What an excellent speller you are! Maybe you could also spell out the longest word you know? :mrgreen:

I'm more curious why Edge never talks about Origins Globox as one of his husbands.

I remember how my class in Year 7 was amazed by how I could pronounce Deoxyreibonucleic Acid, don’t think I spelt it right but it’s my only real pride with stuff like that.

He meant why you never talk about him, if he’s featured in your sig.

Can someone explain to me how no one has noticed that Annetta has a Transatlantic accent?

Aside from Helena, I had no idea any of the other nymphs even had accents. Honestly, it's too hard for me to detect most of their voice accents (I can't tell if Holly has a southern accent, Edith a Mexican one, or Annetta a Transatlantic one), so I'm still not sure if the ones that other people have given them are true or not.

Annetta's accent is so strong. Like, compared to Betillas British accent, hers is clearly different. I compared it to Rarity from MLP, and their accents are almost identical.

I didn’t even notice they spoke in accents.

I tend to notice accents more than the average person since I’m a voice actor. We are keen and are able to identify accents pretty easily

I don't think a person needs to be a voice actor to notice accents. Even in Ireland, the accents vary wildly if you just travel a few kilometres. It's very obvious to me if someone sounds British or American also, they're extremely different accents.

I can definitely tell the difference between most accents in the British Isles, only real issue I believe is telling Irish and West Country accents apart. I can do most other countries, but I struggle with North American regional.

I agree but it’s still weird no one really noticed that Annetta has a unique accent?

I guess they all speak so quickly (and in Pig Latin :roll:) that it's hard to pick up on their accents. Even re-listening using the video below I had a tough time, although I know they can say more voice lines (longer ones) if you hang around when the Electoon bridges are rebuilt on the world maps…

Huh, I never pieced it together, but I actually can tell what you're talking about on the Pig Latin part. I am amused by this.

I do need to give Origins a full proper playthrough, especially since I've done so with Rayman 2 and 3. Maybe I can get Steo involved in this, hint hint wink wink nudge nudge. :mrgreen:

It had been years since I played Origins as well until recently just playing little bits to get the relic screenshots finished on RayWiki. Might be fun also of course. :mrgreen:

I need to replay Origins as well. I never got all the skull teeth to unlock the Land of the Livid Dead world.

I should replay Origins as well, just so I can keep procrastinating on finally playing Rayman 2. :proud:

Yeah I think honestly I should give it another playthrough soon too, I really enjoy the game.

Also really enjoy Rayman 2, I really like playing it on a Dreamcast. :hap:

Rayman 2 was amazing to play on the Dreamcast, I really enjoyed it a ton there. :mrgreen:

I suppose when I replay Origins, it may just be the version I have up on Steam.

One of these days I will get myself a Dreamcast. Multiple games I want from it aside from R2!

The Dreamcast looks like a very unique and innovative console, especially for 1998. Might get one sometime if I can get it cheap.
