Yeah, so they’re only somewhat edgy
WPTheModder wrote: Fri Jan 17, 2025 3:20 pm I'd say most of the jokes are just "haha, funny sex joke" or "haha, globox is stupid!"
Yeah, I feel as if it’s a really low form of humour, because there’s nothing creative about them at all. You’re right about the bad checks thing. Might be the only time I’ve laughed at a video game in recent times (I mean, except from the fact that I literally was dying throughout the entire Deathspank trilogy)
WPTheModder wrote: Fri Jan 17, 2025 3:20 pm The main point is; they're good at the humor, but they try to throw in edgy sex jokes or Globox jokes that drag on for too long, and they're honestly SUPER unfunny and irritating to sit through.
I probably should’ve made this joke earlier, but if you’re gonna do edgy jokes, do them properly. At least make the game a little bit higher rated so you can swear and use dodgy insults (c’mon, it’s a year before twitter invented, nobody would really care that much about that kinda stuff, right? :wink:)

Death.. huh? What have you been playing? :shock:

I never laugh at anything to be honest, unless I'm with someone, then everything is automatically funny. But the thing is, even if I was with someone I wouldn't laugh at most of these jokes.

Sex jokes have always been the lowest and crudest form of comedy. Why do you think everyone hates hazbin boss or whatever the hell that one show is called :? Dumb jokes are also low, but sex will always be bottom of the barrel.

They managed to slip in a birthday suit joke and a special ed joke... I think they've done enough :oops2:. But it would be funny to hear Andre curse a couple of times at Rayman or Globox. I think any of them cursing (of course if done right) would be hilarious. :lol:

Well you also have to keep in mind the game is like 20 years old at this point and the 00s humor and edginess are kinda outdated :p

Basically, it’s a parody of the Diablo series made by none other than the legendary Ron Gilbert itself. The plot is based around these 6 mystical… thongs??? That give you various powers (which is another parody, this time on the Lord of The Rings), and he has to just go around killing a bunch of guys and getting into hilarious dialogues with characters. I’d really recommend it if you have a PS3 or Steam

I mean, for me, it kinda depends on if the sex joke is at the right time. I think the Low Taper Fade meme has kinda forced out the sex jokes when someone says “it’s massive!”

I mean, the special ed joke could be pretty funny, but birthday suit? Seriously? Are they like 5 or something?

I would’ve probably have found it funny if Andre tried forcing globox to slur, but I might just be weird for that :lol: :oops:

No comment, lmao :oops2:

Is it paid? I'll probably check it out if not (I'm broke)

Yeah, that's true. It COULD be funny but like 80% of the time it's not :hap:

It was funny, to be honest. The birthday suit setup was pretty freaking hilarious, though.

...Presicely. I know the humor is from the early 2000's, it's just unfunny. I see unfunny, I say unfunny :bad:

I’d imagine it’d go for precisely $15 in the states

Exactly! People act like every single breathing human being’s sense of humour has shifted completely in the last 15-20 odd years, when they gotta realise that the jokes they laughed at as kids aren’t gonna be funny for them as adults

Globox was funnier than Murphy for me, can we agree on that at least :)

RAYMAN 3 EXPOSED! Don't give this game to your children!!!!! Globox says a really naughty word! :nono:

I'm actually quite young, so I haven't felt much of this yet (keyword... much. I've definitely cringed at some of the things I used to say before) but I've seen this happen so many times with adults who rewatched stuff they thought was funny as a kid and absolutely despised it :lol:
Rsandee wrote: Fri Jan 17, 2025 6:52 pm Globox was funnier than Murphy for me, can we agree on that at least :)
I personally cannot. This is the only Rayman game in which I don't hate Murfy :lol: Globox is funny too, but Murfy takes the cake here

Heh, if only it were that simple!

Personally there were only certain things in R3 that really were funny to me (and still are), everything else was just whatever (I never had words for certain scenes)

One of my favorite Globox quotes is this: "Rayman these disguises are getting a bit ridiculous I mean they're not even good, I recognized you right away!"

I see, so Modder hates the helpful Rayman 2 Murfy too, curious. Perhaps he wanted Ly to guide him instead? :mrgreen:

Well, you also have another way out… This forum is called Rayman PIRATE community after all :hinhinhin:
Alright, i’m just joking here, but i legit thought this site was about pirating Rayman games when i first saw it :lol:
..Anyways, personally, i like the humor in R3. Sure, there are some things that are kind of eh, but i don’t really pay attention to them, so..
And yeah, i feel like it’s pretty natural for R3 to have this kind of humor. A lot of media from early 00s were trying to be more “mature”, or something like that. A lot of adult animated shows were coming out, games had more “edge” to them (Conker immediately comes to mind, or Ratchet and Clank with those names :oops2:) and etc…

Fuck yeah man, keep spitting them facts! I feel like Billy West is even more overhyped than that dang Kendrick album when it came out in November! I really don’t find the over the top 4th wall breaks funny, especially when you can smell the reluctantness from the studio whenever Murfy talks. So yeah, TL;DR, I agree 100%

I'd never pirate anything unless I knew I could 100% trust it.

...I mean, what? Pirating? Geez, that's against the law! Only criminals would do that... :shock:

More Ly wouldn't hurt. Though Murfy is helpful, I just hate anything that slows me down, even by a little. All I need is a little dialogue box on the bottom to tell me what to do, instead of a cutscene :? (though this does happen in R2, sometimes it just stops you just to tell you something that really didn't need a cutscene :oops2:) Atleast it's not as bad as Legends where you're speeding through and Murfy slows you down just because... :boon:

Billy West I feel is more overhyped as Rayman from RTAS than he is as Murfy, at least from what I've seen. I personally do not see the appeal other than "Cah". :lol: His hand in voicing Murfy does sound good though, sounds just about how I'd think Murfy would sound.

Oh totally, Globox's personality was much more fleshed out in R3 and that version is definitely my headcanon!

The community’s opinion on RTAS is genuinely so weird. For almost the whole time I’ve been a rayman fan, I’ve just heard about how terrible the show is. Now, in the past year or so, everyone seems to love it and praise if for how good of a show it is. Could just be goomba fallacy though

It could've been great I guess if they were more determined to make it work, but my only memory of that show is that you see Razorbeard as a circus ringleader.

It's bad, but it's so bad that it's good. Or at least in my opinion it is :lol: I've only seen the pilot :oops2:
