redesigned Mr. Dark character that was hinted at in The Reveal.

[saerleiya]

Loooooong plot, then :

Why would you not create a topic about this? Sometimes the thread may comes out of its subject, but when I saw the way you introduced your FanFic, I only thought it was very inappropriate to put this kind of comment in this kind of topic.

I have good comments for you, but I won't leave them in this topic.
