Re: Lore thread

Raywiki I believe should include all interpretations of "Rayman's evil clone" under one article but still treat them like separate characters, as Raymesis and Shadow Ray physically appear in the same game as separate entities. That doesn't make them different characters. The Magician phys...

Re: Lore thread

It seems a bit silly to treat all of Rayman's evil duplicates as distinct characters. I'd just consolidate them all to one article, Dark Rayman, and discuss each manifestation in chronological order, leaving the character's nature up to the reader's interpretation. "It is unclear whether the Bu...

Re: Lore thread

I just saw a random YouTube comment from a year ago saying that Ancel has confirmed Origins is set "about a decade after Rayman 3". Is there any truth to that?

Re: Lore thread

these are the bountiful steer from which we can milk tons of fanatical discussion, each topic affecting another and creating even more windows for theorizing.

(Jesus, where did those five years go?) I've basically reversed my position on... everything. Tired of canon this and continuity that. I say it all happened. Rayman Junior, Rayman M, TV Party. Everything. Why not? It's all just a big crazy glorious dream, from Pink Plant Woods to the Living Dead Par...

Re: I Love Rayman Fan video contest via Ubi

Ancel has probably thought about his world he created more than any of us, because he obviously cared about his creations beyond just making "a kids' game". He obviously had a passion for his creations. Is he pretentious because of that? Actually, I don't get the sense that Ancel or the o...

Re: I Love Rayman Fan video contest via Ubi

Rayman 1. Not silly? You mean the game that has several bug eyed enemies that fly off the screen When defeated which is also accompanied with a slide whistle sound effect? The last world in which the main antagonist, along with many enemies that are effin' CLOWNS, reside in is a land made nothing o...

Dark Rayman was going to be the virus/glitch. Mr Dark was never involved, Spyroguy just mixed them up.

Re: Rayman Demos and Betas


Has this been posted before? Pretty interesting to see how they basically condensed the game down to four representative levels for the demo, complete with a reworked world map (and plenty of wrong names).

In all fairness, I'm kinda wondering if the multiverse idea would make a better headcanon, rather than trying to tie things together.
The games are literally a dream. There are no continuity errors, and there never can be.

Re: Unseen64 to detail new revelations about Rayman 4!

Thanks. You did make a couple of mistakes in your recap though - it's Dark Rayman who was going to be portrayed as a glitch in the game, not Mr Dark, and they guy doesn't actually say Rayman was ever going to be in the ZombiU Rabbids game (he just refers to them as "Rayman Rabbids").

Re: Unseen64 to detail new revelations about Rayman 4!

- According to the story explained (the guy has a hard time putting it to words) Rayman was supposed to be in some kind of video game hero training camp where he could interact with video game heroes from other Ubisoft games such as the Prince and Jade (what?) and these characters are being control...

Re: Doctor Who

Deep Breath deals too heavily with the fallout of the latest regeneration and the end of the previous era to work very well as a starting point. Madama Vastra, Jenny, Strax and the t-rex could all be offputtingly weird for a beginner too. The best starting point by far is The Eleventh Hour, which is...
